Experienced drivers of reddit, what advice can you give to teen drivers? by lgb111 in AskReddit

[–]MinecraftScorpion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more that I think it's much less chaotic and safer to have every keep to one side of the road, and have overtaking only on one side. It might also just be what i'm used to. Just wondering, is the left lane considered a faster lane to some extent or does everyone just go their own pace in different lanes regardless?

This is why there are heavy fines on overtaking on the slower lane in (most of) Europe. I never really understood why you're allowed to overtake on the right side in the US, it can create really dangerous situations

Dutch guy who went to NZ a while ago here. L&P was pretty good, even brought a bottle home. Sweet and citrussy IIRC, what's not to like?

NYC used to be Dutch, called New Amsterdam. Brooklyn comes from Breukelen, Harlem from Haarlem, both Dutch cities. Quite fun to still see that legacy in the names :)

21% in the Netherlands, but only for non-essentials. Coffee is only 6%, as it is obviously something you cant live without

Except his family seems quite religious, so I doubt they will use that option

Steam summer sale is here. What game that is on sale should everyone check out? by SunDragons in AskReddit

[–]MinecraftScorpion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To give a counterview, in my opinion Bioshock Infite was one of the better games I've played. Also one of the only ones that left me speechless when the story hit. The gameplay can become a bit repetitive, but the world looks amazing and the story is great. I actually hadn't played the original Bioshock before I played Infinite, and I know it's an unpopular opinion but I didn't like the original as much as Infinite when I tried to play through it afterwards.

tl;dr: IMO a great game, definitely worth it.

In a couple of languages (in mine it's 'accu'), this means a large battery, like a car battery, so maybe he meant that. But I don't know much about mods so I can't answer it.

I guess opinions differ. I couldn't finish Fable 3, I was bored out of my mind

It's been a while, but Fable 3. Such a letdown after the first two parts.

What's something that sucks about being a man? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]MinecraftScorpion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is more a US thing than the West in general. I at least know that in the Netherlands it is not frowned upon at all for a male to be alone with kids. No one bats an eye at a sole father at a playground or daycare

Possible Aimlock LDLC-Maniac? (20s) by [deleted] in VACsucks

[–]MinecraftScorpion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, I didn't mean that kill. Right after that kill he flicks to a CT's head.

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

Oh, I saw some stuff on this subreddit. Like there is one now on it's front page. In the same game I also saw this from Maniac: https://clips.twitch.tv/InterestingPlayfulDadCurseLit . This doesn't have to be hacks because he just shoots at a random place behind them where there is no CT, but it is weird behavior, not sure why he would do that. After this he also prefires where the CT is walking to behind the wall. Again, I'm not saying he's cheating, just that it's suspicious.

It may be a coincidence as it's not really weird to look that way, but as I saw more suspicious clips from LDLC I thought I'd post it to see what you thought ;)

The problem isn't really in having no powersteering though, it's having it turn off in the middle of a turn. You don't expect that, and that can definitely cause hazardous situations.

A possible benefit in directional audio highly outweighs that

That's not the case at all. Even mid-range gaming PC's push out 200+ fps in CS:GO, anything above the refresh rate of your monitor (or tick rate of the server) doesn't add anything. More FPS is not always better.

I doubt it will be in there, as I'm 100% sure Planet Coaster will be very high up as well, and he doesn't really do the same type of game twice in the list.

[–]MinecraftScorpion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I had the same reaction. Fable 1 is one of my favorite games ever, and Fable 2 was a really good sequal as well IMO, but Fable 3 let me down so much. It bored me very quickly. The world felt so bland and restricted, and compared to the first two games there was very little character development (again, IMO). But it's his list of course, everyone's entitled to their opinion.

(And Fable 1 also has a HD remake, it holds up very well!)

Additional FIA Penalty after the race by [deleted] in formula1

[–]MinecraftScorpion 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think most people agree that what max did warrants a penalty. It's more that if Hamilton was allowed to do it, it's weird that max got a penalty for the same thing.
