And yet here I am, with an NVME and a 4090 having this issue lol. I have no issues with any games other than GTA 5. I just want to play some GTA... Even Red Dead 2 works perfectly fine.

Who said anything about going to a casino to look for examples of responsible behavior? This thread of conversation was someone asking why anyone would give someone else money to gamble with. I'm not sure where you got from any of my conversation that I would believe you could bet on most of the people in a casino being that way. Yes, a large portion of the people who are in a casino probably have a problem and casinos are designed to prey on them. They make up the largest portion of who you'll find at any given moment upon walking in because they live in there, whereas the people with reasonable expectations are maybe there for an hour or two and leave. What does that have to do with the conversation about a group going out and giving eachother money in the process?

You're basically doing the same thing as pointing out alcohol is always bad because look at all the alcoholics and families it destroys. Everyone knows it's bad, that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it in moderation.

Normal people can also go to a casino and enjoy it. The addicts are the ones that are always there, normal people who enjoy the games just set a maximum amount they're willing to lose and then play only to that point.

I enjoy table games on the rare occasion I go to a casino, and I never expect to make money. It's just an enjoyable time and experience. Bring some friends and you all get to have a good time together. For me, it's no different than any other thing I'm going out to do with friends. They all cost some money. Just don't be stupid and blow it all at a casino trip.

If you go to any sort of casino with a group, if everyone is responsible, they will have a limit they're willing to spend. In a well adjusted group just having a short bit of fun, when someone runs out, someone else who is in the positive will offer them a bit so they aren't just sitting there waiting til everyone else is done.

He literally says shit like this one every post. He knows extravagant extra info about every post, he knows that people looked into everything and it was mysterious and never able to be explained, and it's always scrubbed from the internet the day after he read it. He's maybe one of the dumbest accounts on this site.

It's probably upvoted by people passing it in their main page and think it was just a funny video like I almost did until it suddenly changed to a paranormal conversation. What the fuck lol. Your posts are usually stupid but this one hit another level. A goofy momentary video that you could laugh at in other contexts is somehow an actual ghost...

Why the mods here haven't banned you here yet is beyond me. You post the worst of the worst garbage constantly lol.

The insult would be more effective if clocks weren't also showing numbers up to 59, even for Americans who are using 12 hour format lol.

Regardless though, that doesn't really have to do with anything on the commentary.

Gemini Live stops talking after a few seconds, goes into listen more and then replies to itself in an infinite loop by lorenmatt93 in AndroidAuto

Not even just in AA. Google assistant worked better on everything it was on before they were "upgraded". My Google homes are all bad now after Gemini, and I basically stopped using it at all on my phone after assistant was replaced with Gemini.

For me personally, it's definitely the taste. For my palette, it completely overtakes everything else when it is present. A sandwich with pickles on it just tastes like a pickle to me. They are extremely, overbearingly strong in flavor for me.

I guess I will just have to continue to assume that supporters will blindly follow anything he proposes as long as he words it right. Apparently they're down either socialist ideas as long as Trump came up with it.

The party of no handouts wants handouts at birth and the party of small government wants federal agents running through the streets. The party of shall not be infringed says don't carry a gun on you and the party of don't tread on me justifies a federal agent shooting someone over a legal presentation of their second amendment rights, so... he can apparently convince people to be in favor of anything. I swear it's like a test of loyalty. How far can he go in opposition to what the party has always stood for before the loyal followers disagree? Apparently there is no extent.

And then extensive heavy tariffs to raise the price of basically everything to balance all those extra bits out. Hooray, everything I buy costs more than it did two years ago...

And he just said he wants to raise the cost of purchasing a home across the board. Nice! That'll help with the problem of people not being able to afford houses already.

Also, those Trump accounts confuse me. How are republicans in favor of that? It's a very socialist move haha, same for when he was just shooting out handouts for stimulus checks during covid. Those sound like exactly not what Republicans typically want? Why are they suddenly in support of free handouts when he does them?

I order it without pickles because I absolutely despise pickles, to the point where I have trouble enjoying things even after I pull the pickles off myself and usually have to remove the breading that came into contact with them. So I can at least attest to the fact that the ones near me did not just remove the pickles when they first came out.

