English can certainly be difficult! It can understood through tough thorough thought though throughout the learning process.

Smh, more automated shit to break and be less for people to pay attention to and control…
- Comment on Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars? 1 day ago:
Hell I’d take Xenon lights over LED. Xenon have a more defined line at the edge of the beam whereas LED is more dispersed or scattered, so it’s more blinding.
Wouldn’t be so bad but some idiots can’t figure out how to aim their newly lifted truck’s lights downward and instead install a bunch of LED light bars to light up half the neighborhood!
- Comment on Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars? 1 day ago:
This probably sounds stupid, but I have a simple solution.
Headlights are aimed straight out in front of the driver-which unfortunately is also the oncoming driver’s line of sight. Why not cross their aim of lights so driver aims towards passenger and vice versa.
This takes the drivers light which is directly blinding and aims away, then the passenger light is also slightly aimed more away. Still illuminates the whole front of the road and car, maybe better peripheral even. The only negative is right as they pass each other, the passenger light his the oncoming car, BUT should be way shorter exposure and more indirect so less blinding…
Idk, just my $.02

Dude fuck this platform! It’s insanely addicting and they’re full of shit to say it’s not designed that way! My own kids have issues with this and I have noticed my daughter gets upset if she can’t play or her play gets interrupted. It’s absolutely like an addict, feigning. My wife is starting to agree it’s not healthy nor safe like they claim!
- Comment on Xbox Player Voice Quickly Reveals What Players Want Most 1 week ago:
Consoles are typically loss leaders. They make money on the games, accessories, etc. If Microsoft dropped exclusives, it means more money making games with less money losing consoles… It’s purely a business profitability move, not a gamer move.
Sony probably realized people would much prefer Steam and PC overPS and saw a drop in console sales which hurt game sales. So they’re back tracking to exclusives to being back money.
See Microsoft is software where Sony is hardware. That’s why Xbox is dying. Like Sega. Just focused on software and IPs…

- Comment on How is RAM size measured? Why doesn't it match the marketed size? 2 weeks ago:
OK, you might go into the BIOS and check to see if you have a hardware reserve for internal graphics. Sometimes it’ll default to something small like 64MB, by you can configure it up to 2048MB on some Intel motherboards iirc, maybe AMD is higher because it’s an “APU” which will reserve some in the same way.

The public cares, but are mostly powerless because it’s extremely difficult to coordinate efforts across so many states and distance.
- Comment on Xbox Game Pass is getting a price reduction. 5 weeks ago:
Amen! Greedy bastards! Maybe think about how insulting it is to try and squeeze even more out of your loyal customers in financially stressful times. Disconnected. A price drop would need to revert to 2018 when it was $15/mo. We don’t need all those mediocre games in Game pass. We can’t even install all of them with the measly 1TB storage!!
- Comment on Let's discuss ideas how Game Pass should be structured and priced 5 weeks ago:
How about just bring back online MP for $5/mo at 12mo purchase of $60. I stupidly joined in the GP tiers and watched it skyrocket from $10 to $30 and when my grandfathered price tier ended at $20, I canceled everything. Just shy of 20 years on Xbox down the drain! At one point MS had a bundle of everything that was $20/mo and that was Gold, Office, Skype minutes,1TB SkyDrive (before rebrand), it was decent.
Now they went from getting an annual $240 GP, $150 Office, and me still buying a bunch of games to now ditching the ecosystem until further notice. Greedy bastards!

Salesmen at a local car dealership would super glue quarters to the parking lot. The porters and/or customers would always try to pick them up, and it brought us so much joy to watch.

My other biggest gripe: what happens to business computer users at the office? What about their admins? How much extra work is this going to create???
