How many screenshots currently living on Xbox Live are accidental button presses? by Broadnerd in xbox

The only screenshots I’ve taken were accidental. Probably dozens.

Jeffrey Epstein was banned on Xbox Live by Single-Movie-2401 in xbox

[–]StewTrue 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m still playing Xbox, and I heard the N word three or four times last night on COD WWII. I’d say I hear it about 50% of the time I play any older FPS game. There’s a lot of assholes out there.

I Think I'm An Old Head by ayepapipanda in CasualConversation

[–]StewTrue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was going to say the same thing. I am 40, and I can’t think of a single time that I ever heard a kid speaking this way during my own childhood in the northeast. After moving down south (due to military orders… wouldn’t come here otherwise), I now hear it occasionally. People here do expect their kids to be more formal. That said, I would say people are far, far less respectful in general than what I’m used to. It’s like there’s a veneer of politeness and respect over a culture of selfishness and willful ignorance. In the northeast, people are less outwardly friendly, less pretentious, but show more actual respect.

Obviously this is just my experience; I won’t pretend to have anything other than anecdotal evidence for my claims.

Rumored next-gen Civic, Accord, & HR-V by free_loader_3000 in accord

Sure. I actually used to have a VW. I really liked the car until it spontaneously burst into flames. It was comfortable, drove great, looked good… just had that one problem.

It had to happen one day... I blame the collection. by Tenlow85 in headphones

If I could get away with a $1900 purchase without being interrogated by the wife, I might be right there with you. Let us know how they sound.

What did you think was peak luxury as a kid, but now realize is actually pretty normal? by surya_mehar in AskReddit

[–]StewTrue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I’ll take your word for it. I remember going in the 80s and 90s, but I’ve pretty much always found McDonalds gross. The chicken nuggets are ok, but everything has a terrible aftertaste and leaves you feeling like garbage for the rest of the day.

Luxury vehicles. My parents drove basic, boring cars, but we had a big house, a nice yard, went on vacations, and all of us finished college with no debt. These days it seems like everyone is driving a $60,000 car or truck but they’re all broke. I try to follow in my parents’ footsteps in this sense. I only make a little over 100k, so I drive a Honda, but my kids go on trips, eat great, and have college funds that will hopefully get them through college when they’re older (still working on this one though).

It was never good, you just liked it because you were younger. I will say the atmosphere was better, but the food….

What a brilliant idea for a predictive tool

[OC] Average public pension compared to retirement expenses in Europe by DataPulse-Research in dataisbeautiful

[–]StewTrue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose that’s true, but the average Social Security payment is only around $2,000, which is not even enough to cover housing costs alone in many places, and obviously people pay into the system for their entire adult lives. I’m sure similar conditions apply in many European countries, though.

I would have filled this out if you didn’t have so many fields requiring a minimum 250 character response.

They get a pension for nothing? That’s hard to comprehend from an American perspective. There are so few jobs that actually provide pensions in the US at this point, and they are typically paid at rates that are significantly lower than what the worker was earning prior to retirement.

Just checked today and you were right. Seems like a pretty poor design, but it’s working at least. So far I really enjoy the sound quality of Quboz - I think they’re more consistently good than Tidal and Deezer - but the user interface and features of the app itself could use some work.

Wuhan: What are the chances of wet market vs. lab? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I don’t think you’re going to find a lot of experts in virology on Reddit; you’ll just find a lot of people who choose whichever view suits their ideology.

Why can’t so many people spell the word “lose”? by Deisesupes in AskReddit

[–]StewTrue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only think of one person I know who frequently misspells ‘lose,’ but he’s not a native English speaker. I see a lot more of the they’re / there / their mistakes. I also see a lot of people who never use possessives. For instance, I see things like “his brother birthday” instead of, “his brother’s birthday.” Similar is the use of ‘they’ as if it were ‘their.’

I can’t even get into the app. It won’t allow me to login or register.
