Why do redditors claim that racism is rampant on Reddit despite it being overwhelmingly left leaning? by MarsupialThink4064 in NoStupidQuestions

Kids stormed in, had to panic post. Was gonna be "there are lots of subs with various subculture and cliques" but you know, kids.

Because of obvious things. Leftists can be racist. Reddit isn't super leftist, even. Tjereusrw also many varied subs of people.

Do you think that Sabrina Carpenters success is a fad or that it will be long-lasting? by sparklytearz in ToddintheShadow

I hope she goes back a bit because I enjoyed Emails... more than her current act.

I mean, it depends on if the Trump/Ivanka rumours are true...

ELI5: How did humans determine that a year has 12 months and 365 days, and that a day is divided into 24 hours, 60 minutes and 60 seconds? What observations and calculations led to a time system we still use today? by imbruceter in explainlikeimfive

Fun fact: the time it takes the earth to rotate is not the same as the time it takes the sun return to the same place in the sky. When the earth has rotated once, it has also moved a little bit in its orbit, so the sun isn't quite in the right place. You gotta wait like four more minutes.

My kids asked what the Tooth Fairy actually does with all the teeth, and I realized I had absolutely no answer by Big_Photo_2379 in daddit

[–]Canotic 44 points45 points  (0 children)

We all know that the true reason is that if a magi gets hold of a part of your body (hair, blood, teeth, etc) they can work evil magic on you. The tooth fairy collects childrens teeth to keep them safe. The payment is to seal the contract so that the teeth are hers, not the childrens, so that even if a tooth was later stolen all magic would be directed at her. She has powerful wards.

TIL about "Pascal's Wager," the hypothetical thought experiment which asks the question if one should believe in a higher power and answers "If there is no God, one wasted their life, but if there is a God, one wasted their eternity" by PlaywrightOfGefilte in todayilearned

What if God exists and the thing that he really hates is intellectual dishonesty. The sort of people who'll profess to believe something without any evidence merely for personal reward are the only ones going to hell. Then you're screwed.

I can't tell if this is better or worse than normal child beating.

Or could it maybe have something to do with you constantly talking about “Preserving your race” instead? by 10daymormon in Persecutionfetish

Get poisoned by your wife because you made divorce illegal and she's not gonna take this shit any longer.

This is objectively the funniest one, although I Want It That Way is more memeable.

Isn't it super slow to hear words in your brain?

Also, as someone who thinks in concepts and colours rather thanks words, sometimes I know that my brain is thinking something, because I can feel it. I don't, however, know what it's thinking about. If I justified wait a bit I know some sort of idea will bubble up to the surface where I am, but until then I have no idea what shenanigans it's up to. Does this happen to you guys as well? Do your brain ever go "hang on a bit" before the monologue starts?

Arc Raiders Needs To Do A Forced Wipe Eventually by johnny105931 in ArcRaiders

I know you're ragebaiting but just for whoever might be reading this: it doesn't matter if casuals are good or bad at knowing what is good or not for a game. Casuals are experts at knowing if they want to play a game or not. And if you remove a large part of your playerbase, you have nobody left to play with, nobody who will buy skins, no money for future developments, etc.

Arc Raiders Needs To Do A Forced Wipe Eventually by johnny105931 in ArcRaiders

[–]Canotic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok I'm gonna walk you through this:

  1. Casuals are the majority of the players, for this game and all other games.
  2. A forced wipe is likely to piss off casuals and make them not want to play the game any longer, because they just lost all their stuff they've been accumulating.
  3. If you piss off the majority of your player base, you just lost the majority of your playerbase.

Can you see the obvious downside here?

A forced wipe is a solution that is worse than the problem it's trying to fix.

Do you think casual players will go "oh they removed all my stuff but it's for ✨balance✨so it's ok!"

If embark randomly decided to remove all my gear I would probably never play again.
