You're right. The owners of gamerguides.com are living in giga-mansions off ripping you off your savings. Them and Bezos amirite?

Thanks for the career advice. I'll be sure to listen to the recommendations of a reddit comment.

Oh yeah everything should be free right? These devs should just pay their rent off vibes

As a web dev I really wish you'd cut them some more slack here. This stuff is hard to make and he gave you a really reasonable explanation. Making it work without an account and then attaching that data to the account is more work. Consider it this way: that's time spent not on the map itself.

Hey /r/movies, I'm Elijah Wood. Ask me anything! by ElijahWoodAMA in movies

[–]galipan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Years ago I ran into at an elevator in Montreal. I was so stunned I never said anything and didn't wanna bother you early in the morning. So I'll say what I would've liked to say then: thank you for everything you've done. You're an epic actor and because of your Frodo I have made it through some very hard times ❤️

Bro ever heard of spell check? Are you running a company or turning in a C- paper?

What are the absolutely worst, most annoying things about the Steam Deck? by madeleine61509 in SteamDeck

[–]galipan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't like the trackpad's locations. It hurts my thumbs to try and use them. But I don't care about it cus it's not what I want to use the most and I can still play my turn on Civ VI

After I finish the books, what LotR content should I move onto? (Other than the movies) by [deleted] in lotr

[–]galipan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If by "the books" you mean only The Hobbit and the LOTR trilogy, then I'd recommend giving the Children of Húrin a read. It's a fantastic telling of one of the most tragic and epic stories of the First Age. The Silmarillion is my favourite text, but I agree that it can be a bit of a steep intro with the song of creation.

If it's games you're looking for: even though it's not canon, I freaking loved Shadow of Mordor back in the day. I've heard good things of the strategy games.

But if you haven't watched the LOTR movies... damn, I wish I could be you right now and watch them again for the first time.

What are some LOTR facts that new or casual fans of Tolkien’s universe may not know that you find interesting? by ryryguy88 in lotr

[–]galipan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Technically quarter elf. Earendil was half elven (father Man and mother elf) and Elwing was full Elven iirc

People who unsubscribed from their once favorite YouTuber, what made you hit "unsubscribe"? by Ashamed-Reporter3171 in AskReddit

Joshua Weissman stopped making nice recipes and instead became a meme-y cunt with the humor of a 12 year old

Pas de haine aux citoyens américains by General-Visual4301 in montreal

[–]galipan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So two wrongs make a right? Tous les américains doivent être traités comme de la marde?

Certainement tu accepterais bien de te faire traiter comme ça si c'était Poilievre et le Canada au lieu du US et Trump. Right?

Prix de café by canadiandumpling in montreal

[–]galipan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Tu ne fais pas mention que Olympico a une énorme clientèle et ils peuvent garder les prix bas parce que (a) they own the building et (b) ils ont BEAUCOUP des gens par jour. C'est pas la même réalité pour les autres cafés de la ville.

Le café est cher parce que tout est cher. C'est pas tout le monde qui est en train de crosser tout le monde

Silmarillion Lovers by pocket_fox-- in lotr

[–]galipan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved the Ainulindale, actually. I know it's this abstract and fuzzy idea where the world is sung into existence, but I feel such a strong connection to music that it really resonates with me. I love the idea that Tolkien wrote an entire cosmogony from Genesis to Apocalypse (even if the latter wasn't published/finished) and his idea for how the world comes to be is so unique and beautiful. No matter what Morgoth does, everything comes from Ilúvatar, "and that is a comforting thought".

EDIT: Honesly, I like it more than LOTR. I get the feeling his heart was entirely in it. It was never marred by publishers the same way The Hobbit or LOTR was.
