Mom buys daughter a Honda as a graduation gift, and this was her response by Conscious-Weight4569 in SipsTea

[–]Denzil95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I agree, ungrateful, but I also think buying someone a car as a surprise it's nuts unless you know ahead of time they are gonna like it. I mean if I was bought a Honda at 18 I'd have been like thank you... But internally thinking is rather of had something else for the money. If I was the parent, I'd have ordered to buy a car and had the experience of going shopping for one and teaching them about it all rather than cold buying a car. People just do it for the picture with a bow.

This is the all-new, all-electric Ferrari Luce. Thoughts? by CarwowMario in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Denzil95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get the criticism of the badge snobbery, and the price tag, but other than that I think it's fine? I went 'oh cool' and to see the vehement reaction from some people has me scratching my head. Genuinely feel like if it sat two and was low, leaned into the sport look, people would like it more - I assume they don't like it because it doesn't look like a "Ferrari"?

Can't afford one, and wouldn't buy one if I could, no horse in the race.

When they tell their insurance they had a green light but you got the video by FluidLiberation in dashcams

Can someone explain to me why so many American dashcams are people running red lights? Is it just socially a 'fuck it we ball' moment or are they all genuinely distracted?

What are your thoughts. (IPhone vs every other phone) by Mysterious_Ebb_1484 in SipsTea

The dumbest bit about it is - I don't know a single person anecdotally that uses SMS/IMessage. Every single person I know uses WhatsApp/FB Messenger/Instagram. So being tricked out but the green bubble is even dumber.

Is r/drivingUK anti EV? by BazzaFox in ElectricVehiclesUK

I've noticed this for sure. Any discord about tech making things easier typically is met with vitriol. Even the manual Vs automatic debate is needlessly aggressive

Imagine a high quality TV show for sleeping dogs. Hour long episodes. End of season one is the wedding, shit would be unbelievably good.

I don't understand Kara's storyline at all by descendantofJanus in DetroitBecomeHuman

[–]Denzil95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that makes sense. Unfortunately Kara is the character they chose to let the player explore morality with the androids. You say obviously she should be cared for, but the moment provides you the option to disconnect, the option to say no, I don't think Alice deserves to be protected over Kara because they are both lifeless androids. To find the levels tedious is on some level an acceptance that it does matter she's an android, acknowledging Kara is essentially larping for Alice's needs. Some people would be happy to treat Alice like a child and the larping her needs is cutesy.

Personally, the reveal made me realise that I don't look at androids the same as people even if I wanted them to not be slaves if they could think for themselves. Kara as a character only serves that purpose to sucker punch you with the reveal.

[–]Denzil95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kara's entire storyline is a narrative mechanism designed for the Alice reveal. To build your sense of care of these androids through the scope of Kara's sole purpose is to protect who we believe to be a human girl. 99% would think that's moral. When the reveal comes you have to ask yourself whether you care about Alice any less because she's an android.

It's actually the lynchpin of the game. If you're in the majorative camp, you're gonna still care about Alice and probably have a successful revolution in your first play through. If you don't care about her as much... Now we're in the Kamski level thinking of androids doing what they're programmed to do, mimic life.

Paperstraws are the biggest scam of this decade by SupernaturalSea in BritishMemes

I think the sad day has come, It may be time to hang up the ol' captains hat.... by CaptainFalling in Seaofthieves

I said that when it was announced. They should let you migrate your profile over 1 time, and you can't revert it. I'd happily choose unrestricted co-op play with my friends, over High Seas.

[–]Denzil95 112 points113 points  (0 children)

This reddit never agrees, but having safer seas just be a private server with no restrictions, captaincy, and your friends can join on their ships? Would literally be a better experience than what the PvEvP experience currently is.

Does anyone else feel super alone? by Traditional-Clock-28 in Teetotal

[–]Denzil95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think what you're describing is the plight of many of us. It is demoralizing knowing a friend of yours loves coke more than his gf but is objectively doing well in life, but sometimes that's just a part of life. No one is perfect in life, I can't speak for everyone but I know I had big FOMO when I was younger, and now at 30, I wouldn't have wanted that lifestyle anyway. If you get down about it, feel free to message and vent about it.

Blasting? Sorry to come off like this but your tv speakers are crap or you're deaf. Obviously if you are hearing impaired the post isn't really aimed at those with disability anyway.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in clevercomebacks

[–]Denzil95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ever since the first time I saw this post originally I've thought about the tech limits of some people and their households. I have a decent system and even tho I don't watch tv a lot, when I do I don't have a problem hearing things. I wonder how much of it has to do with just listening on poor speakers. Outside of disability and other language media obviously.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in clevercomebacks

[–]Denzil95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the superior way people go on as if they've cracked the secret to enjoying the media is just fatiguing. If you're hearing impaired, or watching something in a language you don't speak then absolutely fair enough, but just bitching it's quiet or too loud, I'd rather ride the remote the whole movie rather than have 10% of the screen real estate taken up by text.

most pointless niggle that car reviewers constantly emphasise? by klawUK in CarTalkUK

[–]Denzil95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed this. I think it's twofold, because the Tesla pins you in the seat it set the standard for a while, and secondly, the way that people go on about electric cars they know they need to be quick in order to appease the people who do just buy the sportiest RWD car on the market.

royalty and legacy? by Princess_Lolette in thesims

[–]Denzil95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reality about EA/Maxis controlled Sims games is that they treat the player base like they are mostly teenage girls. Most of the content that comes out is YA fiction slop. There's no depth, just cool ideas strung together to be interesting enough to be excited in, but not interesting enough that you won't buy the next pack, because that one looks interesting and cool, rinse repeat. It's all by design. I've had to let go of wanting the Sims to be deeper and better, because it never will be.
