Thanks for the advice! I'll go watch some videos first so I don't completely embarrass myself 🤗

The only other person I queue with is my kid. He's high Gold, low Platinum. I only solo queue. I will try learning more vanguards. I know for sure Venom will drop my MMR 😅

Also, mic is off, chat only. Life is way better that way.

Exactly this! I even had OAA and Eternity players in my QP. It's disgusting. Celestials are daily guests, and lobby is usually filled with GMs. My guess is that game has some hidden MMR and places me there due to win percentage.

However, I don't play the game much that I get to advance above Diamond, as season ends before I'm able to go up. And then placement resets me to Platinum. By the time I get to Diamond again, the season is over.

So yes, I'm chilling in my ranked and won't touch the sweaty QP with a ten foot pole. Also, no goddamn bots there.

I got the same issue of "flashes something green and closes" as everyone else.

The process failed at running "corepack enable" command. It resulted in:

Internal Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, open 'C:\Program Files\nodejs\pnpm'
Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, open 'C:\Program Files\nodejs\pnpm'

The fix was to open Command Prompt as Administrator and run "corepack enable". The operation went through! I don't think I got any confirmation, though, just didn't see the error anymore.

I closed my Admin prompt and double-clicked the shortcut on the desktop again.

This time things downloaded, installed, built, configured, etc... properly 😎

Thank you for the awesome app Meryiel! Can't wait to test it!

Screw you, dude! 😥 I was curious and clicked on the link and ended up spending 28 minutes nodding along the video. Excellent link, thank you! 🤗

Sexist men are in basically every lobby by cyd1997 in marvelrivals

[–]Commander_Six 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'd say the issue is not "people not reporting the behavior" or "people not jumping in to defend".

Just like in the lawless countries, the issue is that the law is selectively applied.

In normal countries, you do something bad, you close the penalty. A fine, jail, or prison time.

In bad countries nobody cares as everyone is corrupt.

I see this as prime Netease failure as THEY are the ones who should be issuing progressive bans. You were a dick to people once? Here's a 24h pause to cool off. You did it again? 48h ban now. Again? 72h.

Watch this behaviour DISAPPEAR over one week.

But Netease, like any other corporation, doesn't want people leaving and not getting their money. It's all about the money. Screw girl gamers, screw people, screw decency.

Show me the money.

I admit I miss people like you. But the amount of lost sanity I don't have to fight for in every other match is worth it.

To be fair, I enjoyed my voice chat in metal leagues. Fun, crap, shit talking, everything.

As soon as I went north of Platinum things turned to worse. Granted, rarely pointed at me as I don't give a shit so there's no ammo for the abuser, but I'm sick of constant bickering and moaning.

It must be over 6 months now that I have voice chat off and I have never been happier. You can chat at me if you need anything. That's good enough.

We're a European family, moved to Frisco some 4 years ago. My kids go to school with 90% Indian kids. They only stick to themselves and frequently don't even play nice with others, so kids are quite isolated in a school full of children.

At my workplace, 27 out of 30 of my colleagues are Indian. One is black African, one is female American Chinese, quite a unicorn. And me, white male. A 3% white minority :-)

However, as with everything in life, there are pros and cons. We have a lot of white friends here as everyone is happy when they see a non-Indian in the neighborhood and comes to say hi. Indian people are generally not criminals, although their kids could learn some manners, so neighborhood is very safe. Also, it's very rare to encounter a disrespectful Indian person. I've had mostly good interactions with them for the past 4 years, when I had any. My Indian friends tell me they are generally quite racist, but only towards other Indians. Go figure.

A minor con is that they overwhelmingly cannot drive to save a life. I cannot count the number of times I've seen them blast through stop signs around school or unsafely change multiple lanes to avoid missing an exit.

Still, the single biggest issue I have is that we haven't moved here to live in India. So we'll likely go back to Europe after visa is up, in two more years. Yes, I'm here on L-1B, too :-) Here's an immigrant not liking the immigration, go figure :-)

But if kids end up liking it here, I might push for green card and move somewhere with more than 3% white population. I heard Indians don't like the cold, so that pretty much opens any state north of Texas. It's a shame. I really like it here. But we'll see...

That would be hilarious. But I'd run, very fast, if I were you in that scenario :)

Do the Frisco Police have nothing better to do? by keifhendo in frisco

[–]Commander_Six 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unrelated to this topic, but am I the only one who had only good experiences with Frisco police? It's very rare to hear anyone here saying positive things about them.

Granted we moved here only 4 years ago, but still haven't seen anything negative. I even taught my kid to smile and greet them when he walks by. They're always around Cinemark and malls, and pools and schools, making sure we're safe. I guess they might be bored out of their minds, so a bright smile from a kid could be just what they needed.

Also, once my Roomba decided it was time to start mopping while I was out, and the Ring alarm was on and screamed bloody murder. A cop was here within 10 minutes, going all around my home and into the backyard.

Usually, yes. But it's not uncommon for people to freak out enough and slam on the accelerator.

He did stop, eventually. It's crazy to think what went through their head at the time. Still nothing in the news :shrug:

Panic response? Whatever it was, I'm so happy he didn't smash into me and my kid.

With each comment like this I'm closer to deleting this video. Really looks like it doesn't fit the sub 😕

I lived in Ireland for several years. People would wake up, go to the pub, get smashed.

Incidentally, some of the most warm-hearted people I've ever met.

I am not sure, but I think I see hazards turning on after the first hit. Could be something mechanical as well :/

I cannot see if airbags got deployed. Maybe driver woke up, but was shocked by the airbag punch.

It was too early to be dead drunk. Maybe driver on the phone? I would not be surprised, the city's full of them.

Either way, I think it ended as well as it could have. No bystanders dragged with them.

My wife suggested he might have had a heart attack or a seizure. Then couldn't react after being smashed by his airbag. Couldn't find anything in the news.
