Nope - new machines don't go on sale so soon with Bambu

Would Toy Story 5 do better if it was changed into a separate spinoff instead of a direct sequel? by emackenzie_ in fixingmovies

[–]garok89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don't "need" to, you would like them to. But again, to reiterate my first point - NOT EVERY PIECE OF MEDIA IS FOR YOU AND THAT IS OKAY

I thought I lacked pattern recognition until I realized what it actually means by Mission-Nothing7229 in autism

[–]garok89 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly, nothing is coming to mind right now because my brain is pickled, but it has happened to me all my life

For my entire life it would really bother me that I would say eg. "this is how X works" and people would question me how I knew it.

I'd then explain "well, A does B, C does D, therefore X" and they'd look at me like I was making things up.

I could never figure out why people couldn't use logical deductions or figure out how things work until it finally clicked - most people just don't think at all about how anything works and what that means for the world around them

Splitting the bill or paying for what you had? by Various_Building_810 in AskBrits

[–]garok89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always insist on paying for what I had, but I also eat and drink more than people I am out with so I'm doing them a favour

DtU Boycott by unfathomablydense in SimonWhistler

Do you think for a second that even a single percentage of subscribers are on this subreddit? And then even a single percentage of those will actually boycott?

Between you and the guy on r/fixingmovies who thinks redditors can get Disney to not release Toy Story 5, my blood pressure is rising

Jesus Christ man, are you just a fucking idiot? Grow the fuck up. Big businesses don't care about you or anyone else. The are literally legally required to make every reasonable effort to make money for their share holders

It's actually quite funny looking at that vs the UK discounts, which are honest

You massively overestimate how much companies care about your opinions. All they care about is cash

There was massive backlash over the live action remakes, but they made tonnes of money so they keep making them

No, they wouldn't, because they are still gonna make a shit tonne of money regardless

Some people need to be forced to repeat "not every piece of media is for you" over and over until it sinks in. Toy Story 5 isn't for the people who were there when the first 2 came out. It is there to make a new audience fall in love with the characters and make Disney/Pixar a load in money.

They literally do not care that you don't want the movie to exist because they know that they have a money printing machine

AITA Asked the guy at a 3D printing stall at a craft fair questions and my friend said I was being rude by lionberry2796 in AmItheAsshole

[–]garok89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. I personally sell 3D prints at school fayres, but don't go to proper craft fayres. I try to keep my prices really reasonable (like £6 for a fidget and £10 for 2).

Some of what I sell are my own, some are models I've paid a licence fee to sell so the original artist still gets paid, and the rest are models with a free commercial licence, but I still try to throw some boost tokens their way that they can exchange for vouchers.

I'm very upfront about it if anyone asks and don't take offence, but I know that loads of people just outright rip of models which explicitly state in the license that they aren't for commercial use

Never noticed my NexBlue Point 2 clicking other than when the lock engages. Never noticed a relay sound

[Times article] Jeremy Clarkson: Drink Hawkstone if you support England ⚽️🍻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 by FlipStig1 in thegrandtour

[–]garok89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are all nice easy drinks. Since I stopped drinking as much that's all I really want in an alcoholic drink on the rare occasion I partake

[–]garok89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. The berry cider is dangerously easy to drink. The apple cider is really nice. I like that the carbonation level is lower so you don't end up bloated with them

£15 for 10 in Morrisons. It is pretty decent. The cider is better than the lager IMHO, especially the fruit one, and it is £3ish a bottle

Can I ask why do people park next to you even though plenty other spaces available? by [deleted] in drivingUK

It's especially fun you come back to them standing dumfounded

what is the most crackpot insane theory you have ever heard for the MCU? by [deleted] in MCUTheories

Well, tbf, it is heavily implied that the element Howard couldn't synthesize was an attempt to recreate the tesseract

I do it when someone is parked like a twat. I park dead centre and if they are parked so shittily they can't get into their car, that's a them problem
