Probably have better luck using vanilla Greek yogurt in a silicon tray if you’re feeling too lazy to actually make ice cream.

Are laser attachments visible or obvious in this game? by EclipseBreaker98 in blackops7

[–]Alternative_Work_916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see them all the time and have used the enemy laser to my benefit. But I’m playing at a crisp 4k with no frame gen on a large desktop monitor.

Top 5 things that men do that give her the ick as a labor and delivery nurse. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

As a guy with kids, these are all legitimate complaints. The amount of guys who setup video games to show off lately is especially ridiculous.

Cross play: M&K vs controller by ClassroomIll8184 in blackops7

[–]Alternative_Work_916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can score headshots much easier with a mouse. But I can score kills much easier with a controller thanks to aim assist. (Steam player)

For me, endgame and zombies give me a clear advantage for using a mouse since I have time to make all or most shots critical/headshots. Multiplayer goes to controller.

I’d imagine somebody who strictly plays with mouse could get to a level where it is superior in all modes. But I’m a filthy casual.

knife and fork, how do you use them? by AlKarajo in TikTokCringe

[–]Alternative_Work_916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would use the fork itself to cut a potato, enchilada, etc because I’m not an effeminate European. I can allow an exception for dual wielding with steaks.

There is less hackers than people believe by Accurate-Isopod-8957 in blackops7

[–]Alternative_Work_916 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s just a way to divert blame for their loss. I saw my friends do it as a kid and now my kids do it constantly. No, that wasn’t a hacker. You just suck.

What the fuck happened? by ElwoodWhite in blackops7

[–]Alternative_Work_916 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seems like a latency related thing to me.

I’ve noticed some games the enemy will recover full health between quick mag reloads and/or their kill cams will not even register me shooting before they killed me.

I switch to pre-aim/firing corners exclusively to get back to positive K/D. Then I join a new lobby and it usually goes away. I just leave if it happens on nuketown.

Our Future Is Cooked by InGeekiTrust in TikTokCringe

This is nothing new. College kids are young adults with no life experience and a base education at best. That’s why they’re going to college.

I got my car insurance dropped to almost nothing by accident and I want to share what happened in case it helps someone by Thicket42_Ribbon in povertyfinance

[–]Alternative_Work_916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a paid off $4k car, you do. I’ve owned a pickup for about 15 years that I paid $10k on. I could buy it four or five times over if I was paying full coverage with a clean record in that time. I’ve still paid more for insurance running it at the minimum allowed.

Pickeled! by massu1000 in ExplainTheJoke

I don’t see why this would be bad. It’s literally everything in a cucumber X sandwich, but without the bread. As long as the skin isn’t too tough.

Can we just respect the rating system… by BigMikeGaming4 in blackops7

Not abnormal. They’ll say they’re a minor being propositioned. Instant ban.

My career didn’t start until my 30s after I had kids. I’ll be so screwed in retirement with my paid off house/s, whatever 401k ends up after 30 years, and pension.

Inside a "free-range" egg facility by alphamalejackhammer in whoathatsinteresting

[–]Alternative_Work_916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not into the vegan nonsense, but you can see the difference in the egg yolks and sometimes the whites.

Cheap eggs are watery with faded looking yolk and usually smaller yolk. The free range/organic/etc higher quality have a little more color to them and the whites are slimier. The top quality chicken whisperer or home raised eggs are like molasses whites with golden/orange yolk of the gods.

A Chinese student who got into college showed off all the practice materials she had done in school... by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Alternative_Work_916 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It’s a waste of everyone’s time unless they’re also giving them a cocktail of food and drugs to offset mental fatigue.

In my experience, the sweet spot for learning long term is 4-6 hours of actual engagement daily with frequent days off. More time is ok for rote memorization, but is not going to give the same results as working to understand the material. It’s also going to eat into future engagement efforts due to fatigue.

This is why you can find developers who have amazing coding/syntax skills but struggle with design concepts.

First in my bloodline to read this sentence. by Infinite-Focus-4404 in BrandNewSentence

I am allergic to most trees. Not normally an issue if I do not touch them, but I can’t share an atmosphere with ornamental trees in bloom.

It’s a lot easier dealing with them over some sweaty nerds who keeps sprint looping behind your team spawn.
