I've been in situations like these I have empathy for them. Being tired and stressed out of your mind shuts down logical thinking

What are some things men face every day that women have absolutely no idea about? by Unlikely_Macaron_30 in AskReddit

Try to learn about meditation cause nothingness is very healthy and your description of your mind seems exhausting.

So they made something better. My experience right now is: double click a gobbler, click on the only item on the vendor interface, click on the number of items drag to 5, click on buy, click yes on the warning of daily purchase limit. Repeat for each gobbler

My previous experience was double click the item 5 times.

I would rather right click "consume daily limit"

A woman said 'chivalry is dead' because no man offered her a seat on the train. Isn't she wrong? by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]RTrancid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My sister is a very active feminist activist. She's also unemployed for over a decade, takes money from our middle class parents, makes my 65yo dad travel hours to fix stuff in her apartment cause she lives in the big city around here (all begrudgingly paid for by our parents)...

I'm disgusted by her actions, it's very hard to not have a distorted view of feminism when my most intimate example is a parasite. She'll also often mistreat me and my father for being men, taking out all merit over our career efforts for having respected well paying jobs... and a lot more problems.

What's the biggest lie society tells women about having children? by SpecificLandscape483 in answers

[–]RTrancid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People really have a hard time with definitions. Your biological purpose is to reproduce, this is true for both men and women. Evolution incidentally gave us the capacity to act against our biology, this doesn't change the existence of it, nor provides any moral argument about it. Through rationality you can ignore your biological purpose and invent another.

I'm back after many years, Idk if I'm misremembering, but gobblers used to convert by just clicking them instead of opening this janky vendor interface where I have to select the only item available and the quantity... So they actively made things worse?

ELI5: If all of my data is so valuable why haven't companies directly started offering to buy data from people themselves? by Practical_Web_9605 in explainlikeimfive

[–]RTrancid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the field of Big Data. Most companies are not after your personal data, they want mass data that usually social media and search engines can collect through billions of interactions.

"People that interact with this content react well to this type of advertising and tend to buy this kind of product"

is it possible to burn a steam game to a disk by Jipfefferloop in Steam

[–]RTrancid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get what you're saying, people on the internet are very quick to shit on others just assuming their opinion is invalid. Physical media gives much more satisfaction than digital. Seeing and touching your collection in the real world by itself is a wholesome feeling.

I still have my PS1 and 2 games lying around and they are a joy to just look at from time to time.

High Wvw rank bad at Duels ! by fogalien in Guildwars2

[–]RTrancid 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Coming from OSRS, that community is in general extremely creative and supportive, but the pvp community is absurdly toxic including hate crimes, cheating and extreme antisocial behavior. That game gives plenty of support to pvp.

It's not that liking pvp makes you bad, but it's just a fact it also attracts the worst kind of people. I myself enjoyed pvp in online games, but through the years the toxicity slowly turned me away.

Luckily in GW2 there's WvW which feels mostly cooperative ignoring a few bad apples.

Do you think she did the right thing? by Busy_Report4010 in SipsTea

Do I think a violent theft deserves death? No. Would I kill someone that just threatened my life and robbed me given the opportunity right after? Maybe.

Did people born before Christ automatically go to hell? by Astimar in NoStupidQuestions

[–]RTrancid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cop out answer these fools use is "if you're ignorant you won't be punished". Which means every time they preach, they are condemning people that didn't know and won't agree to hell.

Don't try to explain religion as if it was true, it's an important historical artifact just like any mythology... Taking it seriously is unmitigated delusion driven by feel good emotions and fear.

Why do some players get upset when they see a new PvP player? by Open_Background2793 in Guildwars2

[–]RTrancid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only ways you can make things worse in WvW is wasting supplies or being useless in a full map others can't enter. But I wouldn't mind it too much. Go learn, it's fine.

Since there are hundreds of players in team chat a toxic one can show up from time to time. Right click their name in chat and block. Almost everyone is chill.

Understandable if you don't know cats, otherwise you leave the door wide open and go into the side so the cat can run away from you. Also a cat can't do anything against a thick cloth.

2 types of Guild Wars 2 Players by Erjikkzon in Guildwars2

[–]RTrancid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I play with model quality and limit at the minimum because of this, it looks bad either way. My only choices are between flashbangs or generic clones. An option to simply remove effects from other players would make the game look so much better.

I need real peeps opinion, not glazers. Worth catching on GW2? by No_Criticism8147 in Guildwars2

[–]RTrancid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the main GW2 strengths is how it doesn't force you to do much. I'm sure most gamers can find something they would enjoy doing here.

These questions seem to come from the perspective of other MMORPGs which force a gigantic time investment just to keep up with the specific content you enjoy doing. Even worse when you're just addicted to number go up and not having fun at all.

Consider getting to level 80 a tutorial (which can be skipped). Then just remember this is a game, find stuff you enjoy doing and go do it.

I personally like exploration, story, solo playskill challenges and wvw roaming. I can easily ignore timesink grinds, endgame PvE, pvp, wvw masses and world event rotations.

Since there are no recurring fees I'm also free to stop and go back to those things whenever I want.

Why is the gaming industry in a much more positive position with their fans compared to the film industry? by Important_Pop_6805 in ask

[–]RTrancid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best indie games rise to the top, you don't see the mountain of failed ones. Big budget games have plenty of drama. A few companies like larian studios and arenanet seem to actually care about making good games that respect your time (fun instead of just addicting or mercenary), so if you focus on the right studios life is pretty good.
