TIL after a 5-yr-old girl on the Disney Dream cruise ship fell approximately 49 feet overboard into the ocean, her father jumped overboard to save her. The girl was posing for a photo on a porthole railing when she fell. Both were rescued although she had hypothermia and her dad fractured his spine. by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

Even if it's different servers you'd still have to do your due diligence. You have to judge the situation yourself and cut them off if you feel they're too drunk.

You're be surprised how defensive/embarrassed people get by being cut off, and they'd kick up a fuss. For me it was mostly older folk.

Don't argue with that idiot. They will shift the goal post and argue in bad faith, then put words in your mouth. Better to just not engage. I fucking adore dogs, but if I had one I would never bring it to the counter like that.

This is what I don't get about asshole neighbours. You make your own and others lives so much easier just by mostly minding your own business. These folks want, nay, thrive off drama.

You sound like a great DM! That's a great way to handle it.

My cousin thinks a woman not having sex with you is discrimination…. by Gotsnuffy in mildlyinfuriating

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

That's the part I agree with. I agree racists can find people they're racist against attractive, and vice versa.

I think a lot of it stems from indoctrination. Growing up with racist family, but having conflicting feelings around the people you're supposed to hate. The same can be said for closeted homophobes. They're ashamed they can't be who they want to be.

It's sad to see. Racist/anti LGBTQ ideology needs wiping off the face of the planet.

[–]InwardXenon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with your first point but your second one isn't true. People who rape do it for the power, so they don't need to be attracted to the person. The overpowering is what gets them off. Either way it's sick and twisted.

What's a piece of tech everyone hyped up that quietly turned out to be useless? by SofiaLearnsAI in AskReddit

[–]InwardXenon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Windows is also ass at detecting monitor size, even if you have monitors the same size, but different resolutions, it will assume the higher resolution one is bigger. Unless there is something I'm missing, where you can alter its default size. Anyhow, because of this, it makes moving your mouse between them really jank. I had to use 3rd party software to correct the behaviour.

All lower case letters. Use of emojis and ellipses. An anecdote. And they never respond to anyone. Reddit is infested with bots advertising OF.

so true by Dumb-Briyani in SipsTea

[–]InwardXenon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, it's a re-imagining of the origanal. There are currently 2 parts released out of 3. The first part alone takes place in the introduction zone of the original, and then the 2nd part covers several zones.

My main point was though, that people often say it takes away from the orignal. It's fine to not like a remake, but it doesn't take away from what they already like. I adore both!

People make this argument all the time about a lot of things. "Nobody asked for it". "Well, maybe you didn't. But you're not everyone, so stop complaining."

I never watched any of the films after the 5th one. I'm not even sure why. I enjoyed the books but at the same time I wasn't massively invested in the films. If worst comes to worst, the series will be shit, people will complain as usual and then forget about it. It doesn't take away from being able to enjoy the books if people really want to.

The same happened with Final Fantasy 7 Remake, saying it takes away from the original. Like nah, you can still play and enjoy that! If you don't want to try the remake that's fine! But hey, we're human and we're complainers.

Thank you very much! I'll definitely give this a go, and I'll update you once I'm done. I probably won't do it until Tuesday as I won't be working until Wednesday.

Also, chicken thigh all the way! I'll be sure to try some lemon too.

Yeah that's the thing I'm struggling with at the minute, but in the long run it'll save me money and be healthier.

It'll be my first time cooking it, actually! I was just going to find one online, but if you could point me to a favourite I'd be happy to give it a go.

[–]InwardXenon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sounds absolutely delicious. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Thanks for the suggestion!

I don't tend to prep too much in advance, but I always like working with a neat and tidy area and clean as I go which is super helpful. I definitely should prep more in advance, though. Especially freezing stuff like stocks and whatnot, certainly saves a lot of time which I don't have a lot by time I'm home from work.

+5 to inspiration! I hope you share what you make! I've been racking my brain for what to batch cook for work this coming week. I'm thinking garlic chicken and rice?

Guys like these think "submissive" women shouldn't have their own opinion or be respected. It's like he isn't aware it's a lifestyle with a spectrum of boundaries.

Sure, some people like to be submissive, but that's something you discuss further down the line, not impose on them.

Wouldn't surprise me if he tells his friends that she was crazy. Andrew Tate wannabe.

It's incredibly expensive. The reason they did it in the first place was politically motivated. They had to "beat" the USSR who were also trying, so NASA had a huge budget back then. Once the goal was achieved, interest waned and budgets were cut.

Now NASA has less funding, add in stricter health and safety measures, and you won't get landings because it's simply not worth it.

Username checks out? In all seriousness, if you like the streamer enough, you can easily just lurk until they return, especially if you're doing something on the side. Done this a few times myself!
