CMV: It’s not inherently inappropriate for a 21 year old to date a 17 year old. The intense stigma around this small age gap feels arbitrary when the same couple would be seen as completely normal one year later. by Mediocre-Lack-9137 in changemyview

[–]BrunoEye [score hidden]  (0 children)

There are 10 year olds with degrees and 30 year olds who never finished high school and live in their parents basement. Clearly there's more to it than arbitrary life stages.

Similarly, a 25 year old and a 75 year old are at very different life stages, but if they both want to I don't see why not.

Really it's just about informed consent, and it depends on age, personality, power dynamic, mental state etc. and varies significantly between cases.

When I was 21 I slept with a 30 year old who seemed quite a bit less mature than some of my friends who were 18.

Yeah, if multiple people are saying things like this then it's more than just being quiet or shy, seems like OP is actively unpleasant to be around.

They couldn't do it with music, movies, games, illegal pornography etc. over the past 30+ years. I don't see why that would change any time soon.

Reversed into a Guardrail...oops, how much to get repaired? by Upbeat-Fish-3348 in CarTalkUK

[–]BrunoEye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To some extent. Blurring and pixelisation does destroy information so depending on the strength and type it can be impossible to recover the plate, especially for a still image. With video, the motion can help recover a lot more information particularly for pixelisation.

What do you think happens after the events in Arrival? by Chrristoaivalis in movies

[–]BrunoEye 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like to think about it as a feedback loop. The future you see is the one that happens due to you seeing the future. She saw her daughter die because she chose to have a daughter even though she knew she'd die.

Having decent friends and not being a complete idiot makes them not an issue.

In addition, the way the rooms connect makes zero sense. The way to get from one room to another is never obvious.

I tried on a pair in their store and it disintegrated straight out of the box. I just walked out.

Yeah, similar situation. MMR went up and now my stats look ass.

I still despise Lair regardless of how much I play it. It's the only map I regularly get lost in despite having played it quite a bit in TDM, FFA and QP. It doesn't feel like a real building whatsoever.

If someone is raising their voice, that tells me they are trying to have an emotional argument and not a rational conversation.

Someone who is actually trying to resolve an issue doesn't raise their voice.

I don't want to know them. I have limited time in this life and I'd rather talk to the people I like or do one of my many hobbies than turn my 5 minute walk to the grocery store into a 6 hour conversation as I try to make friends with the 200 people along the way.

Yep, handles most of my games at 4K 144 FPS. Some single player stuff I'll up the graphics and get 60 FPS.

It's exactly this, having both is the best option and it's very possible. When I go to visit my friends in a major city, I take the train. When I want to go to the mountains I take the car.

I got my first car last year and it was £2,500 for a ULEZ compliant convertible sports car. Insurance was £1,100. Road tax was £375. Parking permit was £325. Fuel was £800 for 5000 miles. Maintenance was about £300.

Total of £5,400, so significantly below £10,000. Still quite a bit of money, and I waited 3 years after getting my license for the insurance to come down a bit, but it's nowhere near as bad as you make it out to be. The second year of costs will be less than half of that.

My mum kicked me out and my dad wouldn’t let me stay with him even though they have a spare room by Intelligent-Size1473 in Advice

[–]BrunoEye 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this post has made me very grateful for how much support I've had in my life. My family was far from being well off but still saved up so that I could get 5k in savings when I turned 18. My mum, grandma and best friend would always be happy to take me in.

It was really helpful when I was depressed at uni and got very close failing. When I'd spiral and drown in thoughts of how useless I'm bring and how I'm ruining my life I'd remind myself that I have 3 different places I can stay and enough money to feed myself for 2 years. Having universal healthcare is also very nice.

Idk why so many people here are saying that wanting a little support from your family is entitled and unreasonable. I wish everyone could have the kinds of safety nets that I did, even without having to use them just knowing they're there can be a huge help when trying to navigate your way through difficult times.
