3,200 | stop the fucking train, a knew Opeth album???? why haven't i read anything about this! do you happen to have a release date? | September 30th. Same day as the new Bon Iver too. |
3,201 | And I can't get even 2 people to jam with. | I wonder how late all those drummers were. . . edit: showing up. Not dragging. |
3,202 | I actually prefer Om, they're one of music's best kept secrets | Same here. I could listen to At Giza all day long. |
3,203 | SSD drives are normally thinner than regular hard disks right? Why not just make them the same size. | They used to. They were 3.5" drives size (desktop size), then somewhere along the line they makes them all 2.5" drives (laptop size). I am not quite sure why they didn't keep making some 3.5" size ones with larger capacity, even if it was 2x 2.5" drives double stacked. |
3,204 | Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon. "Speak to Me" | ...I think you mean Speak to Me / Breathe. Without Breathe, it's barely a song, just a buildup to one. |
3,205 | John Reader's *Africa* recommends that as a pivotal work on African history, but I haven't been able to find it in any bookstores here. It's only just occurred to me that it might have been retitled, and indeed, Meredith has a book called *The **Fate** of Africa*. Any idea if it's the same book? | I can't be 100% sure but based on the synopsis on Amazon.com I would say yes. |
3,206 | Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. [Wikipedia on the sound design] | First movie that I watched on my home theater. Simply Incredible. |
3,207 | Yes, a movie that earns 4x as much as it costs and gets an 82% on Rotten Tomatoes is a total disaster. With your vast intelligence and knowledge of the movie industry, you should be a producer! | Guess personal opinions are not much valued by r/movies. Or you folks are quite sensitive to them. |
3,208 | This is an X-ray dog Track. But you are right, Everyone is reading from the producer, but it is not Tek-Attack. Give me an hour. -_-' | If you have time could you ID this song for me too? I just can't find it... |
3,209 | >sandy tar paper. As a home renovator, I've never been so aroused. | Hank Hill would be into some Home Improvement literotica XD. |
3,210 | Thank you for leaving such a well thought-out response and not just saying "She sucks as an actress" or "J Law circle jerk OMG." I think Lawrence is a great actress but I won't see her as a legend until she plays a truly transformative role. Nyong'o deserves the oscar in my opinion, even more so than Ejiofor deserves best actor. He was amazing, but she and Fassbender owned that movie. I think I know which scene you're talking about and I'm with you. Watching a person go through what she did is one of the reasons why I loved that film but probably will never watch it again. | I watched it only last night. Wow. What a powerful movie it is. I'm surprised no one is talking about Fassbender's performance more. |
3,211 | That depends a lot on your location, rolling out an entire nationwide infrastructure upgrade every few years is a massive undertaking. I work on communication towers and there is definitely a shortage of skilled workers. The work is extremely dangerous and difficult, as well as requiring a lot of technical skills. Much of the equipment is located in incredibly remote areas, and often does not have a way to get fiber or a wired connection (microwave backhaul). Research and development will always be moving far faster than rolling out a nationwide equipment upgrade. People discover and invent new technology very quickly, but it takes far longer to engineer, produce, and install that across the entire country. | While I have no doubt that it takes monumental effort to roll it out, especially in a country this size, that does not mean that standards for each generation should be ignored, especially if they haven't even met the minimums yet. |
3,212 | (500) Days Of Summer seems to be a totally different movie to women as it is to men | I just find it a bit heavy handed, and then at the end that heavy hand punched me. |
3,213 | I literally just commented on it in another thread. Worth the read about how even speedtest.net displays higher speeds than what you actually get. | > Worth the read about how even speedtest.net displays higher speeds than what you actually get. This really isn't an issue (it would be an issue if speedtest.net was being dishonest. They're not). The internet is a chaotic place. Your service provider only provides "last mile" access to the wider internet. It's pretty worthless to speed test anything but the last mile when determining whether your ISP is providing you quality service. Measuring the real speed between you and service providers (like netflix or youtube) is worthwhile for other reasons, it's not worthwhile for determining whether or not you are receiving what you've paid for. |
