Oh, no, I think based on other articles the horse died of other causes. But the consensus amongst people I know is that this was just fucked up animal torture on some level.
Like, I’m fine if the horse was also fine and seemed into skydiving. I just have zero evidence of that.
- Comment on What a wonderful world we live in! 1 day ago:
Someone please feel free to enlighten me, but my horse riding friends say this is pretty fucked up and not something the horse would ever get used to.
- Comment on Are shops in the US usually this run down looking? 3 days ago:
Yes, that’s actually better than most.
- Comment on Papa I'm scared 1 week ago:
Technically he wants to be a real boy? Doesn’t seem as horror as I first thought.
- Comment on In the U.S., are all voting booth areas required to have carbon monoxide detectors? 1 week ago:
Ohhhhh. Okay, yeah, so I worked for a data aggregation company for a time and there was absolutely an odd (personally identified) correlation between lead exposure areas of the US and heavily red voting.
- Comment on In the U.S., are all voting booth areas required to have carbon monoxide detectors? 1 week ago:
I’m super curious why you’re asking.
- Comment on Scientists have been studying remote work for four years and have reached a very clear conclusion: "Working from home makes us happier." 1 week ago:
My friend just lost a dream job they barely had for a week because the company went full RTO and they wanted him to relocate and he couldn’t.
Fuck RTO.
- Comment on Github keeps shoving copilot everywhere. 1 week ago:
I’m dubious ChatGPT was any better considering it backs Copilot. I’ve found ChatGPT to be pretty much garbage versus Anthropic’s Claude. Curious about your experience though.
- Comment on We'll have plenty of camps to have them sent to by then. 2 weeks ago:
Well, I’m not white so I may also get deported to El Salvador.

If we survive this, I absolutely plan to shame them into non-existence.

I’ll gladly donate to this cause as long as they understand who hurt them

- Comment on White House Tech Bros Are Killing What Made Them (and America) Wealthy 4 weeks ago:
Can’t wait for some indeterminate point in time in the future when they’re crying because they’re facing the consequences of their actions.
Hopefully it’s at gunpoint.
- Comment on Consumers make their voices heard as Microsoft's huge venture flatlines in popularity 4 weeks ago:
I agree with you that Copilot and Gemini are the worst, but why’d you keep going, lol. Jesus dude.
- Comment on Consumers make their voices heard as Microsoft's huge venture flatlines in popularity 4 weeks ago:
Of all the LLMs I’ve used for productivity assistance, Copilot is hands down, far and above, the worst. As far as I know, it’s leveraging ChatGPT APIs (correct me if I’m wrong), and even ChatGPT is better than Copilot (not by much).
Claude has really reigned supreme for my use cases, but I know that’s anecdotal.
- Comment on Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos Says Movie Theater Model Is ‘Outdated’: ‘Most of the Country’ Cannot ‘Walk to a Multiplex’ 4 weeks ago:
The closest theater to me doesn’t sell or allow alcohol.
It costs something like $14 for one ticket.
There are usually pissants talking during the whole movie.
The seats are terribly uncomfortable.
This is all before the cost of popcorn or anything.
Yeah, I’m definitely not going.

Guess I’ll cancel my free trial.

Which is honestly kind of freaky.
- Comment on 1994 white Kevin 5 weeks ago:
Honestly in some areas of town late at night, I would totally make use of a service like this…
…but I’d also expect the service be abused by people seeking people to harass.

I learned today that bees don’t have lungs.
- Comment on Are Nintendo's $80 online game prices a result of tariffs or is Nintendo just using them as an excuse to price gouge as corporations do? 1 month ago:
Based on what little I know that goes into video game development, $80 seems cheap - assuming no mtx.
But if it’s $80 + mtx? Fuck that.
- Comment on I'm just happy you thought it was funny, dear 2 months ago:
I love it.
- Comment on Battery tech really does move fast 2 months ago:
Yeah but Americans are stupid and thought a 1/3lb burger was smaller than a 1/4lb burger. I fully expect they’d think 5Ah is smaller than 1000mAh.

Keep in touch. I’m not doing amazing myself right now, but there is some upward light at the end of the tunnel and I feel like helping others when I can only makes sense.
- Comment on Thankfully I am not forced to be in earth forever. My shift on this planet only lasts 80 years. 2 months ago:
But seriously, if things are that rough, keep in touch. I’ll do what I can, while it might not be much, it won’t be nothing.
