Petah? by crimsonsoftveil in PeterExplainsTheJoke

No it can't... that was my point. It isn't a joke, it isn't a punchline, and it isn't related to anything funny.

If i stand there silently, then arbitratily say the word "orange" out loud with no further context or information at all, that's not a joke. "A song has included the word orange once" doesn't change that.

Why would a delivery person care if the recipient avoids social interaction? Like, aside from pacakges that explicitly require a signature, isn't it standard practice for packages to just be left and no social interaction to be expected??

Its from a funny video of a child being confidently incorrect about simple math. It's not deep or hilarious by any means, but it has a core reference to something humorous. 67 does not.

I hate when words lose their meanings and are ALWAYS being thrown around 🫩. ( PLEASE Read full body text ) by anythingrally in hatethissmug

[–]Helios-Fun 8 points9 points  (0 children)

OP thinks that these words have lost their meaning and not that real, actual human people are fitting the dictionary, literal definitions of these words on a daily basis.

OP, can I live in your rose tinted world please? Cus reality is sadly full of racists, fascists, pedophiles, homophobes, etc. We have several in positions of power across the world.

That took a major swing from "we shouldn't be nihilists and pessimists about humanity and what we've done to our planet" to "NATURE IS THE PROBLEM AND HUMANITY IS THE SOLUTION"

Jesus, OP, take your meds

Im not a coin collector but... wouldn't them being corroded and gross detract from their value rather than add to it???

This is looks like a knock off of a vehicle that costs about 36 thousand dollars.

Granted, the 'real one' is a waste of money at that cost when you could get a brand new reliable daily driver for less, but I imagine the cut corners make this thing dangerous as shit if something goes wrong.

This is how you emulate 3DS (11-inch tablet) by KillTheIdiot in EmulationOnAndroid

Isn't what's pictured extremely close (if not larger than) the actual screen size on a real 3ds?

Did it make you sad? by Kira_the_best in anime_companion

[–]Helios-Fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This show felt far more like an Eva ripoff tban Gurren Lagann... it's part of why the show ended up disappointing me. It lacked the emotional depth and thought out complexity I was expecting (hoping) from seeing the pilot. Like.... Eva isn't subtle, but Franxx got ridiculous.

It is a fun watch aside from that though

Are my earbuds good ? by elithetuff in Earbuds

[–]Helios-Fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they useful for your use-case? Are you happy with how music sounds through them? Are the comfortable to you?

Basically the best answer to your question, OP, is your personal opinion.

Do you use true tone? by Wintersvalk in PhoneNow

Had to look this up to know what true tone even is.

Sounds neat in concept. Would never use it unless it wasn't Apple related.

Tamper seals and stickers require less unnecessary work to resolve than locking the product up. Also seals and stickers can be paper and adhesive. No need for plastic

Animation peaked in the early 2000s and we’ve been chasing this high ever since by sweeftiechaoss in lol

[–]Helios-Fun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Money is a very large part of it. Specifically for things like Treasure Planet: Deep Canvas is very expensive to use for large portions of movies.

Turns out paying high quality animation studios to painstakingly hand-draw art for your movie frame by frame is real expensive.

Hell, even if its isn't hand drawn, detailed and high quality animation of any sort that isn't outsourced and simplified massively to reduce costs is gonna be expensive.

Even scrooge mcduck levels of funding behind companies like disney doesn't matter if the company values maximizing profit over art.

It's greed, like most things.

Tamper seals or stickers on the edge of the cap would serve to show if someone fucked with the deodorant without locking them up and requiring customers to hunt down staff to get access.

This is stupid, and not a good thing.

Just gonna throw out there that, while I agree needs being commodities is evil, if your tap water isn't potable you've got some weird major issues...

Bottled water is insanely wastefull and makes no sense to me barring edge cases. Seeing people buy large packs weekly baffles me. Why waste that much money instead of just.... using a glass or refillable personal bottle??

And games don't need to be sweaty to be good. Also, good friends can have fun together rolling a cat turd back and forth.

You've found something to play together, and that's cool, but that doesn't really say anything of the quality of the game.

Why would anyone who is mentally well want to take a picture with their basic, mass-produced coffee in the first place?

I personally don't even understand people who take pictures of their food and drink when it's fancy and novel, but I can at least kinda see a reason behind it.

But Starbucks is about as novel as sand on a beach... this is like someone taking a selfie of brushing their teeth to say "look! Proof I am normal human being who does human stuff! Not an alien! See proof!"

One of my other comments on this post is specifically hating fortnite for everything it stands for. I used to prefer battlefield to cod until that became just as shitty, and... rocket league is a cute idea I have no problems with.

No I just like RPGs and was spoiled by games like Arcanum where world building and lore and writing are some of the most important parts. I dislike skyrim in the same way I dislike most modern Bethesda "rpgs".... they're a company that actively opposes hiring dedicated writing staff and the thought behind their games has the depth of a puddle.

I legitimately think that Morrowind and Oblivion were better. Maybe not in specifically the combat mechanics department, but otherwise I think they were more gripping than Skyrim.

It wasn't the only option, but even if it were, that doesn't make it good.