3,214 | If I got bored 4 books into Wheel of Time, would Malazan be another series that will fizzle out do you think? I want to start another series, but Malazan has always seemed daunting to me | Personally i'd say no, I absolutely loathed my experience reading Wheel of Time and the Malazan series is possibly the best I've read. |
3,215 | Wait until they have reviews for the camera. Few months after I bought S8, the camera failed miserably. It's completely useless and the shop refuse to take back the phone. For now, I stick with other brand. | in Europe they'd have to take the phone back. It's under warranty and guarantee for 2 years here. |
3,216 | It gets a lot better (and intense) towards the end. But yeah, she played the character way too flat at times, and sometimes the behavior of the character made no sense, as if her only driving trait was to be a bitch, to the point of making even the viewer dislike her. Still, Carrie-Anne Moss was pretty good and I think the characters will work well in The Defenders. I thought it was solid overall, but not as good as Daredevil. Season 2 of DD was ridiculously good. | I agree season 2 of daredevil was great, except for the literal and figurative giant hole in the plot that all the characters completely forget about after spending so much time finding it. They gave exactly zero information about it even in the final episodes, and it pissed me off quite a bit. |
3,217 | Yes! ToKay is such an amazing musician and songwriter. I think Streetlight has better horns and is definitely more polished but I have to say I prefer the Catch-22 version. I came here to recommend Everything Goes Numb. Here's to Life is one of my all time favorite songs. | To me Everything Goes Numb is a flawless album. |
3,218 | Don't worry, buddy - I gave you an upvote. I think what you said contributes to the conversation. | Anyone involved in computers during the 90's knows the truth. |
3,219 | It likely won't. Most companies (corporate purchases and leases are xerox' bread and butter) don't have time to deal with this and lease these things from a vendor who will get the proper supplies anyway. Keurig has a more diverse and less captive audience. | Corporate is one thing, but if I as a consumer can't shop around online for the best price because of my region, They can kiss my ass. Honestly, I'd gladly pay more for less somewhere else. in spite. |
3,220 | What came first? /tv/ jerking off to Jesus Cameron or reddit hatejerking on Smurmy Ferngully Cameron? | Jesus Cameron, obviously. Smurmy Ferngully Cameron didn't happen until Avatar started breaking records. By now the counterjerks and circlejerks on him have *sort of* balanced out. Mostly. It's sort of like how Frozen became worse than Transformers 4 because it broke records that "belonged" to "better" films like The Lion King. |
3,221 | It is pretty shocking that Apple would provide a free trial without paying a cent to the artists creating that music but given Apple's influence in the music industry and how there technology influences so much of what we do, I can see there streaming service out shining all of it's competitors like spotifty. The trial period is intended to recruit new users to join who will hopefully continue to use the service afterwards and pay for it. 3 months unpaid is an investment to a much larger pay out down the road. | Just seems odd that Apple (with $200 billion in the bank) is forcing the labels to make that investment for them instead of investing the money themselves. |
3,222 | Where the fuck have I heard that verse melody before? /it's gonna drive me nuts all night now. Edit: Got it... [Sunday Bloody Sunday U2] with a slight variation on the last note. | Good catch, the variation being that by radio hit law the chorus has to come as soon as possible for the song to be short enough and for people to hear enough so it get's drilled into their heads. |
3,223 | Yeah, but that bass line is pretty fun to listen to! | But he'd need to haul a cash register up to space for the intro |
3,224 | No offense meant, but I'm guessing this is coming from a big comic book fan. I just think most people are going to get as much out of it as Thor, which stunk (and incidentally has a rating at 77). | The difference being, Spider-Man is a huge mainstream character. The Amazing Spider-Man also has a vastly superior cast and is being directed by Marc Webb. I think this new Spider-Man franchise will fill the shoes left behind by Christopher Nolan's Batman franchise. The new movie looks far better than any of the old Spider-Man films and the first 2 Spider-Man movies both have 90+ percent on the tomatometer. |
3,225 | I upvoted you from zero, because the downvote was inappropriate, and because I want an explanation of how you can edit faster. You have to move your hand from the keyboard to the mouse frequently. In vim you can type at full speed and change your whole document drastically, leaving pieces of it all over the place. The difference might be touch typists vs heavy mouse users. Some users might keep their hand on the mouse most of the time and use it almost constantly. But touch typists are more likely to keep both hands on the keyboard most of the time. | Well, in my case at least, I edit faster in Notepad++ because I actually *know how to use* Notepad++. :P. Anyway, usually the limiting factor of my typing speed isn't actually the typing itself, but rather the thoughts behind it (I program a lot, and I bet most of us can type way faster than they can program; and I'm on Windows so there's not much config file fuckery to do). Seems like learning vim would be a complete waste of time. |
