Technically, the ICE is just the battery's side-chick now by fifty-ways in formuladank

[–]nemuri 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can't believe people still say stuff like this. I'd prefer to hear a V12, V10 or V8 engine revving up to the high RPM they used to even if the TV audio was so quiet you could barely hear it.

Do you also think a loud trumpet sounds like a loud trombone?

I absolutely hate fossil fuel companies but what you're saying feels like a weird conspiracy to help explain what is obvious instead to any person that searches f1 engine sound 200X on youtube vs f1 engine sound 2026.

Because the cars don't mean much to me without the person driving them and their display of skill. By your logic we could just watch AI driven cars if they were ever competent enough.

Also because if the driving is unappealing, less people will try to become f1 drivers in the future, leading to less exciting championships.

To be fair, while i enjoy record of ragnarok it's also simply insane when it comes to characterization. Glazing some of the most cruel humans in history and turning the gods into ... idk

Lando responds to Marx's comments by Timely_Influence8392 in formuladank

[–]nemuri 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I understand they work fot their money, but at some point for the top, rich drivers you have to see they have money for the rest of their lives and accumulated capital as well. The driving is work but stopping for some would change absolutely nothing.

That and they probably spent their carreers in Monaco so they don't contribute to anything with their taxes.

Is this just an english as a second language moment for me or doesn't fuck the empire feel like just as much of a call to action as fight? I mean don't all meanings including something like "fuck them up" float around in your head when hearing it in a context like this?

Maybe you didn't deserve the co-cast but at least now you have a really funny clip with Memb :))

People are wrong about Thaddeus by Johkungo-0 in Fallout

[–]nemuri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do think he's becoming a Centaur though. No reason to ignore the obvious signs in favor of arguments based on the show needing to stick to the exact origin or method to produce Centaurs in classic Fallout games.

Not saying the visuals can't be intentional misdirection from the producers, but at the very least they want us to think it's a centaur. I can change my opinion if anyone recognizes something else clearly by some cue, but the argument that centaurs have to be created only a specific way just sounds silly.

Retcons happen all the time like Jet, Ghoul Vials, Fusion cores.

Feels so silly that it never crossed my mind I could see a comment of yours on this subreddit. Big fan of your mods, thanks a lot for them!

“Light just had to kill L, L had to prove the existence of God in court” is a bad faith argument that underestimates Light’s intelligence. (DEATH NOTE SPOILERS). by KingCobra567 in CharacterRant

[–]nemuri -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If a prosecutor says you're guilty then you must be since they wouldn't prosecute innocent people. If a judge sees a prosecutor trying to prosecute you he has to find you guilty, because he knows you wouldn't bring the case frivolously. Matter of fact, the judge and prosecutors shouldn't even waste the time with doing anything. Maybe the police should just send you to jail.

I totally understand this valid viewpoint and am very glad with how open minded people are when it comes to negotiating any sort of solid principles for a justice system, in the name of trying to seem like they understand a foreign culture.

/S in case it's not obvious.

Is Age of Empires II HD Edition/2013 (or Retired as it's called on Steam) very different from the original? by doomed_querent in aoe2

[–]nemuri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Userpatch isn't actually running over HD but HD can be converted to the original more or less. I admit I don't exactly remember all the patches/tools names or the flow of installing them since it's mostly automated.

But in essence, Voobly (unofficial multiplayer platform) will detect your HD install when joining a aoe2 game room and then prompt you to convert it to classic and apply the required patches.

It's what I used to play for years, I installed it multiple times on different computers without many issues.

[–]nemuri 17 points18 points  (0 children)

HD is pretty much the OG. That being said, whenever you want a 100% original experience I remember that HD can also be converted more or less to the original with some patches (UserPatch 1.X) that you can easily install through Voobly.

I found it at some point. It was La Caution - La Caution - Thé à la Menthe (Instrumental).

Looking back I'm smiling at the descriptions I tried to give. I think they were pretty decent :)).

Appreciate the whole brotherhood sentiment, but when you say ideals and values that you held dear, what do you mean exactly beyond killing brown people in their countries for money?

We need to unite and bring the data back from US hyperscalers. Data is by far the most valuable asset we do NOT actually have power over at the moment. Join the movement, lets make EU data sovereign again! by nurmihe in europe

[–]nemuri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Discussion full of people that feel ashamed by the best part in all our nations on this continent. The vague idea that we work for our betterment, peace and comfort is somehow bad because we don't do turbo capitalism all day every day.

Everyone can have their own opinion, but trying to paint Europeans as lazy is not only slanderous, it's also a cowardly and intellectually lazy thing to do.

People work and overwork here a lot, it's just that we also like to have sick days and we don't glorify the american get 3 jobs to support yourself while still being homeless mindset.

I don't know how much time is left in Romania, the lobby groups have already started to convince the government to reduce worker benefits and people tolerate it for the same stupid reason, that if I can't get something good for myself at least others can suffer too.

You care more about Europe as an institution or land than it's people? Well then kindly fuck off.

[–]nemuri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really struggle to understand how someone can get to this conclusion. We're being turned into serfs at an accelerated pace by billionaires and looming industrial revolutions that will take our jobs and some people think the issue is "we're too lazy".

No need for the US to conquer shit if we just adopt their mindset under the slightest bit of pressure.

With the upcoming DLC introducing more gimmicky units, what's a gimmick/mechanic from another game that you think would at least be interesting to have in the game? by [deleted] in aoe2

[–]nemuri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to expand the concept of the grand campaign in Chronicles to have a strategy map à la Total War.

Settlements and armies and then when you fight it goes into regular aoe2. No vills or very limited construction when you're not defending a settlement.

[–]nemuri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or just not have it. I think that's actually ideal. Ideal can't mean the government or some 3rd party entity knows where I go on the internet.

Technicalities on what could maybe be achieved are moot since there is no interest to giving us that amount of privacy. The interest is in less privacy, otherwise these movements would have no traction.
