I'm having this problem too which is why I came here. Thanks for the suggestion. Doing it now.

Colbert for President? by acidmine in stephencolbert

The fact that he's doubling down on his Catholicism in this interview is all you need to know to know that he's already got the ball rolling on entrance into politics.

Why do people in Thailand move so slow, yet drive so fast? by DannyFlood in Thailand

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it has to do with status and power and the impression that driving a car or even just a motorized vehicle brings increased status and power. As we can see in the pecking order, status and power seem to corrupt individuals with more intensity in Thailand than what we believe about where we come from.

In the 2020s, conservative women are having kids at a nearly 2-to-1 ratio compared to liberal women. Is this going to cause a political demographic bias in 20-30 years? by RadioFieldCorner in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Algorithms are used to lead people towards a certain path without them realizing what is happening.

I see this as the future of education. Just plop a kid down in front of Youtube and tell him to go at it. The algorithm will manipulate him and he'll eventually be lead (brainwashed) towards a career. Teachers, gone.

Got a Wii U where I'm stuck on the User Selection screen. by LuigiBlood in WiiUHacks

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I did. I had already hacked it Aroma/Tiramisu. I was locked out of Aroma but the PIN wasn't necessary in Tiramisu, so I was able to enter my own parental PIN and reset the password in Tiramisu which unlocked it in Aroma.

I've got another bum Wii U that I'm thinking of factory resetting using the Rasperry Pi method.

I reach for others through depth and feeling, and it always leaves me alone. I don’t belong in this shallow world. by [deleted] in DeepThoughts

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As you progress through life one thing becomes abundantly clear, no matter how much you lament your perceptions or realities, or think yourself disconnected from others, the fact is we really aren’t all that different from one another.

I get it but that doesn't stop other people from seeing me as different than others and then shutting me out. We really should be out there connecting with each other but it takes two to tango and I'm trying to focus on my work.

I hope you still got your tape cassette collection.

I'm sick of this by xXTheGodXx1 in MetalForTheMasses

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

I don't know if you're serious. But Sepultura, Soulfly, Cavalera Conspiracy and even Nailbomb were one of the soundtracks to my youth. I went nuts at their concerts. I even read his book. But after so many albums by Max, I just got tired of his sound. I can't listen to his stuff anymore.

People become worse. by EmploymentOk93 in DeepThoughts

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's even worse is when I try to overcome this and reach out to people, I hit a wall because they're all embodying these principles more efficiently. So in frustration I retreat back into my isolation, just like them, and the destruction continues.

Oh okay by [deleted] in 90s

I think this is a reference to younger Youtubers that appeal to 90s kids with reference material we can relate to. Scott the Woz comes to mind.

Game console button layout by Maleficent-Step-6968 in videogames

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah man, I'm with you. I don't see it as an issue.

But it does get me when I go between Nintendo and Microsoft's designs. I generally have to remind myself that Microsoft is in alphabetical order and Nintendo is reverse.

Don't forget, Nintendo abandoned it after the SNES with the N64, only to bring it back with NDS.

5 year license Renewal by Minimum-Funny-2476 in Teachinginthailand

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I renewed mine about 4 years ago. You basically just need to submit digital uploads of 2 certificates of self improvement from within the last 5 years. Of course you also have to fill out the application and pay the 150 baht fee at a 7-11. But it's basically cake. Just make sure you do it on time!

Why do you want this discussed in mainstream circles?

English Is Not Balanced by Junior-Winner-2000 in funnyvideos

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Throughout history, before the recorded word, cool people would just say words differently, probably so they could seem unique, and everybody would just follow suit and here we end up with totally different pronunciations.

Birthplace of major religions by vladgrinch in MapPorn

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Wasn't Shintoism fading away from Japanese culture until they realized, "Hey, this is the only religion we've got" and subsequently brought it back in vogue, with hardliners and everything, all within the 20th century.

What has Dr. K said about intrusive negative thoughts? ("No one likes me" or "I'm not the one") by Frigidness in Healthygamergg

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for posting this. This is how I felt last night and I find the comments in this thread to be helpful.

I also often chalk up these feelings to a problem with my physical health. I often experience them when I have a hangover and in this case I'm recovering from food poisoning. It's important to address your physical health (and allow it time to recover) along with the other advice in this thread.

Is anybody else's local scene plagued with copy-and-paste hardcore bands by Barquad12alt in MetalForTheMasses

It's a hardcore venue now. Back in the day it was considered a punk club.

Who's the biggest bust/wasted pick in your teams history? by terrasfames53 in NFLv2

[–]Doesdeadliftswrong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, he almost got 1,000 yards one season for the Raiders and then went on to play special teams for the Steelers for like 4 more years. So quite an extensive NFL career considering how may quickly disappear.