3,226 | Listening now.....can someone explain why hes releasing it for free? Like how does he make any money? | I'm sorta late to the party but from my understanding artists like chance make money from tours and merchandise and the like (those SoX hoodies etc.). Also, I'd assume he gets paid for features as well. |
3,227 | hop on pop... it was just so tragic how they wouldn't stop hopping on pop... also : Twilight/Harry Potter made me cry... just how very god awfully atrocious they are, and so popular... | I think its pretty unfair to connect Harry Potter with Twilight. The writing in Harry Potter isn't life changing, but the characters are pretty amazing, and Rowling develops the plot really well. Twilight is just bad, I do agree with you there. |
3,228 | > My library is going to start charging $20 for a room/table reservation for people looking to play board games or D&D. This is a really good idea. I don't game, but I know space can be an issue for some of the war games especially. | It is. We started out from Meetup and one member is only 15, so being in a comfortable/safe space is key and very hard at times. |
3,229 | It would only be obnoxious if it was done too frequently, and destroying other people's property (although possibly satisfying) is illegal. Even if you did want to destroy it, it would probably be flying out of your reach. | Glad we invented slingshots to extend our reach because throwing stones is far to barbaric and shooting them is to futuristic. |
3,230 | You ran chkdsk in read-only mode. You need to run **chkdsk /f** which might fix this. Your hard drive might be failing. Also: | How does one run that? And I doubt it is... Well, I hope it isn't. I've only had this computer since last August! Thanks for the redirect! |
3,231 | Is Catch22 where the phrase "love at first sight" originates from? | Most definitely not. There is a book called "Love at first sight" which was released in 1885, which isn't even its origin. [More Info] |
3,232 | It imparted a sense of wonder and appreciation for me when i found it au natural in the game. I doubt this guy got that same feeling reading about it on Reddit. Not a game spoiler, but a facet of it. :( | Well can someone please inform me when thus artificial embargo has passed. |
3,233 | Murder, especially spousal, has pretty much a zero percent recidivism rate. And the Dutch system isn't based on vengeance but on what's best for society. | I'm with the other guy; the dude murdered somebody. And I'd be interested to see the sentences they used to acquire those rates, because I'm sure they were more than two years. |
3,234 | I dont get why people are saying this movie was slow. Yeah it was long but something or the other was always going on. Those dream sequences seemed pretty few and far between to me. Apart from those we got to see a lot of action. The trailer promised an intense movie and thats what we got. Everyones trying to be all interpretive and shit but all I saw was a very well made, well acted, action packed movie. 8.5/10 | Ummm.... because it was slow? It doesn't make it bad. It just means it moves slowly. |
3,235 | really good band, too bad their name reminds me just enough of the abomination called the black eyed peas... I almost could not listen | FUCKYOU. You shouldn't listen to the black eyed peas because the sound like the black keys!!! |
3,236 | I wasn't being sarcastic. I do really think that is the motive behind it. But the article title is sensationalized and makes it sound like they made a lot of money. The reality is that they where just trying to sell a lot of phones to increase user base. Article title should be *Xiamoi sells 2 million units in record day and increases market share* | Have you heard about Monoprice? It's a USA company based on small margin. Like, they won't carry a product if they can't undercut competition by 25-50% and still make money. They sell 2 bucks HDMI cables, go-pro style for 90$ and still make a profit on them. They went from nothing to making 120 millions a year. Small margins can be huge profits if you sell a lot. |
3,237 | It probably would make waves, but I have to wonder: what does it change, substantively, in the character or story? Not trying to pick on you, just honestly putting the question out there: besides the obvious, what would be different about a black J. Storm as opposed to a white J. Storm? I actually think it would be interesting if they cast a white Sue Storm opposite him and have one of them be adopted; the familial relationship, which *is* integral to the characters, would still be there but you'd have this added dynamic which could lead to interesting drama. | It's really just all about the traditionalism behind their respectivr ethnicities. I mean. I'm not entirely opposed to a switch, but I want it to make sense. Be a part of something. Not just switching up ethnicities to be racially diverse or something. It would just kinda be like nails on a chalkboard unless the performances and the movie itself was exceptional. |
