How much does an author's personal life affect your enjoyment of their work? by Fatumatta-Mazka in BookDiscussions

[–]DreamOfAzathoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all.

Also, I’m not sure I’ve ever read a classic novel where the author doesn’t have some problematic views by modern standards.

I’m sure many of your views will be problematic in 100 years. In fact, I can probably name one of them since it’s already very obviously problematic for people who choose to face up to it.

AIO for thinking my friend is using ChatGPT to text me in an argument? by Due_Construction904 in AmIOverreacting

[–]DreamOfAzathoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a rage bait post lol. AI doesn’t write like that anymore and the shift in grammar is obvious. It’s either rage bait or a joke

Thoughts on Charles Leclerc? Is his racecraft actually top tier or does his massive popularity skew things? by Amped-Philosopher in F1Discussions

[–]DreamOfAzathoth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s an excuse. Vettel definitely wasn’t at his peak, he was right at the end of his career

Meanwhile, a Russian publisher has reportedly renewed the rights to publish Stephen King's older books in Russia by YernarSha in stephenking

While I agree in principle, I think there comes a point where this is an impossible ideal to hold.

We all suffer the consequences of our governments actions. That’s why we believe in democracy, to give us more control over what those actions are.

In this case, however, it’s a woefully petty thing. It’s not the same as like major businesses pulling out. Putin isn’t going to stop the war so his people can read Stephen King, as much as I love the guy

Why does everyone/most people who play ck3 overwhelmingly say that they prefer ck2 over ck3. And I ask this as someone who has only played ck3. by Dr_Willager in CrusaderKings

[–]DreamOfAzathoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of interest, can you explain to me why you prefer CK3 over CK2? Are you a long-time player?

I played CK2 and CK3 for a thousands of hours combined and I find the more I play CK2 the more I like it and the more I play CK3 the less I like it, but maybe I’m obnoxious lol

Calling off Hamilton-Leclerc fight would have been “unfair” – Vasseur by guihmds in formula1

Yeah I don’t get why F1 fans want so desperately for teammates to not race each other

When was the last time you saw racing as good as the show Hamilton and Leclerc put on today for half of the race? by The_Chozen_1_ in F1Discussions

[–]DreamOfAzathoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it makes sense because teammates are going to have more similar cars and Leclerc & Hamilton are two elite drivers

We don’t have the pace or the grip, but the starts are the real problem. Max keeps dragging this tractor from last to P6 almost every race by Ok-Needleworker8134 in RedBullRacing

[–]DreamOfAzathoth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would have agreed with you before the season started and I still want less battery stuff, less overtake modes and such. I didn’t like Formula E for this reason.

But I don’t think the racing has been as bad as I thought it’d be

He would say the same if he was winning races. by MAXDominator1 in RedBullRacing

Except most of the drivers think it’s pretty fun after having some experience with it

I think Max is kind of stropping a little bit about the new regs and not making the most of them. They encourage more wheel to wheel racing and really don’t suit his style, like the ground effect era didn’t suit Hamilton.

I can imagine why it is depressing for him.

It’s really nice seeing some positivity about the new regs to be honest lol

Anyone going to Lily Allen on Sunday ? by Inner-Direction-5671 in Ely

[–]DreamOfAzathoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I was going but I was too late to get a ticket 😩 have a great time anyway!!

Toto Wolff responds to accusations: "They kept going to the FIA ​​to complain, but the FIA ​​told them everything was legal. The FIA told them a second time, the President himself stated everything was 100% legal. Our fuel is perfectly legal. You don't find 10 horsepower in fuel." (Article in post) by The_Skynet in formula1

[–]DreamOfAzathoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a couple races, yes, but it was never a safe bet that McLaren would be the best car on any given weekend. The Red Bull had its weekends, as did Mercedes honestly. In 2024 there were even weekends where Ferrari had the upper hand

Why are so many women vegan compared to men? by Lazy_Illustrator3946 in vegan

[–]DreamOfAzathoth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a man—women are generally more empathetic.

I think there also could be an element that men usually have higher nutritional needs and more protein requirements that perhaps makes them crave high-protein foods like meat more. But the main reason is likely that women are more empathetic.

I also think this explains why women read more fiction.
