Agreed on all points. If I was breaking down boxes often I would absolutely be using solely boxcutters for them and nothing else.


Box cutters, none at the moment (though I’ve had up to 3 at once, 1 normal one and 2 of those folding types with the 1-1.5inch long changeable blades you know the type.)

Knives in general that I can and would use to cut boxes (not counting kitchen knives): 4 multitools, 5 folding/locking knives.


Looks like someone facefucked a mouldy turnip with a 2x4 and left it outside 1 more week, but different strokes and all.


Boot drive is 1TB. Currently 176GB free with 21 games installed (BG3 is definitely the largest lol) and all my other non-gaming stuff.

Also have a combined 30TB in external HDD’s (with about 1TB free) as my PC is also a Plex server, but that’s not game related (well cept roms lol).



In fairness, they would have been absolutely stupid to have not done a 100% prewritten, teleprompted PR riddled pre-written response given the situation. Linus sitting down in front of a camera and just letting his mind do Linus things isn’t gonna help anyone lol.


No. That’s what the instance block will do when we get it. Right now with the domain block, the point of it is for example, say you hate imgur.com. Why? Doesn’t matter, you just do. You can block the imgur domain so nothing from imgur, regardless of where it’s posted, will appear in your feed on kbin. If I post a picture linked from imgur on m/gaming, you won’t see it when you browse that magazine.

If you try to block an instance with that same method, posts and comments still come through fine. I’ve blocked a bunch of European instances due to language issues but the posts still sometimes comes through regardless (and many other people have commented saying the same over the last month, hence why we’ll be getting a proper instance block soonish).


(Tagging @Maestro for visibility)

That’s because we don’t have Instance blocking on kbin. We have domain blocking, which is not the same thing nor does it provide the same function.

Instance blocking is supposed to be coming soon however according to comments on codebase (no idea on an ETA).




lots of FUCKSPEZ already

I am contributing healthily to those lol.


Jokes on them either way, been on Reddit for 12 years and I haven’t bought a fuckin’ award or coin or nft or dingle-dangle or bingle-bongle from Reddit yet and that ain’t changing today lol


1056h in Team Fortress 2, which is the highest I can verify at least. I’m sure I’ve put more time in Sims 4 over the decade but with multiple installs of pirated copies I have no way to verify that lol


When I paste the link to a comment into pixelfed it just sits and spins on its thumb so things could just be a bit gimpy.



Ok straight up how did you comment from it? I tried with mine before making my comment (cause I was gonna do it from pixelfed like you, but I couldn’t figure out in the UI how to get to this convo, just a person.

Edit: I literally just made an account last night lol


Plus I can follow all of you from all those instances, over on pixelfed (the Instagram analogue), thought I have zero idea how things federate in that direction as I haven’t used pixelfed much yet.

Dozens of websites all speaking one language behind the scenes!


instead I want to see posts that fit my interests, regardless of who made them.

Follow hashtags then? I mean I’m following a good 40 or so people so far, largely newsy type things, but I’ve followed dozens and dozens of different hashtags so whatever gets posted with them pops up in my feed.

No need to go following Generic Mastodon User #374645 Who Likes Transformers™ when I can just follow #transformers to see my dumb robo pics lol


Not sure if there’s an addon or anything, but there’s no native way to do this that I’ve seen.
