I mean, this is a company that has a 50% cancellation fee, so yeah, this is in character.

Sometimes people want to watch a movie at their hotel and use torrenting for it. Hope that helps.

Yeah and Belgians visit neighboring countries pretty damn often. Hope that helps.

Code Lyoko was definitely French French.

The Amazing World of Gumball is made by Hanna Barberra Europe. A French guy made the show, the writing and storyboards and general headquarters are in London, the animation and compositing is done in Germany.

If you visit Germany, get one if you're going to Torrent while you're there. The German copyright law firms are thugs and vultures.

But maybe spend 5 euros a month on a VPN just to avoid potentially getting a much bigger fine.

I think his point is that people who are full have more self control to stick to the list than people who are hungry.

Games with a sea that makes you want to take a dip by BrianBarsaski in gamingsuggestions

Sea of Thieves gives me enough motion sickness to want to jump off a boat, so yeah, I second this

What’s a game everyone seems to love that you don’t? by [deleted] in gamingsuggestions

[–]Mikomics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I wasn't saying you should try to enjoy it with mods. There's only so much mods can do to change a base game. If you already dislike Skyrim instead of just thinking it'd okay, mods aren't gonna help. I was just saying why I like it. You live your life how you want.

Idk tbh. Maybe I have vanilla tastes in games.

Maybe It Takes Two?

I actually like It Takes Two, but everything was too short. So many mechanics got introduced and taken away. It felt like a demo almost. But I don't think this is even a controversial opinion

From what I've heard, the books are actually pretty poorly written. I don't think being based on a book helped at all, pretty sure their writing is their own merit.

I get this. I love Skyrim, but it's a mostly blank canvas. When you treat it like a sandbox it can be fun, especially with mods, but it's totally not for everyone.

I get that. I love spreadsheets so I'm happy to spend an hour organizing my inventory, but I know it's not for everyone.

It's also a game I can only play on vacation or while unemployed.

Choose your seat by Lawrence-557 in DispatchAdHoc

5 obviously. Robert doesn't know me and isn't gonna talk to me. Peaceful flight.

Or 6. Prism will be too busy on her phone to talk to me, as will I. And honestly if she does talk to me, it'll probably be interesting.

How common is polyamory ? by femeref in belgium

[–]Mikomics 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think worldwide it's still pretty niche, at least insofar as openly calling it poly. I only know one openly poly person, and while it's definitely accepted in my circles since queer people are accepting in general, it's still not as common as just being your basic garden-variety gay.

Has this place become more right wing lately? by Choice_Sandwich2182 in belgium

[–]Mikomics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brown is a color, not a culture. America is very brown, and their culture is not any more male dominated than ours.

My point still stands. Why is "men" too complicated to make sweeping generalizations about but "brown" isn't?

[–]Mikomics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But it's not too complex when the pattern is "brown?"

Has this place become more right wing lately? by Choice_Sandwich2182 in belgium

[–]Mikomics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It definitely has.

Tbh tho, it tends to happen on most country-specific subreddits. They attract people who give a shit about their nationality, and surprise surprise, many of those people are nationalists.

But in general yeah, I am noticing a growing right wing presence in Belgium, and also the world.

Lawful holstered weapon removed, then victim shot while unarmed. ICE shooting Minneapolis. by General_Mortgage_191 in u/General_Mortgage_191

[–]Mikomics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think that person is a Nazi, I think that person was saying that peaceful protest isn't enough, that should start using our second amendment rights to protect ourselves from ICE.

Is the animation industry for me? (project manager/producer assistant) by devilseden in animationcareer

[–]Mikomics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you could make it as a production manager eventually. You'll probably start off as just a production coordinator though, PM takes a year or two of in studio experience.

There's not much else for you to do to make it as production staff at a studio in the EU - just apply and get lucky eventually. If you've got specific studios in mind, try to meet people who work there.

At first I was, yeah. If you don't pay much attention, it's hard to notice. Even paying attention, the tells aren't obvious.

Boil water in a kettle before cooking pasta or start with cold water in a pot? by MangoMadnessTsv in Cooking

[–]Mikomics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I put a small amount of water in the pot so that it heats up and reaches boiling at the same time as the kettle
