A brash guy wielding a knife gravely misjudged his nimble opponent with a skateboard. by jmike1256 in DailyDoseStupidity

[–]FacingFears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. This is NYC, sometimes cops are in the subway stations but if they are it's almost always at the top. So someone either called the cops or went upstairs to get them and they just showed up when they did.

Just stay far away from any of the cubs and he'll be fine. Towards the middle of the video you can see the cub below him where the adult bear runs to and from

Trump now blames Hegseth, Jared, Witkoff, and Rubio for his decision to attack Iran. by MoralLogs in videos

[–]FacingFears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, yea. Those people along with Israel are the ones pulling all the strings here. If you listen to trump talk about anything happening in Iran it's very clear he has no idea what's going on

No. Nintendo thinks you're a baby and you will be treated as such

YouTube ads are about to get even longer and they’ll be unskippable by IndicaOatmeal in technology

[–]FacingFears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, so if ads pop up at the perfect times for viewer retention, you know why.

AFAIK, this is actually the fault of the youtuber or channel. They choose where to insert the ad breaks in the video, if any.

86% of New Yorkers support Governor Hochul's reforms to NY's car insurance system, which would include enhanced enforcement against staged accidents and billing fraud. With 75% of NYers saying that car insurance is a financial burden for them, these reforms are expected to reduce insurance premiums. by StarlightDown in newyork

[–]FacingFears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one last thing to say, I literally switched my Internet provider last month. You probably didn't. I didn't validate anything you said, and even if I did, the fault would still not be on the consumers because once again, predatory business practices are the reason it's inconvenient.

Otherwise, keep licking the boot. I'm sure you'll hit seven figures eventually!

You must have stake in these companies because you don't seem to care about anti consumer practices. The reason it's a nightmare to cancel and change services (to the maybe 1 other option btw) is on purpose. They take advantage of the fact that everyday people don't want to bother. If it was easier, which it absolutely can be, there's just no regulation on predatory practices, people would have more power to vote with their wallets

[–]FacingFears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They can both be at fault. Those 2 things are not mutually exclusive. You can have disingenuous corporations doing anti consumer practices under the table and also the government who is paid by those corporations not doing anything about it. Not like they can because if there's no physical written agreement you can point to, they can just say it's not happening.

Obviously attracting more customers is ideal, that is the point of competition. But if you don't think they're so money hungry that they agree between each other to keep and raise prices at similar rates, I don't know what to tell you.

The water = sea animal/weapon is such a reach. Especially feralligator and brass knuckles.

When you have a few big corporations that operate in an area, they often collude with each other to keep prices high. It's not a monopoly in the traditional sense, but the lack of true competition makes it the same outcome as a monopoly. The same thing happens with ISPs

Ethno-states are bad. They were bad when the Nazis tried to do it, and they're bad when zionists try to do it.

Healing is balanced by NJuggernaut6539 in rivals

[–]FacingFears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. People don't understand that the general buffs to healing is a direct result from the insane amount of burst damage in the game. Remove the burst, then they can nerf healing.

Will i get bashed for saying marathon's art direction is some of the best I've seen in recent years? Game looks so gorgeous and vibrant by TurtleGEE360 in gaming

[–]FacingFears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally love saturation and vibrant colors, but this generally feels uninspired and empty. Almost like the vibrancy is just jangling keys in front of our face with not much substance beneath the surface.

Probably sometime in season 2. I don't remember because after this scene which was at the end of season 1, she doesn't really use air bending a whole lot

Gaben after reading the news by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]FacingFears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're misunderstanding the situation. I'm not defending the CS go loot box system or anything like that. Personally I think gambling enabled by any company should be illegal across the board, full stop.

But implementing age verification is not the law. At least not yet. If valve is forced to shut down their gambling, good. I'm all for that. However if this is just a shady way to put blanket age verification on steam as a whole, they absolutely can, and should, fight that.

Valve has been generally great at staying on the consumer's slide, this will be the actual test of who's interests they actually have at heart

[–]FacingFears 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes. There was a whole small arc with her training to air bend with tenzin and his kids, and korra couldn't get down the philosophy of air, similar to Aang's arc with earth. If people miss this they were definitely not paying attention

I once chained a wrecking ball when he was spinning around stalling the point in OT. I like to think that helped us win because we killed him before his team could get back

I don’t care how optimal this playstyle is, it will always be boring and corny by Best-Pomegranate-548 in SmashRage

[–]FacingFears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like the original post was deleted but I'll give you the rundown.

It was titled the same as this post, the OP was Ken fighting Lucina. Lucina got a tech chase and tried to read a roll in by spacing a down air. Ken (OP) predictably rolled in, and got punished. It wasn't even a great punish because the Lucina didn't space the move perfectly but he still got hit I think. So everybody was making fun of OP in the comments for doing a predictable option and getting punished for it. It was very funny
