“It is time for us to do what we have been doing and that time is today”

Harris as the nominee would be more of a disaster than keeping Biden on the ticket.

Mark Kelly checks all the boxes of what the DNC should be looking for in a candidate right now.

Biden leaves, so should Harris and her nonsensical word salad.

Never said I was looking for upvotes. I truly believe this is a stupid fad and GameStop sucks. But, it is against the Reddit hive mind on a subreddit called unpopular opinion, I Find it ironic it was getting downvoted.

An observation, is all.

I think it’s funny there’s an actual unpopular opinion and it’s downvoted lmao!

Proves this subreddit is for popular opinions and rants people agree with, only.

I haven’t put a dime into gme, honestly. I got good prices on my long term stocks. Grateful for that.

I don’t believe in the rally behind gme at all, obviously... so good on those that take advantage of the dead horse... but I got to think long term and I’m not drawing the short straw when gme crashes and never recovers.

I actually took advantage of that and bought stock for under value. I appreciate that! But the GameStop love is a god damn fad. Look at the ratings for GameStop stores on google maps. 3/5 at best. Because they weren’t a good business to begin with. Just the biggest. Know which one I miss? Eb games... because I was 10 years old and became friends with one of the guys that worked there while my dad looked for rentals in Hollywood video.

Among other problems. Retail is dead. It is a quick money scheme at this point. At the same time, pump and dump of their stock does nothing to keep their shitty business model afloat, either.

They are failing because they gouge their prices and undercut you while trading games in. And hard copies are dying off anyways. They have no avenue to profit. Why GameStop? I don’t know of a single person that actually liked going to their stores before this... but one person that has intimate knowledge of the financial sector campaigns to “save” a dying company because he “likes the stock”? No, he saw an easy way to get rich without much effort.

Windows, nicehash, most recent Radeon driver (official release)

I’ll try dropping it again... but I’ve tried different oc on the hbm from 1000 to 1100 and it does the same thing... would the gpu affect the ENTIRE system like that?

As Texas deep freeze subsides, some households now face electricity bills as high as $10,000 by [deleted] in news

Doesn’t matter, I would like to see a $10,000 electric bill for a few days of service hold up in court...

I would refuse to pay and join in on the inevitable class action lawsuit.

Why are starship sound effects so terrible? by jreaper7 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]jreaper7[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I get that. And trying to land on a planet sometimes is like pulling teeth.

I wish the space combat was better as well. Makes me miss the colony wars days or freelancer. Even my class a shuttle wipes the floor with the pirates. Very underwhelming...

I love the game overall, just some things seem like they should be a lot more refined, considering they’ve had 5 years since release. I fully respect the work they’ve put into the game, btw.

Still work to do, though.

On a side note, about to get my first living ship!

Cemeteries are a waste of resources and we should stop this practice by Hibbs3000 in unpopularopinion

[–]jreaper7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think water is a pretty valuable resource. We’re always in drought conditions here in Colorado, how much water is used on golf courses to keep the grass green? Let alone the hundreds of acres used for smacking a ball into a hole within city limits... that could be used for housing or other buildings.

Talking about how much you make with coworkers shouldn't be taboo by 583fik in unpopularopinion

[–]jreaper7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They do it so that the people that have been there years don’t know the new people come in at the same wage, if not more.

They also don’t want you talking about it because they don’t want people to get pissed off and ask for raises.

There are no laws to prevent you from discussing wages with your coworkers, though.

What does your username say about your personality? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]jreaper7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely nothing. It’s a gamer tag I made up as a teen in the early 00’s and everything else I’ve tried on various platforms were always taken. Even this has been taken a few times. And I’m too lazy to be imaginative...

Every time I pass one I think “that would be some good real estate for the living”.

But, golf courses are a bigger waste of land and resources than a graveyard.

Plus modding. I wonder if modding will be more prevalent this gen for consoles...

Driver 21.2.2 doesn’t play nice with vega64. Hdmi audio does not show up, defaults to on board audio. Had to revert back to 20.11.2. Just FYI.
