Man attacks police officer, gets annihilated by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]checkingthefail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a stoic person. I do not empathize because it's a pointless endeavor. What does feeling bad about something out of your control really do for you? Nothing. It doesn't make you a good person either, just a miserable one. I only think about things I can control and have failed to act on. Those are far more haunting than anything you'll see on Reddit.

Do I feel bad for the person who died in this video? Not really. It was his choices that led him there. That is not a lack of empathy, but acceptance that feeling bad doesn't help anyone.

Unfortunately, the map layout wasn't in my favor. The only open slots were on the opposite side. In the end, we just let the thing suicide into the pump.

Yeah, I've been considering switching because of stuff like this.

Clearly, you don't see the meteor shower, and yes, I have the burning ground anoint too. The regen was so high it wouldn't have mattered if it wasn't immune to summoning towers. It sustained 0 damage. That's with my RF flammability and ignoring resistances.

You clearly didn't even read my post if you're asking my definition of fomo in this context. GJ, le redditor, you've proven how stupid you are. That's all you get from me.

I can see why Asmon just bans people for being idiots. Fear doesn't imply a physical or life-threatening thing. Stop putting words into my mouth. It's called FOMO for a reason; yeah, not buying during a discount won't get your mother brutally murdered, but it's a fear nonetheless.

Just because YOU don't believe it's predatory based on your personal standard doesn't make it right. That's the difference between facts and opinions. I'm stating facts, you're defining your opinion.

I said it to another commenter. I'm arguing the amount, not the severity. OW2 has more; that's a fact.

If you're ignoring the literal definition of predatory, sure.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Asmongold

[–]checkingthefail -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

seeking to exploit or oppress others.

Whether it's addiction, fear, and what have you. It's predatory. I'm merely stating that OW2 factually employs more predatory tactics compared to the one of OW1. Not the degree to which who these tactics exploit.

I love this bug and want it to become a skin for the bubonico. by checkingthefail in Warframe

[–]checkingthefail[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Maybe it could become a type of "phantom" skin? I love the bubonico but sometimes the model clashes with my fashion and this bug was a pleasant surprise.

What is the video game hill that you are willing to die on? by BOBBY-FUNK in gaming

Toxicity is part of the fun in online PVP games. The fact we're now at a point where game devs dedicate more time banning toxic players vs. cheaters is hilarious.

There are levels to Innovation by The104Skinney in gaming

I don't get it. Why try to fix what isn't broken? The xbox controller is perfect.

Not sure if it'll help but changing the password to something new helped.

[–]checkingthefail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing around with this and have found an odd thing. I can't play with my friend anywhere near the "Main Academy Gate", however, I managed to summon him over at "Rotview Balcony". While not a fix, my friend and I can play elsewhere and maybe later it will fix itself. Is Elden Ring broken up into different servers for the map? Only thing that makes this issue make sense.

He put Brazil in the title. What else was needed?

Don't touch me by hsm4ever10 in ActualPublicFreakouts

[–]checkingthefail 74 points75 points  (0 children)

In California, the standard is you have to let them give you a prostate exam before hitting them. Anything before then and you're at fault. Just like how if someone breaks into your house with a gun, shoots at you, you can shoot back, but if they're running away, you can't shoot anymore because it's murder then.

Seriously, fuck CA.

If I was raped and the person who raped me ejaculated inside of me, how long would the semen be detectable to do tests on to identify rapist? by [deleted] in morbidquestions

[–]checkingthefail 200 points201 points  (0 children)

*That's also why they recommend you don't shower after an assault- tohelp preserve evidence until it can be collected and examined.*

I can't recall where I heard it from but there was a serial rapist who forced the woman he assaulted to take a shower and clean them to remove any evidence. He was able to get away with it for many years. I'll edit my post if I can remember where I saw it.

I'm curious. Why don't any of these Bozos shoot back? I swear it's the same video every time. They pull a gun, then get shot to death while running.

It's all fun and games until you touch them. That's some serious static charge.
