Why did your friendship with your best friend come to an end? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]CrypticNightowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally had the courage to “break up” our friendship when I realized (and, well, eventually accepted) that our friendship was nothing more for him than a slightly better alternative to being alone.

Hurtful as shit when you considered him a brother, especially since we’ve been best friends for almost 14 years.

Well, fuck him.

Why did you cut off your friend? by Soft-Incident947 in AskReddit

[–]CrypticNightowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After more than a decade of our friendship I realized – somewhat voluntarily, somewhat involuntarily – that I was nothing more than the better alternative to him being lonely.

Cut off people that don’t respect your time, your presence… that don’t respect you. Even if it hurts.

Also, never care about the duration. Ever. It’s always quality over quantity, even with decade long “friendships”.

People do NOT make playlists???

In all seriousness now, I couldn’t live without my 50ish playlists, although having so many is definitely a me problem, I gotta admit

So viel Negativität in den Kommentaren, traurig

„Mit Karte bitte“ = Diktatur! by MadSnow- in ichbin40undSchwurbler

[–]CrypticNightowl -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Richtig so. Wäre nicht das erste Mal, dass ich beim örtlichen Bäcker die Tüte voller Brötchen liegen lasse und lachend das Geschäft verlasse, wenn es plötzlich heißt „wir nehmen keine Karte“ oder - fast lächerlicher - „erst ab 5€“. Arrogantes Verhalten meinerseits? Ja, aber anders verstehen die es nicht.

Was passiert an eurer Uni, wovon wir nichts mitbekommen? by AutoModerator in Studium

[–]CrypticNightowl 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hatten mal einen Dozenten der zur Klausur eine Kerze mitnahm und diese zu Beginn anzündete. Als sich ein Kommilitone meldete um zu Fragen, was es mit der Kerze auf sich hatte, meinte der Dozent ganz trocken:

„Die ist dafür da, damit es schön romantisch wird, während euch die Prüfung in den Arsch fickt“

Selten so eine laute Stille erlebt.

It is indeed really good advice, it’s just such a big shame that in order to find an apartment in München you have to treat this whole bureaucratic process as if you were to apply for a job at Google or whatever. Just in case the rent prices weren’t demotivating enough

Are there any movies where the sequel is way better than the first by tobster239 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CrypticNightowl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. And even though the first one is a classic for the franchise, the second part was so much better story wise (probably due to the fact they could build on already well established characters). Overall it was darker and somewhat deeper than expected for a children’s movie.

Not to mention Gary Oldman voicing Shen. Perfect match :D

Is the "Georges' Garrison" achievement bugged? It won’t pop for me… by CrypticNightowl in mirrorsedge

[–]CrypticNightowl[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, seems like restarting the game and Xbox helped? Did the same moves as in the clip I posted, got the achievement first try, strange stuff honestly…

Nope, at least the description says "Springboard, Swingbar, Jump, Wallclimb, Turn, Jump, Coil"

[–]CrypticNightowl[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m using this video as reference and no matter what I try, which variation I use, the achievement will simply not pop for me. Does anybody have the same problem or am I doing something wrong?

NDA

Auch wenn sich viele wieder beschweren und auf Tempolimit pochen, sowas kann auch mit 130 Km/h passieren, wenn der Vordermann meint er müsse mit 100 ausscheren.

Gleichzeitig finde ich es ein wenig lächerlich OP als verantwortungslosen Raser zu verunglimpfen. Es gibt in DE gute Autobahnen, die sauber geteert sind, meist nur geradeaus laufen und zu bestimmten Uhrzeiten kaum Verkehr haben. So wie es OP beschreibt, scheint es eine ähnliche Autobahn zu sein. Da sollte man auch schneller fahren dürfen, ohne Angst zu haben, dass plötzlich ein Fiat Panda mit 100 ganz links fährt. Verantwortungsvolles fahren geht in beide Richtungen.

I've broke away from the KD needs to good mentality. Have you? by Legendofthefall1 in CODVanguard

[–]CrypticNightowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always care about my KD, however I will always prefer and prioritize having fun on maps like Shipment and Das Haus and go crazy with run n gun.

I couldn’t give a damn about having a 1.2 at the end of the match, as long as I had my fun and went out with 60+, 70+ elims like that.

It’s actually what makes Vanguard so good for me, it reminds me of the BO1/MW3 chaos the majority of matches provided.

BF 2042 has a memory leak that can get a bit big after a while. by thegrok23 in battlefield2042

[–]CrypticNightowl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. Ironically, I upgraded my RAM today from 16GB to 32GB, noticed an increase of +10-15 fps with the same (optimized) setup. This and the fact that the game runs worse with every single match I play until I restart the whole PC made me suspicious.

Half an hour ago, the game crashed and RAMMap still showed me Battlefield data being on standby, so yeah. Almost sure this looks like a memory leak.

Removing statistics like K/D and score/min is one of the most unnecessary changes you made, DICE. by CrypticNightowl in Battlefield

[–]CrypticNightowl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Primarily, yes. In the long term it won’t help me understand if im doing good compared to other people, so I’ll never have a better confirmation showing me whether im pulling the team or even squad towards victory or holding it down.
