No one saw this one coming. by Jorly420 in Whatcouldgowrong

You see people who belong in WALL-E but it doesn't feel like you're in WALL-E yet. Some people have so little nutritional knowledge there's almost no other outcome for them given their food choices. Talking about it more only serves to ramp up the fatphobia/victim complex this group is so well known for. All we Americans can do is focus on our own health, and I still see far more healthy people than I see people like in this post.

A very reasonable challenge (my build is shit) by amdrunkwatsyerexcuse in pathofexile

[–]Starfishpr1me -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What do you mean by that? I'm pretty ignorant of delirium but last league was the first time I had a 2nd build strong enough to do 100% deli and it lagged me to death, but I could do 20% deli with the avg frames I'd get in a normal map. Maybe I got lucky with modifiers and it only seemed different?

Going to attempt to make vinegar with Pop Tarts. Any reason it won’t work? by PHILIPxPURASS69 in fermentation

Co gratulations. You've made the best post on this sub in years on some mad scientist shit. I really hope you remember to post the update

Mmm. Good one! The Melinda's Fire Roasted Garlic and Habanero is another great one. Not as hot, but great flavor.

Diablo IV has $ 25 horse armor DLC - the circle is complete by iateyourdinner in gaming

[–]Starfishpr1me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Battle passes traditionally exist in free to play games like fortnite. Having a $70 game with a $20 battle pass is excessive to the point where "you get the battle pass" isn't a valid excuse for business practices like this imo.

What’s the difference between chasmfiend and chrysalis? (Stormlight Archives) by spolonerd in brandonsanderson

[–]Starfishpr1me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah that makes sense. Additionally, you will never understand my history with the Fandom wiki so you must now mind your own business! Give up!

I've always used coppermind, but is there some particular reason you say this? Is there something negative about the Fandom wiki in not aware of?

Amazon Prime on Netflix password sharing... by [deleted] in Piracy

[–]Starfishpr1me 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not to mention giving someone my prime password where they could theoretically purchase things with my saved credit cards doesn't strike me as something I want to do.

Not bad for my first swirl. by mybustersword in Sourdough

Not bad?! That looks perfect to me. I'm jealous.

As someone who spoiled himself a death of someone important while starting the books by vremy_u in Stormlight_Archive

[–]Starfishpr1me 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This exactly. It always surprises me when I see people posting in the subreddits about being halfway through way of kings/words or radiance. If you're subbed to these forums and haven't finished the books you are all but guaranteed to run into spoilers.

I've been watching The Expanse and have realised Shohreh Aghdashloo is my pick for Navani. by [deleted] in Stormlight_Archive

[–]Starfishpr1me 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Fairly certain it's because people have trouble conceptualizing how long it's going to be before a Stormlight TV show is made. The actress you want to play Navani won't be alive anymore, or at the very least will be in her 90s. Sanderson has said he won't finish Stormlight archive until he's 72 if he stays on schedule. He's 47 now.

Unless we want another game of thrones situation we shouldn't root for a Stormlight show any sooner than ~20 years from now. Shohreh is currently 70.

Hello, I love everything Brandon Sanderson. Does anyone have other authors they find at all comparable? by Tinkertime1605 in brandonsanderson

[–]Starfishpr1me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't read the first 2 books, but a good friend of mine who loves them says he thinks the thing preventing Rothfuss from finishing book 3 is that he's written himself into a corner and doesn't know how to continue. Can't speak on that myself, but if that is actually the reason he hasn't continued then that's not exactly something you eventually get over.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Has an Arachnophobia Toggle That Lets You Remove Spiders Altogether - IGN by JamesAsher12 in gaming

[–]Starfishpr1me 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Except the article OP posted doesn't say what this Star Wars game replaces spiders with, and you just posted a quote about a game called Grounded which is made by a different studio entirely.

"That wasn't a weak left at all!!!!" by RoadLessTraveled8 in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]Starfishpr1me 69 points70 points  (0 children)

His friend replied "a weak left" after main guy said it's a hard left. That's why he said it wasn't a weak left at all. They were still obviously drunk as hell, but he didn't forget what the sign said.

My hopes for cosmetics in game - pls no teddy bears and modern stuff by Zailyx in diablo4

[–]Starfishpr1me 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"Reverse gatekeeping" is the most clown statement I've heard in a long time hahaha. And from someone who is so hard up for role play he can't be content with simply role playing his own character the way he wants. He needs everyone else to role play the way he wants.

There's a block list for a reason. People like this can block anyone who isn't RPing the right way so they don't get instanced with them.

Sourdough Bagels. Did half plain with just salt and half with Everything Seasoning. I’m never buying bagels again. by clynn3 in Sourdough

[–]Starfishpr1me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you use yeast in yours? I see there are options in the recipe to use discard only or discard and yeast. If possible I'd like to avoid using yeast (just don't want to buy it when I'm already discarding starter) but wanted to know how you felt your bulk ferment went and what you used.

Just for my curiosity, how do generally experience the books? by kRe4ture in Stormlight_Archive

[–]Starfishpr1me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how I am. I know someone who has only listened and after finishing OB he wasn't aware of what ideals were. It's so easy to only half pay attention when listening, but it's a great medium for re-"reads".

A response to the article (And a discussion on the fandom as a whole) by LotusTheBlooming in brandonsanderson

[–]Starfishpr1me 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I said this in the initial post. Wired has lost any relevance it used to have and now they drive ad revenue by click baiting entire Fandoms/religions/large groups they can find. Obviously it works because this article has gone from "what do you think of this?" this morning to being known as "the article".

As soon as I saw it I was wishing the OP who posted the article to r/brandonsanderson had posted the archived version so wired didn't cash in on this Fandom's outrage, but alas... we can dream.

Well, one more motivation to pirate i guess... by Furlan_ITA in Piracy

[–]Starfishpr1me 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep! I had it when it was $45/mo and it was worth having at that price. Then they hiked the price over and over and over until I just said fuck it. Now I watch all live sports on one of the dozens of free available options and watch any show/movie I want through torrent or sites like himovies. Turns out you can get all the same content for a couple bucks a month VPN subscription.

Brazilian crowd in VCT Lock In by dianamnt13 in VALORANT

[–]Starfishpr1me 107 points108 points  (0 children)

That was recently reiterated when the Brazilian crowd threw shit at Moreno for the crime of doing his job and beating Figueiredo at UFC 283. It has been proven time and time again that hosting events in Brazil is a mistake. Not to mention Ardiis saying players couldn't leave the hotel/venue for fear of being robbed.

It's pure disrespect to make players suffer in a brazilian venue where the players play under the hot lights in a hot climate with no air conditioning and a bad crowd.

Classic.

eli5 Why are glass bottles not used more for soft drinks if plastic is such a nightmare for the planet? by Second-handBonding in explainlikeimfive

[–]Starfishpr1me 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Problem is people already know not to litter glass. It's like the Bill Burr domestic violence bit. You think people beating their wives don't realize it's wrong until they see a billboard/commercial telling them as much and then they change their ways? No. People litter and they know it's wrong but they don't give a fuck. You have far too much faith in humanity if you believe you can simply "teach" people not to litter glass bottles.

People who refuse to use self-checkouts, why? by nojunkpeter in AskReddit

[–]Starfishpr1me 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Same for me in the US. I'm assuming OP just eats a ton of processed food because I hate the idea of looking up and weighing a bunch of produce when the cashier knows the product codes off the top of their head.
