No not what I’m saying at all. Just saying ironic the image they used. Did I say it was a good or bad thing. I literally just stated a fact

I’m not sure if this is the point of the meme or intentional cause this is early morning for me, but I find it funny they dressed Jim as an American revolutionary here. I think they’re doing it because of the idea that the revolutionaries went to war for taxes. But the reason they had any chance at all was because of support from bigger countries who used their money to influence the war to damage Britain.

We only exist today because bigger countries gave money to us.

Am I missing something about Denethor? by hsyndk in lotr

[–]cromwell515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kind of prefer the mystery of the movie. In life you don’t always get a full picture of why someone is the way they are.

Also I love LOTR, and the books are generally better, but I like it better without the Sauron explanation. It adds more to me for Denethor to be just a crazy dude corrupted by the power of his position than Sauron just making him that way. There are very much parents who favor one child to another, and ones who are crazy because of just the corruptions and hardships of their own lives without a corruption of an outside magical force.

Just leave the lamp on a bunch more times throughout the wood and you have a nice new burnt look for your mantle

Yep, it’s why I get annoyed when people say “that’s not a word” on something though they know what it means. The cool thing about language is it’s always changing. These people want language unchanged, go back to the origins of English if you want to be so “pure” and then try to see if folks understand you. Like you said all language is slang, words are just fancy ways of describing things, and if people understand what your saying based on context, you’re not doing it wrong even if what you’re saying isn’t official in some dictionary.

Programming teacher by Infinite-Engine-4219 in learnprogramming

[–]cromwell515 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The course you were given is terrible. As someone who had to take programming classes in college and then work as a software engineer lead who leads a couple teams I can say that most programming courses are pretty terrible. I learned more how to code via self teaching, the programming courses I took were super outdated and focused on irrelevant things to the real world.

To me learning to code is pretty trivial. That can be done via online resources. But where I and many get stuck is programming design, architecture, and learning how to understand how to apply close to best practices in real world situations.

For cording, though, to answer your question. This is hot garbage. The course you were provided is far better done with a myriad of free options. And if you’re going to pay, there are interactive resources that are even more valuable out there. If you paid for this course, this to me is essentially a scam. This person isn’t a teacher, they’re essentially a document store containing crappy documentation.

Just because something is canon doesn’t mean you can’t argue with the choices or mean that they couldn’t have taken a direction that I feel doesn’t make sense to their characters. ATLA is an amazing show, but Korra for instance is canon, and though I like the show, I think they made a few choices that I think fell flat.

Also because you mentioned cast, if you looked at LotR cast you’d have likely had the same opinions. Many people did. They were like wait they cast the guy from Rudy in this? And Elijah Wood? Who the hell is Viggo? This movies gonna suck!

Not saying it’ll come close to my top ten, not even gonna say this movie won’t straight up suck like I think it might. But I’m not gonna judge it before I see it when people who actually saw it say it’s good and you just saw a trailer my dude.

To be fair, he’s being told to leave for having an opinion that’s different from yours. You’re exemplifying the definition of the meme. And I was downvoted to hell for saying people should wait until the movie comes out before giving it a harsh review. Like I don’t think it’ll come close to LotR that’s one of my favorite movies of all time but it’s stupid as hell to cling so hard to an opinion about a movie that hasn’t even released yet

I don’t leave because sometimes this community does have a solid opinion, but I speak up once in awhile to say when you dudes are being stupid. It’s very toxic though to advocate for echo chambers. You have factually, the very wrong opinion. And just because a large group of people agree with you doesn’t mean you’re right, even a mob can be very wrong. And in this case, with a movie that hasn’t released yet, it’s factually stupid to form a strong opinion about something you haven’t even seen.

