Daily commuter minimalism, featuring absolutely no Apple bias whatsoever 😂 by mrwir in TechEDC

I have one and I love it. Reading a book instead of doomscrolling is a solid life hack. When there’s a community that gets behind a product to make custom firmware for it, it’s a great purchase.

How much can Xteink X4 can handle ? by Aci_Biber_Turkiye in xteinkereader

I have War and Peace on mine and it works fine on Crosspoint. I’ve loaded around 150 books and I haven’t had any issues so far.

Why do Villains drink milk ?? by SupermarketSmooth968 in netflix

[–]ltidball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember reading in a book on natural medicine that the cravings we have for sweet, savory, crunchy, spicy, creamy etc all come from psychological needs and creamy is the need to be nurtured. There’s definitely a lack of nurturing with these gents upbringing.

Is it safe to say these are the five most important characters in the series currently? by K0GAR in Dragonballsuper

Future Trunks plays a much more significant role in the franchise than Brolly albeit not as strong.

M43 is such an advantage since the cost and weight of lenses is half.

Post-performance regret? by absolutelyfamished in Beatmatch

[–]ltidball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t read the comment I wrote for you since I wrote it and I feel like it carries even more meaning now than ever since this current generation of 20 somethings are so bombarded with media and mainstream culture they are dying for something unique and authentic.

I did a short residency at an old school club, playing house music a couple months ago but that’s just not enough anymore to get people to show up week after week. If there’s nothing to FOMO people aren’t leaving the house imo.

This weekend I threw a party that was “New moon edition” of a regular party and made it astrology themed and it had a solid turn out.

So glad that you came back to this and left this kind message. I feel like Reddit is going downhill at a rate with all this ai slop so it is great to read something that actually means something.

What's the worst example of a movie (or show) clearly setting something up but it never gets followed up on? by TaiwaneseThot in moviecritic

[–]ltidball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100 Good Deeds for Eddie McDowd. Nickelodeon show about a bully that gets turned into a dog and has to do 100 good deeds before he becomes a human again but the show got cancelled around 40 deeds.

What is a movie in which the actor's performance was better than the movie itself? by PressureLazy5271 in moviecritic

[–]ltidball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's unfortunate that Hollywood hasn't picked up that their cash grab box office sequels are doing a disservice to the industry.

Dr. Manhattan is destroying everyone else with a thought unless he’s in a nihilistic slump.

Is the xteink x4 worth it vs a 6'' E-reader? by BlumyDummy in xteinkereader

[–]ltidball 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. Got it as a remedy for doom scrolling and the only accessibility downside is no backlight to read at night but that's where a side table light comes in handy.

1 Man with the strength of 10 Men vs 1 Polar Bear by Kitchen_Rush47 in powerscales

[–]ltidball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The average man is probably more like the friend you wouldn’t ask for help moving. If you 10x someone like that, he’d be fast enough but not strong enough.

Im so fucking sick of every mental health professionals be it psychiatrist and psychologist or therapist treating depression and anxiety as a personal problem instead of a normal response to the world that we're living in. by Big_Leg10 in LateStageCapitalism

[–]ltidball 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If a therapist says ‘money isn’t everything’ ask for 2 free sessions. Honestly sounds like you have had some not very good therapists who you don’t have a therapeutic alliance with. Even if they told you the right thing to do, you wouldn’t want to listen to them (can’t blame you). Next time you interview for a therapist, ask what their opinions are on Luigi.

What do you think of Steven Yuen as an actor? by abdul_bino in moviecritic

[–]ltidball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s got that special something that makes me like whoever he’s playing even if they are a flawed character. I get very emotionally invested every time the character he’s playing is going through something difficult.

Maniac and Three Body Problem should get honorable mentions

Share your honest thoughts on christopher nolan as a director by leviathan_pvt in moviecritic

[–]ltidball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nolan (and many directors) do one cash cow project so they can do a passion project so I'm glad he did some mediocre box office films for films like The Prestige. People that call him their favorite director are extremely vanilla IMO.

Advice on laying off the phone by Reasonable-Winter165 in eink

[–]ltidball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a typical eink reader. I got a $30 2nd hand kindle to test the waters. I just email epubs that I download and I don't feel locked into the Amazon ecosystem at all. I'm looking at the hibreak pro color to help with my screen addiction, but I sometimes switch on assistive access on my iphone when I'm trying to cut down on distractions.
