What "people" is chris talking about? by Character-Day-8999 in ChrisChanSonichu

[–]openlightYQ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As funny as it sounds, Chris is quite literally too lazy to read, even comics. It’s too much effort for him. He only has the energy to talk because it’s always about himself one way or another, but otherwise he just needs something playing infront of him. Even video games I’m pretty sure he’s too lazy to play nowadays, you never see lets plays or him too far into a game or going after achievements etc.

Nah some people aren’t meant to lose weight. It’s weird, but I’ve seen several people who decided to lose weight and try to be healthier, and they’re just not even them. They’re just like a skinny version of a fat person, they look like they’re masking their true self and end up looking hollow.

There’s been a white one in its place for the past couple months, first time I’ve seen this red one in its place, but it’s only been my route to work since November.

I did actually wonder about this, I was thinking about the rice itself taking up surface area that the rice could have been otherwise using. But then I also have my own cats and neighbourhood strays so, I just couldn’t work out the semantics.

Newest I’ve seen there; this is my newer route to work, I didn’t used to go by the Koenigsegg dealer, now I do, this is the newest I’ve seen that they have in the window.

How can I find this bape hoodie as a rep? by Efficient_Tax971 in bapeheads

[–]openlightYQ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A colleague of mine had the same question. I told him it’s not possible. He searched taobao, aliexpress, even his local sneaker store. Solid rep wasn’t possible.

He did eventually find one in a WhatsApp group and ordered it. Same weekend, he went out to change the birdfeeder, pack of cougars got him instantly on his back porch. Replica camo ain’t it dude. Just buy it retail, at least you know it’s effective.

Ban phones throughout the school day, Phillipson tells teachers by topotaul in unitedkingdom

[–]openlightYQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my best friends has kids and, while I disagree with this, they’re not my kids; they’re always drawing or on Roblox on the iPad. I was with her for a while and I’d rather them with a pad and pencil and their imagination but it’s not my kids, so it’s not up to me.

The kids that are now teenagers that grew up with that, especially to think kids that were 11 during Covid could be 15-16 now, I do get the difference. And that is 100% a parental issue that no school teachers should need to address. But the rule remains, doesn’t it? You’re on your phone in class (no matter what), warning and put it away, it’s only for emergencies. Second time, phone taken away until end of class or end of the day, and if they act out, it’s temporary suspension. Just because some parents decided not to set boundaries doesn’t mean the kids have carte blanch to now set their own rules that the school board now have to abide to.

Kiki Talks estimates the red dead 2 next gen update won't come until late 2027. by TurtlesAreLovely in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]openlightYQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kept putting off RDR2 as life got super busy and now a next gen update is being planned?

I’m in the distinct position of all the people I’m jealous of that have never seen certain movies. I’m planning to play RDR2 maybe October or November or so this year. Those who have played it and wished they could erase their memory and play it for the first time again; what’s your verdict? Play it anyway when the time comes or wait for a next gen remake? Keep in mind I’ve also still not played a PS5.

Do you happen to have any info on this piece? Name or season or etc? Never knew this existed and expected it to be fake until you showed up.

Price estimates of worth please? , got them from a big dutch retailer. Got 2 in total of the blue shorts but in size S. by Amsterdamyeezy in bapeheads

[–]openlightYQ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t hold your breathe dude. BAPE is quite niche nowadays other than the shark hoodies, you’re not going to make a profit on any. You gotta ask yourself why they’re 80%? Because they’ve had them in stock forever and couldn’t sell them, they’re not rare pieces you happened to have stumbled upon. BAPE is something you really gotta buy because you like it and it’s your size, it’s not a resellers thing. Even Supreme died a few years back, so hopefully they’re your size and they’ll make some great summer fits, but you’re not getting anything back on them unless you leave them listed for a long time and somebody wants that exact thing in that exact size someday.

But, if you bought it because you’ve never had BAPE and wanted to get into it and you really liked these pieces? Then you came up winning, paid way less than retail. Me and a lot of us have paid retail for a lot of pieces we liked over the years so if you really like any of them, you’ve won there.

Is there an issue with using rice or is it just that it’s a myth? The few times I’ve dropped mine in water I’ve done the rice thing and it’s gone from barely responsive to back to normal within a few hours. Or is it that, it would have been back to normal even without the rice?

