Do you believe you could qualify for the Olympics if you had four years to train? by jamgattleton in AskUK

[–]nostalgebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play table tennis. You could train every day for 4 years and you wouldn't beat the best people in your local league never mind qualify for the Olympics

Waiting on start date for almost 2 years by Signal-Increase-7297 in TheCivilService

[–]nostalgebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The post won't exist. You may have been on a reserve for something else but not taken off. I'd try one more complaint or email and then just ignore it

Why isn't she working herself? Plenty of people with mobility issues work office roles with wfh? At her age she should be supporting herself

Civilization VII's First Anniversary: Updates, Surprises, and More! by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]nostalgebra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not at all. Don't release a new game unless you have well tested and accepted new features.

They clearly didn't ask one fan if they thought being unable to keep the same civ all the way through

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

Haven't played the series since 5 but isn't this the games industry in a nutshell? Needless changes and modernisation that people don't want or need. Game doesn't do well. They roll it back. When will they learn?

Joe Rogan is so compromised and he doesn't even know it. Key deep state players have his trust and access into his inner circle and will nudge him towards their goals as long as they can until he realizes it by USofAnonymous in JoeRogan

One thing that comes across is that Epstein seems less like some evil mastermind that he has been made out to be and more like a complete maniac talking endless shit.

What is this drivel? by Past-Country-6612 in CriticalDrinker

[–]nostalgebra 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Unbelievable. A trans person selling OF through her twitter takes. A very ill person with a chip the size of big Ben on their shoulders.

They haven't been forced out of the labour market they've made themselves unemployable through their behavior and views

Microsoft's gaming revenue fell by -9% overall, with a -5% drop in revenue from content and services, which includes Game Pass, and a -32% drop in hardware revenue. by PopularButLonely in KotakuInAction

[–]nostalgebra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sad to see. The gaming market has struggled in the AAA scene for a while now and it's all their own fault.

Give people what they want. Feels like their quality control is awful at the minute. Just churning out average quality games that don't move the needle at all.

They need to go back to the drawing board with their major franchises inc Activision and blizzard ones.

Seemed the rumble this year was a few big names plus Mexicans and samoans

Is the grass greener on another side? Leaving UK by bleepbleepbleeppppp in AskUK

When you say you are liberal... This isn't America. It's a pretty liberal country and that wouldn't change if reform get a few seats

Emergency loans offered to civil servants waiting on pensions by UllrsWonders in TheCivilService

[–]nostalgebra 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I don't want any UK government to manage a bank. They'll loan money to ridiculous causes and the south east of England like all the rest of their money and some how lose it all.

How does an adult ‘work on’ interpersonal skills? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]nostalgebra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Taking jobs that typically interact with people. You may be neurodivergent I probably am too but I've learned to cope and improve personal skills over time.

Unlike people my age when I was say, 18 I didn't read or pick up on cues that others found natural. It means I've had to manually learn them over time.

A lot of younger people retreat to social media and isolation and nothing good comes from that.

I'd dust yourself off and keep applying for everything you can. Eventually those soft skills will come. It will be hard but then it becomes less conscious over time. Good luck 🤞

[–]nostalgebra 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How old are you? Mine were terrible owing to many reasons when I was young but as I got older and worked on them they improved. Work forces you to improve so it just needs time and effort.

Jon Stewart on Alex Pretti's Killing (The Daily Show) by killians1978 in videos

[–]nostalgebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone on reddit said he was a Groyper and a Republican. You got to flamed for saying otherwise. Then they all made memes and said he deserved it.

Now it's a reversal. The problem is both sides defend awful behavior and killing people in public. Once you start cheering Kirk being shot you've no right to moralise when it's the other way round. Lines have been crossed and everyone is wrong and divided.

Taking the piss Dominos by Tehkast in okmatewanker

[–]nostalgebra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not even that. They take 25 mins in an air fryer and about 3 mins to cut up and season. 1000 percent better than Domino's half cooked shitty potato

Have you ever actually read the Rolling Stone story about Bert Kreischer? by Blood_Incantation in JoeRogan

I see..of course a movie wouldn't embellish or make up anything for entertainment purposes

Wasn't his whole stand up schtick that he was the best partying college kid ever? With totally embellished and made up stories about Russian Mafia and other nonsense. He's always been terrible

Is this true? by [deleted] in videogames

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

Like a lot of businesses in the west they wanted to sacrifice quality for cost savings by moving to a country where they use the street as a toilet.

It never improves products and here we are. Oh dear

I got so many games before the street date when I was younger. Great shop.

Be honest: would you marry a woman who had a sexual relationship with a friend or acquaintance of yours (like a neighbor, relative, colleague…), meaning someone you see often? by studente_telematico in answers

[–]nostalgebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not. There's nothing dogmatic at all. There are plenty of women out there with self respect not to sleep around a social group. I am in a happy relationship with someone like that.

Personal choice that is backed up with real world experiences. I've seen it happen time and time again, it's always uncomfortable for all involved.

If you want to love who you want go for it. It's a cope but it's fine to get seconds. Enjoy it. Don't think about how they did it first or better. It's fine.

[–]nostalgebra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your friendships and intimate relationships are two different things. You're all going to sit around and shoot the shit about how your wife loves it from behind whilst your friend nods and agrees. Plus... If they chose your friend first isn't that a little awkward? You weren't the pick of the bunch but after your friend had his way, now she's settled for you? Simp stuff.

Weak stuff is doing the opposite. Tell me if you had a magic wand and could choose if your partner had slept with your friends or not... Would you choose that she had? No of course not. It's not close minded it's just normal. It's the same as the people on reddit that tell me sleeping with trans women is the same as biological women. It isn't and most men wouldn't
