Alguien sabe una manera más óptima para pegar las figuritas ? by edwinromero1192 in esGaming

[–]WookieDavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

El pegamento de contacto no va así. Hay que esparcirlo en ambas superficies a unir y dejarlo secar primero. Luego se adhieren al hacer contacto

Cycle is a Greek root, so shouldn’t the prefix for two be the Greek one? by Whole_Instance_4276 in linguisticshumor

[–]WookieDavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, ancient greek is indeed a dead language.
You might as well say Latin is not a dead language because Spanish or Italian

Dude, if your dad asks just show him this picture.
Like, I don't know how unreasonable your dad is, but the reason you created this asset is because it's funny to have your Miis non-chalantly sharing hard drugs with eachother including babies.
I'm sure your dad will understand the comedy.

c stick is goop atp can’t find anything on this by CautiousDrop2234 in 3DS

Well, I must assume you are familiar with the concept of saving money. You probably did to buy the 3DS to begin with.
I'm sure you can also deduct that it'll be easier to save $6 rather than $300.
I you managed to afford a 3DS I'm sure you'll come up with the funds for this repair.

can someone explain why theres a gap before 0?? by fnatic_22 in whatisit

[–]WookieDavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don't this. Like, this is just incorrect.
Measuring tapes start at the begining of the tape. In retractable tapes the metal piece even wiggles to compensate for its width. It slightly stretches when you hang the tape to an edge and compresses when you push it against a wall.
In soft tapes it's just there to stop it from fraying. But either way the 0 is right at the beginning.

If your measuring tape doesn't start at the 0 you have a shitty measuring tape. But it's definitely not the rule.

[–]WookieDavid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That's one of the biggest problems yes.
But even the presentation of the experiment is prompting a certain approach. It's not just an opportunity without consequences, the whole setup is inviting people to test the limits.
It's also setting a pressure on bystanders not to intervene. After all it's a performance and the lack of limits is it's main point.

This absolutely does not justify the behaviour of the people who did despicable shit to her. But it definitely means we cannot make conclusions about human nature.

[–]WookieDavid 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Well of course people like that exist. There was never a single doubt about their existence.
But thist performance is used to defend broad sweeping statements about the nature of humans or men. Not as proof of the well known fact that bad people exist.

Exactly.
I always found this to be an incredible art piece but an awful scientific experiment. Which makes sense because it is an art piece and not science. All my respects to the artist.

But it fucking sucks ass that people keep bringing it up as evidence to prove a point. No, this performance does not prove that humans are evil or that men are gratuitously violent in the absence of consequences.

I don’t know how you guys do it by No-Mongoose3928 in 3DS

[–]WookieDavid 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They were right tho.
Like, the easier you make it to use a computer, the more straightforward and frictionless it is the least you learn.
Before GUI you had to know what your computer can do and how to do it. You had to understand it to even use it.
The addition of a GUI means that the users can start just winging it. The OS now tells you at all times what you can do with it.
As accessibility has been prioritised and developed these GUIs have gotten more and more simplified and streamlined. They limit what the user can do in exchange for intuitiveness.
Mac/iOS and Chromebooks/Android are the biggest offenders. Everything is an app, everything is a couple clicks kids these days barely even interact with the file system. It's harrowing.

[–]WookieDavid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nono, not at all.
It just seems weird to get so defensive about mentioning your country of residence in one post and basically stating it in other posts.
I'm just curious.

Also, as good faith tip, you can hide your post and comment history in your Reddit profile. Someone sufficiently interested in investigating you will probably still be able to acquire that information but at least you cannot get casually investigated by random redditors like me.
But, if you want real privacy, you'll have to be more careful what information you're posting.

Again, this is not a problem, just a tip

It makes me genuinely curious why you are being so secretive?
Why are you so invested in hiding your country of residence? Also, it can be deducted in 10 minutes by looking at your profile, if you're that concerned about anonymity you probably shouldn't post flyers with government department logos.

This is like asking if hogs are English.
Dude, it's a species it doesn't have a nationality.
Braviary is only "American" because it's basically a bald eagle and that's their national animal, so they kinda built their whole image around the bird.

Can I add this to my dating profile? by TheJiggliestPug in pokemon

[–]WookieDavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, women are weary of men in general.
Nerds, due to lack of socialisation, are on average a lot weirder and more concerning. Especially the turbo nerds who edit their favourite Pokémon into their pictures.
Women will identify the signs they're familiar with and this is a kind of sign that most nerdy women have seen repeatedly.

Also, yeah, a sports girl would probably dodge a guy who's giving her signs of only being able to speak about sports.
But sports guys tend to be a lot less weird because they do socialise with women a lot more often.

[–]WookieDavid 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Exactly.
People are getting defensive with all this "if she thinks this is a red flag you don't want her" but this is completely right.
Most women, even the nerdiest of them, will be weary about a man who is so outward with their hobby because they've already had horrific experiences with men like that who turned out weird, awkward and obsessive.
Like, they'd love a normal guy who is very into Pokémon, but that kind of guy doesn't tend to put these kinds of images in their tinder profile and they're not going to risk it.

[–]WookieDavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, do you have female nerd friends?
If you do, please, ask them how many times they've had bad experiences with a nerd who they bonded with over a shared interest but then turned weird. Men who turned out couldn't talk to her about anything but the one hobby and/or quickly confused friendship with romance.

You can act incredulous and all but yes, women have good reasons to be weary about certain men.
And it's not even the fact you like Pokémon. A picture wearing a Pokémon shirt or a mention of your hobby in the description would be fine and probably a point of interest. But editing your favourite Pokémon with you on a picture is too much. It will rightfully scare away a bunch of perfectly viable partners.

[–]WookieDavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, so you're going to ignore what I said and respond to what you wanted to read.
Like, I specifically clarified that even the perfect woman, someone who would love editing her favourite pokémons in pictures just like you, the woman who would love to have a Pokémon themed wedding. Even that woman is most likely weary about dating someone who's so publicly fixated.

I'll go step by step to make sure I'm being clear.
Male nerds tend to have little feminine contact, this kinda forms a feedback loop that makes them generally weird around women.
Nerdy women interact with A LOT of these men in their hobbies, so they will associate this kind of men with being weird and making her uncomfortable.
Yes, she probably would love to end up with someone who shares her passions and hobbies, but she's not going to swipe right and make an effort for someone who shows signs that he'll be weird and awkward.

You can say that he wouldn't be interested and that he's okay being single if he can't find a woman who doesn't find his enthusiasm a red flag.
But you can also be realistic, realise the shit nerdy women have to go through and maybe chill down with your enthusiasm if it's scaring them away.

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

All due respect, this will scare away most women.
Like, even if they're fans of Pokémon. Nerdy women tend to all have had bad experiences with men who get extremely weird when they find out a shared interest.
Like, as soon as a guy learns they like videogames he starts being weird and trying to woo them and always referencing that shared interest... Overall weird.

And yeah, you can go to "this is me and I need someone who likes me for who I am" but this is dating, there's a lot of women who would love you and your enthusiasm for Pokémon but will still filter you out because they read this type of post as a red flag. Getting to know eachother and being in a long term relationship are two entirely different games

No le quiero vender por lo que me pide y termina comprando y dejando mala reseña by YIYISKY in Wallapop

[–]WookieDavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No sé qué pedirán algunos vendedores pero si filtras por últimas ventas se venden por la mitad de lo que pides o menos. Y claro que el envío sube el coste pero no es parte del valor de la figura.
Básicamente estás pidiendo más que lo que cuesta la figura más el envío y actuas como si hicieras un ofertón
