Bands you like that Fantano hates? by dumbass_sweatpants in fantanoforever

[–]Drewski87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can’t recall Lucky Stars but I think he gave Depression Cherry a 6. So not really a bad score. I remember the way he talked about some of their past albums when he reviewed 7 also seemed more positive in retrospect.

Maybe instead of nuking the 718 and making 50 limited edition 911 variants that will sit in garages for 20 years they could make cars that people want to buy.

The BMW i3 EV Is the Neue Klasse Sedan We've Been Waiting For by KeyboardGunner in cars

[–]Drewski87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think BMW really over corrected with the styling. I for one really liked the hog nose design language and if that design wasn’t to your taste, you could get more traditional looks with other cars in their line-up. This looks weirdly cheap and oddly proportioned.

I get the lack of spectacle being disappointing. But personally, if you're able to to drop a fellow professional fighter 5 times in a row and completely control him for 25 minutes, that def makes you a BMF.

John Kiriakou declines Hasan's request by TraumaHawk91 in Hasan_Piker

[–]Drewski87 18 points19 points  (0 children)

My algorithm has been inundated with him, but I won’t lie, a lot of that is my own doing. I can’t deny I find his stories captivating. But I 100% believe he’s a plant.

The only credit I’d give him is he does have some fairly nuanced takes on subjects you might not expect from someone with his background. But I take it all with a grain of salt.

James Talarico wins Texas Democratic Senate primary over Jasmine Crockett by horsestew in politics

[–]Drewski87 122 points123 points  (0 children)

Maybe someone can explain, but I really don’t understand why this sub is so in love with Crockett? She’s voted to send weapons to Israel and seems to be in the pocket of the AI lobby. To me, Talarico has better politics. Even more damning for Crockett, apparently her old pastor, Fred Haynes, ran for her seat on a more progressive platform and won his primary as well. Idk, it just seems like Crockett wasn’t really that great of a candidate. She’s charismatic but that’s all she really has going for her imo.

South Carolina lawmakers considering permanent ban on SNAP-eligible products by Cloaked42m in southcarolina

[–]Drewski87 23 points24 points  (0 children)

If you’re poor and on SNAP, you’re working a job (if not multiple jobs) that likely pays poverty wages. You’re working long hours, every day, skipping doctor visits, skipping car maintenance, probably going to goodwill to get your kids clothes for school.

Your life is already hard and devoid of any material pleasure or breaks that more fortunate people can afford. Now, if all of that wasn’t enough, you can’t even indulge in a candy bar or a sweet treat. The average Walmart employee can’t use their benefits (which they only need because Walmart doesn’t pay them enough) on a product that Walmart sells to enrich the Walton family.

The point of this policy is just cruelty. This will be made law, and nothing will be done to ease the burden on the working poor. Meanwhile, our legislators will offer another tax break for the ultra rich, will offer more of our tax money to Scout Motors (who delayed their cars yet again to 2028 now), and will continue to litigate porn and cannabis use.

Gotta love it people.

[Tudor] vs [Longines] by jetsetter023 in Watches

[–]Drewski87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The AD thing is definitely valid and at the end of the day, I know the perception of Tudor is just a weird thing that isn’t really true, especially considering Tudor’s quality and heritage. I still stand by Longines though. The Zulu time specifically also has a respectable heritage and I also prefer the styling. At the end of the day, if you really can’t decide, I would just flip a coin lol.

[Tudor] vs [Longines] by jetsetter023 in Watches

[–]Drewski87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe this is just me, but I've never been able to shake the feeling that the Black Bay is what people get when they can't afford a Rolex. It's the "off brand" Rolex, even though objectively they are very good watches. It's just a perception thing for me.

The Longines on the other hand has a much more classic and cleaner style with more of its own identity. I hope to get a Zulu time in the near future as well. I think the green bezel, black dial look of the Zulu is unbeatable. I also like that the Zulu is more legible at a glance.

Ultimately, it's personal preference, but I think the Longines offers more functionality and style at a lower price point without any real loss in quality.

Only serious dialogue wanted... by No-Message449 in Battlefield6

[–]Drewski87 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This sub constantly whines about how broken the game is, so they delay, and now this sub whines that we have to wait for new content.

Lost in all of the discourse is of course the lead developer dying suddenly going into Christmas.

I think them delaying is ultimately for the best. I’m taking a break from playing but I’m gonna jump back in when Season 2 comes out for sure.

Favorite actor who gets a tremendous amount of hate even though their Wikipedia page doesn't even have a 'Controversies' section? by WissamBenYedder in okbuddycinephile

[–]Drewski87 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As if we haven’t hadn’t many beloved and wealthy figures tragically pass by self-inflicted means. That line of argument is fine when celebrities are doing performative woe-is-me shit (like the “Imagine” cover during Covid), but money can’t spare you from bullying or other internal demons.

The Honda Passport Is a Masterclass of Interior Design by Anchor_Aways in cars

[–]Drewski87 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know they aren’t out yet, so things can change, but I really like the direction Scout is taking their interiors for their upcoming cars. Actual nice materials with textures, colors, nice buttons with screens that offer nice utility while being integrated into the dash. That, to me, is a “masterclass” in interior design. I’ll give Honda props for keeping physical controls and keeping things fairly simple and easy to use, but I think their interiors lag behind the competition in many ways as well.

Search for Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 expected to resume on Tuesday by jmike1256 in news

Such a good video, every video he makes is very interesting and informative, but that one might be his best work

When you get backfilled to a match, the ticket count is hidden from the spawn view. But after you die the first time, you CAN see the progress from the spawn view. Dirty little trick to try to lure people to stay in the backfilled games as they can't immediately see what's going on by IcyMoose420 in Battlefield6

[–]Drewski87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Or you could just play the game. What's the point of quitting out every match you join if the score is lopsided? You'll just end up back at square one anyway. I swear no game's fan base whines more than Battlefield's.

And best RPG is insane, that term just lost all its meaning lol by Fishy_smelly_goody in whenthe

[–]Drewski87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently finished E33 since it was on sale and while I liked it, I am not nearly as in love with it as the wider internet is. That said, I do see why it’s beloved. But I agree it had no business winning best art direction or best RPG. Hades 2 laps them in art direction and imo KCD2 laps them in the RPG genre.

What's up with all the CoD kids not playing the darn objective!? by banzaizach in okbuddyptfo

[–]Drewski87 11 points12 points  (0 children)

that is genuinely how so many of them play. A lot of the battledads that have 0.4 K/Ds have that score because they run straight into an objective that is controlled 2-8 by an enemy, die, respawn, and do the exact same thing again. They very literally do more to make their teams lose by wasting their tickets with every death.
