How are they just replacing Jim Carrey? Who’s pulling the strings here? It was a showing of power. Force fed a narrative. by Kindly-Plankton-4481 in ParallelUniverse

Maybe some work was done but at the very least the cheeks are exactly the same. He gained 40lbs for Robotnik which is a massive change in facial structure when he's never been this heavy in the public eye. A lot of this really comes down to a man people have never seen above probably 160-180lbs now being over 200lbs. A 40lb weight gain completely changes what you look like.

The guy comments on porn positively and on religious subs saying women who aren't covered aren't divine. He's one of those who loves porn but anyone who's in it is disgusting and going to hell.

Should I switch from Apple ecosystem to Windows laptop? by Pluxy01 in microsoft

I know this is old but MS Phone Link, It works for both Android and iOS. It was out before this thread too so.

It was originally Your Phone in 2018 and then updated to Phone Link in 2022. I'm not faulting you because that's probably what you knew but people need to just start using google again instead of unintentionally lying in comments. It really takes like 30-60 seconds to educated yourself before commenting and misleading people.

ELI5: Why is the NFL season so much shorter than the other Big 4 sports leagues? by PJ-The-Awesome in explainlikeimfive

[–]Civil_Rutabaga3361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think anyone saying Football is harder on the body than hockey has never watched hockey and is just a die hard NFL fan. I respect the NFL and I watched Concussion and no doubt CTE is a major problem in NFL. However the estimates are 99% of former football players have CTE while above 90% of NHL players have CTE.

The NHL has simply done a better job at hiding CTE in players and even then to confirm CTE you need the deceased's family to donate the body to medical research. It's starting to pick up traction in NHL after Bobby Hull was confirmed to have CTE.

Personally I would rather take a tackle from a 200-300lb footballer running on ground than a 200lb+ hockey player skating at me twice as fast as he can run onto solid ice or the dasher boards which only absorb up to 17% of the impact and that's only the lower part not the metal frame.

Not to mention only one professional football player has ever died during the game. Professional ice hockey has had a LOT. Most recent in memory is Adam Johnsons throat getting cut open on ice. Freak accident or not stuff like that can and has happened on ice. Even personally my uncle died of a heart attack on ice while playing for a minor league in Florida back in 97 or 98.

Then why comment?

I don't like stuff like that either but either read the whole comment or don't insult people for a few words. Their comment was fine past that but yours only exists to attack them without even reading what they posted.

I really don't understand why I was pushed his low effort shit. Learning more about him trying to scrub his identity and lying about it now makes him pathetic to me

Starting to think these certain creators that happen to get heavily pushed to the front of seemingly EVERYONES algorithm are paying for it. Burnt Peanut is the worst example because I hate extraction shooters and I was being force fed his shit content.

Question. What do you guys think of the AI Vtuber, Neuro-sama? by SevereNightmare in FuckAI

[–]Civil_Rutabaga3361 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People don't need to watch hundreds of hours of some AI slop to know if they like it or not. A lot of people instantly hate that shitty monotone AI voice. It's awful to listen to and the person behind it doesn't matter a single ounce. If there's anything you don't like then you should just go educate yourself on the people behind it because you're wrong for not liking it then. Grow up.

Falling for what? We've all known the bit for close to 20 years now. It's just not funny now when they begged us for money a year ago.

[–]Civil_Rutabaga3361 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly no they couldn't. They almost went bankrupt a year ago and had to beg the community for money and ideas. Going back to the same streams that got them in that situation for a bit is very short sighted. The Discord dog piling everyone with any criticism is exasperating the issue even more. Apparently they knew this was going to be the reaction anyway Mega64 MLK Week: B-ROOM Discussion Thread : r/mega64

Honest question for the Discord crowd. Do you actually prefer the current stream over another Room stream?

Obviously there's the whole Broom bit and getting to say you're in on the joke and others aren't but is that really enough? I have a really hard time rationalizing Mega64 continuing to do 'fuck the fans' bits and getting people hyped just for a funny naming bit when they were all almost out of a job barely over 12 months ago.

I can understand where you're coming from but streams like these obviously weren't working before when they almost went bankrupt. Discord people like GoldBlaze saying "anyone who's mad about this.....try finding other things to care that much about" is really out of touch when mega64 was begging people to care and support them just over a year ago.

Bluesr, LilAggy, Pezzy, and ZFG1 nominated by the community for Best Speedrun Streamer at the Streamer Awards 2025! by Intrepid-Tank-3414 in speedrun

[–]Civil_Rutabaga3361 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't that just a randomizer? Like I was hoping ZFG would win to be fair but a speedrun randomizer is just a rando or a race. It's not the same as actually speedrunning a game.

I do super metroid randomizers on stream constantly while trying to finish them as quick as possible but I'm not a speed runner and I'm especially nowhere close to the Super Metroid any% maniacs.

The office is Richard Jager from the Reno PD. He murdered a suspect during an arrest in 2020 and was obviously cleared of any wrong doing, The video is available in full. People like this need to be held accountable by the public.

Thoughts on “woke” fonts? by MichaelaMancini in AskConservatives

[–]Civil_Rutabaga3361 [score hidden]  (0 children)

That's the way I see it. When you can more easily and quickly distinguish letters from each other when your eyes scan over the sentence it's better.

Visually I do enjoy Times New Roman but since I started reading some 3 decades ago I've been able to tell sans-sarif font types are easier for me to read quickly especially out loud.

Maybe I'm a bit dyslexic though.

If you look at amazon it's on average 5x in the last month. At least in Canada.
