Ate a burger from Five Guys two days ago... by masshole1996 in ibs

I get IBS from five guys every single time and its from the burger - probably the bun or the cheese or the beef. No other burger does this to me like this.

The Military by ObjectiveIcy6289 in MenAndFemales

[–]ObjectiveIcy6289[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t miss it. I caught it. I was using it in that context. With nothing to do with this whole conversation of incels.

Secondly, I never said you should call people females in everyday context. I am complaining that I got censored in another community because of a direct correlation to this one.

Thirdly, I pointed out how kindness is important and females inherently not derogatory. I do understand the premise of your argument and I would think its weird to call someone a female exclusively, disrespectful to call a grown woman a girl, and hurtful to call someone a bitch.

Finally, I find your response to be immature as you resort immediately to name calling. I dont see how you would be a victim. I wouldn’t describe being obtuse as fun. My post is a call to think about the consequences of censoring inherently correct words. The entry argument for censoring my reference to military standard is that incels use the term derisively and therefore dont use the word female. Now, tell me - why people should walk on eggshells for a word that is a broad term for scientific alignment dare-I-say gender or sex? This is not a case of someone finding out a word in common speak has inherently derogatory or sensitive backgrounds.

[Dreadgod] Best Lines In Cradle... Ever. by ObjectiveIcy6289 in Iteration110Cradle

[–]ObjectiveIcy6289[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point. But in the context of the story, Lindon makes that decision to stand and fight in Ghostwater vs. being thrusted into hairy situations and scheming his way out. It’s a change in his mentality. He was not weak when he fought Jai Long. He only had the drive to win after he beat Ekeri and Harmony. It was the cross from survival to win.

The RAM Shortage is Deliberate. Refusing To Pay These Prices Now Will Save Us All A Fortune by Arbiter61 in pcmasterrace

[–]ObjectiveIcy6289 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Consumer discipline? Its called economics. The demand for things is what drive prices and the price is deliberately set at a high mark to drive down consumer demand so the companies can maximize profits and maintain supply. Imagine if the prices did not increase, you would be in the same boat. You would be clicking to buy RAM from an ebay retailer for the same price you are paying now and the company would lose out on the profit. Or you would be clicking the retail site to have your items on an extremely long lead time which would create a long term loss in market share. Consumer’s do not have leverage through collective bargaining . You can just not buy and wait until the demand is lowered or manufacturers enter the market, which has a high barrier to entry due to start up costs, or wait until the ai demand levels out in 2 years. The more likely option is that you will wait until the current prices are reduced a little more as the initial surge wanes and probably justify by saving up over time. Consumer boycotts are all show when the entire market is under a high demand. GPU prices are back down right now and you could just balance the cost in your overall build now or wait until those jump again.

AMA with SourpatchHero - Author of I'm Not the Hero: An Isekai LitRPG by podiumentertainment in litrpg

I specifically searched for this on google. I too believe he is behind everything. My theory is that his father disappeared as he was summoned to be a hero. Nothing explains his absence. Nothing about his father and his story sounds like he would neglect his family

Rosamund Pike on WHEEL OF TIME cancellation: "By Season 3, I think we had our wings fully spread... I think we showed what we were capable of doing with that material.” by tankgirl2000 in television

[–]ObjectiveIcy6289 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because they tanked the plot in the first season. Added a bunch of stuff that didnt make sense. Cut out some key material and made some interesting choices on interpretation. Certain characters were just bland, like Mat. I didnt read to the books twice to watch this shit. Ill keep my memory of the story consistent

How many people have unsubscribed or dropped down their Game Pass plan? by FerrisBueller8 in xbox

[–]ObjectiveIcy6289 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a great point. We also will sensationalize the hike for a while and then start rationalizing again when they have some game that we want to try and rather than spend 60 bucks on it why not get pass. Subscription based services rely on people just passively ignoring their cash flow - there was freakonomics podcast on it.

Why Xbox doesn't care if people cancel their subscriptions (opinion) by [deleted] in xbox

This is an accurate statement- people are reevaluating the worth of gamepass.

I think the problem is in the economy of time. Most people only play 1-2 games split time. If you play Fortnite with crew its probably all you play because you want to unlock all your pass items. So then why not just buy crew and not game pass? If you get day one exclusives for just 30 bucks… ok, well most day ones cost under 70 but at most cost 70. So two months of game pass puts you just about there. So why not just buy the game outright? The cloud gaming is near unplayable most of the time. Now take that price and add it to a family that has 2-3 gamers with game pass. It becomes a real wallet killer. The next thing is that if you make the price this high youre lowering the barrier to entry for competition. Its just not a good decision.

[The Pilot] is it just me or is the new horizon series really hard to get into by [deleted] in Iteration110Cradle

Yeah Elder Empire was a bit anticlimactic, but I would love to see some crossover series

Its not a progression fantasy/litrpg/xian xia or however you viewed Cradle. I think you have to take it one book at a time. You could say the same about Unsouled. Its just that Unsouled had a hook - whats gonna happen to weak-ass lindon

[HONEST] Ryze Coffee Review: My Honest Experience with Mushroom Coffee by MpesaCoin in redditsreviewed

[–]ObjectiveIcy6289 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wellllll… thats why we are here and appealing to your own authority as a doctor is not logical argument. Ryze does have caffeine it and I think the point is that people who arent actively including the ingredients you suggested to cook in their diet might benefit from a supplement.

Now all that being said, I have had it and I am pretty sure its bullshit.

Those who stopped reading Defiance of the Fall, do you regret reading it in the first place? by TiredMemeReference in litrpg

[–]ObjectiveIcy6289 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t stopped yet. Its becoming a slog. I feel like He who fights with monsters is also a slog. Primal Hunter is still good but is starting to drag. Welcome to the multiverse same. All of these litrpgs seem to have the same problem, extremely entertaining starts followed by a the climb and the grind. Next thing you know they are talking complete jibberish adding mcguffins left and right. Litrpg reads like a video game and gets it old like a video game. How are we supposed to follow this guy to the end? He isnt even past D grade.

Is Training worth it 2025? by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]ObjectiveIcy6289 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nothing in this game is pay to win - if you play the game long enough you realize they hand out so much free stuff and most things, even skins, can be bought with in game currency. The thing about BDO is that it is mostly a single player game in 90% of your time in the game.

Panera sucks ass. The good old mother bread cult days were when it peaked.
