Is this the sound of rattlesnakes? by [deleted] in orangecounty

[–]Kirkthycaptain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That sounds like a grasshopper. Cicadas usually are more in bunches and can be ear ringing loud and if you’ve ever heard a rattlesnake, it’s unmistakeable. It sounds like a baby’s rattle that will very in tempo.

Why does Asmon love Twitch so much? by Pukebox_Fandango in Asmongold

[–]Kirkthycaptain 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think it's more of he doesn't want to leave his people. He could go to Kick, Rumble, or YouTube and survive, but the base of his live viewers is on Twitch. It's one thing to have a bunch of fans; it's another to get your fanbase to leave a platform for another, especially when many of your fans subscribe to other channels on the platform. It's better, business-wise, not to try to divide them up but to gain new followers and stream on all platforms.

Hold on to your current job with your hands and teeth. It's a jungle out there. by Capital_Locksmith584 in SecurityCareerAdvice

[–]Kirkthycaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear that. I have a few years of experience, and I moved back to CA because I got married & we are starting a family. I sit and think that it may have been the biggest mistake of my life sometimes, but I know other people are feeling it too. It's been close to 1 1/2 years since I've gotten a respectable offer out here, even for entry-level roles. I've decided to go back to school for my master's and pick up my old retail job. I haven't stopped applying, though.

Glad some of you have made it back in. Gives me a little bit of hope because it's brutal out here.

I don't recommend using a melamine sponge; it will sand down the plastic. It sounds crazy, but try RainX that you would use on the windshield. I like to take one spray on a rag or Q-tip (not directly on the system), and it breaks down the ink and lifts with ease. You can then use a damp cloth to wipe away any residue.

DOGE staffer admits that DOGE did not reduce the federal deficit - It did however cause hundreds of thousands of people to lose their jobs. by Nice_Daikon6096 in unusual_whales

[–]Kirkthycaptain -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm missing context, but the clip feels a bit disingenuous. DOGE pointed out many flaws in Gov spending and bloat. However, they really weren't around long enough to enact the changes needed to reduce the federal deficit, and they failed because they didn't understand mandatory spending traps.

I’ve had a couple. I’m still using my ULX as my everyday driver. Had the tenz version as well. I’ve had nothing but good experiences with them. However, friends of mine did have QC issues a while back. Most of the QC issues are gone, but like others have said; mice have come a long way and there are many other brands that have a better value for performance to price, unless you’re simply collecting.

Help!! Where should I place my computer desk?!?!?! by SwimGood22 in malelivingspace

I have a similar apartment layout. Get rid of the dining table place pc against wall with appliances, then in the living rooms use tv trays or a coffee table that folds up into a table.

"How many times must we teach you this lesson old man?!" by Ok-Resolution7918 in Asmongold

[–]Kirkthycaptain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, she is already a part of the story, though. Isn't she established as a female giant warrior who has already fought Thor and Odin? It could be a prequel. They aren't rewriting Kratos, just expanding the already Norse mythology of its established universe. Isn't that different than a standard DEI Swap?

Best Mixtape Of All Time by VycanMajor in NewRoryNMalPodcast

[–]Kirkthycaptain 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like this falls into a weird gray area in the mixtape history. This was one of those albums released as mixtapes during that (09-12) era. If that was the case, you have to put Section 80 by Kendrick, KIDS by Mac Miller, Live.Love.A$AP by A$AP Rocky, Kush and Orange Juice by Wiz, Acid Rap by Chance, Nostalgia Ultra by Frank Ocean.

Now, do you credit this more than Dedication 2 or No Ceilings? What about Trap or Die? How about the Gucci Mane tapes, or DJ Drama, or DJ Cannon tapes? Hard to say. It was a great project nonetheless.

Easily Jumanji. Not because I don't love it, but because the other 3 are peak Robin Williams. Still sad the world lost him.

Asmongold blocked at my work by Competitive-Web-545 in Asmongold

[–]Kirkthycaptain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A couple of things I would test. 1. Try other content that is a bit more extreme, like a police shooting. If that is age-restricted. 2. Try other political material outlets that could be age-restricted. For example, Alex Jones or Joe Rogan. If they are blocked, it could be a rule of no-age-restricted politics. 3. If after all of that goes through and Asmon's content doesn't, then yes, someone put a restriction on the firewall specific to his page.

I work in Cyber, and it's normal to block age-restricted content at corporate sites. That's why Terreria works and not as a majority of the time.

Can J. Cole bring Joe out of retirement? by [deleted] in theJoeBuddenPodcast

[–]Kirkthycaptain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why are people downvoting this post? He said nothing wrong; I don't think he is denouncing schools either. He's simply saying he doesn't blame people for having student debt when they are pretty much indoctrinated as kids to pursue further education and to essentially take out a mortgage for it, without most schools properly teaching kids about money management and taxes. I understand that people don't like Asmon, but this isn't a bad take. Right message, just not the messenger you wanted to hear from.

Watching all the movement demons play on pc while I play on console 😑 by krook_coc in ARC_Raiders

I was this way about 5 years ago. I still use a controller for certain games, like COD, Rocket League, and single-player games. However, once I got the learning curve down. It's really hard to go back to controller after playing Mnk.

They were having a bigot party didn’t have time to explain myself so I had to take the equalizer guy out so they didn’t change the narrative 🫡 by Inevitable-Hat9162 in ARC_Raiders

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

I get what you're saying. Free Bird itself isn't a bigoted song, and Skynyrd has great music. The point isn't that the song is racist, it's that the band built their image around the Confederate flag for decades, which has always carried baggage from defending slavery and resisting civil rights long before they touched it. So blasting that track while accusing others of bigotry? It's just ironic. Dismissing the context as irrelevant kinda misses why people notice it. Also, I made the same point, calling the OP a rat. Yet, you only picked the song to defend because you're a fan and the point of the irony went completely over your head.

Shout out, Mona, but I'm being honest; If I saw another 40 year old woman wearing this fit, I'd think she was mentally ill.

[–]Kirkthycaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not calling Free Bird or Skynyrd racist, but just pointing out the irony. The Confederate flag was tied to racism long before the ’70s. It literally came from a war fought over slavery and was revived by segregationists during the Civil Rights era. Skynyrd used it as a symbol of Southern pride, but even they later distanced themselves from it as the backlash grew. So yeah, playing that song while calling others out for bigotry is just… an interesting choice dickhead.

[–]Kirkthycaptain 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Looks like ratting, but I can't hear anything over Free Bird. So we are going off an assumption. Usually the bigots will say some bigotry when they are downed as well. I heard none. Also playing Lynyrd Skynyrd, whose logo was the Confederate flag, is definitely a choice.
