Show off. I have 12 GB of DDR3, and a swap partition on spinning rust.

“I’m so used to getting fucked by Chrome and Edge that I just feel like something’s missing if I don’t.”

Wasn’t “woke” originally a good term until right wing screechers took it over at an insult? They do that a lot, every time some positive phrase or idea starts to gain traction. Seems intentional.

Oh. Makes sense. To be honest, I really didn’t care enough to bother checking their profile or any other comments. Just saw the response today and wanted to try and offer some sort of olive branch or something. idk

So, let me unpack what happened, from my point of view. I’m not complaining or anything, just pointing out how it seemed from my end.

I made a comment that I personally didn’t like the show because of how many times people around kept saying I was like the main character.

You replied directly to me implying that nerds should like the show because it normalizes dating them. (Which I agree is a good thing.)

I replied to say that doesn’t apply to me, and I’m not sure why it was relevant to my comment.

Finally, you left a comment to call me names.

Do you see how that entire interaction makes no sense from my side of things? I said that I didn’t like a show, and you inserted yourself into the conversation to complain that hot women should want to date me because of the show. Then, when I said that had nothing to do with what I was saying, you insulted me.

So, like, why?

…I don’t want to date women, so I know know how that’s relevant.

“It’s so funny! Sheldon reminds me of you!”

Yeah, never watched it, but heard this enough to hate the show with a passion.

Sitcom of chimps in the big city running a shady laundromat.

For those who don’t know, In the US, the two political parties basically switched sides at one point. I only skimmed, but here’s an article about it:

But I’d rather look at what modern people are doing and saying, than muse about what older generations would have wanted or done.

Cut to a younger me looking at HDDs in Walmart, and wondering why the fuck they were using much higher numbers than what the drive actually had. That’s when I learned the difference, and started grow my hate for advertising bullshit.

I’m not seeing the downside here.

“Bless your soul.”

That’s true. The reason why I suggested it is because the other person said they know nothing about Linux, have barely used a terminal before, and just wanted to try a certain distro. I thought this website would be a quick and easy way for them to play around a little bit to scratch that itch and see if they wanted to dive deeper into things.

Potluck with friends: Great!

Potluck with strangers: Disgusting!

Now I hear it spoken like:

Oh, fer fhucs sayk!

Wasn’t there a mission in one of the Armored Core games where you sank shit like that?

We need mecha.

This may or may not help, but maybe give this a look.

One of my favorite moments like this was a Reddit thread where some account was pretending to be human and arguing with people in favor of the CEO’s actions during The Purge. Then one person asked it a question about making some dangerous thing or other, and it starting replying with things like “As an AI model, I cannot explain how to do that.” and stuff. It was great.

(I may or may not have asked ChatGPT to write that.)
