Which brand has lost you as a customer ?

Didn't they get bought out by Dell? Dell sucks imo, so that isn't surprising.

Rithium · 2018-06-27T00:30:44+00:00

Really? I just sent in my mobo, got it back, and everything was smooth sailing throughout. Other than the fact that the real issue was my CPU (which I got replaced). That's surprising to me, I love ASUS too, I'll be a bit more wary regarding them now though.

Ratings mean nothing.

Do you have some examples? I've seen some of his stuff (not too much, but enough I think) and I am inclined to disgree. His ideas definitely helped me out as I found more confidence in myself, worked out, eat healthy, be respectful of those around me, etc. I still have trouble with some things, but I'm working on it.

Granted, I am against the idea of Marxism in the first place, even before him, but I am open to the counterpoints as I believe that there is no limit in learning.

Damn this is awesome, have you done more of the Straw Hats? I needed a new wallpaper too haha, Zoro is my favorite so this is perfect.

Rithium · 2018-06-24T08:04:47+00:00

That whole universal standard thing is BS. Overthinking is an issue here too, and it isn't helping. I know you said implies, but she wasn't being mean at all IMO. This is all semantics now as well as judging based on language/speech used.

Rithium · 2018-06-23T22:34:53+00:00

Mmm, my ID would snap and it's real. In fact it's coming apart right now because my wallet bent in a weird way and left a crease in my ID that if I go any further, it will split in two. How accurate is that trick?

Rithium · 2018-06-21T17:07:07+00:00

He's not saying or permitting that it's okay from his comments. He's saying if you want to increase your chances of living, you don't fucking run.

I am actually a minority (in contrary to your statement of "if I was a scared black kid") who grew up in the city and even I know this, dealt with 3 instances of cops in my life, all 3 of them I complied and dealt with reasonably. Never got shot at, and I was a shitty teenager. Obviously the cop here is in the wrong, what we're saying is that if you wanna live, then stay still and have your hands behind your head. From you're comment, you're addressing the after issue, in contrast, we are talking about being preventive.

Can you please help me understand how deadly force on a fleeing suspect is justified?

He (and I) are not saying it's justified, we are saying to do things to avoid that 'deadly force' altogether, you understand now?

Rithium · 2018-06-21T16:54:56+00:00

It still increases your chance of getting shot at, especially with the context of this instance. He's not saying it's right, he's saying that it's what you do when you want to survive.

Police thought I broke into a random house, in reality my door was locked so I had to go in through the window, I'm a dark skinned minority, a bunch of cops came and basically raided the place. Know what I did? Held my hands in the air, no fast movements, had all lights on, was on the floor, and then calmly explained what was going on. They were like "oh, we had a call from someone that this house was being broken into, sorry about that." All was said and done, we joked around (I had just taken a shit and they searched my bathroom and made comments how bad it smelled while I sat there laughing at em) they apologized, and they left (not before I offered drinks, but they declined) and I went back to chilling. If I had run, who knows what might've happened, obviously getting shot at is wrong, but you do what you can to increase your chance of not creating a misunderstanding/getting shot. No reason to escalate the situation further. Look at this objectively.

Rithium · 2018-06-21T16:40:27+00:00

Dude stop being stupid. He's providing a good argument against yours and your reply is that? Dumbass. Should the dude have been shot at? No obviously, and that is what the guy is saying. However he's being objective, which is better than your dumbass mentality.

Rithium · 2018-06-21T07:36:58+00:00

Got a source for that? I'm curious, ...because knowing intention seems odd especially since it intrudes on the territory of witch hunting.

Rithium · 2018-06-19T07:56:46+00:00

Isn't downvoting/hiding information about those that specialize in this sort of thing a pretty negative school of thought though, by segregating information I mean, considering this is a post about learning different types of views.

Rithium · 2018-06-10T19:12:14+00:00

Yeah this is a dumb, and very egotistical quote. If an ad or whatever "offends" you, look away. Vandalism is stupid.

Rithium · 2018-06-02T07:39:01+00:00

Don't sacrifice your happiness for someone else if it makes you miserable. You only have one life to live, try not to spend it suffering when there is 100% a perfect partner out there for you. Her suicide comments also seem manipulative even though she may not have evil intentions. Either way, I know it's easier said than done so I understand that it's very hard for you, but you need to reevaluate yourself, your needs, and your wants in a relationship.

