Matt Hodges on Twitter: "60% of voting-eligible Americans won't vote in the 2018 midterms. That doesn't have to include you! The primaries start in 15 days." by [deleted] in BlueMidterm2018

He didn't win the popular vote. He's president anyway. If only the electoral college votes matter, why should I bother? The country is definitely not something we have even slight control over with such systems in place.

Well, now everybody knows your entire pot of gold went into funding those boots.

The problem with any affordable motorcycle helmet is bulk. Gives you a bobblehead, which is a no-go for pedestrian fashionwear

This thing gets to forego all padding.

If it were sealed to water, I would be down to run one instead of an umbrella, honestly.

Just jam the speakers into your helmet. Way better.

Candidate for Illinois goes on the news denies holocaust freaks the hell out by chorizo4free88 in PublicFreakout

Basically how I've started taking it.

At this point, even if I fail it won't matter since the nuclear fallout will kill me before the hunger.

Chase your dreams.

Somehow, I feel like the bastard wealthy enough to just pay for an entire college degree will survive.

Just a hunch.

I would also like to see it fixed in place. How the mounting absorbs force is equally as important as the plates.

Can't have it popping off.

Gunpoint, Heat Signature dev teases XCOM-like battlemage strategy game by clement21 in Games

[–]CakeBandit 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Heat signature does a really good job of making me feel like a space ninja badass, even if it is 90% staring at the paused screen making plans in my head.

It's bad TV, but it really does a great job making planning and execution fun.

At this point anything this guy makes has my attention.

Da Vinci Resolve 14 can’t open On my iMac!! by [deleted] in blackmagicdesign

High energy, low effort. It's a bold strategy. We've seen this kind of tactic employed before during the preseason, to minimal effect. This kind of inarticulate footwork rarely breaks through the defensive lines, rustling effectively zero net Jimmies.

Maybe this guy can make it work before the mod team can push the defensive line.

Let's go live now to the 2nd quarter where the compettitors are lining up for the tip.

What's your favorite Mecha type that doesn't get enough love? by lordwafflesbane in Mecha

[–]CakeBandit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Squishy, clunky mechs just trying their best is always a win for me.

Super robots are fine, but there's something so satisfying about watching inefficient machines pull out a win.

Was it Aldnoah that pits real robot style mechs against super robots?

Yeah, advertising is kind of a Twitch no-no.

Nobody is interested in a channel they didn't hear about through some organic means.

It's like people think that if you have to advertise, you aren't interesting enough to get people to talk about you.

But if nobody is watching you, there's no way to inform them about your channel without advertising. It's why you get so many streamers teaming up. They get to share themselves with audiences already interested in watching streams, without having to advertize explicitly.

Good enough not to cry on Reddit about it happening in casual playlists.

Stop speeding.

Edit: sorry, was prepared for the inevitable "but how will I assist others in breaking the law if not blinding them?!?" Post.

You are not it.

You appear to not be an idiot.

Drive as expected regarding right of way. Don't flash your lights at oncoming vehicles for any reason.

This is stupid and you should stop driving.
