A lot of things.
- Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash 1 day ago:
Cloud tech is still bad, but even that wasn’t pushed as hard as AI is being pushed.
The Cloud Is Just Someone Else’s Computer
You’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy.
- Comment on Is "dark humor" generally acceptable or is it just my parents/culture more sensitive towards jokes? 1 week ago:
Your parents aren’t sensitive to dark humor. They’re superstitious.
Also, anything other than cleaning the port contacts in the charger is a waste of time.

I don’t have kids, but if I did, I sure as fuck wouldn’t raise them to join the military. I saw though that shit after 9/11.

She did way more then just getting a tan.

It’s not that hard to make and use PPE for the miners. Whether or not it’s enforced is another question, but with how easy asbestos seem to be, they probably are.

You can tell from the background that the lighting isn’t as bright. It doesn’t mean it was photoshopped and doesn’t mean it was dishonest.

- Comment on Incel propaganda in my music app 2 weeks ago:
Some of us are bombarded by right wing propaganda off the internet. When I come home, I don’t want to be bombarded by it online. You want to know what radicalized me? Being “conservative presenting” and getting to hear what republicans really think when there’s not a minority or “liberal” in the room. None of them have a single idea of their own and just revel in cruelty. That’s what they think offline and when they think they’re in “good company.” Online, they just engage in bad faith arguments and it gets tiring counting them constantly.

They just want employees shackled by student loan debts.
- Comment on EA invents new microtransaction nightmare as it breaks paywall promise on Skate: rent a playable area for 24 hours or buy a premium pass, bucko 2 weeks ago:
I shifted to that view a long time ago. I have a selection of “classics” I play on rotation and I add a few indies or modern ports every now and then.
The multiplay scene went in a direction I don’t intend to follow. Some old friends are thinking about hosting a retro lan party, but I’m going to make it clear that I’m walking if they try sneaking in any modern shit.

-
If the DLC is permanently owned and pays to the artists who made the map, that’s fine.
-
Even if it is “permanently”, but tied to a server that could be shutdown, it’s not permanently owned. Fuck that
-
If the DLC isn’t permanently owned, but “rented”, that profit only goes to the executives that probably fired the artists. Fuck that.

I don’t know why EA would be relevant to anyone for the past 20+ years, but here we are.

The lesson of the Trolley Problem is that you need to start thinking about your options before it gets to that point.

- Comment on W for Uncle Ted 3 weeks ago:
I was wondering why his face looked familiar. He was featured on Big Thinkers.
I’ll rewatch it later, but the only thing I remember about him was that he learned how to use his other hand as his primary after the mail bomb blew up his dominate one. Probably the only reason he had an episode at all was the bombing.

Ratchet & Clank had it’s first three games released in three years. Same graphics and no one cared.

With how Facebook forces real names, the idea that being anonymous has any influence where or not someone is a fuckwad had been debunked.

The Olsen’s Twins 18 Count Down websites were a thing.
Not just random websites any creep could make, but something mainstream TV talked about too.
More obscure, but Greg Kelly "complimenting an underaged worker for her bathing suit. He would later be fired. He’s on Newsmax now.

It’s was weird hearing the “debates” about where or not men should still open doors for women in an equal society when the obvious solution was for everyone to hold doors open for everyone else. Are you at the door first? Hold it open. Is the other person’s hands full? Hold it open.
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
I’m just happy that around me, everyone just holds doors for everyone else, regardless of gender. Guys hold open doors for guys. Girls hold open doors for guys. It’s not weird.
