Really obnoxious that you have to have a cable subscription to watch it. 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
- Comment on PROOF: VALVE IS RIPPING EVERY PC GAMER OFF. 1 month ago:
The anticompetitive practice is, sell for the same price here or we won’t sell your game? They don’t want to be undercut, can’t blame them for that.
If they forced exclusivity deals, sure that is anti competitive. If they dictated prices, that would be anticompetitive. If they forced users to buy bundles to get certain games, if they forced a subscription to access games, if they gobbled up every other game seller and closed them down…
We have seen a lot of bullshit in corpo land. I’m not saying valve is perfect, or I love and trust them, but this is pretty weak in terms of objections. I’d rather deal with valve than Microsoft. Then again I was saying that about Google 15 years ago, now a lot less so.

In my head it was going to be a lecture about having the right tools for the job, and making the kids crack walnuts barehanded.
Then I see those kids are tied up… and home dude is looking way too comfortable finding just the right walnut. Some illegal shit is about to go down.
- Comment on "Am I Racist?" - Matt Walsh’s Latest Failure - Review and Breakdown 2 months ago:
I for one didn’t find him that entertaining or insightful. The whole white people do have culture and then pointing to German culture, demonstrates he doesn’t really understand the argument he is ostensibly defending. His analysis seemed to me be fairly superficial.
Also, to be clear, Matt Walsh is a piece of shit.

- Comment on The 10 Best Cult Classic Action Movies, Ranked 3 months ago:
100%. It’s been a while since I’ve seen it but the tree scene in the beginning shouted “Buckle the fuck up” and it delivered.
It’s quintessential cult classic. Came out of nowhere (I was not aware of a booming Thai film industry), and had a huge impact.

The raid absolutely, also Ong Bak fits into a cult classic action movie way better than most of these.

That would be amazing. It absolutely needs to get weird.

You mean Leto II? That’s not till the end of children.

- Comment on Laws of Robotics 5 months ago:
They actually took a bunch of elements of the short story collection and jammed them together. The worst is what they did to Susan Calvin…
Ignoring the butchery, it’s a pretty generic action movie. Very forgettable. Adding what they did to the source material makes it a straight tragedy.
- Comment on Laws of Robotics 5 months ago:
That is the plot of the Will Smith version of I, Robot.
If I remember correctly, it’s actually Daneel who comes up with the zeroth law. And it’s not to justify killing people.
- Comment on Laws of Robotics 5 months ago:
Only in the shitty movie. Not in the books.
- Comment on Laws of Robotics 5 months ago:
Also, a lot of the machine vision systems I’ve run up against use red light, but it is kind of complex. If they want to detect say blood, I think blue light would actually give better contrast for detection.
- Comment on what's a good way to stick a laser leveler to the wall? 6 months ago:
Unless of course you want to pull the paint off your wall.
Just use painters tape/masking tape. If you want to get fancy gaffer tape.

You are describing an inductor not a capacitor. They can be basic low pass filters but I don’t think they will work in this case.
- Comment on Gwyneth Paltrow Is Full of Regret While Eating Spicy Wings | Hot Ones 7 months ago:
I’m not a fan of Paltro, but… Really?
Do you honestly expect a YouTube channel that makes mid to moderately famous people eat spicy food to be a paragon of journalistic integrity? That’s just silly.
Also, yes she is parody of herself, but personally I reserve that level of vitriol for the Bezeoss and Rumsfelds of the world.
- Comment on Generation Kill Review: Complete Honesty About War 10 months ago:
The shitty hot take on suni vs shia was at least preempted by a disclaimer that he knew nothing about the subject (he didn’t). The structure of the… narrative? argument? readomly talking like he had something to say? was bad enough, when he started going off on COVID, it was really just the straw.
If that was you, sorry man. It was rough. I’d love to see some stats on the video cause I suspect I held out longer than most.

- Comment on What happened to the flat earthers who demonstrated that the earth is round in the netfilx documentary ? 1 year ago:
If ridicule keeps the percentage at 0.5% instead of growing to 1% its incredibly virtuous
That if is doing a lot of lifting. One of the points of the movie is that people and media was laughing off the flat earthers and they grew in strength to have a national movement.