3,238 | No, but there is so many of the already that the nostalgia factor can go on and on and on! | Meh. It's more of a 'we're connecting!' thing for people - those games are bad and irritating for the most part. |
3,239 | People like Mr Day sometimes publish their ramblings to read online, free of charge, in order to spread their message - like a man holding up a sign saying: "The End is Nigh!" I was just wondering if he'd done the same. Apparently not. | It's a good book, very thorough on the sad puppies, if you're interested, read it. If you just want to cheerleader grrm, you'll probably not want to read it |
3,240 | The playstation 4 is not even close to a supercomputer. Even the famed "playstation 3 supercomputer" was only ranked #33 in the world when it was at peak performance. 4 years ago. The PS4 has a 8 core, 1.6ghz processor. For $170, you can get a [4ghz 8 core processor] Meaning that a playstation is $68 worth of CPU processing by today's standards. Maybe $100 worth if you throw in the motherboard and networking requirements to connect it up. If anyone thinks a computer worth $68 is a supercomputer by any standards today, they're foolish. | *A* computer. Which is why they built clusters of them. The Air Force Research Laboratory used 1,760 PS3s, and as you said, reached #33. |
3,241 | My favorite Cash song: "The Man Comes Around" was recorded very late in his life. I agree. | Of his later stuff I love *The Beast In Me*. I don't get how any one else could have written it. |
3,242 | "Apple is of the stance that Qualcomm is charging all OEMs excessive rates for intellectual property it claims are standard and essential to the industry." 😂😂. You must be kidding me. Firstly Apple charges ridiculous rates for everything. Secondly, there is the Pocophone F1 running the latest Qualcomm hardware which proves you can make a device affordable, so Qualcomm's rates can't be that high after all. | Apple charges for products and people line up around the block to pay it, by the millions. Qualcomm is basically double dipping though. They are making Foxconn pay for a patent and then they want apple to pay too, even though Foxconn paid once already. It’s a joke. It’s like if you bought a car from a dealership and had to pay for the engine separately, twice. |
3,243 | I think I might be the only one who didn't know but.... Somewhere over the Rainbow - Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwoʻole. | It isn't my fault ok, I only ever saw wizard of oz once when I was little :( |
3,244 | Curse of the Golden Flower. Movie wasn't that great, but good god, the sets, the colors, the wardrobes, everything about it was visually stunning. | I agree and add pretty much anything by Zhang Yimou but especially his House of Flying Daggers. |
3,245 | Roundabouts do the same, and operate with no power, allow for cars going straight, right turns, left turns, and u-turns. | Roundabouts often aren't possible in existing congested cities. You would have to move buildings. |
3,246 | What I am struggling with today is this - If beautiful souls blessed with creative genius, brilliance and all the money they could ever want (Chris Cornell, Robin Williams...name many more) can't stand to cope with living in this world any longer....how the fuck should the rest of us go on living? How should we feel about our insignificant, mundane, day to day lives? | You're not them. You don't have the problems they have. You just have to find your own meaning and purpose in life. Being rich, creative or whatever else other people might be doesn't mean they have to be more happy or satisfied than anyone else. Don't overthink too much and just try to enjoy your own life in your own way. |
3,247 | I've done pretty well so far. I've only seen the first trailer with footage. I haven't seen the second, and have pretty much stayed away from everything else. I've read so many of the EU books that I doubt I'll be surprised by what they come up with, but I'd rather enjoy it all at once when I see the film. | you know that Disney has done away with EU and it's a completely new story right? |
3,248 | he was never not insecure, he's being himself - he's always been that way. I love the guy for being as entirely stupid and honest as he can be at most times. And I love the things he hates: "hipsters", electronic music, the new generation's style. He has a hard-on for artistic integrity, and that isn't something that will die with him. | [Albini actually has integrity rather than just raging about it in VH1.] |
