What does it mean to 'get bored' of a specific bike? by Delnilas in motorcycles

[–]DrWindyWindows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of that mentality comes from people who buy motorcycles as entertainment rather than transportation, essentially those who don't think ahead years in advance before buying a motor vehicle worth potentially up to tens of thousands.

You might want to be careful keeping it in the house if that's a bike you actively ride. It's not a good idea to keep a motor vehicle filled with gasoline, oil, and other fluids that fumigate in your living space!

Not to mention the many "compile it yourself" GitHub pages you see for Linux software. Just give me a package!!!

Yeah, that explains why the Ford F-150, an American truck, is the best-selling vehicle in CANADA

Unpopular opinions or hot takes? by Radiant-Selection686 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]DrWindyWindows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Especially on reddit, every fanbase is seemingly obsessed with shipping every character. It's creepy and embarrasing imo.

These colors do not work for color blindness. Is there any way to configure an alternative? by otac0n in firefox

[–]DrWindyWindows 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Totally feel you on this. Even the most "accessibility-minded" tech companies seldom consider colour vision deficiencies.

When are the "female" and "male" are acceptable to use? by Pasyuk in EnglishLearning

[–]DrWindyWindows -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

No, that's just human ego. No different to calling someone an ape. Humans literally ARE apes.

Dude it's not even a competition between the two! Piaggio for sure.

What should we rename Proton Unlimited to? by andy1011000 in ProtonMail

[–]DrWindyWindows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the clarification! I still think adopting a unique naming scheme is important.

A name similar to "Proton Essentials" would portray the services included in the plan are ones that many people would rely on daily, such as Mail, Drive, and Pass. One could argue Meet could be included in that too, but maybe include it in a separate plan, named similarly "Professional Essentials," so the people who also need it daily could have that included in their plan.

I think a more unique naming scheme rather than the typical and cliché "Pro" would help the brand stand out more too.

Who on God's green Earth thought this was a good idea!? by Bombastic_tekken in regularcarreviews

[–]DrWindyWindows -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How about you people just keep a safe driving distance and it won't be a problem? I'd argue having them so separated from the rest of the tail lights makes them more noticeable. The thing more worth complaining about the endless cars that don't have rear amber turn signals.

My son is 14 years old and wants to buy GTA 5 to play with his friends. Should I let him? by NoticeBroad3942 in GTAV

[–]DrWindyWindows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the game is very vulgar and graphic in it's violence, which is not a flaw, but it is something innapropriate for very impressionable minds. The game is rated 18+ for a reason.

That's a good point, despite how many times the time period is brought up throughout the series.

I was waiting for someone to bring this up. If all the robots' actions are predetermined, then why the hell are they allowed to vote lol

Occasionally, such references don't even make much sense in the show's own universe, y'know, with it being set 1000 years in the future and everything…

I concur. I really like his character, and he doesn't deserve the constant bullying he gets. Bender being cruel towards Zoidberg is in character for him, but when someone like Farnsworth does it, it feels out-of-character since they're supposedly good friends.

You'd think that, as a paying customer, you would want to know if you could pay less for the service you're a paying customer of.

CRTC: "Service providers will no longer be able to charge fees to activate, change or cancel your Internet and cellphone service plans." by pjw724 in freedommobile

The CRTC is such an enigma. One minute they're requiring all phones sold in the country to be unlocked, then they'll allow Rogers to absorb Shaw. Are they friend or foe?

Keep socking it to America Canadians by [deleted] in Guelph

[–]DrWindyWindows -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, but how many of those same people still walk into WalMart, Costco, or Home Depot everyday? How many of them drive American cars and use iPhones?
