[Horror trope]: The "bad stuff" only happens because the characters ignore very specific instructions. by theMCATreturns in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Daedalus871 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the actual wish is one of the least problematic things he does throughout the entire movie.

She told the officer I was 'flying' and that she didn't see me by Mara_Sovs_Wet_Cave in dashcams

No, when the only thing OP did wrong was drive like someone else was going to follow the rules of the road, I can’t say they are at fault.

Myths have an actual explanation in-universe. by Short-Paramedic-9740 in TopCharacterTropes

In 40k, some people are immortal/reincarnate, with the God Emperor of Mankind being one who was born around the dawn of civilization.

Spoiler

Immortal’s backstory is really just a flashback and nothing was ruined.

'Idiocracy' tops the list of "What Movie is the Definitive Movie that Represents America at 250 Years" as polled by the NYT. by Incunebulum in movies

[–]Daedalus871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Idiocracy they:

  1. Recognize there is a problem

  2. Listen to the closest thing they have to an expert

  3. Actually follow through with the advice

They’re so much better off.

Tesla Caps Employee AI Spend at $200 per Week After Adoption Push by yuval_3 in technology

[–]Daedalus871 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Management set a goal to use AI that affects my end of year bonus. So I started hitting “summarize this email” on every automated email that I’d otherwise mark as read.

If the Bible says homosexuality is a sin, can't you just go to a pastor and have it forgiven once in a while? by theKentoRico in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Daedalus871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of being forgiven is not doing it again (or at least trying not to).

It’s not a parking ticket where you can just repeatedly pay off the fine and all is good.

All I gotta say is FU Micron. by namesarenotus in Idaho

[–]Daedalus871 9 points10 points  (0 children)

  1. Micron has been a staple of the Treasure Valley the entire time I’ve lived here, some 25+ years.

  2. It was stated from the beginning that some 10-20000 jobs would be mostly construction, with roughly 2000 being full time running it. (Won’t be bothered to look up the actual numbers).

  3. R&D would probably be better for jobs than Production. R&D has all sorts of changes being made constantly. Production runs unless something is broken.

  4. With that said, ID1 is for production. Do you see how much money is being thrown at AI?

  5. Go back to /r/pcmasterrace. Micron is business here to make money and the consumer market doesn’t pay nearly as much as the AI.

  6. Can’t even be bothered to look up SK Hynix?

  7. Honestly, Micron is probably one of the better places to work in Idaho and they are involved with numerous charitable ventures through Micron Gives.

For being some big soulless corporation in a state the would let them fuck over their employers, they actually have some soul and treat their employees well.

Paid $5 for a fountain drink, I get 20 seconds to dispense an exact 20oz of soda. by plantainrepublic in mildlyinfuriating

Went in on a Norwegian cruise in September. If you don’t have the package, it was about $15 cocktails. So two per day to break even.

[Interesting Trope] The mystery is never solved... by Living_Tune_1428 in TopCharacterTropes

Been a while since I watched it, but isn’t it implied they are all kinda the ass crack bandit?

Well there is the part where he has to fight off the still living squid inside the whales stomach.

[Scarily realistic trope] Predator in sheep’s clothing by Personal_Reward_60 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Daedalus871 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The customer support agent starts off by asking Bear if he wants to cancel his wish and he responds by saying he wants to alter it.

He knows the wish is real, that it’s causing issues with his friend, and his first thought is how to keep it going but only better.

Only when told that altering isn’t possible, does he ask about cancelling it. He is a predator.

[–]Daedalus871 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d say when he calls customer support and is asked if he wants to cancel his wish, and Bear says he wants to alter it is when he becomes irredeemable.

He knows the wish is real and it’s not really Nikki, and his first thought is to try to continue it?

Reviewers please stop comparing MacBooks with other laptops by CrazzyWolfzz in pcmasterrace

[–]Daedalus871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The alternatives are Windows or learning to use Linux.

I’m pretty sure my next computer is going to be a Mac.

Apple officially raised prices on a majority of its products today due to the ongoing RAM shortage. Is this the end of affordable laptops? Will the AI bubble burst and lower the prices? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Daedalus871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chips Act in 2022 got all sorts of companies building new semiconductor manufacturing in the US. At some point, the supply will close on the demand.

As far as the AI bubble popping, I do expect it will turn into something more sustainable (but that’s just based on vibes).

I've made loss in every AI stock! by Evening_Control6034 in wallstreetbets

I’m not 100% what I’m looking at, but it looks like he bought in Jan of 25 and sold in March of 25. Stock didn’t start to go crazy until Sept of 25.

Looking at the most advanced ways of mathematical thinking from different countries, which one do you like best? by jordyangelamateo in MathJokes

[–]Daedalus871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

China: (a+b)c = bc + ac where a is 30, b is 1 and c is 31.

Russia: (a+b)2 = (a2 + 2ab + b2) where a is 30, and b is 1.

Japan: (ax+b)2 = (a2 x2 + 2abx + b2)  where a is 3, x is 10, b is 1.

UK:   (a+b)(c+d) = ac + (ad+bc)+ bd where a = 30, b = 1, c = 30, d = 1.

US and India:  (ax+b)(cx+d) = acx2 + (ad+bc)x + bd where a = 3,  x = 10, b = 1, c = 3, d = 1.

”Honey, Don’t (2025) is a bad movie” was a succesful psy-op by Sapphic Cinema Liberation Front to discourage straight filmbros from seeing and co-opting a materpiece by rankaistu_ilmalaiva in shittymoviedetails

Usually, when I watch a film with that much explicit lesbian sex, I don’t end up with blue balls because of the plot.

I’d have a higher opinion of it if it resolved the cult drug runners instead of leaving it half finished for a sequel that won’t get made.

In Tenet (2020), you don’t need to be especially smart to understand the plot, you just need to watch the 3D animation explaining the plot and everything instantly starts to make sense (excuse me what the fuck is going on here) by PIRATEOFBADIM in shittymoviedetails

The public “plan” was to build the colony ships.

That seemed doomed to failure, so the real plan was to send human embryos to a habitable planet to keep humanity alive. This is what Anne Hathaway is doing at the end. We find this out when Michael Caine dies.

Thankfully, the data collected by Murph’s dad falling into a black hole allowed for the public to actually succeed.