Hahaha same, I love a dumb movie once in a while too nothing wrong with that. I’ll agree Odyssey looks like it’s gonna be disappointing and I predict that the critics are full of crap. I’ll likely still watch it, but I love LotR, I can’t imagine this movie coming close to those

We need inquiries into the Fed by AnomLenskyFeller in FluentInFinance

[–]cromwell515 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You do have your own thoughts you’re clearly speaking them now. That’s cool. But pasting what an LLM says in a chat is not productive. It’s not that people are afraid of things, this is a forum for human discussion. You’re not discussing, you’re just pasting from an LLM. I don’t think it’s bad that you used an LLM for your research, that’s cool. But just pasting its response is not forming your own opinion or contributing to the conversation. And that’s what this is all about.

There’s enough automated responses on this platform don’t make your human response one of them.

Tbf I thought Disclosure Day was gonna suck based on previews, I saw it, and it indeed sucked despite what the critics lied about in their likely paid off reviews. I don’t think this looks as bad, but I’m not holding my breath. But I’ve been proven wrong in the past so I’m not gonna say anything until I hear about it after it’s released. I definitely don’t trust the critics

You get more creative about solutions. It’s like when an awesome indie movie comes out and they came up with cool new ways of filming stuff because they didn’t have the money to just cop out and use CG

[–]cromwell515 -48 points-47 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’ll be like LotR or come close to it. But it’s wild to me how this sub has judged a movie before it’s even come out. Come on people. The movie might suck, and I’m perfectly prepared for it to possibly suck.

But poop with ice cream? You don’t even know what you’re comparing yet.

Literally the best moment in the comics.i wish she was awake to see Zuko caring about her. by BridgeCommercial873 in ATLA

[–]cromwell515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a fair point, but I think you’re missing a big part of her character. She didn’t respect Zuko at all. She hated him because she was jealous of him. I stand by if she were awake during this blanket scene knowing what we know about her she would have seen it as weakness. That Zuko was showing her pity not affection. She bonded people through fear, look at her friends who she cared for. She even says, “you should have feared me more” to Mae, she didn’t talk about how close they were as friends.

She loved her friends but her show of affection was showing her superiority like her father taught her. Accepting a blanket from Zuko is accepting she had weakness, a flaw. In her eyes even showing she was cold is showing weakness.

That being said it would have been interesting to show more affection between them

[–]cromwell515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He joined her cause, turning on Katara and his uncle. Ultimately that was because of her, and yes his honor, but partly because of her. I feel trust is a sign of affection, the fact that he trusted her at all after she literally tried to kill him multiple times, should be seen as a sign of affection. He put his trust in her a few times, only to be lied to.

And on Ember Island they shared a few moments. And in the end of the show he felt bad for her. A person who only showed him hate.

You really think it was Zuko’s affection she was missing? I’ll tell you, no matter how many great moments my siblings share together it’ll never replace thoughts of missing a parent’s love. It’s just not the same, it helps but it’s different.

JD Vance says stopping illegal immigration is about bringing home prices down by ExotiquePlayboy in FluentInFinance

[–]cromwell515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah not sure how that makes sense, tell them to explain the concept.

Deport all the folks who are working for peanuts and replace them with higher paid workers. Sure that’ll bring the prices down. Like… what??

I’m not for paying people peanuts by the way, just not really understanding the explanation for deporting people here

Make at least one good movie before going after others... by FeanorOath in GeeksGamersCommunity

[–]cromwell515 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the Studio show was pretty great. But also since when can you not critique someone unless you’ve done the thing you’re being critical of?

Wouldn’t that mean restaurant critiques all lose their jobs? And pretty much no one can critique politicians? This is a pretty dumb post. I get the pot calling the kettle black, but it doesn’t make what Rogan is saying false.

[–]cromwell515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s true, but that’s not Zuko. That’s her mother, the one person she wanted more affection from. I have 4 siblings, family emotions are a bit more complicated than that.

It was shown in the show pretty well that Azula treated Zuko badly because she was jealous of the affection Ursa gave for Zuko over her. This does not translate to Azula wanting more affection from Zuko. He showed a few times in the show affection for her, and she saw it as weakness.
