Reply to I believe, if you do not wear a mask in indoor public spaces, you should face jail time by flabberghaster

i still wear a mask when i go out because it enables me to look at reflective surfaces
(i'm lucky that i don't suffer from jaw problems or even ear problems with well-made masks, wearing it for a long time)

i live in a physically and socially cramped space (higher danger of transmission!) but coming into close contact with tens of people everyday, who smile at you and are generally nice to you at no cost, while having the "everyone else is a selfish asshole" mindset, is just psychologically untenable

Reply to Advice for time traveling to medieval Europe by hollyhoppet

really good video; though i'm not really interested in medieval european history ('cuz i'm not a nerd) i somehow sat through the whole thing.

there's something captivating about the stream-of-consciousness lots-of-backtracking delivery. somehow for me it's easier to pay attention to than the slickly scripted stuff (idk though maybe i've been watching mediocre scripted stuff i'm not a really good judge of stuff)

Reply to winamp. it really whips the llama's ass by winter

i like foobar2000 and mpc-hc but yeah they do look pretty utilitarian don't they
(though mpc has looked like that since forever anyway)
(you can also make foobar2000 look cool god knows there's hundreds of skins and whatnot but i think the spirit of the post is that it's not cool by default and whatnot)
(also actually a lot of the more popular foobar skins are "clean" ones so yeah hmmm)
