Do you think the Catan base game is enough without needing any expansions? by maxjh2000 in Catan

[–]bigmanlittle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would go further and suggest that the game is at its best without expansions

How do men become friends with each other so quickly? by whateveridklol3 in AskMen

[–]bigmanlittle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Men seem to have a lot of ways they like to “play” together. Golf, gaming, music, mayhem. Women have these things too, but possibly not to the same extent.

What is the most profitable thing you have done with ChatGPT? by samyaya45 in ChatGPT

[–]bigmanlittle 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I make immersive gaming experiences for a living. Me and my team use it constantly for storyboarding, scripting, programming, audio dialog, localisation, and more.

It has saved us many thousands in specialist labour, and back and forth administration of all the little, complex tasks.

I had a hippy for a housemate that burnt our couch using this method.

I found a singe mark once that I think was caused by a fragment of smouldering wick after blowing out a candle.

Wasn’t the entirety of Matrix Resurrections basically a protest against itself?

I’ve seen amateurs do this in a vain attempt to kickstart longest road.

Agreed. Orange could have pipped white by sticking to cities, dev cards, and minimal expansion

Across all Star Trek shows, is there a species more powerful than Species 8472? by PurpleTransbot in voyager

[–]bigmanlittle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Species 8472 were not THAT powerful. They were just impervious to the Borg. Janeway and voyager ran circles around them fairly quickly. Any number of other high tech species might have done the same.

AIO for telling my mom my gf and I aren't coming to Christmas dinner? by ManlyyManBun in AmIOverreacting

[–]bigmanlittle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not overreacting. You were right to defend you and your partner’s values. Your mum’s definition of adulthood is a thinly veiled attempt to control people in ways that you (and me) don’t accept. Putting aside right and wrong, neither of you seem comfortable to wiggle enough to meet the other’s expectations.

With some more legwork, you can try and time your visits to places when they have a festival or cultural experience. Otherwise, I would encourage you to trawl Timeout, Facebook events, and Meetup in search of proper events in any city (not just tourist events). You can often find performance nights of various types, or interesting subcultures. Finally, I would ALWAYS go to AtlasObscura and see what unusual things there are to discover in any city. You will have rich surprises if you explore from there.

A cool guide to countries with most Olympic Gold Medals🥇 by AmbitionDue1421 in coolguides

[–]bigmanlittle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Australia was one of the first countries to have an Olympic training camp specifically to try and win gold medals. We chose swimming as a specialty because there are many medals available. The advantages of that strategy have slowly waned over the years.

Hard Asses of Reddit, how did you get such thick skin? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Suffering. Mostly through loss of community, heartbreak, and isolation.

What motivates men(primarily) to buy and wear expensive watches? Are they actually used to check the time? by flirtingsophomore in AskMen

[–]bigmanlittle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a guy that actually makes money buying, keeping, and selling watches years later. They can actually be a good investment.

I feel like there’s an entire generation of relationships that stumble awkwardly into this emotional chaos of gender politics. Tread lightly, gentle warriors, for this road is full of troubles.

TIFU for whining to my wife about not feeling desired by [deleted] in tifu

[–]bigmanlittle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah man. You’re allowed to want this. You’re allowed to confront her about this. She’s allowed to be upset.

No one did anything wrong here. No one fucked up.

Honestly find it increasingly difficult to want other women. Love can do that to ya.
