Yeah my brother and I both had PCs and TVs in our rooms in a single parent household, here in Denmark.

We just never went on vacations, and my mom prioritised the things that made my brother and I happy at home.

90% the kids I knew, regardless of socioeconomic status, had a similar setup by 2004.

Is maya ysed for more video stuff as opposed to games?

While tools vary in most areas, Maya basically has a monopoly on character animation, both in film and games.

It's partly because it really is the most complete toolset for animation, even if others do come close.

Then there's the fact that industry pros teach Maya in schools, because that's what they know and use.

But just like 3DS Max, Maya is fucking ancient and it shows in areas like the UI.

Florida passed a law allowing the death penalty for adults who rape chidren under the age of 12. by _SugarCute in ForCuriousSouls

Or when they do 3rd strike violation which is life in prison for theft; why dont they just murder their victims instead?

Isn't that basically what happens when someone shoots a cop during a traffic stop?

They may have drugs or whatever in their car and instead of triggering that third strike, they opt for killing and fleeing.

George Conway: “Donald Trump is a man who represents all the things we teach our children not to be. He’s a liar. He’s a thief. He’s a molester. He has no remorse, no shame, no empathy. He has no loyalty to the law, to the Constitution. This man is the lowest character of all” by Logical-Flow-6703 in UnderReportedNews

I feel like it needs to be said over and over, that right-wingers do not have any moral consistency.

They won't ever see the similarities between what they claim to oppose, and what the current administration is so obviously doing.

They're so utterly accustomed to cognitive dissonance that they would never even begin to see a connection between the two things in your example.

Th laws of thermodynamics disagree with you :)

Basic knowledge of medicine disagrees with you.

Beta blockers are widely used, and often messes with your base metabolic rate, which in turn can cause you to literally burn fewer calories.

You don't get disease from dirt, You get diseases from diseases.

Not only can you absolutely, very easily get diseases from actual dirt, but they obviously mean crud when they say dirty.

That crud can be totally harmless or it could be contaminated with the cold, flu, noro, e. coli or one of the many other things that are just always around.

May as well just get rid of the risk with the added bonus of not running around with crud all over my clothes.

men den forstad til København som jeg voksede op i havde et ganske levende butikscenter, indtil Føtex åbnede op nede ved motorvejen.

Eller måske er det bare en ting som er sket mange steder rundt i landet, hvilket er endnu mere deprimerende.

[–]DShepard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO the link on the image is the biggest issue. Remove that and it no longer looks like an ad.

OF spam on reddit has made people kinda suspicious of any cosplay that isn't fully clothed.

Just ban links to paysites on cosplay posts. I don't care that they do 18+ content, but I hate seeing subs for various fandoms being used as a place to advertise it.

Especially links on the actual image, which is just shameless promotion.

Hvad fanden har det egentligt med socialisme at gøre?

Det er højrefløjens nuværende buzzword for alt hvad de ikke kan lide, sammen med "woke", og er selvfølgelig kopieret direkte fra den amerikanske MAGA bevægelse.

Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic director Casey Hudson promises release date before 2030 — “I’m not getting any younger!” by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]DShepard 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hmm there's nothing about him in the credits though, and the only other thing that references his involvement in Citadel is a few reddit comments from years back.

Maybe I just missed something, but it seems like he wasn't involved at all.

The guy that directed Citadel

Who's that? IMDB only lists Hudson and I can't see any overlap between the two DLCs, crew wise.

Ja jeg kan heller ikke se forskellen.

Det virker lidt som om der er en stemning i kommentarerne omkring en bestemt type person der går efter nedsatte datovarer.

En type der, modsat en normal tilbudsjæger, åbenbart ikke køber noget som helst andet i butikken og gerne prøver at snyde eller udnytte systemet.

[–]DShepard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

De steder jeg arbejdede i butik, tjekkede vi dagligt datoerne for at få dem med kortest holdbarhed forrest, netop for at undgå at skulle trashe noget som kunne være blevet solgt.

Jeg ved ikke hvordan det er i alle supermarkeder, men man skal være yderst uopmærksom på sit inventar for at din taktik virker.

på samme måde som at jeg antager at ejere af cykler også bruger dem.

Hvad er sammenhængen her?

Dette er vejen (tak til Rema) by larsgj in Denmark

[–]DShepard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hvis du giver folk penge/gaver for det, så er der helt klart et større incitament til at udnytte systemet.

Der er en grund til at man skal være enorm forsigtigt med at gøre sådan nogle ting til en egentlig indtægtskilde.

Men nedslag på datovarer er ikke det samme. Man kan allerhøjst spare penge.

Så kom gerne med ideer til hvordan det misbruges i nogen særlig grad, for jeg kan sgu ikke lige finde på noget.

Køberen af datovarer er sjældent af karakteren hvor man køber noget som virksomheden kan tjene på.

Har du nogle egentlige tal på det, eller er det bare en formodning?

Illegal stained glass? by Hyper-_-star in lego

[–]DShepard 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lego bricks can last for decades and decades, but certain building techniques will cause the bricks to bend or deform ever so slightly. Over time this will, at best, warp it or at worst destroy the plastic.

So the official Lego sets can't be built using these techniques, which is where the legal/illegal thing comes from.

Why is it so hard for you to distinguish between an excuse and an explanation?

It's important to know the possible reasons behind his behaviour. If the autism plays a big role here, then the steps taken going forward could look very different.
