There’s a part of a highway near Denver where it’ll tell you to take a “slight right to stay on highway”, and there is literally no possible turn or off ramp there.

I think that this is making fun of the people who were upset at Ariel being black in the remake. The people this is making fun of don’t care about recasting race until it’s done from a white character to a black one. It’s pointing out hypocrisy.

I think this kinda thing is more in response to people who believe that autism/ADHD/neurodivergence in general is some new thing that never existed in the past. There’s a lot of historical behavior that could be explained.

School isn’t just learning the stuff in the classes. It’s the shared experience too. It’s the teachers holding you accountable for learning.

“Going to school” is a very different thing than just trying to learn on your own. Self motivation and time are a huge barrier for a lot of people. I think the OP was imagining being able to go to school every day and just take classes for free with other people also interested.

Almost all the airlines are doing that these days.

Until we can make crossing those lines painful for those companies, they’ll keep doing it. Unfortunately, I think convenience is always going to beat morality if you leave it to “voting with your dollar”, we need actual regulations from our governments to combat this shit.

It’s honestly a pretty fun game! It is Overwatch+Dota and the way they’ve done landing/farming with last hits and denies in a shooter is really interesting.

Team fights are fairly chaotic and I can’t tell what’s going on, and honestly there might be too much complexity, but the moment to moment gameplay is really solid. Movement and shooting feel great, combat is chunky and satisfying, and comebacks are semi common.

IDK if I have the desire to get into another MOBA like this, but this is unique enough to enjoy playing with friends for awhile.

It’s really great, isn’t it? I tried to get some friends into it but it seems like I’m the only one who enjoys rhythm games. I really like The Magician I think

Isn’t that the status quo? I guess it’s not really fathers to daughters, but most women I know went through some amount of “here’s how to be a good wife” lessons from their mothers or family. I think women get a lot of “traditional gender roles” training that’s mostly about being caretakers.

Usually people putting forth this kinda “women should learn how to care for their man” attitude are coming from a conservative “traditional family values” position.

Really, we should be teaching people how to ask about and learn the needs of their partner, and how to determine your own needs and communicate those to your partner. Basic emotional intelligence stuff. It doesn’t have to be gendered at all.

I love how lush and vibrant it looks. As a tall person, I hate that it looks impossible to actually walk down the sidewalk.

So what’s the point of posting it? If it’s so obvious and all that you really need to know, why are so many people still fat?

The unsaid part of “it’s simple, it’s just calories in calories out” is the implied “and people who don’t get this are just lazy/dumb/it’s a moral failing.” Maybe this isn’t what you are intending, but it is kinda at the root of a lot of hate that fat people get.

The discussion around weight is changing because we’re starting to look into and understand the psychological components of weight, IN ADDITION TO the actual phsysiological processes of weight loss. Lots of “normal” day to day tips and “common sense” is being investigated and debunked. Shit is hard and complicated. Food is being engineered to be addictive. Some people literally don’t have easy access to healthy food.

The US version was severely bungled, especially in the cutting of the runtime to a 30 minute timeslot from 60. They made that decision AFTER filming it, so they edited down full episodes to half their length.

I think everyone agrees that Reggie Watts was not a great choice for the Taskmaster, but I do think a US version could work with the right group. It has to find it’s own voice though, and be given room to grow, which is hard for US TV.

The Switch controllers connect via Bluetooth and can be paired with a computer no problem. Not sure why these would be different

Maybe, but to me it’s voice chat + matchmaking.

I used to play on a few Day of Defeat: Source servers, and I met a ton of great online friends there. That’s because they were dedicated and moderated servers that kicked and banned people for being assholes, in or out of voice chat.

But… If you’re confident that you’re never going to see the people in your match again, it’s way easier to be assholes to them.

I hit a deer while listening to the band Deerhunter. Was a bit surreal.

It works a bit better if you put a little bit of wood glue on the tip of each toothpick before driving it into the hole. Definitely a great trick!

Somebody convince me I’m wrong.

There is no reason to display “100%” in your UI for more than a single second. Either show 99% and then finish, or show 100% only when you are ACTUALLY done and only show it for a little.

If you’re still doing ANYTHING AT ALL don’t say you’re 100% complete. How is it still like this

It’s similar to confirmation bias, but I think that’s the wrong name for the phenomenon. Confirmation bias is when we don’t question things that align with our world view and reject things that don’t align with it. It’s certainly related to a desire for a sense of superiority, but there is something about that specific rush of neurotransmitters.

Reno is an awesome town now, you should check it out.

Isn’t the game locked to 60?