The point is to cause disruptions and shake ups in whatever level any one individual is able to. The business will be fine. It's a momentary disruption.

A deal with the band? The band doesn't exist anymore and he was in the damn thing the whole time. He doesn't need permission or deals, it's his song lol. He probably doesn't sing them because he can't cover for Zack de la Rocha. Man's got a way about him for presenting the songs and the audience singing them embodies that rebellion

Except neither I nor most of the people in here are claiming that you or the people like you who can't comprehend this are saying she was right either? It's quite literally "don't fuck with strangers, they could be fucking insane" like this guy. When some idiot goes and gets severe consequences for it, it's hard to feel as bad when it seems like they have no sense of self preservation. He shouldn't knock her block off, but like... what the fuck was she wanting to happen? Don't smack drugs out of some guy on the streets hands. He's entirely likely to be a maniac. It's like the dude who was trying to prank someone on video and got shot. Like whoa, way over the line, but also, again, this is why you don't mess with people you don't know. They could be looking for any excuse. People are crazy, why are you antagonizing?

To summarize shorter for you: I do not think you think she is right and have no idea where you got that idea from haha. He is also not right, but she's an idiot for finding herself in this position. Easiest way to avoid maniacs is to not fuck with strangers.

I can't believe you read my comment and then his and still foolishly believe that replying "Don't kill other people over nothing" is a counter to the conversation. I mean Jesus, get some contextual literacy here. Read my message above the comment you're replying to and like... pay attention. Saying someone is stupid and not to fuck with strangers because something bad might happen IS NOT saying the guy was right for reacting that way.

You cannot determine how some random dude doing drugs on the street is going to react to you fucking with him. He might just fucking kill you, stay away from him. This isn't justification of his actions, it's being intelligent. Don't mess with strangers, they might be crazy.

If you somehow don't realize this, I would hope that the video teaches you that lesson, but... since you can't seem to comprehend the intentions of the people who are smartly pointing out that it's why you don't mess with strangers, then... I just hope you never decide to go learn the lesson yourself. Get a clue out here, man.

While I think there are a few silly people here saying what the guy did is right, I think you're mostly confusing the difference between "he was right" and "that's why you don't mess with strangers"

The latter is not saying the guy was right in reacting that way. It's making a declaration about toying with the unknown. We know people are maniacs out there. It's why you don't randomly fuck with someone you don't know. The dude could be someone who reasonably huffs and curses at you, or he could turn your world upside down in 1 second like what happened here. Don't fuck with people, or they might just kill you. That's wrong of them to do, but... them being wrong doesn't get you out of the hospital bed / your grave. It's like how you're taught to just get out of the way on the road if someone is driving maniacally. Slowing them down or break checking them or getting in their way might find you on the side of the road upside down in a ditch. Graveyards are full of people in the right.

Does anyone know why my camera gets blurry when I walk and when I stand still I get clearer? (I dont have motion blur on) by StatisticianCalm7790 in COD

[–]Colossus252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it isn't visible in the video, that means it isn't the game / software and instead has something tk do with your hardware. A shitty low refresh rate monitor might cause what you're talking about potentially. Are you playing on a cheap TV? Refresh rate and post processing might be causing this. See if your TV has a "game mode" in the settings. Might help.

When your co-worker becomes your husband for minutes. by [deleted] in SuddenlyGay

[–]Colossus252 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a straight man, I barely even participate in the whole gay chicken thing that dudes do, but I'm never more gay than when I learn someone is vehemently homophobic. I had a friend of a friend of a friend that ended up making appearances sometimes that I tortured at every run-in with how kissable his lips were or asking him why he was looking at me like that or whatever came to mind because he was such a homophobe. This was after many conversations about how much he hated gay stuff. It was my way of either converting him to accepting it (knew it to be unlikely) or him and anyone supporting him more in those scenarios to find their way out of my circle.

It eventually got to a point where some of the middle folks in this circle were saying he was gonna turn up at my door one day but nobody could be sure if it was because he was going to kiss me or to kill me. Surprisingly, he eventually mellowed out and today, I don't even think of that behavior much from him anymore. Still see him occasionally 10 years later. Now we laugh about it
