I’m also gk99@kbin.social and gk99@mastodon.world

I don’t keep an ATM in my bedroom, unfortunately.

Only time I have cash for tipping is when I get tipped.


I kinda miss when games had wacky version differences. While there was usually one definitive version compared to the rest, having a brand new experience to play by simply buying the same game elsewhere was actually nice to have in some cases.

Nowadays it’s just “oh, you bought Skyrim on Switch? Here’s some Legend of Zelda armor” and “Depending on which platform you’re playing HITMAN 3 (a singleplayer game) on, you get a suit with a differently colored undershirt!”


Fortunately, I hate videocalls and have no reason to use them, so if my friend videocalled me I’d ask what the fuck they were doing and immediately be suspicious.


Who needs lobbying when you can just collect blackmail data on politicians because they willingly install your app?


When I’m at home sitting around thousands of dollars of gaming hardware, I’m going to use that.

When I’m out and about with less processing power, then I retro game.


They really paid $8 million to reinvent something that already exists. Like I’m using it right now to talk shit about Bluesky.


I’d argue reddit lost their identity days ago. Several iconic communities and features died with the API slaughter. Now it’s just another link aggregator without the things that made reddit unique.


Literally just bought an all-in-one copier/scanner/color laser printer for $300 on the dot the other day from Brother directly, so no, it seems like there are plenty of reasonably-priced laser printers. I’ll take that over $30 every time I want to print something because the ink cart dried up.


I’ve heard that Bing is a good alternate, even though its a Microsoft service.

It’s gotten a lot better recently, though sometimes I do still have to switch to Google to find stuff. I don’t care that much about my search engine privacy, so I mainly use this because Microsoft Rewards nets me giftcards and such just from searching.

But privacy-conscious people should stay the hell away.


For all their complaining about safe spaces, they’re the ones who seemingly need it the most.

Probably because reality is left-leaning.
