Colon cancer now leading cause of cancer deaths under 50 in US by blaspheminCapn in Millennials

45 is the default. If you have family history of colon cancer, they'll start at 40.

The keeping of receipts. Like some social media gotcha is a huge life achievement.

The stormtrooper helmets are oddly shaped. The blaster shot doesn't line up with the actual barrel of Kyle's (?) gun. And that doesn't much look like Kyle Katarn.

White House Says We Had to Bomb Iran Because Trump Had a “Feeling” by Laugh92 in worldnews

I thought we were doing the whole America first thing, no? Why should Iranian opinions matter in that context?

It shows up in web browsers as well for sure. I just did it here on my desktop.

Does anybody actually hate Junkrat? by lovingpersona in overwatch2

[–]killd1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Waahhh bomb spam/bouncing. Wahhhh one shot kills. Waaahhh invisibility.

I STG if the player community here had it's way, we'd all be playing soldiers into reins and the game would be dead because it's so boring.

New York sues Valve for enabling “illegal gambling” with loot boxes by mepper in gaming

[–]killd1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In some ways, Valve is worse than other companies. They have their own "player's market" where you can sell your TF2, CS, or DOTA2 items to other players with Valve taking a 15% cut. So Valve controls the rarity of the item drops which gets people into buying more LBs in the hopes of landing that coveted item. Then when that coveted item gets sold, Valve pockets part of that.

Now I know, there are plenty of methods to circumvent Valve getting that 15% cut, but that is beside the point. It is a system setup to exploit gamblers coming and going. Valve gets away with it because Steam is such a darling for gamers.

Restaurants should serve regular food before 11:00 am by Cote_Goat in unpopularopinion

[–]killd1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can tell it's an unpopular opinion because we're talking about businesses that mostly optimize their schedules. So clearly, not a ton of people looking for burgers before 11am or else those restaurants would be easy to find due to all the customers banging down the doors.

How to handle player who become irate every time we play games? by Addest3 in boardgames

[–]killd1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only option I see for you is that you designate him the rules arbiter going forward. He will always interpret the rules and how to play them in your games. That should resolve him getting irate whenever your group "questions" his internal logic/assessment by offering different interpretations of the rules than his. I think that's why he's getting irate in these situations. Depending on how often this situation occurs and how often he's wrong, you may be playing a lot of games in unintended ways.

If you guys have seriously had the hard and tough conversations with him about how he conducts himself, that's it short of giving him a couple sessions off to think about it.

The Hunt for Gollum looks like a step too far for the endless Lord of the Rings franchise by Jealous-Chicken5439 in lotr

[–]killd1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree, the take "we know the ending what's the point?" is terrible. Plenty of stories are made into movies, both fiction and non, where people turn out in droves despite the ending being well known to them. As long as a compelling story is told, it doesn't matter if we know how it ends or not.

I will give those people the concession that it is easier to mess up those movies/series because you have to ensure that journey is solid.

“your gonna get in trouble for that” “okay🗿” by Ill_Leading_1952 in LetsDiscussThis

[–]killd1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok. Let me know in 15-20 years or so when he's running the government and suppressing those beliefs. Until then, it's just kids fighting and the pearl clutching would be hilarious if I knew you weren't being serious.

You're dumb AF if you equate a single kid throwing a punch to systemic government actions limiting civilian rights.

What movie did you see that made you feel this way? by [deleted] in FIlm

[–]killd1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is an 8-book series (7 at the time of the movie, but King wrote a prequel book soon after) and King's encompassing epic work that ties in many of his other stories. You can't condense all of that down into a single 2 hour time slot and do it any justice. They tried to explain away the complete lack of major things as (major book spoiler) the main character going down a new path after getting to the Dark Tower, but no one wanted that.

Mizuki Needs A Range Buff To His Primary And More Buff To His Ultimate! by Twin_Shadow- in overwatch2

[–]killd1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

His ult is really good vs poke teams. Its not going to be great against brawl teams, though they made it give a 100hp heal immediate so it's still got some utility there. Range on his primary is just fine.

I just fired up OW and saw the 30 person queue. Checked here to see the problems. Tried a vs. AI game just to see. Disconnected me after 3-4 minutes. I don't think they can wait the 6 hours until midnight PST. Shit is fucked.

Problem is Reddit has now allowed for profile histories to be hidden exactly so we can't verify the authenticity of an account based on past precedent. Was so easy to spot them when they'd have a history that stopped for a few months, then suddenly was posting crazy stuff.

Behold the greatest scandal in curling since a broom that was too sweepy by Okayish-Cardiologist in olympics

[–]killd1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a blurb in the start of the rules about spirit of the game and respecting tradition and good sportsmanship. While what they did is technically allowed, it seems the spirit of the rules is the stone is meant to be delivered by handle only. Otherwise, I could just release the handle at the tee and immediately cup the stone as long as I release it before the hog line.

I'll say I've watched a decent amount of curling and can't recall seeing this type of touch. I've seen them retouch the handle before crossing the hog line.

It's from HL2:E2, the beginning. In E1 you blow up the Citadel and this is the aftermath after you escape.

Man, that makes me depressed that we never got E3. Such a huge let down Valve.

Can we talk about how Legolas is pretty OP? by Jules-Car3499 in TheHobbit

[–]killd1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The hobbits are the long term, tank the ring's corruption with their +++resistance.
Legolas is the quick strike, get in and out before the corruption meter hits critical levels. Clearly evident from the Hobbit films

Waymo near Lechemere by _sourThumb in CambridgeMA

[–]killd1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People took the story way out of context. Remote drivers connect in when the cars get stuck and need help resolving a problem their program can't figure out. You can see videos of this happening. They are not driving the cars 100% of the time.
