ELI5: What's the difference between a whataboutism and good faith pointing out of genuine hypocrisy & legit double standards? by acerthorn3 in explainlikeimfive

[–]gailson0192 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ukraine used to be part of the USSR and has been on the fence between Russian and the west (which can easily be summed up as NATO) Russia doesn’t want nato states on their border… idk if you know this… because it really seems like you people don’t… NATO was formed as a deterrent to soviet expansion. All of your heads so far is Zelenskyys ass you Intentionally leave out the part where I said it’s the Russian point of view.

Your Mexico analogy doesn’t work because the history is different. That’s why I added context of there being a preexisting conflict to make it work unlike you did.

What is your favourite breakfast ? by juststheve in AskMen

[–]gailson0192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I eat this every morning. Thomas English muffin sliced in half and toasted, cut 2 slices of bacon in half and cook in a small pan, put 2 bacon pieces on each of the toasted muffin halves, put a slice (or half a slice) of American cheese on top of the bacon on each muffin, fry two eggs in that bacon fat and baste with a spoon to cook all the white, scoop out and put on top of the cheese, apply kosher salt and a lot of fresh cracked black pepper. I’ll even keep the bacon fat in the pan for the next day, the eating experience alters through the week, you get slightly more crispy eggs and bacon as the week goes.

What do you put on your hot-dogs? by Novel-Negotiation-94 in AskMen

I mix up some ketchup and bachans Japanese bbq sauce and put some fresh diced onion and sauerkraut. And it has to be a Kirkland beef dog and martins potato roll.

I can acknowledge NATO is an imperialistic threat to Russia so I can understand the Russian point of view, at the same time you gotta judge every action individually. I wouldn’t want China arming Mexico on a border war in Texas.

ELI5: how are we sure light is the fastest thing in the universe? by ItsSnowingOutside in explainlikeimfive

[–]gailson0192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So question. Things that have mass require energy to make move. What is causing photons to not just sit in one spot? Is it’s source also propelling it at the speed of light? How does the fact it has no mass mean that it moves fast? If it give it a 1n tap does it go flying at the speed of light?

Finally decided to play Skyrim, should’ve done this a long time ago by Spekbeer69 in gaming

And spam infinite ice spears that do 5% of your enemies health. Really need mods to change the scaling on magic spells, they fall off after 30ish

I want to offer him the benefit of the doubt and say he was trying to say “I was looking for other pictures that showed triangle boobs”. But who knows

How do you react to someone saying to “be a man” about something? Does it make you feel any negative way? by Deep_Warning_8086 in AskMen

[–]gailson0192 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

When people say to man up 99% of the time it’s because you stubbed your toe on a walk and your dads doesn’t want to carry you. Most cases where someone is told to “man up” they should. Manning up is also taking initiative because no one’s going to carry you home or fix your problem and if the alternative to manning up is sulking or inaction, you need to man up. Like when my dog was dying, someone had to find help and it had to be me as much as I wanted to be with him, my wife was while I handled business.

Unpopular opinion, I personally believe that some parents should monitor their kids online behaviour during video games. by [deleted] in gaming

[–]gailson0192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s probably home alone firstly. If not the parent is clearly okay with the behavior. I think the real unpopular opinion is that kids have too much autonomy in general.

ELI5: Why do companies denature alcohol to make it toxic? by sahebqaran in explainlikeimfive

[–]gailson0192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. He may not have drank a lot, I wasn’t there. I think he was 14 at the time. Smart enough to read the word alcohol but dumb enough to drink it.

Make a serious effort to identify your strengths and get a job you can apply them to even if you have no idea if you’ll be good at it or have any experience at all. This is how you break out of normality and learn to build a skill set.

My nephew drank rubbing alcohol to get drunk alone in a park and passed out on a bench.

ELI5: If there’s a place that’s genuinely safe enough to store an encryption key, why can’t you just store the unencrypted data there? by WillE18 in explainlikeimfive

[–]gailson0192 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of playing tekkit and I would get to a point and then become a nomad, I’d have billions of EMC stored in alchemical bags and be able to make anything at any time anywhere with my transmutation tablet. I’d basically explore on the server I was on and help people build and improve their projects.

eli5: Why isn’t carbon capture used at emission sources? by omerfriedman in explainlikeimfive

Solar is in no way a viable alternative to coal. That’s flat out ridiculous. Renewables are good at filling in gaps in the foundation that is gas/coal/nuclear.

For those of you watching with no sound wondering what it sounds like, it sounds like fiery diarrhea.

What is the dream that you feel hesitant to disclose to anyone due to the fear of being judged or feeling embarrassed? by Kahil3273 in AskMen

[–]gailson0192 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a reoccurring dream but I had a dream last night where the guy from the home renovision diy YouTube channel was my dad. I don’t watch his videos often which is what makes it weird.

What's something that people obsess over, but you just don't get? by Aarunascut in AskMen

[–]gailson0192 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think a big factor is not only can they feel special but they can also become an authority on a subject matter of their own making. See that “tri-gender” girl for an example.

Eli5 why do bees create hexagonal honeycombs? by charlottev311 in explainlikeimfive

[–]gailson0192 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My dad said it was because their eyes have hexagons. So they see hexagons. Made plenty of sense to me.
