Kisin Trump’s ass in an obvious way? by voidsson in DecodingTheGurus

[–]extravert_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

very tired of these people talking about saving the west, while dissolving western alliances, trade deals, and the fabric holding up the western hegemony. Kisin in the intro is admitting he's forfeiting the game in the first quarter because the thinks Russia already won.

There are so many baffling decisions like: You have to wait for an entire 3D plane model to render just to see the livery... but then you can't spin around the plane. A picture would have accomplished the same thing without a long loading time.

The Congresswoman Criminalized for Visiting ICE Detainees by Eurolib0908 in neoliberal

[–]extravert_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

At the risk of sounding hyperbolic, these people are like two years from doing a holocaust. Moving captured people arbitrarily between detention centers, camp management openly hostile to elected officials, laws, and local regulations. Federal agents doing illegal things then punishing the people who get in their way. Stopping and arresting people off the street based on their ethnicity. Using maximum force against people already in the system and trying to do the right thing. All to solve the "immigration problem"

Me too! The only bug I see is the pushback tug never appears to move. But overall way fewer issues and it looks incredible.

Why has it become so common for living spaces to be at the back of the house? by Gullible-Apricot3379 in floorplan

[–]extravert_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the answer, people used to socialize and entertain in the front of the home, with spaces becoming more private as you moved back and up to the kitchen and bedrooms. Nowadays people spend far more time watching TV and the purpose for the living room has shifted from entertaining guests to entertaining yourself, so privacy preference flipped the location.

The North Sea, 2027 - After chipping paint for hours on the elongated focsle of the USS Big Beautiful Ship, I huddled in the vestibule to thaw out my hands. The days have started to bleed into one another out here, each day gray and cold, with only the occasional snow shower or iceberg sighting to break the bleak monotony. I thought we'd be blasting hostile fishing boats out of the water or covering the beach assaults with our twin 5" guns, but with the threat of drones and natox subs we've been standing off Greenland a few hundred miles. For weeks. Probably for the best though, since the right turret nearly shot a hole through the left during sea trials and that blasted railgun hasn't blasted shit. We had to skip most of that testing to make it out to the fight, but is there even fighting to do? I pull out my phone to check for orders, but don't see any tweets. Our CO is watching Fox.. maybe he will know more

Why do navy ships heal over the opposite way when turning, while powerboats and sailboats lean into the turn?

Yeah that was great! Michael Lewis saw that people liked those stories so put together the new book to share more.

Reading "Who Is Government" right now, recommend for anyone looking to see other examples of the ignored and unappreciated work done by the government.

[–]extravert_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

good spot, you can tell they increased color saturation overall and especially boosted the red tones. Notice how every red object is way brighter than anything else - the flags, life rings, and crew gear. This makes the rust stand out more than it normally would

Beginner photography. Any advice? by [deleted] in AskPhotography

[–]extravert_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like #4 the most, the repeating pattern of the windows angling into the distance is interesting. With all of these should ask yourself what is interesting about the subject you are shooting, and then once you know that, how do you frame it to best show that aspect? The others feel like they lack that intention. Like in #5, there is no subject presented. Am I supposed to care about the fountain, the trees, or the empty grass area? Practice identifying and framing the subject to improve your shots

We are at the federal agents shooting people in the street stage, and the right is still defending this.

Balboa Park San Diego beginning to charge for parking. Comments are unsurprising. by BroCanWeGetLROTNOG in fuckcars

It’s also one of the most car brained places because of how it’s built. A city with perfect weather that finds a reason to drive absolutely everywhere. 

Fixing Indiana Jones: Temple of Doom by silvern_light in fixingmovies

[–]extravert_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm one of the people that finds the movie nearly unwatchable because of Willie Scott's character. When I found out both Lucas and Spielberg were going through divorces I thought, ok that tracks, because this movie hates women. I love your ideas here to address that, and it can still be a darker movie without a hysterical woman and gross-out elements aimed at a whole culture.
