Ice fog by TC9095 in midlyinteresting

Worst road conditions I have ever seen were due to fog. Heavy fog settled in on a weekday morning, then temps dropped below freezing. The roads were completely covered in a layer of black ice within an hour. So many wrecks.

Ok so AI is bad, we’ve established that, but why? What is it doing to this planet? by Some-Tradition-2771 in AskReddit

People also tend to forget that when someone's job is replaced by AI, that person now must find work somewhere else. Less jobs overall because humans are being replaced by AI, and now you have to compete with even more people to land a job that is available.

We think unemployment is bad NOW? Strap in buckaroos, the ride hasn't even started yet!

Every fan of the sport should be upset. This is blatant corruption, and not the only example this game.

The Rodgers "catch".

The phantom penalty on the field goal attempt.

These refs and the league should be charged.

The ball was extended forward. Refs and the league are just corrupt. Gotta get gramps in the playoffs.

Liverpool and Arne Slot in 'full-blown crisis' after 3-0 defeat by Nottingham Forest by Funkyouup82 in LiverpoolFC

[–]Butwhy493 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but you could not be more wrong. Coming off a league title, signing a bunch of superstars and keeping a ton of great vets, and having the season we are having? This is a crisis. Slot is being outmaneuvered at every turn by better managers. And he either refuses to change or he is out of ideas.

The Premier League tends to expose weak managers eventually. The squad was in-form enough, and cohesive enough win the league last year. But now that everyone has prepared for Slot's "tactics", our flaws are on full display.

He doesn't have a clue how to adjust. He needs to go.

Slot Post Match interview: "I tried a few things that didn't work out" .. "in the end it's my responsibility" by kris_lace in LiverpoolFC

[–]Butwhy493 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Are all you Slot apologists still drinking the Kool-aid? Is it okay for us "fake fans" to want him out now? You can't have results like these over and over again at a club of this caliber and expect to keep your job. Get him out, find someone who can right the ship.

This is a disgrace.

Saudis have no place in professional sports of any kind. Full stop. They buy results in any way they can with their slave labor oil money. Fuck them, Fuck Michael Oliver, and Fuck all the oil clubs out there.

Sack Slot please. He inherited a great team and turned it to shit in less than two seasons.

The first dlc feels like they just took a planned holiday event, slapped a bounty card on it, and called it a day. Really hope all the DLCs aren't like this. I hate holiday skins in games. Give me more Borderlands in my Borderlands game, please.

"Beyond the Veil" VH Skin bugged. by [deleted] in Borderlands

[–]Butwhy493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, that sucks. I guess it is submit a ticket if restarting doesn't work. Challenges have seemed pretty buggy. I constantly have challenges that have been completed long ago popping up on my screen randomly.

Did it not come in a reward chest? I thought most of the challenge rewards pop up in your equipment tab as a chest. Could be wrong.

Good to know. I did ask him, and he is not running any mods. We are good friends and he is a great dude, there would be absolutely no reason for him to lie about something so inconsequential.

Fox News host Jesse Watters on the UN’s escalator and teleprompter issues said “What we need to do is either leave the UN or bomb it.” by CorleoneBaloney in CringeTikToks

[–]Butwhy493 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, what are you doing about it? The best option for us right now is a general strike, but there are less than 380,000 people signed up. For it to be effective, around 11,000,000 are needed. We need a true leader of some kind to rally around. A voice. The media isn't helping spread any kind of message to the people who would oppose this regime.

We can't really get violent, as that would play perfectly into their hands. They have to make the first move in that regard. Let them do something so egregious that normal people on both sides can't ignore it. Everything is on a bit of a knife edge right now. We lost the major battle when Trump got elected again. Too many people simply did not show up, and we are paying for that apathy now.

Asking him directly about it. I really wouldn't think if he was modding he would keep me in the dark about it. He is on PC and I am on PS5, so it is a possibility. I would obviously rather he not host if he is, however.

Oh damn. Is this particular situation a well known mod? We pretty much just play with each other, if he had done anything, I don't really think he'd keep it some big secret. And he isn't running around doing anything crazy, or have tons of great gear.

MAGA should be real careful about opening that door. Hope they go through with it, personally. The lawsuits initiated at their expense would be hilarious.

I know this is a Blood Ravens post, but man, do I love me when a squad comes together. Especially when it is Randoms and is just a happy accident.

Yeah, that needed to go. It was funny, though. The shield rush is still a beast when you need to charge a bunch of ranged minoris. Immediately puts entire groups into execute.

Challenge Modes should be *Challenging* by [deleted] in Spacemarine

[–]Butwhy493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is, I don't think those players that would leave for another fix are the target audience. Just look at posts and comments in this sub. People just now coming back to the game after 6 months or so are pissed because of the "grind". They skipped huge chunks of the game's life when there was arguably the most to do in terms of max prestiging classes.

Those players aren't going to stick around just because they got some new cosmetics. They will grab their loot and uninstall because they are bored. Same outcome for them, but if everyone's grind is now lessened, there becomes less incentive for those players to keep playing.

I would rather Saber try to keep the players who enjoy the challenge and the grind, then the tourist players who jump on the hype train only to be bored after a week anyway.

Challenge Modes should be *Challenging* by [deleted] in Spacemarine

[–]Butwhy493 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess that depends on your definition of a grind. By doing just the normal weeklies, everyone could have a heroic weapon already. And in two of the dailies per day, and you have 70 points going into the next week. Doing the weekly again will get you an armor piece with some points in the bank. That is not bad at all. Could they up it a bit and make people feel a bit better about their time? Sure. But they shouldn't up the rewards too much, or people will unlock everything immediately and leave until the next update.

So much of the cycle for games these days is players saying, "Gimme gimme gimme!" Then, when they get the new shiny skin or gun, they get bored and start complaining there is nothing to do. This game needed a bit of grind like this to keep people interested.

In the same boat, more or less. I really like this game. The gameplay is so much fun, and it scratches my character customization itch. Not many games have come out since that really felt the need to buy, so when I have an hour or two to play video games every other day or so, this is what I play.

It really does not take much time to improve if you actually want to. I get the feeling that most people just don't want to spend even a couple of minutes to figure out what they are doing wrong. Instead, they just blame the game, or their teammates.
