  • Yeah but at least the voters made a selfless act of sacrifice by voting to end the genocide in Gaza so they can instead focus genocide against American citizens that have the wrong skin color or the wrong ideology. It’s a good thing the fascists we voted in didn’t, you know, NOT do anything about Gaza like anyone with half a brain cell could have predicted.

    Anyone that knowingly voted to harm themselves, their friends and family instead of Gaza like it was a good trade is just as bad as the fascists themselves.






  • My brother got a phd and works a shitty government job because that’s basically his only option. He became a severe alcoholic, had a stroke a few years later and now worships maga and Elon. Fuck the entire war on marijuana ideology and everyone that supports it. I’m glad your life and your loved ones aren’t getting fucked very hard by it. The fact that at least some people are winning in spite of it all is good at least.

    If you know of an industry where I can use my 2 tech degrees to do anything besides pass thc drug tests I’d love to hear it.


  • In what universe did they lose the war on drugs? Marijuana never got rescheduled. People still get their lives ruined over it. It’s impossible to consume cannabis and be gainfully employed at the same time in the US and a sickening majority of people STILL believe this is how things should be. Corporations collude together to make sure they’re all using the exact same drug testing procedures so that really valuable people can’t just decide to go somewhere that treats them better. Yet they do nothing to fight with or systematically harm people who consume alcohol when off duty or come into work hungover.

    All the states with lower costs of living are still allowed to put people in jail for possession. And people fight to keep it this way. They made Florida ballot initiatives need a 60% to pass just to defeat the recent marijuana amendment and NO ONE FUCKING CARED. This is far from “losing” the war on drugs.


  • I will never understand the obsession around computer-crashingly good graphics. They push your temps to the max and computer components don’t start throttling themselves until the temps are a little too high so that your shit will stop working sooner so you have to buy a new gpu sooner. Why can’t they let us control the thermal throttling temp, huh? Fuck that 99 degree celsius shit. “99c is acceptable temps for laptops and gpus” my ass.

    Pixel art isn’t a necessarily a positive selling point to me but if the game is good and the graphics are good enough to be able to tell what’s going on without having to get high on drugs first, then its fine by me. Ps2 or xbox 360 era 3d graphics are the sweet spot though. I’m glad they finally added actual graphics to Dwarf Fortress, it’s actually playable now. If the msdos installation process has better graphics then a game then that’s pushing things little too far imho.




  • I just hate how neurotypicals will often make decisions that make their lives harder or worse when they had better choices, and then get mad when I refuse to accept the same terms. It’s like yeah, things are shitty for YOU because YOU made those choices because YOU thought the pros outweighed the cons. That doesn’t make me a worthless piece of shit for saying no.

    i.e. salaried coworker choosing to work 6 days a week “because there’s no other choice/way to get everything done”, getting mad when I refuse to also work the same 56 hours a week and being like “Well I DO it all the time, why cant you?”.

    Bitch. If there is even a remote chance that I will have to work a 6th day due to not getting things done, I’ll get my shit done by any means necessary and work longer days 5 days a week if its going to come to that. But I need my 2 fucking days off.

    At best this is just neurotypical quirkiness, at worst it’s organized bullying. I think its usually a mixture of both depending on the situation.


  • I don’t understand why people leave their sex toys in the shower. One time when I was a teenager I was masturbating in the shower and accidentally got cum on my sister’s dildo. I had to scrub that thing with all the soaps, bleach, toilet cleaner and just everything soap related I could get without anyone finding out. I guess I got lucky because no one ever found out and she didn’t mysteriously get pregnant afterwards.


  • Installing arch without archinstall is way too much fucking work. I’d much rather spend time fixing the 10% greater likelihood of encountering issues post install than doing all that fucking bullshit manually. The command line is better for a lot of things but configuring partitions and mount points is not one of them. I demand a fuckin gui for that stuff.


  • How. Fucking. DARE OP use AI instead of spending hundreds of dollars commissioning an artist just to make a shitpost on the internet during a difficult economic time where everyone is on the brink of homelessness due to rigged costs of living. People like OP are everything that’s wrong with society. Not Trump, not conservatives taking away what few rights we still have, not corporations colluding with each other to make sure they’re all, in unison, treating their employees as badly as possible, no, OP is the root of the problem. We might as well rename the San Andreas fault to Rodneyck’s fault.

    Wow I would never admit “recreational” drug use of any kind to any medical professional. Many years ago I admitted to smoking marijuana to my doctor and it turned into a major catastrophe. They threatened to report me to law enforcement for using illegal drugs and kept extorting me with bogus bills for months afterwards. I never trusted any medical professional again. Fuck the bible belt.


  • As long as they are becoming a dictator to enforce an ideology I believe in, absolutely. I’d definitely seize this opportunity to go after my enemies as well. The “golden rule” is treat others how you want to be treated and I’m sick and tired of being a punching bag, so it’s only fair.

    The time to be nice about the state of our broken society ended a long time ago. The enemy gives no quarter and they won’t stop until we’re all slaves working for less than basic needs in return. If I got my way via S/O proxy dictatorship, life is going to massively improve for the average person anyhow.

    If they were becoming a fascist, what else would I do, execute a double cross, steal some nukes and wreck havoc? I’d try to manipulate them into letting me life an easy life first but if they actually expected me to live like a evangelical conservative idiot, that ain’t gonna happen so cowabunga it is.


  • The Windows file explorer is so goddamned inefficient it’s astounding. For example if you have a directory open and you need to open a second window with the parent directory and put it right next to the current one, it takes less than 2 seconds to set that up with Nemo and it could probably be faster if I actually used a tiling window manager.

    The same situation, I timed it, takes TWELVE (12) seconds to accomplish in Windows 10, even with a dedicated gaming gpu and drivers which avoids all the stupid lag when managing open windows and clicking on stuff. How the FUCK do people effectively do ANYTHING on windows involving files? It’s mind boggling to think Windows is the preferred OS for game development, a process where you do this type of thing CONSTANTLY. Fuck.

    Does Microsoft even do their own software development on Windows? Even a well-tuned Linux file manager is still reasonably difficult and mentally taxing when you have to do a lot of file management with ADHD but Windows is on an entire different plane of shittiness.


  • GUYS. Linux is stupid because there’s no way to get LEGO Star Wars Skywalker Saga NPC Spawner mod to work. Maybe it fails because there isn’t a way to get DirectX SDK installed in protontricks but some mods work without this anyway. I’m going to go back to Windows Vista as GOD intended. Or maybe Windows Longhorn.

    Thanks in advance.
