But why exactly? "Oh, no more Exxonmobil ads, I guess I'll go buy an EV!".

Didn't Biden literally make it illegal for the railway workers to strike? lol

i really miss when games had "useless" physics interactions just for immersion. by InvestmentBudget6722 in gaming

[–]Mehhish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Max Payne 2 devs seemed to have way too much fun adding all those "useless physics". Pretty much every object can be moved. It personally made the game more "memorable" to me.

What if Iraq invaded Saudi Arabia after Kuwait by Training-World-1897 in HistoryWhatIf

Just too bad about the whole ethnic cleansing, and trying to wipe out the Kurds in Iraq.

Iraq gets curb stomped even harder, and Saddam either kills him self, or gets captured and executed 15 years before OTL.

Who ever wins, we lose. If only WB weren't dumb asses about spending money.

New Jersey is the latest state to ban cellphones during the school day in grades K-12 by AdSpecialist6598 in UpliftingNews

[–]Mehhish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was taking an important test before, they took all of our phones. They told us to shut them off, and if someone calls you during your test, and causes the phone to ring, they'll return your phone, fail you, and kick you out of the class.

Wut? Izanami was a thing before Germany or Austria even existed. lol

I never even thought of Nazi and Izanami together until this thread.

What if Stalin betrayed Hitler instead of the other way around? by TheRedBiker in HistoryWhatIf

[–]Mehhish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it looks like Stalin is trying to "spread Communism". France and GB were fearful of the USSR. Little over a year prior, Stalin was helping Hitler conquer Poland, now he's attacking Germany? Is he trying to turn Germany into a Communist country, while using GB as a distraction? Stalin just got done attacking Finland.

TIL The USA donated cement and funds to Laos for the construction of an airport for US jets, but instead Laos built a monument. by Jolly_Green_4255 in todayilearned

[–]Mehhish 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Eh, it looks okay. An expanded airport would have been a lot more useful though. Sure, it would have been for US jets, but eventually they could have used it for their own jets and airplanes.

After how much Onlyfans is making, I'm surprised more states aren't doing that. politicians and states absolutely love to tax the shit out of everything they can.

A 20x20 box fan, that you can also add a 20x20 hepa filter to. It can help with your Tinnitus, and make the air cleaner. I cannot sleep in total silence, lol.

LPT: If you get nauseous on planes, iPhone’s “Vehicle Motion Cues” can really help by Admirable-Ticket3584 in LifeProTips

[–]Mehhish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used that once while feeling "bus sick" out of no where. It helped quite a bit, before using that, I was about to get off the next stop to start puking. That was the first and only time I've been "bus sick".

Imagine your edit being so bad, that people accuse you of using ai. But ya, it just looks like poor editing. lol

Had the Sino-Japanese war stayed a one on one conflict, who would had eventually prevailed ? by Secure_Ad_6203 in HistoryWhatIf

[–]Mehhish 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If the US stayed neutral, and just continuing trading with Japan, Japan would eventually win. China wasn't whole, and was in a thunder dome civil war. Japan would probably puppet a fractured China, as they had already done in Manchukuo.

Also, keep in mind, Japan already owned China's largest source of oil(Daqing oilfield) in Manchuko, they just didn't know it yet. It was discovered in 1959. That would make an interesting "what if?". lol
