  • 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.

  • holy fucking shit. I once programmed a mouse driver for an 8 bit computer with 32kb of ram. I don't remember the exact size of the compiled driver but it was under 1kb.

    Today's tech companies probably couldn't even figure out a way to make a hello world in python without it needing 100gb of storage, an Intel Core9/AMD Ryzen 7000 or better, an internet connection and an online user account.

  • 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.

  • Looking forward to the federal thc hemp ban. Then I can grow weed for huge profit margins, quit my real job, and actually sit around and play video games without giving anything back to society all day like he's accusing us all of doing. Wish they'd make alcohol illegal too. We have enough dipshits in congress for this to happen after they do all this horrible stuff and then get angry when non of it accomplishes what they think it will accomplish. Moonshine is even easier to mass produce than weed and like 4000% easier to get away with.

  • There kind of.. isn't. I've been battling heat with extreme prejudice my entire life. MAYBE the closest thing to a solution is to drink lots of ice water and then hopefully you're not one of those people who can't sleep if its hot (i am).

    Try to "store" as much "cold" as possible. i.e. if you have a half working a/c unit, run it at 100% at night and once the temperatures get as low as they're going to get, close all the windows, cover the windows, unplug fridge or whatever is producing heat you can afford to shut down and maybe if you're lucky it will be around 1 or 2 pm before it heats up to utter bullshit temperatures.

    If you have a way to get unlimited free ice (IMPORTANT: and NOT from the fridge in the living space you are trying to cool), you can use that to cool things down in the evening when everything is the hottest. If you have to buy the ice, just buy a ac unit because it will pay for itself in no time. And if you're doing this because you can't afford the electricity, maybe see about wiring up a solar panel and battery which, again, will pay for itself if you could've afforded to literally buy bags of ice every day. And if you're doing this to protect the environment, get a ac unit that doesn't contain ozone-layer destroying coolant (i.e. most of them). Buying ice for cooling is incredibly inefficient.

    You can also take the ice-based cooling strategy further. Get a bucket. A fan. A big radiator (you need quantity(sq area) not quality, get a shitty heater core one and not a pc watercooling one). A pc watercooling pump. Some tubing, along with whatever barb fittings and pipe clamps you need. Make it so that the radiator is sitting in front of a fan while having water from the bucket being pumped through it. Add your ice to the bucket. This system will dump the "cold" from the ice into the room as quickly as possible, MUCH quicker than just setting the ice in front of a fan to melt by itself. If you actually have a truly unlimited source of ice this will provide nearly the same amount of cooling (while the ice is fresh at least) as an actual window ac unit. I do this irl sometimes and usually keep one mostly set up and ready to go just in case my a/c stops working.

    It's going to take time to find a cheap or free radiator if you're living like this for financial reasons but bending some copper tubing around the fan also works decently. If you buy it at the hardware store its likely going to come coiled up in a box and already in the perfect shape for this.

    At a certain point, obtaining the amount of ice you need to maintain this becomes a problem. If you REALLY don't want to buy an ac unit at this point as maybe some kind of personal challenge or whatever, its time to science the shit out of it. Get a refrigerator. Put it outside, as leaving it inside will dump heat into the room defeating the purpose. Mod a bucket into the fridge and run 2 tubes out of it: an input and an output. Run this tubing into your living space somehow and into the radiator and the fan. You could alternatively put the fridge inside and find a way to attach a duct to the back of it to vent air outside which is may be more convenient depending on your living situation. Congratulations. You've built an a/c unit without technically actually building an a/c unit. Maybe in some countries this helps for tax purposes. I've never tried going this far with it before saying fuck it and getting an a/c unit so post pics if you do.

  • Frankly, I agree. I just want health insurance, weed to be legal and I want for employers to be stripped of some of the freedoms they are abusing to destroy the economy and this country as a whole. I don't give a fuck who they bomb in the middle east in exchange for it. I just want to be able to live my life. Too bad not enough people voted blue no matter who.

  • at first I read Jonathan as "Johnson" and for a split moment in time I was filled with hope that it would be "Mike Johnson" but nope. Now I feel like the guy in that old Russian joke about checking the newspaper headline every day for an obituary.

  • I fucking hate these kinds of questions. D is the CORRECT answer because TECHNICALLY html is a markup language and not a programming language but the average person irl will just call you a dipshit for trying to explain that. If this were a question on a shitty academic exam, its going to be a 50/50 toss up on which will get counted as correct because the Autograder Bot Knows All(TM) but you better not fucking use AI to get your low effort AI-generated homework done quicker because fuck you.

  • I kind of wonder this sometimes too. Maybe not from an organ harvesting standpoint but enslavement. If I were captured/kidnapped and became a sex slave or a scam call center slave or something, my #1 goal would be to escape and if that's not possible, go on a violent rampage and murder as many of my abusers as possible before they kill me (they'd just kill me when I outlive my usefulness regardless) and if that's not possible, the s-word, as a last resort. Does this type of thing happen more often than they make it sound? Perhaps they are really efficient at going after the families of victims that don't fully submit which keeps victims in check? Maybe victims are kept in holocaust-like conditions so they aren't physically capable of anything in the first place, but then they wouldn't be capable of work, so idk.

    Human trafficking disturbs me enough that I try not to think about it.

  • be careful with this one because the types of people this applies to will just twist its meaning into "people need to own less/nothing. Minimum wage is too high. The Bible says having enough money to survive is bad"

    I can't believe this is a real article. Just wow.
