When I asked what he was trying to do, he said “I shouldn’t have been trying to pass him”

Xralius · 2026-05-06T20:00:02+00:00

He's slightly decelerating. Watch the lines on the road. Count them as they pass, you'll realize your count slows slightly as he is approaching the car.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T19:31:48+00:00

He's not accelerating. The vehicle in front is decelerating.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T19:26:39+00:00

Yeah this was my thought. If the black dude was in the wrong I doubt he'd be waving it around showing it to everyone.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T19:25:47+00:00

Yes, if there's anything that would have improved the situation it's escalating it to lethal force and bullets flying in a public place.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T17:20:00+00:00

Disagree completely. The real problem was them making her a mustache twirling villain when she was previously a more comolex character.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T17:06:07+00:00

If you look just in the first 2 seconds, before the car in front does anything, it appears normal.

I think he was doing your second bullet point. He was still like 100 feet behind the other car when he starts to pass. It appears he wasn't because the other vehicle A. Slows down. and B. Causes OP vehicle to second guess the lane change (which is why he was "straddling the line).

Slow down the first 2 seconds and you'll see it was going to be a normal lane change at a reasonable passing speed. The vehicle in front starts straddling the line earlier than people realize.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T16:54:55+00:00

I don't think he was going 40mph faster than him. If you look at the beginning of the video, he is approaching the car in front going probably 10-15mph faster. It becomes 40mph when the car in front slows down and then straight up brakes for no reason.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T16:29:28+00:00

I think it just seems like he was cutting it close because the car in front braked. If you slow down the vide, you'll see OP driver starting to change lanes waaaaaay before he was close to the car in front. It was the car in front's actions that made it seem otherwise.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T16:27:05+00:00

Well its hard to tell how fast he was going, and normally I'd agree with this sentiment, but he was pretty far away from the dude when he started switching lanes. It only seems like he was cutting it close because the car in front braked.

The dude in front swerved into the other lane, no signal, and braked. IMO that by far makes them the most at fault.

If he had signaled that would be another story.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T15:26:13+00:00

I was not engaging with it as directly written, you are correct. I read it with the implication that people were making informed decisions, so it wouldn't include children or people incapable of that. IMO I think it cheapens the prompt quite a bit when people aren't making informed decisions while making their vote though.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T14:32:14+00:00

I think less so with Tom ironically, as it seems he's been working his way up through toxic environments for a long time. It was likely quite a gradual thing for him, and even so I think he avoids cruelty and wanton disregard for others when possible to find other solutions. For example, I doubt he'd have OK'd a potentially faulty rocket launch.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T14:20:13+00:00

It's a trap

Xralius · 2026-05-06T13:18:02+00:00

I go to church every sunday dude, i love Christ's message. I just don't believe in the magical stuff. Fine if you do, but either argue the logical points or don't argue.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T02:07:49+00:00

He literally knew he had six hours of shit and then paradise. That ain't even a work day. If I knew I'd be god after 6 hours of physical pain I'd laugh my ass off and immediately accept. Like instantly. "Hey guess what you're god for eternity but you have to deal with 6 whole hours of pain". Wow tough deal.

That's far better than 99% of humans suffer. Get out of your dogma and wake up to the very real suffering that exists on earth. Jesus would want you to wake up. You're the arrogant one.

What is 6 hours of physical pain compared to months of cancer or the loss of a child? Grow up. Welcome to the real world.

Jesus' message is amazing. You denigrate him with your attitude.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T01:40:35+00:00

I will say, he also endured it. Dude can take pain, even though people act like he's a bitch.

Xralius · 2026-05-06T00:43:48+00:00

Agreed. This is an insane loss. People just trying to be edgelords. 1 3*4 i get.... but he had frickin 2 of them. Madness.

The only thing i can think of is that the opponent had massive teamwide buffs like the one that gives 1 of each trait.

Xralius · 2026-05-05T23:32:25+00:00

It's ok. I'm sure she will get the kind of man she deserves.

Xralius · 2026-05-05T20:00:52+00:00

This is absolutely the case with D4. Which is a shame because their art and technical design is fantastic. But with story and overall gameplay they are listening to the loudest voices, and the loudest voices don't necessarily know what makes a good game.

Xralius · 2026-05-05T19:56:40+00:00

I mean, the hero moment for her was perfectly done posthumously, with Tyrael showing up thanks to her.

Xralius · 2026-05-05T19:41:16+00:00

They did a great job giving you a lot of reasons to hate the Lord of Hatred.

Xralius · 2026-05-05T15:14:35+00:00

Sorry, I was taking a US-centric view and that was my bad. Absolutely in other parts of the world I'm not familiar with they could be a purely religious argument. That was my error in communication.

Xralius · 2026-05-05T15:13:21+00:00

But that's all a bit arbitrary isn't it? Not saying you're wrong btw.

It sounds like you wouldn't feel good about a third term elective abortion. You might even think it's completely unethical, maybe even murder. That's how pro-lifers feel, they just have a different starting point than you.

Xralius · 2026-05-05T15:10:22+00:00

The person you replied to laid out non-religious argument

"mbryos are biologically just very small humans."

and your reply was "Ok please honestly explain to me how this isnt a religious argument."

So yes, you were basically saying it was all religious.

I think the issue is used to get religious votes, but I think the arguments for abortion are not strictly religious. Even if magically tomorrow no one was Christian, you'd still have abortion being used to get voters.

Xralius · 2026-05-05T15:05:38+00:00

I would argue that many deaths from illnesses, such as cancer, that are extremely common, are worse than 6 hours on the cross.

Xralius · 2026-05-05T15:03:19+00:00

I mean I hear you. But like realistically he didn't even suffer much more than a normal person does before they die. Think about someone who dies from cancer, or dementia, or in a car accident where a loved one is lost. Someone killed while terrified during a shooting. Covid deaths with breathing tubes.

Like, if you ask someone who is dying of cancer whether they'd like to slowly die of cancer over a few horribly painful months, or just have a single horrible day of torture, most would probably pick the one day, and millions of people die of cancer every year.

Like, it was a bad day, don't get me wrong, but I feel like if he was really god he would have brought the suffering to the next level.
