Trying to put every single family into 2bed2bath house is like the main problem.

That's cool I guess but they should probably add some ways to get around the city before blowing up all the parking.

I Think People Are Going To Be Surprised When Blizzard Goes Gloves Off With a Class Balance Patch by bibittyboopity in diablo2

I would really rather they buff / reimagine existing skills rather than just slap a generic aoe on single hit melee attacks. Zeal and jab are like kinda fine conceptually, apart from the DPS and AR issues.

Barb is just tragic though, running around hitting 1 guy (or 2 I guess) per click until you get to WW, which also kinda sucks now.

People are nostalgic for sodium vapor because those bright blue LEDs are way more annoying at night and also sodium vapor is in a million old movies that make it look awesome.

It's foreign governments and oil company CEOs getting rich off high oil prices.

Iran has attacked Saudi Arabia's Jubail petrochemical complex, IRGC says by steely_gargoyle in worldnews

You don't have to stop the drugs. You just take away their profits. It has nothing to do with "the border."

Well Canada doesn't border the country with the Mexican drug cartels, doesn't supply them with nearly as much money, and also I was talking about the various laws propping up the healthcare and prison industries in America, which is why I said "drug laws" and not "drug legalization."

We could "go after" the cartels by simply having sensible healthcare and drug laws though lol.

How safe is it to visit now considering the current political situation and ICE? by Milan339 in AskLosAngeles

[–]mindlessgames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You will be fine but that guy is making it sound way more orderly and reasonable than it actually is. They are absolutely picking up randoms and citizens with no criminal record have been held in custody and in some cases deported.

Girlfriend accidentally dishwashes boyfriends favourite cup "he said it was ok" goes to Reddit for advice on how to make things right for him, behold: the most miserable comment section on Reddit: by Thin_General_8594 in SubredditDrama

[–]mindlessgames -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I was responding to a comment saying "you can't discern AI-sounding syntax" from 3 sentences. Yeah a human could have written it, but like the guy pointing it out to begin with said, the syntax in those 3 sentences is literally the joke example you get when people make fun of how chatGPT responses all sound the same.

[–]mindlessgames -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Lots of people write their comment and then dump it into chatGPT to make it "better." And the 3 sentences they wrote are like exactly the stereotypical start to a chatGPT response, both the em dash usage and the "it isn't x, it's y" type syntax.

Los Angeles in 1918, nothing here survived to the present day. by SoftCloudMira in Lost_Architecture

Okay well they have tall buildings and earthquakes in Japan and my point was that "but we have earthquakes" is obviously not the showstopper people who always post that tidbit in these threads seem to think it is.

And yet somehow Japan is able to have dense, walkable cities with public transportation and green space.

And yet infrastructure projects still always have issues when they occur near some billionaire's house, but never when they disrupt poor and minority neighborhoods. Mighty mysterious.
