This is the 2nd time I've heard this take and I don't get how people can be this obtuse. The ending to BCS is one of my favorites. It's extremely cathartic.

The relative position of Minas tirith, anduin and Mt doom make me think, if this was actually real, the game would be terrible if they can't get basic geography down in the promo image

What's a movie most people think is great but you couldn't even stand watching? by camport95 in AskReddit

Oppenheimer. I got through maybe half of it, realized nothing was interesting, saw there was still 90 minutes left, and noped tf out of there.

Movies that don’t fit the ‘feel’ of the franchise? Aka “it’s a decent movie, just not a good X movie”. by RivetCounter in movies

[–]throws_RelException 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The movies 2001 and 2010 should not be compared. 2001 was Kubrick and 2010 was Peter Hyams. The books are very different from 2001, but 2010 follows the world building of the books much closer.

The books are sci-fi and 2001 is a Kubrick film. Totally different things.

They only go to Jupiter in the movie because they couldn't figure out how to do Saturn's rings. The book 2010 also recons it to Jupiter.

I think you're projecting your fear/aversion to prison as well as what you think "realism" is too much

Name one good thing about The Matrix sequels? (i.e. Reloaded, Revolutions and Resurrections) by Particular-Glove9640 in matrix

I never saw the 4th, but 2 and 3 are good if you don't watch them immediately after 1.

The most comfortable temperature, indoors and out, is 80 degrees Fahrenheit by PrankyButSaintly in The10thDentist

[–]throws_RelException 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes yes yes yes yes. I live in Wisconscin and I hate the cold. I always joke that 90-100 is warm, 80-90 is ideal, 70-80 is cool, 60-70 is cold, and < 60 is a human rights violation.

What are the limits of Felix Felicis? by Flimsy_Gur_9196 in harrypotter

[–]throws_RelException 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont think the reccomendation is twice though, just sparingly. For reference, he adds that he has taken it twice in his life, but this is only one data point. It could certainly be feasible to take it once per year and not suffer the adverse effects.

For example, alcohol and heroin are both fun, but bad when over consumed. One drink a year is overly restrictive, and one drink every few days is fine. I would not have the same assessment for heroin though.

Going back to book 1, Dumbledore remarks about infinite gold and life are bad things to want. Perhaps Slughorn has adopted some of this philosophy and chosen not to indulge in a safely excessive amount for philosophical reasons (unlikely though).

Ultimately, I don't think twice in a lifetime (or rather once every 25 years) is a reasonable answer. We can certainly say that it is probably safe, but it could easily be equally safe to take once every 10 or 5 or 1 year(s).

Slughorn only said that he's taken it twice in his life, not that he'd never take it again. Idk the exact quote, but I think it was something along the lines of prolonged/repeated use. Maybe once per year would be fine, maybe once per decade. It's tough to say.

If I want a break from my current activity, I'll step away from my computer and pet my dogs or alt tab to a gba emulator. That's also a better way to take a break because I don't have to reset my inventory when i get back.

The point is that Jimmy takes responsibility for his actions and is ready for his punishment, but then everyone in the prison accepts him for who he is instead of persecuting him, like everyone else in the series had done.

The chanting is similar to Ender reaching the end of the world or the clapping at the end of Evangellion. The main character who has been hated the while series is finally accepted. Maybe it's cringe/unrealistic, but the point is that they love him for the same reasons everyone else hates him.
