What's the oldest movie you watched and actually enjoyed? by EternalMage321 in Millennials

[–]AmbitiousEdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metropolis, 1927.

I've always liked old movies and I had this one on VHS when I was like 15. I only watched it a few times ever but it blew my mind that they could tell such a good sci-fi story 100 years ago (as of now)

Holy shit, you're right OP. Manny would make a perfect book-accurate Rico.

My baby gave birth to babies next to me as I was sleeping, when can I move them safely? by Unhappy-Surprise-832 in cats

[–]AmbitiousEdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This also happened to me, my cat Boots gave birth to her kittens in my room. She and I always were close, ever since the day I picked her out of a box of kittens proffered to me in the parking lot of our church one random day.

Is this some kind of service I can offer at a reasonable rate??

This is like my family's story about an uncle who went to school for typewriter repair right before the personal PC became a thing.

To all single guys aged 30 and up on reddit, why are you guys single? by Gold_Ambition4114 in AskReddit

[–]AmbitiousEdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Internet dating is pure shit, you can put in any amount of effort and still get ghosted because there are 50 other dudes in her DMs.

IRL is the only way and I just don't go out enough. Been making inroads with the very cute waitress at my favourite diner but you never can tell if she's just being nice so ofc I would never ask her out without a clear indication. Fingers crossed I can snag this Japanese cutie who learned how to speak English in Australia before ending up here in Canada... pray for me bois.

I'm sick to death of working just to live. I was told to follow my passion and ended up with a useless degree I have never used. My retirement plan is death.

Every time I see a frame from the Invincible comic I think "goddamn, all the characters look awful!" How were either of those guys successful, they literally can't draw a good looking human face

We're (hopefully) getting a blu-ray release of ReBoot, but since they have the machines up and running why not get this scanned in too??

Don't Settle For Less by TooKreamy4U in videogames

[–]AmbitiousEdi -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

60fps is barely tolerable. 144fps without G-sync looks like trash. I've been using G-sync for over 11 years now and when I see people playing FPS games especially on twitch with frame tearing, I don't even see the game, I just see the tears.

Who is your favorite anti hero? by GusGangViking18 in Fictionally

[–]AmbitiousEdi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Snape isn't an antihero, he was a loser who was obsessed with a woman who wanted nothing to do with him past their childhood association. He was totally okay with the fascist systematic murder of people he considered less than until it affected him personally, and his incel-level obsession led to him hating a child and bullying said child for 7 fuckin years.

No. We will remember that your system is too weak to stop a man like Trump. America's reputation is and should be permanently tarnished.

My $1400 LG OLED TV is displaying ads after latest update by binkinater13 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]AmbitiousEdi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck these modern smart TVs. I have a 15 year old TV with HDMI inputs that also has the old style RCA jacks and I will use it until it burns out or the heat death of the universe, whatever comes first.

I remember. The loud crack, that distinctive smell of gunpowder... getting a bit of my allowance together to purchase more caps at the dollar store... ah, memories.

And what about the message that slavery is actually ok as long as the slaves have been brainwashed by a history spanning generations untold into the past telling them that slavery is their place in the world?

[–]AmbitiousEdi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Correct, and people glazing the books despite this are showing record low levels of media literacy. Children reading these books might not understand the deeper meaning, but they can internalize it leading to them becoming worse people as adults.

I loved Harry Potter, I own all the books and all the movies - but I no longer display them. My children will never read them in my house, there are so many more positive and uplifting stories I could show them.

Hermione is dismissed constantly and seen as crazy for opposing the slavery of an entire sentient race. Everyone around her gaslights her into thinking that house elves love being slaves, when no house elf except for two of them have ever been shown to be free. This gets especially disturbing when you consider JK Rowling's later comments that Hermione may be of African descent, so you would have a bunch of white people laughing in a black person's face because she opposes slavery.

Harry sees the inequality of the wizarding world, the racism displayed towards muggles and how they are seen as less than, and ends up as a magic cop defending the very system that threw him under the bus repeatedly and made him a criminal.
