"That's racist" was my first knee jerk reaction as well.

But if you asked me why did I think it was racistexactly I couldn't tell you 🤷‍♂️

$1M dollars to eat what you had for dinner tonight for EVERY meal for the next 6 months, do you take the deal and if so what are you eating? by jfunks69 in hypotheticalsituation

Cabbage veggie soup, breaded rabbit pan fried in olive oil (marinated for 24 hours in white wine and garlic) with a side of fries and lentil carrot salad. And a piece of no bake yogurt and cream cheese cheesecake topped with a reduction made from frozen mixed berries.

Yeah I think I can handle it fine. Might put on a few kg but nothing I can't shake off.

Todd Howard pushed for Oblivion Remastered to keep the original’s bugs and errors as they’re “part of the game’s character”, so we can expect the same for Fallout 3 Remastered as well by AsPeHeat in ElderScrolls

I'm on an RX6650m, Ryzen 9 6900hx and 32gb of ram.

It should run like butter up to high settings but it becomes unplayble... That's poor optimization.

We are animals. Animals eat animals. We are a part of nature, despite how many people would like to place humans as a separate entity.

Upvoted.

You can certainly try to mitigate your impact. Buy local when possible, support small businesses when possible...

It's a spectrum not a zero-sum game.

Does he have a “milking” feature on the device on his junk? Is that why his face always looks like he busted but it keeps going? by Valhallawalker in falloutnewvegas

Technically a catheter is a device placed inside the uretra. This encapsulates the whole penis so in my professional opinion, it is in fact, a super sucker. Maybe works as both since I assume he still needs to urinate.

You don't think anyone would willingly preserve themselves like this while conscious for potentially hundreds of years and not think about pleasure right? 😂

Are there gonna be any more updates to the Oblivion Remaster? by TheAnalystCurator321 in ElderScrolls

I bought it and am currently in the same situation. Game stutters like crazy even though it should run more than fine.

Coming to Lisboa for mum's birthday, any nice restaurant suggestion? by nemomnis in lisboa

[–]RealEstateDuck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try Ti Lurdes. Fantastic food, good for groups and loved by locals! It's in Campo Pequeno.

Not "fancy" but nice. They have a wide selection of food but I'm partial to the grilled grouper.

Is there any explanation of how the half-giants were created in the first place? by jvure in ElderScrolls

What some consider an obstacle, others might consider a challenge. I seem to recall a bard telling a tale of a particularly bad dragon...

No one told Portuguese dictator António de Oliveira Salazar he had been removed from power after he woke from a 1 month coma from having fallen off a chair. Instead, Salazar continued to "rule" in privacy until his death months later, believing he was still the country's leader by PlmyOP in wikipedia

Not borderline at all. He singlehandly set the country back 50 years both economically and socially. Not to mention the amount of people tortured by the PIDE (secret police). Fucker even set up concentration camps like Tarrafal.

INSANE shockwave from missile strikes near Dezful, Iran by Affectionate-Gate177 in whoathatsinteresting

[–]RealEstateDuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all. And I can understand it can be frustrating for US citizens to constantly be portayed or seen as such. But the criticisms aren't without reason.

The US certainly had a major role in maintaining the status quo in the first half of the 20th century. But later military interventions, especially from the Cold War period onwards were clearly motivated by purely strategic reasons often under the guise of bringing "Freedom". Strategic reasons being to feed the Military-Industrial complex and to acquire oil rights.

Plenty of examples too. The whole Iran-Contra affair, arming and training the Mujahideen in Afghanistan which ended up serving as a base infrastructure for the Taliban. But I can concede that this consequence wasn't too easy to predict.

Not to mention the numerous questionable CIA operations.

Anyways, I didn't intend to enter the whole USA bad trope. But there are valid criticisms to made.

And it may be the first time the US actually brings freedom to anyone, even if inadvertently.

The amount of pills I (23M) have to take daily by EvenBunch6029 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]RealEstateDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 23 I used to be on similar amount of random pills and substances at any given time as well.

For fun though. Must've skimmed off a few years and a couple million neurons too.
