I do like some intellectual stimulation and will hold contrarian views just to test the waters of my own understanding or to test yours. I don't always believe the things I say online. I want you, AND me to understand the world around us better.

  • Reddit gets ready for IPO, setting a top valuation of $6.4 billion

    Jump

  • Yes it does. Hammers are like $0.20 to make, and sell for like $6. And they don't cost millions to keep working either. This isn't the example you think it is, hahaha.

  • Yes, heat pumps slash emissions even if powered by a dirty grid | Installing a heat pump now is better for the climate, even on U.S. electricity generated mostly by fossil fuels. Here’s why

    Jump

  • Heat Pumps are just Air Conditioners with a reversing valve. They're not some special magic.

  • What VPN would you recommend for torrenting?

    Jump

  • If you choose 'build your own' plan, you can get it for $1/mo - and since I just got symmetrical fiber in my area, my internet went from $130/mo to $60...I figured I could "splurge"...

  • Rooster Teeth Is Shutting Down After 21 Years

    Jump

  • Length truly does matter a ton. Every single episode I was left with a feeling of "wait...THAT'S IT?!". And someone mentioned elsewhere, and something I forgot to account for: We lost Monty Oum. I really wish he had written down somewhere how he wanted the show to progress.

    Jump

  • They really went down the fucking rabbit hole here. Seriously, you should brace yourself for what you're about to encounter...

  • Rooster Teeth Is Shutting Down After 21 Years

    Jump

  • Good point, I forgot that we lost him. Holy shit that was in 2015...I could have sworn it happened in 2020.

  • NSFW

    😬 😂

    Jump

  • Now this is a shitpost. :D

  • Rooster Teeth Is Shutting Down After 21 Years

    Jump

  • Episode 115 was 15 minutes. 15 minutes is not normal episode length. 24 minutes is.

    In all of their seasons, only like 6 episodes ever reached that length; and they were usually the season finale. A season-fucking-finale...barely making standard episode length...

  • If Trump is reelected, Americans are planning to flee in droves

    Jump

  • At the very least, I'm gonna get my family out of this hell-hole that is Florida. I'm trying to stay in order to convince as many republicans to split their vote as I can though.

    I know a lot of dumb-shit brain washed people that otherwise mean well, but have become oblivious to the hole they've found themselves in. So I have a tendency to befriend them and tell them that the only way we're gonna get any change is if they vote third party. Convincing them to vote Biden is a step too far for most, so I'm just trying to disrupt the cheeto as much as I can locally. And of course my family is voting blue down the whole ticket.

  • Turns out, people don't like 7-minute "episodes" for RWBY that take years to come out between them. Who would have thought?! Stupid ass studio wasted so much god damn potential...

  • What are your favorite Zelda characters from across the series?

    Jump

  • Damn, good call! You've got me on that one!

  • What are your favorite Zelda characters from across the series?

    Jump

  • I personally like Zelda. She's kinda kept the franchise going after all this time ya know... and she's the only one that's in ALL of them. That link guy is just a side-character.

  • Removed

    Pissing in Stainless Steel Sinks is Better than Ceramic BECAUSE of the Audible Report.

    Jump

  • Don't cut yourself with all that edge.

  • US Supreme Court ruling in Trump ballot case showed unanimity, not unity

    Jump

  • Finally someone who gets it. It's not that we don't want these things, it's just that we're powerless to enact change. Even violence doesn't solve anything - because the one thing we have that might be able to enact some change, usually just ends up pushing more totalitarian regimes because then they can use 'violence' as an excuse to remove even more rights.

    Short of everyone refusing to do anything starting tomorrow morning, until proper teeth are sunk into the corporate elite, then nothing will happen.

    And don't get me started about "start at the local level!" -- I have worked hard at the local level to stop changes I see happening, had hundreds of people show up to voice their concerns only to have shit constantly go ahead anyways because of county commissioners, etc.

    The system is corrupt. Necrotic. It is rotten to the core.

  • Suyu, a potential replacement for Yuzu

    Jump

  • The two I've seen so far are "Nuzu" and Suyu" - if Suyu has the proper structure set up so that Nintendo can't get at them, I think that's the name I'd prefer; but otherwise it just feels like people looking to get some cheap fame.

    If either of these projects has an owner with a history of contributing to the Yuzu project, I think that's the one that'll succeed.

  • I've made a full archive of Yuzu

    Jump

  • As soon as it gets done downloading, I'll make sure it's set to seed for a couple of weeks. A few good forks are starting to spring up as of late, so I don't think this will be needed in the long run.

  • Steam hits a new record of over 34 million concurrent users

    Jump

  • There's been some real bangers lately, Helldivers 2, Palworld, BG3, Enshrouded, etc. It's not surprising.

  • US Blocks Security Council Statement Condemning IDF Killing of Gazans Seeking Aid

    Jump

  • So you're voting for Trump this go around, thanks for making that public. I'll just go ahead and note that here.

  • Conservatives Plan to Ban Abortion and Cut LGBT Rights Starting Next January

    Jump

  • They're all over the fucking place here. It's wild. They're almost for certain foreign cointelpro.
