We used to have that adage about how anonymity made people worse on the internet. It always made me feel uneasy. We hit 2025, and I was dismayed to find it was wrong - the internet was a warning bell for how evil the average person is.

Immich is a bit of a heavyweight solution, but it’s what I ended up using.

Why would enemies of America hate Trump, when he’s helping them destroy it?

“Oh! Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply they were x-ray. That’d be so invasive, not to mention kinda sci-fi. I just used an AI to project the appearance of you in your bra, based on recorded purchases and Flock camera data, then displayed it on my glasses. Isn’t technology neat and helpful?”

Would Steam approve Journalist Beheading Simulator, or will they need to make their own store app to sell it?

Actually, nobody is doing the physical labor so that the company can present itself as low cost for future investors.

I might be a unique form of grump: I recognize we get gypped by modern streaming services, but I still appreciate that the internet gave us greater breadth of choice than old cable options.

There’s indie and foreign streaming services that cost a lot less than the Netflix oligopoly, yet people never even seem to look for those, and just turn to piracy as their form of protest. “I can’t live without this show, and so I’ll give these services my vote of confidence, as well as political ammunition to enact higher levels of internet traffic spying!” What a genius self-serving plan.

Every accusation is a confession.

Game:

This skill has a 50% chance to deal a critical hit, or completely miss!

“You mean, critical hits which deal something like 30% extra damage?”

I watched MST3K recently (a show that clearly denotes when classic network commercials would come on)

They mentioned commercials AFTER YouTube had already shown a 1 minute ad break.

We are late for a competitor.

Nice meme! Downvoted for the asterisk, pussy. (Yes, spelt with a U, not a *)

It upsets me that in working with webpages, I regularly look at “all” the network traffic going to a website - and clearly Microsoft’s GUID is hiding somewhere it won’t even show.

I’m really good at Blue Prince, but I actually practiced by mashing the Draw 10x buttons in Gacha games.

Haven’t played Chaos Head, but I have hated how much Japanese writing feels like children that never grew up trying to present “maturity” through pure shock value (gore, sadism).

Can’t forget the mystical phlebotinum that is Despair in the Danganronpa games (the odd hypnotic zombie force, not the emotion)

I generally enjoyed the game, But found myself disappointed by the story.

I tried both Dark Souls 2, Dark Souls 1, and even Bloodborne. All felt shit and I literally couldn’t even find achievable goals from any of their starting areas.

I’ve played (imo) much better Soulslike games all the way through, like Tunic, Stellar Blade, and Another Crab’s Treasure. But FromSoft, ironically, seems to make the worst of them.

My Friendly Neighborhood.

Basically a Resident Evil game; BUT, you get far, far less ammo. The enemies attack via insta-grabs with no discernible lunge. They get back up from falling anytime you leave the room, unless you consume a duct tape item to keep them down.

I eventually realized I just wasn’t having fun by avoiding enemies every room. On top of that, the game has no music and makes you listen to psychotic muppets in the background in every room.

I have a weird dichotomy. I dislike excess meat consumption, and I don’t like guns. But, I’m kind of okay with hunting deer. They’re an excess pest, and many hunters are more responsible gun owners using form factors designed for hunting, not urban murders.

Right, but this is a generation that thought the EPA is a terrorist organization. Fresh air is fucking evil.
