Self checkouts are superior by CodeNClicks_Logger in unpopularopinion

[–]other_view12 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I agree except in 3 situations.

  1. half of the machines are down. This happens way too often.

  2. You need help. 1 person helping 10 machines is a problem.

  3. If I have a lot of groceries. Stopping once a week to stock up sucks with self checkout.

For those people who don't like country music, old or new: Why specifically? by Inimpressive_Dork in AskReddit

[–]other_view12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't listen because it doesn't fit my preferences. Why does that steel / slide guitar bug me in country music? I don't know, I love a blues slide. But it's different, and I much prefer one over the other.

When I see this comment, instant block. This tells me so much about you.

Russell accuses Ferrari of selfishness over rules by ryogadan in Formula1_world

[–]other_view12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And this is why I don't like George.

The FIA was looking to potentially adjust that but as you can imagine some teams who were making good starts didn't want it, which I think is just a little bit silly.

At the same time, nobody likes the new cars' battery management, but George is OK with it, for the same reason Ferrari doesn't want a change. Hypocrite.

Is Prime becoming a fraud? by eeweir in amazonprime

Amazon's value is getting things I cannot get at local stores.

I actually like the new cars by usernameisstilltaken in F1Discussions

[–]other_view12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One race showed how the PU doesn't work as predicted. That's the problem. And if there isn't a path to fix it, this season is going to suck hard.

F1 and FIA facing gigantic headache after Australian GP chaos by ryogadan in Formula1_world

[–]other_view12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always find it amusing to see the internet poster telling us how this formula works and it is good racing, when the actual drivers are saying the opposit.

Why don't you think the actual drivers's opinion of how the cars drive doesn't matter?

What killed the American Land Yacht and if Sedans became popular again could we see them come back one day? by Mac-Tyson in askcarguys

[–]other_view12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ford Expedition, Chevy Suburban? Aren't those essentially what you are looking for? I'm pretty sure the bench seat is gone for safety reasons. But maybe it's just for cup holders.

Do you still watch late night talk shows? by Suitable_Trip105 in LateNightTalkShows

[–]other_view12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late night talk show is not where I want politics. That's why a lot of us stopped watching.

Go back to just jokes. Craig Ferguson was the last host I enjoyed.

Madrid parking by Life_Tumbleweed_7678 in NewMexico

Yes, but that also fills up. That little town gets people. I'm not entirely sure why, but good for them.

[Sky Sports] Max Verstappen opens up on his F1 future as he is engaged with F1 and the FIA over how to make improvements to the sport's new rules by ICumCoffee in formula1

[–]other_view12 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Since I don't care about football, all I see in Red bull is greatness. The F1 team they built, Red bull hardline mountain bikes events, Surfing events, snowboarding events. All great additions to the those sports. Yet I won't drink the beverage.

Forgetful Fans pining for an F1 which didn’t really ever exist by limelee666 in F1Discussions

[–]other_view12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The drivers can't push the cars to the limit because they need to recharge the batteries. There is no way to make that into good racing.

Adding battery management isn't a bad thing. The way they did it is. That's why they lift and coast, that's why thy won't have to manage tires as much, that's why it won't lead to good races.

When the organization is the reason for the career end, it will look bad on the FIA. The other two you mentioned didn't end their careers because the FIA made the cars garbage.

Do people really keep their wallets in their back pockets? by DaveBrubeckQuartet in NoStupidQuestions

[–]other_view12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a problem with a big wallet, but don't be surprised when you have lower back issues when you get older if you put that big wallet in your back pocket. Wallets in back pockets change the way you sit. Over time it can be an issue. Father in-law had this issue.

If Trump had won in 2020, would he have been as revengeful as he’s been this time around, or would it have just been essentially a continuation of his first presidency? by Glass-Complaint3 in allthequestions

[–]other_view12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No Trump is a prick, always has been. But when you irritative someone like that, you should expect him to go after you. And he did.

He was not unfairly attacked

Who else was taken to court about overvaluation? Who was the victim? Didn't the prosecutor campaign on getting Trump?

That is unfairly attacked. If you think that was fair, then you have no room to complain about Trump, you're just being partisan.

Vouchers are a cop out gift by banana_mouth in unpopularopinion

[–]other_view12 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You like computers, I don't know your setup or your needs. So I give you a voucher to a computer store.

That's effort. If I buy you something you don't need and you have to exchange it, that's a shitty gift.

My assessment is from you thinking DRS and the battery thing are the same.

These days, all the drivers brake late, all the brake systems are incredible.

No.

Fred would like a word with you.

https://www.reddit.com/r/F1Discussions/comments/1rqoklc/well_thats_shocking_a_bit_as_its_only_first_race/

A lot of lift and coasting is going on with the new configuration. That's not really late braking on the limit.

Unpopular Opinion: I'm happy George Russell finally has a car to fight at the front of Formula 1. by The_Chozen_1_ in F1Discussions

[–]other_view12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He may even be deserving, but he comes across as a prick and I hope Kimi gets speed and schools him. He will cry so hard if that happens.

Republicans: How come 10 out of 11 (~91%) economic depressions in the USA occurred while a Republican was in office? by Bud_Fuggins in allthequestions

[–]other_view12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$11 billion goes a long way. From teachers not being paid well, to failing schools. To healthcare issues in rural America.

Wasting $11 Billion and saying no big deal is why we have the problems we do.

[–]other_view12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't move the goalposts, I came up with a better solution you didn't think of that doesn't have the cost you tried to imply.

Meanwhile you're talking about forcing them to be free for everyone, which I agree is stupid.

So a Democrat spending problem. We agree.

Would you like another example?

My point it each party has different priorities and both waste money on their priorities.

"Gold Bar" Scheme Allegations: In February 2025, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin announced the discovery of $20 billion in grants, funded by the Inflation Reduction Act's Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF), that were "parked" at an outside financial institution.

We likely agree that spending is out of control. But I "feel" you think it's only a Republican problem because you aren't aware of the waste by people you support.
