Manager Hoyden posted:I don't "get" online community at all. I've found, universally, that people with this take are insufferable to be around and people with the opposite take (who recognize that people online are just humans who are also using a computer) are chill people that are fun to be around.

Manager Hoyden posted:I don't "get" online community at all. It's weird, because years ago (before social media really took off) I was all about meeting people online, getting to know them, forming friendships, etc. Even met Mr. Fartsy almost 20 years ago here on these dead forums. But now everyone is online, every friend and relative I've ever known in person, and I don't meet any new people online ever--I don't even try, and I agree it feels baffling now. I'm sure a lot of that is just my age and realizing most people suck and it's exhausting to vet them on or off the internet, and if you do make an actual friend well that's one more relationship you have to nurture or else it just withers and dies and who has the time

A short WW1 that France loses also makes a communist revolution in France instead of Russia more likely. Communist France would be in a much better position than Communist Russia was, since it had a fully developed capitalist production mode like Marx said was necessary. Basically, Belgium is responsible for untold human misery and death.

My brother always made me play Belgium in that super nintendo "super soccer" game where they were easily the worst team in all categories in the game. He'd get to pick germany (#1) or argentina (#2) if I started getting whiny about it and I never won a game. Thanks, Belgium.

If you wanna sell Karli Morgenthau as sympathetic she needs to have some kind coherent idea or ideology. Does she want Thanos to come back for an another snap? Karli Morgenthau is sympathetic because she has no idea who Thanos even was. She wants communism, equality, and justice, and she's right. Regardless of how she arrived at that conclusion.

You get a picture in GIS and click on it, and then... things happen and it's not the picture you get it's... 70s kitchens and Soviet Union and nothing you click on gives you the thing you click on, except when it does. Is Pinterest hell?

I still can't believe Google killed the discussion search tool. It was the best way to find real recommendations from enthusiasts instead of pages of useless content mill noise. Also you used to be able to exclude sites from your google searches in the settings, but they killed that too. Man google sucks

The only thing google cares about is showing you ads. If those ads happen to be on pages related to what you searched for then that is entirely coincidental.

His biggest sin is Jay's Garage being boring. I would love to just to walk around his garage and have him tell me little bits about all of the awesome cars he has, but for some reason Jay's Garage is the most boring show despite having all the coolest/most unique cars.

That's because Jay Leno has the charisma of a bar mop. Not even the coolest cars on Earth can save that.

Oh god this. He tells the same lame jokes over and over, completely glosses over any kind of interesting technical information, and any time he has to speak to someone else you can literally see his eyes glaze over and he just stands there going "uh-huh, yeah, hmmmm, uh-huh..." while he's waiting for it to be his turn to speak again.

Gaius Baltar did nothing wrong. Selling out his race for Caprica Six tail was 100% justified; the humans were clearly an inferior race that deserved its fate. The cylons should have finished them on New Caprica. Plus, there's evidence later on that human aggression started the war.