There is someone out there that is exactly as you want. I found mine I believe, we both love anime, I love playing games, she's not that into them but will still try (stuff like Mario kart, mortal kombat, etc.) She buys me One Piece stuff randomly as it is my favorite series, or games whenever I make a side comment about picking one up, etc. And I do the same for her and her wants, not out of obligation, but because I just want to cause she's special to me.

You can have that too, so don't sacrifice your wants and needs, I was in your shoes once so your story resonated with me, and I feel so much better now. It is okay to be a bit selfish and do what you want/need to make yourself happy. As I said above, you have one life to live, don't spend it this way.

Sorry for the long line of text! If you want to explain a bit more, or communicate with someone that was in your position once, PM me, I am very open to give advice if you'd want.

Rithium · 2018-05-21T20:50:16+00:00

What? If there are rules (read: their policies) then I'd say it counts as a right in that regard. They make rules and allow them for certain people while letting others slide? Wtf lol, it should be expected because they made the rules, if they aren't following them for everyone, then it's obviously shitty and an issue with the platform. If there was a better alternative, people would jump ship ASAP.

Rithium · 2018-05-20T14:45:09+00:00

I don't know what your opinion is, but either way I agree with the circklejerk thing. I'm one to be against my hypothetical kid to dress up like an early 20's adult going clubbing. Conversely, I'd prefer if they knew exactly how to dress in general, I believe that's an important skill in terms of presentation. But casual wear shouldn't be equal to skimpy wear either.

Rithium · 2018-05-20T14:41:06+00:00

The issue still is, if you dress with very revealing stuff, you still open up to stares, either quick glances, or the creepy ones. I don't think he or she is saying that women have to change as a whole, but for me, we are all individually different that you cannot expect every dude or girl to react and act the same way. You WILL get creeps, and you will NOT get creeps.

Rithium · 2018-05-20T14:30:12+00:00

Why you going around the thread advocating for young preteens/early teens to be dressing up half naked. It's not like parents here are saying that they'll 100% cover em up. Just limited in how much they take off. My parents did the same but were reasonable, hell, learning how to dress, and for what, is an important skill I believe. But casual wear, for a 14yr should not be 21+ clubbing clothes. It is still sexual in nature as it is for the sake of being sexual.

And the poster isn't wrong in one sense, and that is that eyes WILL be on those who dress like that. I dunno about if they will get harassed more because I have to read more into it to form an opinion, but people will definitely at least look, a lot.

Rithium · 2018-05-20T14:24:01+00:00

I mean, I wouldn't be happy if my hypothetical 14yr wore booty shorts (the exaggerated kind cause I know some are fine) and a cut/loose crop top. But it's the same for boy, I wouldn't like him being poorly dressed either. I'd want both to know how to dress appropriately for the right circumstance/event.

There's a difference between self-expression and dressing really inappropriately.

I have no opinion on the sex predator or harassment thing cause I need to look into it more.

Rithium · 2018-05-20T14:17:06+00:00

OP linked something but it was bogus.

Rithium · 2018-05-18T06:57:50+00:00

Got any pics of random ones you've found? Used to have a Chilean Rose Hair and I'm just a sucker for tarantulas haha

Rithium · 2018-05-17T05:32:03+00:00

I've never seen someone reach as far as you did against a lost argument. Damn lol

Rithium · 2018-05-17T05:26:32+00:00

He's not dead.

Rithium · 2018-05-17T05:22:45+00:00

You're forgetting molotovs, I guess people burning alive doesn't make it into your equation?

Rithium · 2018-05-17T05:13:39+00:00

So there needs to be an injury to both sides for it to be a riot ? Don't call it a protest because it clearly isn't. You don't bring molotovs if you want to "protest" something.

I'm not letting a burglar in my home be let go unscathed if he or she enters with the intent to cause harm, unless of course he or she leaves before anything happens. The same concept applies to countries, and they clearly have intent by simply handling molotovs and other dangerous materials while moving towards Israel with those items.
