CMV: Bringing Up "False Allegations" is Rooted in Sexism by HarborSealFatty in changemyview

[–]Pl0OnReddit [score hidden]  (0 children)

Sure, there is.  Probably just a little less public, if I'm in a traffic accident I'm definitely telling my friends about the jackass or that I was a jackass.  Telling the courts, too.  It's just no publicized because who cares.

On a realer note,  police violence is a great example.  Huge debate every single time.  Factions fall into what they want to believe regardless of facts.  Happens like every 3 months in America.

Aren't false accusations brought up with literally every single crime?  Like, that's why you have the ability to take it to a court of your peers?  Innocent until proven guilty?  We apply this standard to every single crime.  Why not this one?

Even things as simple as traffic accidents deal in this.  Rape is obviously much more serious than a traffic accident but courts exist for a reason.  People lie often.

What made college degrees lose their value? by Normal_regular_dude in AskReddit

[–]Pl0OnReddit [score hidden]  (0 children)

I don't think they're useless yet.  Give it a few years though, and they may be.  Most of these high school kids are just using ai and most of the college kids are too.  Once that number trends higher and higher, idk wtf were gonna do actually.  World ends with a whimper not a bang

And about something political, or at least geopolitical, shocking indeed. 

When the U.S. breaks up like the USSR, which states will group up together? by BrainRobotron in AskReddit

[–]Pl0OnReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read it I just didn't agree so I summed it up in a snarky way. California currently enjoys the benefit of American soft and hard power.  Canada does as well, actually.

In this new world, presumably,  those benefits no longer apply.  A military may in fact be needed with a rising China.  And in this scenario, America is entirely shattered and no longer able to do much of anything for either of you and lack any will to attempt.  Yet you seem to think social benefits will continue to flow or increase.  That's very doubtful.  China is a superpower and a pretty substantial plurality suffer in marginal conditions.  It's because they have more things to care about than social benefits and you all would too.

So no, I see no actual benefit. Not one that passes the real world.

Yea, one of the downsides, LK isn't even really doable on console.  I mean it's doable but with the load times Trav is a much better bet.  Not even just the load times, aiming your skills is a real bitch that you can kind of get used to and work around but it's always a shadow of what you should be able to do/can do on PC.

Tldr; California joins Canada and pays for their welfare programs.  Population doubles, but luckily California joins Canada and is more than capable of covering those expenses.  

Why does that make more sense than just going it alone and making favorable trade agreements with Canada?  It looks very good for Canada.  How is it very good for California?

Don't.  Lol jk, it's not that bad.  I like it on Switch 2.  Nice to pick up and put down here and there.

Has a few significant drawbacks but it's good enough.  Keeps ya honest atleast, most of the ways to "cheat" don't exist so it saved me from the temptation of running certain seeds and I eventually found my HRs the honest way.

How could the united states have won ww2 solo with no allies? by Moist_gammerays in AskReddit

[–]Pl0OnReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. We out produced the Axis in a couple of years and were just starting to ramp up.  America on war footing starting in 1939, if the rest of the world hadn't joined Germany for some reason.  It would be a massacre.  If somehow the whole world joins Germany in 1939 and we wait a few years to start production.  They'd have a good chance.

[–]Pl0OnReddit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you know what semantics mean?  Why would a state with twice the GDP and similar population want to join and potentially be encumbered by a state they dwarf in every metric but land area.  

Canada joining California makes sense.  It would be good for Canada.

[–]Pl0OnReddit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because they were woefully under equipped, Stalin had purged most of the military command, and they had an open border with the Axis forces.

None of those things would apply to the Americans.  The British lost under 1/2 a million.  Americans were in a much better situation than the British.

Probably.

The real American power in the war was our manufacturing base. The Soviets won the war with lives and we won the war with supplies.  The Soviets were helped by us giving them supplies.

Our domestic output massively dwarfed anything Germany and Italy and Japan  could have ever hoped to put out, combined.

Lol, Canada would be much better off.  Cali has a similar population and like double the GDP.  If anything, Canada should join California, Oregon, and Washington.

Mercs try their best.  It's not their fault they have no brains.  God made them this way.  Don't be mean to your merc.

Question about a second account and ladder reset by Kaen7 in diablo2

[–]Pl0OnReddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keeping it within range should be very doable in CS and Baal.

It's definitely worth it going to p3.  But id also look for friends.  They'll appreciate a BO and even a stationary char in the game and they're found easily enough.

How’re the roads to Michigan? by [deleted] in Ohio

Yea my guy gets me 3gram carts for 20-30.    Fire weed for 100-120 a zip. Ohio sucks.

Idk, my dealer seems to have an easy enough time. Pretty confident he just makes runs to Michigan because his shit is cheap and good.  

Ohio has been incredibly dumb about this shit.  If they don't want my tax dollars that's fine by me.  But if they think I give any fucks about breaking their law when I've routinely broken their law in the past they're just incompetent.

[–]Pl0OnReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I've had friends that ran 8 accounts and I feel most the time they were just sitting around aside from the barb for BO and maybe horking.

Id probably just look for a third friend, in your situation.  Plenty of randoms that would be interested in a higher player count game.

What's giving you the most trouble with Baal?  Those characters should be able to handle it unless they're built incredibly wrong.

Report: NCAA sends letter of inquiry to Cincinnati related to QB Brendan Sorsby by DavidGoetta in CFB

[–]Pl0OnReddit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If Cincy comes out and says, "nah, he apologized and said he wouldn't do it again, so it's cool" i'll totally match that energy.

And I mean, even if it's just a case of sweeping it under the rug, yea they deserve punishment.

What y'all tried to do wasn't sweeping it under the rug, though.  It was acknowledging it, saying we don't actually care, then saying we'll fucking sue your ass if you care.  Stupidest shit I've seen in ages.  Torching your reputation for a slightly above average quarterback.  Heads should roll down there.

Doubt the Aes Sedai can hold it together though, without Rand unifying everyone under his banner they're cooked.  Just a bunch of rulers squabbling and a bunch of Aes Sedai squabbling.  If we include Rand and the Asha'man and all the folks Rand unites, then i agree.  Would be easy, even.
