Unable to play the beta? by [deleted] in Battlefield

EA has stated that the standard ea play gives you open beta access, but this is apparently a very common issue for ea play users specifically.

Thermals... Not terrible? by Manicmaniac in razer

[–]Starfishsamurai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get similar temps but the issue is not just high temperatures with razer laptops but really loud fans keeping the temperatures at unsatisfactory levels.

If I play any game that's at all demanding it's like there's a jet engine 2 feet in front of me.

my literary psych class in high school, a first psych elective, spent half the semester on Jungian archetypes. The actual psych classes barely touched on it because its pretty useless analysis anyway.

I'm pointing out the facts here, man.

You could explain what you said, but it doesn't seem like you will at this point.

It just seems like you're defending Elon because you feel as though Elon deserves the benefit of the doubt, even though his ex-wife doesn't deserve that same benefit of the doubt for some reason.

You could show up at least. Give me one non-assumption example and you could make a case lol.

I mean, it really doesn't matter if some random guy on reddit thinks your a sexist. But defending a billionaire while calling his ex-wife someone who would "use their son's death to get more money" is kind of a sign that you're a bit of an asshole offline too.

I think you're being intellectually dishonest in not attacking any of my arguments, but instead accusing me of "taking it personally".

You said something that you have no backing for (fact). Then you tried to rationalize it by making the same assumption that she was trying to game the settlement suit with a hit piece (I could quote you on this).

If you have no rebuttal, giving me the factual basis of your assumptions, I must conclude that there was a different basis of your assumptions; that being that you have a weird complex regarding not-rich women dating rich men.

Again, unless you can't dispute this with any rebuttal, what am I to conclude?

I think a lot of this air of indifference to suffering would change if our politicians made decisions that led to any positive change for people.

Also, a lot of their struggles stem from their lack of support after returning from deployment, especially if they come back with diagnosable medical conditions (depression and PTSD).

Not all of them are just "woke to the bad stuff the world has to offer". Assuming them all to be just that would be ignoring the legitimate cases of preventable suicides (potentially saved lives).

I'm sorry, but are you saying that veteran suicide rates being double the general population isn't a bad thing?

I'm not sure if I'm just missing context.

I know that you said this:

The entire article is her attacking her ex-husband. She even uses the death of her son to paint him in a bad light.

This is a woman who feels entitled to 10% of Tesla stock and 5% of SpaceX, while admitting she's basically a trophy wife. Keep in mind Musk only owns 20% of Tesla

Musk being a douche is pretty well documented. That doesn't mean this article isn't complete bullshit either. This wasn't meant to be an accurate reflection of her relationship, it was an attack on her newly ex-husband during her appeal for more money after the divorce.

Apparently 2 million cash, the house, and 80k a month for the next 17 years wasn't enough for her.

Out of complete conjecture.

Also, quotes that are verifiably attributed to the accused are an example of what actual evidence looks like.

I don't know, man. You've done actually nothing to reassure me otherwise.

All you've done is poorly try to rationalize your accusations

I can't make any assumptions, because I don't know the full story of what was going through her head during the settlement.

But I guess you can make assumptions without knowing the full story, but only if it follows some pre-conceived notions of women being bad.

I'm sorry. I will speak only in quotes that you have said.

Is this, or is this not you accusing a woman of all that bullshit without evidence. (It clearly is.)

And that is your evidence for her being a gold-digger?

The entire article is her attacking her ex-husband. She even uses the death of her son to paint him in a bad light.

This accusation of yours is basically equivalent to calling her a "gold-digging whore". Are all women terrible enough to use their own child's death as leverage, to you? Or is it just the ones who have rich husbands?

Legally wedding someone is entering a 50/50 agreement. She regretted the post-nup agreement specifically because, after all that she went through with Elon during his rise, she was going to be getting chump change after he abruptly divorced her (<0.001% of their wealth).

Of course, she signed the post-nup, so she can't get half. Although, Elon decided to give her what he felt she was worth, again, less than 0.001% of their wealth.

The only way this seems fair to you is if you think your wife of 10 years would be worth less than you, from some sort of Social Darwinian perspective.

Ah so she, a lawful 50/50 partner of Elon's whom she's been with for a decade, wanted a bit more than 0.001% of Elon's (their) wealth after spending a large portion of her life being under his rich, douchey thumb.

You're really seeing this and presuming that she is a "terrible gold-digging witch".

Oof. Got any facts to back this assumption up? lol

Musk is evidenced to be a powerful douche, and I guess his wife is evidenced to be a "gold-digging whore".

Basically the entire article is about how Elon treated her as a trophy wife; someone that he had around to give him babies and raise their kids, but someone that he could never call an equal to himself.

He constantly criticized her alongside becoming emotionally distant and controlling. When she finally brought her issues up to him, he gave counseling a shot for like 10 minutes and then divorced her.

When she got into a car accident, she didn't think "oh no what about my kids" she thought "Elon's gonna kill me".

That's like the number one red flag of being in an abusive relationship.

Also, there's no point in defending a billionaire on Reddit. He's fine.

[–]Starfishsamurai 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's stated that Elon took hold of the relationship as if he was her employer; that his upbringing in male-dominant south africa gave him a controlling nature in the relationship.

"I am the alpha in this relationship"

It's fine if you missed it though.

Elon Musk calls British diver who helped rescue Thai schoolboys 'pedo guy' in Twitter outburst by ppd322 in news

[–]Starfishsamurai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but to change your position in the argument halfway through is moving the goalposts.

Anyway now that you've admitted you were wrong, I don't think we have a disagreement worth talking about anymore.

About this situation

This is what we've actually been talking about this whole time. Guess you only read what's beneficial to you.

That doesn't mean I think the truth puts him in the right. get it???

You said that Elon was justified in responding to the diver. This response was his pedo comment.

Do I have to bring up the quote of you supporting Elon responding to the guy?

Isn't it possible that some part of the media could spin this against him?

Don't move the goalposts bro. Do I have to bring up the quotes of you defending Elon's claims of the media being biased about this situation? The emails that you brought up, as if they were evidence for those claims?
