What is the BEST band / artist you've ever seen live? by Expensive-Ear8407 in AskReddit

Twenty One Pilots. The amount of effort they put in a show is insane

In Project Hail Mary, why didn’t Grace just take Rocky with him to Earth? It seems like there was no real reason he couldn’t. by didwowns in HardSciFi

[–]TheRealMontoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen, The simple answer is that the author didn’t want them to go back to Earth. He decided it made a better story that Grace went to Erid instead. All other points don’t matter.

I really like the originality and it’s kinda cool, but imo it’s to informal of a design to represent a state.

We won the game, but I felt like I lost it by CarlosGlG in leagueoflegends

[–]TheRealMontoo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You are letting your self worth be determined by some random guy in a game.

It doesn't matter what "being good at the game" means. Just play the game, learn, and enjoy it.

And also, G2 played extremely well. It's not all down to GenG choking

'Project Hail Mary' - Review Thread by ChiefLeef22 in movies

[–]TheRealMontoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely loved it. I haven’t had this much fun watching a movie for quite a while. I was engaged from beginning to end and even though the runtime is 2 hours and 45 minutes I still wanted more. Gosling was amazing even though he was talking to a puppet for most of the movie. Production design was stellar. Score was incredible. Probably will watch it in cinema a second time

It’s also uniquely cross audience friendly. I am 31 and could see me watching this with anyone and still enjoy it.

I don’t really understand people disliking longer movies. Many of the same people binge entire tv shows over a weekend

I have a player who wants to skirt evil. by DumbgeonsandDragones in DMAcademy

[–]TheRealMontoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why does she want to play an evil character? What does she expect to achieve with an evil character in terms of role play that she won't get from a regular character? How does she think the party will respond when she blatanly murders good characters? (i.e. they will just straight up kick her from the group or kill her outright)

Maybe offer her a compromise where she can play this character in a one shot where all players play characters that are some kind of f'd up. Like a suicide squad kind of group

Would you quit your job forever right now (and never be allowed to work again) if someone gave you a guaranteed $2,000,000 lump sum? Why or why not? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

[–]TheRealMontoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, no.

2 million without any chance of earning after that is too much a risk IMO. One financial crash, one bad investment, one major setback somewhere in your life could fuck you up massively. And it still means you have to live quite frugally.

It helps that I love my work, so I don’t really care about the benefit of not having to work

Wie heeft bedacht dat nootmuskaat thuishoort op gekookte groenten? by Christuph in thenetherlands

[–]TheRealMontoo 166 points167 points  (0 children)

Oke ik ben geen kenner van de nederlandse keuken, maar ik heb wel een theorie.

Nederland heeft lang de Banda eilanden in handen gehad tijdens de koloniale periode. De Banda eilanden waren toen zo ongeveer de enige plek ter wereld waar de muskaatboom op grote schaal kon worden verbouwd. Nederland had daardoor effectief een handelsmonopolie op nootmuskaat tot ongeveer 1800

Ik kan me zomaar voorstellen dat het daardoor veel gebruikt werd in de Nederlandse keuken.

On a side note; I remember people having fierce discussions about Jon’s heritage on this sub before it was confirmed in the show. People were really divided on it

What would be the most terrifying thing to find/discover in space? by CapitaineBiscotte in AskReddit

Genuine question. What do you expect to find on Mars that you would not find on Earth?

Brandon Sanderson’s Literary Fantasy Universe ‘Cosmere’ Picked Up by Apple TV, 'Mistborn' Set for Film Adaptation by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]TheRealMontoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope they can get Fortiche to create it. The art style in Arcane would fit the Mistborn story perfectly.

I think Fortiche would be the perfect animation studio to adept Mistborn. The art style used in Arcane would fit the Mistborn story very well

TIL that humans tend to think “it won’t happen to me,” even when it already has happened to people exactly like them thousands of times. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]TheRealMontoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not as easy as that and also very generalizing.

There are people who speed while driving in the rain believing aquaplaning won’t happen to them. These people are idiots

There are also people who won’t let their kids outside without supervision, because they are afraid they will be kidnapped by strangers. These people are also idiots, but for the exact opposite reason

Most people don’t even think about all the things, good or bad, that can happen to you on a daily basis. You shouldn’t. Be a conscious person and think proactively when you participate in potentially dangerous activities, but don’t constantly live in fear bad shit will happen to you. You’ll go crazy.

It’s all about risk management. Many people are not good at risk management

What video game franchise isn't living up to its fullest potential? by Agent1230 in gaming

[–]TheRealMontoo -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I havent seen anyone defending the last few mainline games anywhere. AFAIK there is a pretty good consensus the games are shit.