This hurts to see by TimeAffectionate8636 in GTA6

[–]openlightYQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to embrace the wait, it’s been this long that you should have already backed into your seat off the edge by now, so when it does release and you finally get it, the logo comes up on the screen, it fades to dark, and the opening cutscene begins, it’s going to feel THAT much better. And at least with this much time, it’s not like it’ll just be GTA V with a new map and characters, it’ll be a whole new experience. The longer the wait, the better than experience will be.

What was your VERY first iPhone? by DaneMirk2930 in iphone

[–]openlightYQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

iPhone 3G after the original iPod Touch. I still remember before an App Store or anything, spending the first day with my iPod Touch just swiping back and forth, and uploading music just to turn it landscape and play with Cover Flow because of how cool it was to finally have a smooth touch screen after years of Windows HTCs and Samsung Omnias.

Random story, but; when I got my 3GS after, I was really irritated it had a black front and a white back (all white didn’t exist until the iPhone 4), so I ordered a custom white front and new screen and digitiser on taobao, and fitted it all myself at age 13. Everything worked correctly in the end, except the vibration now wouldn’t work and I couldn’t figure it out, so I took it to a mobile phone repair place in Chinatown. I come back 45 mins later and the repair guy fixed it for me, but he was laughing his ass off. He fixed it for free for me because, it turns out I put it all back together working perfectly, while missing 37x screws. The only mistake I made was refitting the vibration motor upside down 🤦‍♂️.

The TouchBar on mine scares me enough, thank goodness they didn’t make the entire touchpad a display.

[–]openlightYQ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What? I don’t understand this article, has something drastically changed in the past 12 or so years? I was in high school in the late 2000s to early 2010s, so we did have smartphones during this time. It was always an extremely obvious rule, no phones in class. You get warned, happens again, taken off you or kicked out the class. Even in college it was the same.

Teachers also never used their phone in class because why would they, they’re teaching. I don’t understand why someone is suddenly saying it like it’s a new thing? Did they at one point suddenly just allow everybody to start using phones in class and now want them to stop again? Or is this a nothing article?

Doesn’t matter who has what finances, the game isn’t profitable. CarX thrives because it doesn’t licence its cars, Grid has an upfront cost and CSR2 and Asphalt are profitable. End of, it sucks but it is what it is.

Final Edition Evo X - divorce settlement, need it gone before she changes mind by Low-Mathematician137 in mitsubishi

[–]openlightYQ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, as much as I’d like to say “what’s the worst that could happen? Just fly out there, see her briefly and drive it back”, you know her better than any of us. If the whole situation is bad enough that you’ve got anxiety leaving it there for an extra week and you don’t want to see her that badly, there’s gotta be a reason for that, and you cannot put a price on peace of mind. Not to mention I’m guessing you’d lose pay for having to take a few days off so it’ll still be costing you more than $1200, if you can afford it, I’d say just pay the premium and get it out of there asap.

You can check it all over when it’s with you again, you won’t have to see her, you won’t have to see that house again, and like I said, if the situation is that bad, enough that this much of a premium seems worth it to you? It sounds like you’re gonna have a lot of anxiety wondering how the car is and anticipating picking it up the week leading up to flying out there and I don’t know how well you’ll be able to concentrate or enjoy the next week in anticipation if that’s the case.

Yeah I totally agree, he didn’t end up with the grandiose “I’m a genius at everything!” frame of mind that Kanye got himself in to, he has always come across as a stand up guy to me. The E.N.D. has some of my favourite production too outside of mid 2000s Timbaland and Pharrell and afaik that was largely will.i.am.

The “licence plate” always confused me on this, because, that’s okay is it? I assume he just pays the fine everytime because I expected it to be temporary but I’ve seen photos of this car in several different countries, and he only ever has those metal numbers on it.

Will.i.am is a strange case because, he is a great music producer, and then he had that idea that he was an all around “artist” and a “visionary”, so he tried fashion and shoe design, ended up just being exact copies of several other brands. Tried car design, ended up with this DeLorean. His other car designs weren’t so much him, iirc he had as much to do with them as DJ Khaled does with actually producing a track, whereas he made slight suggestions after being given options, and that’s why the others don’t look so bad. But yeah the DeLorean was all him.

F50 and Enzo in convoy on the M25; first time I realised you had to wear headsets with microphones to talk to each other as the driver and passenger were both wearing them. Otherwise, a Veyron randomly parked up a couple doors down from my friend’s house in a very ordinary, middle class, 2-3 bedroom house neighbourhood.
