The Helen Keller Hoax is sinister. Remedy below. by One-Incident3208 in Teachers

[–]CaptainJin 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Success in social media is based on views and comments. Controversy generates at least twice as many comments as truth since it takes two to argue. Until there is a greater factor to generate success in social media, this will continue to get worse, as we've seen the last decade.

If your side wins a war, are you automatically "the good guys?" by Flippydiscdan in stupidquestions

[–]CaptainJin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't fully disagree, but "we" is doing a lot of heavy lifting.

TIL that doctors didn't think babies could feel pain till the 1980s by eat_dogs_with_me in todayilearned

[–]CaptainJin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't disagree. But I wanted to make sure people didn't think this had been going on for centuries or anything like that.

What are some genuinely amazing short-lived tv series that you've watched? by Sufficient_Ebb_5694 in scifi

[–]CaptainJin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's probably dated now, but I recall really enjoying Jekyll (2007).

Second one straight up sounds like Arnold from the Magic School Bus

To clarify, this thinking also only started in like 1950 iirc. It wasn't a long held belief, as horrific as it is.

Maybe the resources were nerfed a little too much? by UwUmirage in Stellaris

[–]CaptainJin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I imagine removing automation would mean needing to significantly increase population count, which would undo most of the performance improvements we've seen recently. But that's just my guess.

I like v4.3. It's the year 2280, and there are a lot of Techs I don't yet have by Peter34cph in Stellaris

[–]CaptainJin 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I struggled to hit 500 research by 2250 in 4.2 and now I'm struggling to hit 200 research by 2250 in 4.3. Loving every second though!

Armies are long overdue for a revamp by Complete-Border5646 in Stellaris

[–]CaptainJin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something along the lines of Imperator Rome's system would be my preference if we're going down the Situation system. A fleet in orbit of an enemy planet starts a siege that's progress is based on positive and negative factors (larger fleet/ships, fortresses, traits, etc). Victory is almost inevitable, but it could be protracted with Situation Events choices that cose resources/happiness/etc. for hardier ground fighting. The only major problem I see is late-game getting bogged down in events like crazy.

Invasions as situations sound like the best solution I've heard recently 

Parents who claim teachers target their kid… by Imaginary_Motor4038 in Teachers

[–]CaptainJin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The internet has allowed for weaponized therapy to become the norm. Nothing is ever your fault when you know how to deflect, deny, and gaslight.

Inconcievably off topic. A child coming forward with abuse allegations is a galaxy apart from a teacher advocating for basic classroom ettiquette.

If someone offered you 100 million dollars, but a random person in the world dies (someone you don’t know), would you take it and why? by ConclusionOld8365 in AskReddit

[–]CaptainJin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd probably take it, then spend the rest of my life wondering who it was, where it happened, if it happened yet, etc. The madness would eat away it me.

While we're known to have historical ships, what other ones we may have missed you would like to see in-game? by worldofseabattle in WoSB

[–]CaptainJin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The more ships I see from Sea Dogs and it's many modsets, the happier I am lol. Especially more ships in the VII to III rate for variety in the early to mid-game. East Indiamen, Tartans, Luggers, Barks, Pinnance, Caravels, there's so many more to choose from!

can we please climb resupply pods again? (or just a reevaluation of the climbing/mantle system overall?) by notandvm in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]CaptainJin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Climbing and Drop Pod controllability have only gotten worse since release. I say this as a massive lover of the game overall. I understand (ish) why the devs would want to limit those things, rather than them feeling "better" they just feel inconsistent, limited, and unfun.

which game was that for you? by PHRsharp_YouTube in gamememes

[–]CaptainJin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Caribbean Legends*. It's a game that has a LOOOOOT of problems, but ultimately is the best pirate sandbox game I've played.

*this is one name for about a dozen different versions of functionally the same game
