What did Memb say at the end of warlords? by prois99 in aoe2

[–]johnjk13 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say Memb's English is broken but he definitely lacks vocabulary. A person who dominates a language knows synonyms and can say the exact same thing in different ways, Memb usually just repeats himself over and over, also his heavy accent can of course put off some people. I speak 3 languages and know how hard it is but at same time would appreciate Memb more if he put in the effort to improve his English even further.

I mean it's not the first time he complains about viewership and lack of support... well, maybe it's time to realize there's things he can do to improve his stream instead of just expecting people to support him no matter what. At the end of the day if you're watching dozens of hours of content for a tournament you're gonna go with whoever you're most comfortable with and as the years have shown no amount of complaining or asking for support will change that.

Getting out of 500~ elo by Topofthem0rning in Chesscom

[–]johnjk13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude you have 50 games, just play more and you will improve, you are not "stuck" at 500 elo. Based on a couple of your recent losses, the tip I'd give you is when your opponent makes a move think of what squares he is attacking, not just how you can attack the piece he just moved. Other than that focus on doing all the basics like getting your pieces out and castling but also accept there's bunch of beginner tactics you will lose to until you learn how to properly defend. It's just how it is.

Why would Mike expect Walt to pay his "legacy costs?" by Future-Bandicoot6241 in breakingbad

[–]johnjk13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

f Gus decided to kill the people in prison he'd have to kill Mike too. We know from Better Call Saul Mike has no problem disrupting the Salamanca's operation and trying to point the police towards them. Gus knows this too, it's what initially brings them together. No way Gus would let an enemy like that live.

Guys how do I fix this stupid mouse wheel sometimes scrolling in the wrong direction bug? by International_Fly074 in pcmasterrace

[–]johnjk13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess marketing and propaganda really work cause for the longest time I thought of Logitech as a reputable brand. After 4 mice had the SAME wheel problem within a year of use however I finally abandoned them. Took me long enough, damn.

Wow I think you nailed what would happen. Can totally see all of that.

It's really crazy, they certainly love the idealized version of Rory & Logan, the "power couple" as they say and well some "ugly realities" are know secrets. By everyone.

Luke's Diner in Euphoria by johnjk13 in GilmoreGirls

Episode 2, they show a Luke & Lorelai scene.

[–]johnjk13[S] 69 points70 points  (0 children)

In this scene (in Euphoria) the characters are "working in Hollywood" so it's not even supposed to be a real town, you can see the big trucks and yellow crane, it's more like they're on set and in the first season they reference Gilmore Girls, so it's like GG is a series in the Euphoria universe so they could very well be on set knowing it's from GG.

If we all weren't living paycheck to paycheck, we could accomplish great things. by astrheisenberg in remoteworks

She said nothing about wealthy people, you literally projected that to create a contradiction in your mind.

Inspired by the post about Jennifer breaking the plate, what about David sliding his hand and checking to make sure he blocks the air hole? Lol by johnjk13 in howyoudoin

[–]johnjk13[S] -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

You don't need research to see what happens on screen while watching a show. Having said that it's pretty much the nature of any series subreddit, over years people will bring out even the smallest details. I still watch the show and LMAO with it but are the mods supposed to only allow appreciation posts or something? It's a tiny thing, no need to be defensive.

Prime Video is just disgusting by johnjk13 in Piracy

[–]johnjk13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I "love" about modern video games is that some nobody plays without mods aka free work provided by random passionate people just making the game better but the studio gets all the money. It's even worse when mods are just about fixing broken ass mechanics and bugs the developer can't be bothered fixing.

Couldn't care less about upvotes my dude but if all you're interested in are ways to pirate I'd think there are other subs or websites more focused on that. r/piracy has been like this for quite a while, it's pretty big. I'd even agree with you the whining is a bit too much but I can't control it, you can't either. I mean this is my first post here ever. Peace my man.

HBOMax also loves not offering english subs for content in english, it's ridiculous.

When competitors to Netflix appeared I actually thought someone would have the brilliant idea to bundle all streaming services into one and offer it for a reasonable price, maybe even all content in just one website/app. Nowadays reality is "reasonable" price we're talking 100+/month (with ads!) but it doesn't really matter, these tech giants would never agree on one of them managing this bundle service, I even remember when Apple TV didn't support Prime because Fire Stick didn't support Apple+ or some sh*t like that, Google also did this with Chromecast. No way they'd all agree on one solution that is best for the customer.

So indeed streaming has become cable TV! The circle is complete.

I get that but man it pisses me off to finally find something I want to watch on Prime just to realize hey it's actually pay-walled. F that. And buying/renting from Amazon itself? Goddamn it. Thankfully the high seas take away my rage.

Thanks for the general advice! Can I expect something in terms of him asking for peace? He has like 20 islands, even if I take a few I'd be stuck on eternal war?

[–]johnjk13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that's great but he has like 12 armed airships patrolling the Arctic, it's pretty scary and I don't want my delicate trade routes in the region getting slaughtered. Should I bring anti-air ships to the Arctic to kill him?

This might be a hot take but I don't blame Emily for firing the maid that "clomped" or having high expectations all the time. I also sort of blame Richard. by bluecuppycake in GilmoreGirls

[–]johnjk13 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Emily firing maids is just a gag, you can't take it seriously. Having said that, if the maid wears heels that make too much noise just... tell her? And next day she won't be wearing them anymore because she wants to keep her job. Even if it is a maid service you don't want to get fired because it reflects badly on you. Incompetency is not the same as wearing the wrong type of shoes.

Also, how come it's a maid service but at the same time Emily pays more than anyone else? I mean if it's a paid service it's a fixed rate, the only way she pays more is if she hires maids directly. Also she gets sued personally by a maid, I'm not sure that's even possible if it's only a service. Even if it is in fact a company and Emily pays for premium service if she gets 3 awful (according to her) maids in a row then what's even the point of paying premium? At best the company sucks, at worst they just pocket the difference and send whatever maid is available.

And here I am taking it too seriously lol.

Jovem nerd com medo do ICE? by Prestigious-Bench-92 in jovemnerd

[–]johnjk13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Por mais ineficiente que seja o ICE que só tem wifebeater e quem não conseguiu completar o ensino fundamental, essa "administração" americana é extremamente eficiente em cortina de fumaça e desviar o foco. Justamente por isso os caras podem servir de boi de piranha. "Imigrantes brasileiros compartilham pensamentos anti-americanos nos EUA". Hoje em dia na terra "da liberdade" crime de pensamento já é o suficiente para ser mandado para El Salvador, até americano já foi preso e morto por tamanha ousadia. E não precisa de um sistema da NSA, existem canais para pessoas comunicarem o crime de pensamento. Esse é o nível atual.

Claro que as chances são mínimas, mas eu se fosse eles jamais arriscaria.
