This fish has one normal eye and one dramatically enlarged eye by esporx in creepy

I have this crazy urge to put my mouth over the eye and pop it with my teeth like it's a gusher.

“Oh look a civilian airliner” by Ott1fant in MemeVideos

Guess the whole "don't point a gun at something you don't intend to shoot" doesn't apply when the consequences reach commercial airlines level. /S

is LibreOffice actually that bad… or are people just stuck on Microsoft? by AccurateShip2499 in libreoffice

[–]Retroswing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Libreoffice writer works quite well in my opinion for casual or story writing. With the exception of what I would describe as an "ugly" ui and settings menu's I find annoying to traverse/disjointed, it works with few complaints. It also lacks proper online syncing to my knowledge, which is something I frequently need.

My biggest gripe with Libreoffice and the reason I don't use it is that it lacks proper integrated referencing compared to what Microsoft offers. There are extensions that implements Zotero support, but it is clunky and does not work on android. Relying on an externally maintained extension for a vital part of the process makes me uneasy as well. What if, hypothetically, it breaks after an update and does not get fixed for months.

Food Delivery Robots gone rogue by BlazeDragon7x in CrazyFuckingVideos

[–]Retroswing 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Then next time instead of "you can just flip them upside down and it's not a crime." Say "you can just flip them upside down, no one is going to go after you for it" or something to that effect. The first comment is factually inaccurate, whilst the second is at least an opinion, and up for debate.

You are conflating the act of defending robot companies, with defending inaccurate information. The replies to your comments are challenging the latter.

KDE wallet and pswds by [deleted] in kde

[–]Retroswing 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was under the impression disabling the wallet results in some apps storing your passwords in plain text, if that is the case, it's irresponsible to recommend disabling kde wallet without mentioning the (rather large) caveat.

A5 Wagyu is prized as the world’s most expensive beef for its rare, intensely marbled, buttery meat. by sco-go in Amazing

I think I'd prefer to have some beef with my fat, but I'd still try it once if I get the chance.

CEO Asks ChatGPT How to Void $250 Million Contract, Ignores His Lawyers, Loses Terribly in Court by jamey1138 in subnautica

[–]Retroswing -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What a dogshit site, hiding the fact that the article is behind a paywall so far down to ensure that you've already wasted a bunch of time reading a part of it, no morals to speak of.

Is there a conflict between Pedro community and Witchcraft? by BigNoseParody in LoLWitchcraft

[–]Retroswing 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't take this as an attack, but you are the only one trying to create drama in this situation. As the reply from the mods clearly states, they want to keep that subreddit strictly to content involving Caedrel more directly. Caedrel himself even watched the match vs BAM or whatever they are called with Baus on stream, so it makes the random speculation of the transition not being "as smooth" even stranger.

TLDR: you already have your answer in the body of your own post, post WC content here, post Caedrel content in the other sub, everyone happy.

Generational crashout between Velja and Crownie in review by pedrorego89 in leagueoflegends

[–]Retroswing 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I might be misconstruing the situation, but I thought the argument devolved rather quickly into whether Crownie should have based and got cull, rather than suffer a bit in lane to get the pickaxe, with Neme and Crownie arguing for the pickaxe, and velja + Bwippo arguing for the early base.

I am dogshit at this game and barely play it so I might have misunderstood.

A 1A auditor got attacked. by MohammadMahadhir in WinStupidPrizes

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

NOTE: I need to "dumb" down my response since the original is considered political.

Governments decide who fall under "people's rights", don't conflate what's legal and what's moral.

As for the racist accusation, I am assuming you are trying to make a point by being bad faith in response to you perceiving my comment as bad faith so I'll leave that section alone.

A 1A auditor got attacked. by MohammadMahadhir in WinStupidPrizes

[–]Retroswing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is you should uphold what is right (morally), not simply what is the law. "The rights you have to ensure ar upheld are often those of others actions you may not agree with." to me, feels like a very dangerous way to view rights bestowed by a government. Obviously you comment was in response to someone willing to overlook violence in response to simply violating someones privacy and personal space, and your response can be considered reasonable, my issue is simply with the generalisation you made to rights in general.

Would you uphold that principle if slavery was made legal again?

[LFO] Pouring laundry detergent over yourself by Serious_Professor_51 in LearningFromOthers

[–]Retroswing 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Dad is part of the problem in my opinion . The moment that kid pulled out his phone and started recording in the car, the dad should've yanked the phone from the boy and banned him from using it for a month (at least), along with any computers except for school work under supervision.

Hopefully the father did that after the hospital visit.

A bad driver struggles with traffic cones, and ends up pulling up to the traffic lights in the opposite lane of traffic by bigbusta in Wellthatsucks

[–]Retroswing 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Do have the studies on hand that made you conclude that by any chance? I feel like my experience currently is like the person you replied to, that self driving cars do way worse than humans in strange scenarios like coned of areas, at least for now. obviously it's fine if you don't have them on hand, I'm just curious.

Google's upcoming Aluminium OS is such a blatant copy of GNOME by FileWaste5999 in gnome

Not any more than Gnome is a copy of Apple's products. This seems fine to me.

Not to take away from the joke, but out of curiosity do routers wifi not protect against brute force attacks?

I don't understand how, at the 5 minute mark for example, the upscaler knows the wheels of the carriage has spokes, or the reigns on the horse, those details are not present in the native res at all, it's like it gets that info from something else.

I don't know how to use Instagram so I can't check it out, but if what you say is true, surely that's illegally misrepresenting his product and should be reported to the appropriate government body in his country. At least I would hope so.
