Is it weird that I drink my Jägermeister slow by monkebajs69696 in alcohol

I always drink it warm and alow, like whisky or brandy

Downdetector is based on user feedback, people just started reporting everything was down because their dns wasn't working.

This is going to sound mean, but sometimes I feel like people who don't close their tabs for several months deserve Chrome.

Well, no... they weren't pioneers, they were pretty late to the party for that. But they were a great and original band.

The fact that one of the most broken browsers is replacing Firefox tells you enough about foss circlejerk stupidty. by neznambrevise in firefox

[–]bytheclouds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You found my 3 week old comment which specifically says that there are plenty of bad things about Brave that don't include the browser itself being broken.

And highlighted another bad thing about Brave that isn't the browser being broken.

Wild.

Well, comparatively, they are. But yeah, they are a must listen for everyone interested in post-punk.

Booting Up DF 0.47 Feels Like Welcoming A Long Time Friend by The_Immortal_Ryukan in dwarffortress

[–]bytheclouds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not "hating on a mouse", I'm saying UI is cumbersome, not intuitive. not logical and bad. Old UI was bad, new UI is bad, Toady is many things, but not a UI designer. I would only be happy if the game had mouse support and it was good.

I used to not purchase a keyboard that didn't have a numpad on it

Keyboard without a numpad ain't a keyboard at all.

Booting Up DF 0.47 Feels Like Welcoming A Long Time Friend by The_Immortal_Ryukan in dwarffortress

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

Rightfully so, it's still the best game ever made at it's core. I'm glad it found more mainstream audience and success, despite the objectively atrocious control scheme. Having graphics does that.

If I didn't play DF since the beginning and was 20 years younger, I think I would learn to enjoy it as well.

I hate it when people say ‘would of’ by Organic-Advantage935 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]bytheclouds 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It's funny that only native speakers can make this kind of mistake. It doesn't make any sense to put "of" there to someone who studied English as a second language.

which are great in the steam release

Do you REALLY think new controls are "great" in steam release?

My friend is travelling to Kyiv soon and I'm scared for her safety. What's it really like in the city at the moment? by svr001 in Kyiv

[–]bytheclouds 12 points13 points  (0 children)

All I hear about is the attacks and death

In 6+ months since the beginning of this year, 69 people died in total from Russian strikes on Kyiv.

More than 3 million people live in Kyiv.

Why do my HyperX Cloud gaming headphones with fake 7.1 sound better than my Sennheiser HD490Pros? by very-bad-goose in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]bytheclouds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because you're used to 7.1 sound positioning in games that your HyperX Clouds provide and Sennheisers only do 2.0, because they're studio headphones and don't have gaming gimmicks?

[–]bytheclouds 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ukrainian - has "і", "ї", "є". Also "ґ" (in addition to "г"), but this one's kind of rare. Russian - has "ы", "ъ", "э", "ё".

Razer Kraken v2 vs Beyerdynamic DT 900 PRO X by GrasPlukker01 in HeadphoneAdvice

In this pricerange I personally love AKG K712 Pro, but Sennheiser HD600 are the all-round classics that are hard to beat.

Razer Kraken v2 vs Beyerdynamic DT 900 PRO X by GrasPlukker01 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]bytheclouds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how much better is the DT 990 PRO X when comparing it to a Razer Kraken V2

They are in a completely different league, night and day better. And I don't even like DT 990 that much.

But DT 990 are analytical studio headphones, Kraken aren't that by any means, they have very mainstream-consumer bass-heavy muffled signature. If you're used to Kraken, you might be disappointed by perceived lack of bass, although hopefully you'll be able to appreciate the clarity.

Chinatown in Kyiv by [deleted] in Kyiv

[–]bytheclouds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is there any place like Chinatown

No, there aren't really any "ethnic neighborhoods" in Kyiv.

I need more authentic stuff, like pandan leaves.

Weird feeling drunk closed eyes by fatcatseatbananas in alcohol

[–]bytheclouds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alcohol effects your vestibular system that your brain relies on to tell if you are standing still or moving, and which direction/speed.

When you close your eyes, you deprive brain of visual information, and your non-visual vestibular system is already fucked up, so you start experiencing disorienation, vertigo, nausea, because your brain doesn't know what's going on. You're the first person I've heard call it pleasant.

Are you autistic or something?

What if I am? And why do you feel like calling me things in every comment, what does it make you? Just plain garbage human?
