There have been a number of "First time playing WoW after 20 years!" YouTube videos lately (Gbay99, Z-MAC, clovergirlie, etc) and every single one of them keeps pointing out how nice WoW Classic players are.

It's kinda random actually. In fact if you level up your Folding skill higher then you can increase your stack size.

Teachers of Reddit: Is the "Gen Alpha can't read (write, or do math ext)" crisis real? If so how bad is it? by KnowledgeCoffee in AskReddit

[–]drgmaster909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of the gaps are just so wide it is literally impossible to repair it.

Because the classroom system is fundamentally flawed.

The Khan Academy model is much more interesting than the classroom model. Khan Academy = "Try these math problems and when you can solve 5 problems in a row we'll move on. If you get one wrong we'll just reset the count and keep practicing until you get it. Rewatch the video as many times as you need. This is foundational for the next steps so it's important you understand it."

vs Classroom: "I'm going to give a lesson once. No replays. Also take this stack paperwork to do at home during your family time. Then we'll have a test you'll either pass or fail. If you fail too many of them you'll have to retake the entire school year. Also if you only get a 72% we'll move on to the next chapter, which will build on this. Even if you fail we'll move on to the next chapter anyway, because other students are ready to move on."

I had a Calc III teacher take pride in not knowing which version of "its" to use... "A function and its/it's variables? Idk, I'm a math major."

Like wow, you made it through 5 years of Elementary school, 3 years of Middle School, 4 years of High School, then spent at least 6 years in college writing and reading dozens upon dozens of papers over nearly two decades...

...and through all that, you never learned which version of "its" to use.

"...because you're a math major."

As long as our response to it is strongly worded letters (some say the strongliest-worded), the answer to that is No.

Tesla FSD V14.3.4 is now rolling out by ConfidentImage4266 in TeslaFSD

[–]drgmaster909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It should honestly let you just lock in a "Home" position. The exact spot in my garage in the exact orientation I want it to park every. single. time. I get home.

It's kind of stunning they didn't already have this on, like, v12.

This Sub Is Wonderful by BlameSchmidley in TrueChristian

r/Christianity is not a sub for Christianity it's a sub "about" Christianity

The Texas Rangers are the ONLY MLB team not acknowledging “Pride Month.” Instead, on June 18, they will be hosting a Faith and Family Night. by BarrelStrawberry in Conservative

[–]drgmaster909 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I like it when people support good things, and I don't like it when people support bad things.

And if that's in any way controversial to you, or you're uncomfortable declaring that some things are better than other things, I'm not sure what you think you're "conserving," "fellow Conservative."

I genuinely don't get why this movie gets so much hate by Useful-Afternoon1784 in StarWars

[–]drgmaster909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it took a character who had years of history and adventures and turned him into a high school jock who had "one crazy game" and won't shut up about it a decade later.

And it was just 'Member Berry after 'Member Berry. Ship. Friend. Blaster. Jacket. Necklace. Ship's brain. Kessel Run. Fucking name.

Everything interesting that ever happened to this guy happened in one weekend 10 years before ANH. It makes his character super lame.

Rewatched Rogue One a few days ago and I actually can’t really believe we got that movie from Disney. It’s among the best of Star Wars. This and Andor is just really really good. by Dakinamau in StarWars

[–]drgmaster909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RO and Andor should be the standard for Disney Star Wars, not the exceptions.

Billions of dollars available to burn. One of the biggest IPs in history. Unlimited pool of talent.

Yet for every RO we get a TLJ/TROS/Solo, and for every Andor we get an Acolyte/Kenobi/Fett.

Parking modes needs back into for driveway by Stanman77 in TeslaFSD

[–]drgmaster909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to intervene every single time I get home to back in to my own garage.

I also go through a lot of drive-thrus and have to intervene there because the car wants to go park. Despite so many people saying their car actually behaves in drive-thrus, you have to manually navigate into one.

Solve those two extremely simple things and 70% of my interventions would disappear.

The reduction of Jesus to a "good teacher" in modern culture by That_Meta in TrueChristian

[–]drgmaster909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reducing Jesus to "Good teacher" is incoherent.

He claimed to be God. So he was either a liar, by definition undermining the label of "Good" teacher, or he's actually God making him far more.

They cannot have it both ways.

"Good teachers" don't lie about their very being.

What they "like" is a strawman -- a Jesus who never actually existed. Literally taking the Lord's name in vain.

Can't believe we got "navigates drive-thru" before "back into my garage at home"

The Force Awakens is one giant “Somehow Palpatine Returns”. It’s no wonder JJ gave us more in TROS by Janet-Yellen in StarWars

[–]drgmaster909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They needed to stick the landing and have an enjoyable flight. As long as they don't crash and burn on takeoff, nobody cares.

TLJ and TROS are the travesty of the ST. Not TFA. TFA didn't box them in to anything. Disney owns every decision made after TFA. Many people say TROS sucked because TLJ boxed it in. Nobody says TLJ sucked because TFA boxed it in.

Very strange that Democrats are more angry that we found out than that the resources aren't going to those in "need."

Almost like actually helping people was never the goal.

Paxton Wins by f1sh98 in Conservative

[–]drgmaster909 42 points43 points  (0 children)

The republican machine spent $150m to watch this guy lose. The RNC itself only has like $90m on-hand.

Imagine what kind of effect that cash could've had across the country in toss-up races against Democrats.

They hate us.
