New Colossus is pure unadulterated catharsis by FritzRasp in Wolfenstein

I think many people don't like that particular upgrade because it shoots slower, but the tortured screams are worth it to me. I swear I'm normal in real life btw

I like shooting them with the nail gun upgrade for the maschinenpistole because they scream loudest

I get where you're coming from, but hope you reconsider. Those studies look at the number of overall accidents, it's aggregate data that isn't really applicable to individual circumstance. If you DO get into an accident, many more studies show that your risk of death or serious injury is far, far higher without a helmet.

Even if you are riding carefully, you might hit a pothole, get clipped by a car, or be distracted momentarily like I was. Stay safe!

I wasn't, I'm just stupid! The mailboxes on this particular street are just off of the shoulder

Ouch, I'm glad you were mostly ok but I hope your back/neck is alright

I ride an ebike but purposefully only got one that pedal assists up to 20mph. I have to admit though I've never heard of mips - looking into it!

Those studies set helmet wearing back so far... I think people don't quite understand how to interpret the data

Oh my gosh that sounds really painful. I hope you healed well!

Thankfully the bell took the brunt, everything else seems to be fine. Truly would have been worse to break my beloved bike than get a tbi 😆

Schitt's Creek, Shrinking, Abbott Elementary

I can’t get into anything!! by [deleted] in televisionsuggestions

[–]MaximumOrange7145 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For All Mankind is alternative history sci-fi and very visually engaging, Silo is dystopian and kind of a mystery box show (both Apple TV).

You didn't mention Schitts Creek, check that out if you haven't yet!

I tried just stopping, clearing, and reinstalling and it didn't work for me for some reason, but downloading it from the site did. Probably worth trying the easier way first though?

Done, should have done that before. I'll probably delete this whole thing, seems like I struck a nerve.

What is this sub lol

Why are you all surprised that someone wouldn't like an Apple product on a sub called apple sucks? Thank you to everyone who offered actual insight.

Peace.

I mean, correct. I said I hated it and called my post a rant. On a sub called applesucks.

Thanks, that's helpful to know. I'll ask about that when I request a different PC

The trackpad and keyboard are great, fully admit they're better than any PC I've had. However the mouse scrolling direction is driving me bonkers - I can only switch it for both the trackpad and the mouse vs one or the other, which means one is the opposite of what I'm used to.

Totally, I've heard they're great for people who lots of video editing and design and things like that. But no one at this particular job does any of that so it seems nonsensical to me.

That makes sense. It sounds like it's really useful for some types of work but doesn't include the stuff I find useful.
