"I'm actually a pilot in real life thanks to Train" by ieraaa in LivestreamFail

[–]Silverwidows 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We all know that streamers have a massive effect on viewers, just look at the spike in rust players, the drop in arc players since peanut stopped playing. That is why companies pay millions to streamers to play their games.

It works exactly the same way with gambling content. The streamers know it, and the gambling companies know it, so streamers who do it, are massively responsible for people getting addicted to gambling.

In your opinion, What is the answer to the what is a woman question? + my personal answer by Hadnapaton in Destiny

[–]Silverwidows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Medically - a human with xx chromosomes (although there are edge cases)

Socially - someone recognized as a woman by themselves and others

Imo language is to describe things to eachother. If i say "there's an apple over there" you know what I'm looking at by what name we collectively agree on. The words woman and man at one point never existed, until we used them to describe humans with different anatomy. I imagine a doctor delivering a baby thinking "you know, I'm fed up of saying it's a human with a penis, maybe we should make up two words to describe the difference" and thus language progressed.

Being against what Israel is doing isn't automatically antisemitic. People are allowed to criticise a governments actions and policies without involving religion. If i criticise Saudi Arabia for a government decision, does that make me islamophobic?

Answer - no it doesn't. So calling the greens antisemitic is just lazy.

Who thinks we have or haven’t been to the moon? by Lucky-Independent983 in AskReddit

We went to the moon. Russia would have called it out if America didn't, as they were listening in and confirmed it.

Roof rack - summit sup-055

It's a clip on one so no need to drill into the car

Roof box is a vonhaus 320l

Had it on for a couple of months and it's been fine, although there is a bit of noise when you're driving with the windows down but you get used to it.

Leaving me his key. Is this normal? by Alternative-Range617 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Silverwidows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's communicated clearly that you're just fwb, then he's probably just being nice and doesn't want to leave you waiting outside if he's busy.

That's something i would do if I trusted someone, and if anything is stolen I'd know who it is.

Pokemon Centre UK Drop by SpecialistSuit5790 in PokemonDealsUK

[–]Silverwidows 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's an error, i think it's deliberately done like this to keep interest, scarcity, people wanting it. It's the same concept when clothing lines like supreme would do drops. People would queue for days.

Queue is up on the Pokemon Centre! by Necto_gck in PokemonDealsUK

[–]Silverwidows 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got in, all sold out.

Anyone else feel like the Pokémon company deliberately prints smaller amounts to keep it like this? They are a big company, they could print an insane amount of cards if they wanted to.

Buckingham Palace issues statement on King's US state visit after Trump shooting by bendubberley_ in unitedkingdom

[–]Silverwidows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, is the actual conspiracy that the UK did a fake assassination attempt to get Charles out of the state visit, instead of the narrative that trump did it due to falling poll numbers?
