Bwahaha, make me. And looking at your comment history, its not like you have anything valuable to say either, so consider stones, glass houses, etc.

Have you considered there’s a reason AI companies and their fans have attracted so much hate? Gosh, it couldn’t be anything they did or said, could it?

Vitriol is a natural human response to stupidity, injustice, and short-sightedness. I don’t owe you politeness because you said something stupid on the Internet.

I like both Jeff and Apple products, but this does seem a pretty ... odd ... thing to say within the context of his audience. A normal person wouldn't bat an eye but the kind of people watching Jeff Geerling videos will probably have some strong opinions about it

New comment by subjectsigma in "The U.K. Smoking Ban Is Illiberal"

subjectsigma — Sat, 25 Apr 2026 23:35:37 +0000

I am American, I have never visited Sweden but I have visited Norway. The taxes on normal everyday things like food were as high as 25% and everyone I talked to expressed interest in America, either visiting or living there. I only know one person who moved from America to a Nordic country (Denmark) and she complained that everyone was racist and that it took several months to get an appointment for a root canal, during that time she just had to live with severe pain. I have zero desire to live in any Nordic country.

> With health care being tax funded in regions, I dont want to pay for smokers bad health.

> 2nd - price hike on snacks, chips, nuts, chocolate, "pick n mix" candy, sugar candy

I love being proven right.

New comment by subjectsigma in "AI Resistance: some recent anti-AI stuff that’s worth discussing"

subjectsigma — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 13:04:30 +0000

Those people were always lying, it was always about power dynamics. People hated DRM and surveillance because they saw it as punching down. People now hate AI wielded by corpos because they see it as punching down. Extremely few (if any) people ever bought into the “cyber-utopia” thing and now the mask has completely come off, everyone knows the Internet is a tool for subjugation

Natural consequence of socialized medicine. If I’m paying for your healthcare then I (and by extension the state) get a say in basically every aspect of your life.

Time to ban alcohol, marijuana, Tylenol, fatty foods, sugar, candles, campfires, fireworks, food coloring, bicycles, playgrounds, cars, cell phones, and anything else that might be harmful

It is malicious, and you shouldn’t be downvoted for calling out someone who is so obviously arguing in bad faith.

There was never any security risk, the flight data was and is public information. You should be able to say “men are not women” and also repost public data. Stop pretending Elon cares about free speech.

This reply is so astoundingly oblivious that I’m convinced you’re a troll, and a shitty one at that. No human can genuinely be this dumb.

Your topmost comment is being downvoted because you’re a green account just making up bullshit with zero supporting evidence

New comment by subjectsigma in "Show HN: Brutalist Concrete Laptop Stand (2024)"

subjectsigma — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 14:24:06 +0000

My understanding of brutalism is that it’s an extreme interpretation of “function over form”. The most brutalist laptop stand would be a cardboard box turned upside down, not a slightly impractical block of concrete carefully manufactured to evoke a certain aesthetic.
