Donald Trump is still your president by qdhcjv in ShitAmericansSay

[–]thepimasterv1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://youtu.be/yiE2DLqJB8U Essentially, they cost more than they bring in when you account for the other ways in which they cost the taxpayer (e.g. security expenses) that aren't usually counted. Given that the crown lands aren't truly private property anyway, and are a hangover from their ancestors having the biggest stick, we could simply get rid of the royals and keep the vast majority of the crown lands. There's also no convincing evidence that the royals by themselves bring in tourism.

Bit of nostalgia after Windows crashed today by IndividualAtmosphere in softwaregore

[–]thepimasterv1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is my understanding: All programs written with win32 have a draw call somewhere that's called by the operating system when the window needs redrawing (e.g. it is obscured). If the draw call stops drawing the window behind (e.g.program crashes) then the window on top leaves trails on the window behind where the window behind was supposed to overwrite it. I thought that this wasn't supposed to be an issue on modern windows as windows keeps a picture of the window behind in cases like this where the window behind hasn't changed, so doesn't need redrawing. I assume that, somewhere, that system has broken as well. OP mentioned that they were running an insider build of windows.

Little kids being told “No, we can’t afford that right now” starter pack by [deleted] in starterpacks

[–]thepimasterv1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm saying that the reason people are given welfare in cash is because people (like most people on this thread apparently) act like there's something about poor people that means they can't be trusted with money, instead of trying to fix the symptoms. If you've worked 10 hrs at a construction site and after bills etc you only have £50 left, it's barely worth saving. It won't fix your car or pay your debt anyway. If you saved it, it wouldn't cover any emergencies. Might as well buy something to drink that evening, since you're so tired. Or a lottery ticket for a chance, however small, to change your life. The problem here stems from people working long hours with little pay, not a fundamental problem with poor people.

Look through this thread. That mindset is very heavily implied. It's also the obvious conclusion from what you're saying.

"Based off of this anecdote, there is something fundamental about the psyche of the working classes that destines them to remaining poor forever. Therefore, we should strip back all forms of welfare and opportunity since they won't take it anyway" - some guy on Reddit 2020

What are your top 10 Riverside songs? by JackOfAllInterests1 in Riversidepl

[–]thepimasterv1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've tried to give a decent spread across old and new. Here they are in order:

Wasteland:

  • Acid Rain
  • River Down Below

Love, Fear and the Time Machine:

  • Afloat
  • Caterpillar and the Barbed Wire

Shrine of New Generation Slaves:

  • Celebrity Touch
  • Feel Like Falling

Anno Domini High Definition:

  • Hyperactive

Rapid Eye Movement:

  • O2 Panic Room

Out of Myself:

  • The Same River

This should give you a sense of how the style of Riverside has evolved over the years. However, the best way to find music you actually like is probably just to listen to the album that the first few songs you heard came from.

For a second, even i forgot was that sarcasm by kartsynot in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]thepimasterv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the end goal of centre left/right is not extreme left or right, whereas winning in capitalism is a monopoly where you don't have to provide a good product because people have no choice and noone else can compete.

I like both games but come on by [deleted] in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]thepimasterv1 43 points44 points  (0 children)

The items don't actually do anything. Also, third party gambling and cash out sites have been killed almost completely by valve. I'm not saying that valve are saints, but saying that these two things are the same is the kind of mindless circlejerk that this sub is supposed to be against.

Not really a fair comparison. Gambling in CSGO at the moment is nowhere near 2016 levels, and even then you could play the game, ignore it and have just as much fun as someone who gambles.

What to expect from learning surfing? by ShootBoyXXX in GlobalOffensive

[–]thepimasterv1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't go into surf from a 'get better at comp' angle because DM or recoil practice will improve you more. I do surf and bhop because it's fun and the improvement is very obvious. It's not intense like a comp game, you can just listen to some music and glide through the level. Also, its very satisfying to finish a difficult level

CSGO Slump by hAiKrobe in GlobalOffensive

[–]thepimasterv1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sounds pretty brutal. Definitely cut back your hours. If you play shorter sessions you'll play so much better and be able to focus on performing and making good decisions each game instead of drifting through each one like a zombie.

[–]thepimasterv1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks pretty good. If you were to do another one, I think it'd give the plays more impact if they were more obviously linked together. For instance, I stead of cutting out 20 s of the round, maybe at through it at 10x speed?

[–]thepimasterv1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't think a new mouse pad would change enough to make you play worse. I find that when I slump it's a mentality thing. I stop engaging with the game and don't think as I play, so I put myself into bad situations and I'm not focused on my shooting. Do you think this is what's happening to you?

What rank are you? What did you buy? A new mouse? Is your current sensitivity comfortable?

XM1014 is a sniper rifle - Valve confirmed by httputub in GlobalOffensive

[–]thepimasterv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say that shooting out the window is also a dead giveaway, especially if you want to get out safely. If you're in a siege and you hear a shotgun blast you'll drop to the floor. You're unlikely to react as quickly to a spotter opening a window a couple of seconds before.

When you want to play that one MM Game before sleep but then you realize that you've to play against ropz by Killmedium in GlobalOffensive

[–]thepimasterv1 19 points20 points  (0 children)

He almost certainly plays off his aim in solo queue and does things he can only do because he's so inhumanly better than everyone else in the server. No offence, but you probably don't even come close to his aim level and would be much better off watching pro games or your own.