3,249 | I don't believe you can delete it without a clean install, and even then it may be added again through the uefi BIOS. It is easy enough to open certificates to determine if you are affected though. | According to the [test website] I am affected. I don't get the green lock in Chrome, but I don't get any warnings either (in FF I do, as expected). If I right click on it in the MMC Certificates Snap-in, I have a delete option, but I don't know if that's the right thing to do. |
3,250 | And you conveniently leave out the part where the article states this has been known for a while by other people. Just adding unsubstanciated stuff on top of something true doesn't make the whole thing true. | I have not conviently left out anything. It is right there in my original post. So, just to be really clear.. The premise is true. The hypothesis is true but because the OP added some conjecture you are now saying none of it is true? That is absurd. And please don't edit your comments after mine to try and lend your original thoughts credence. |
3,251 | Saying a single band member is a big part of a band it's far from saying that the band would be nothing without them and that they alone define the sound of the band. Every band member together defines the band sound. | I don’t think it’s the case with tool, but there are plenty of instances where a single individual is what the rest of the band builds around or in more extreme cases they really are just filler as one person has complete creative control over every aspect and just needs bodies to play parts |
3,252 | 4 is better than 2. It got way to much hate over the PG-13 rating (it was a horrible decision but still setting that aside it's a competent action movie something 2 and 5 fail at). | >competent action movie. That's why people don't like it. It's an excellent action movie, no doubt, but it's not a good Die Hard movie. There are certain trademarks in Die Hard 1-3 that aren't present in 4, and when looking at them all as a whole, the last one sticks out like a sore thumb. Again, it's not bad, it just doesn't fit. |
3,253 | I agree, this story doesn't need magic. But, I'm hoping this guy doesn't want magic in any story. Think about how interesting that discussion would be. | That would be pretty nonsense. Some of our greatest works of art are filled to the brim with magic. |
3,254 | Beautiful movie but I got a little stabby near the end. "Don't go with them, dog! They don't deserve you." Stupid selfish human. | Yeah, stupid human eating an apple. Totally deserve to suffer. |
3,255 | Summary: flash-based drives, even the enterprise ones, are somewhat more error-prone than mechanical drives -- and the errors are based more on age than on usage. Make backups! | This isn't surprising information at all, considering the technology is just glorified SD cards. They start to get uncorrectable bit errors over the course of a few years just from gate discharge. Worth noting: UBER (bit corruption, not block failures) were what they noted as higher. So, the drives keep working, but they randomly lose data more often. |
3,256 | I'd not expect a Plath discussion to be free from Misandry. | Tbf, Hughes was a giant fucking twat who emotionally and physically abused most of the women in his life. I say this as a giant fan of his work. The man was a giant of literature. Still a scumcunt. |
3,257 | He can shoot, he can pass and he can dribble | I believe you mean act, sing, and ride a horse while juggling. |
3,258 | Can anyone answer who the one guy turns into - burn victim at the end - battled the Falcon (end scene). | He is also 50 + years old IRL. Jeez he is a monster. |
3,259 | I don't understand this song or the video. Will someone please explain it to me? | It's about a kid calling his friend to talk about a new song/artist he's heard on the radio. It makes him feel amazing and he doesn't think their parents will get it. It's just for them. It's new. It comes from an album that equates being a rock star with being from another planet. |
3,260 | One of the pictures is of Amy Adams giving Phillip Seymour Hoffman a hand job into the sink. (No joke). | Yes joke! Had to double check obviously...for science and all... |
3,261 | For me the words "fall away" so much that I start experiencing the story as a movie. In my mind I'm seeing a full-color immersive 3D movie of the scene. When I think about how much of the sentence I look at, I realize my eyes only "touch down" 2 or 3 times in the sentence. So I'll see the first half of the sentence, all at once in a fraction of a second, then the second half, also all at once. (I also read very fast) Meanwhile the movie-generator part of my mind is putting together the accompanying movie. | >When I think about how much of the sentence I look at, I realize **my eyes only "touch down" 2 or 3 times in the sentence.** So I'll see the first half of the sentence, all at once in a fraction of a second, then the second half, also all at once. (I also read very fast) Meanwhile the movie-generator part of my mind is putting together the accompanying movie. That's a really good description of what I experience. It's kind of strange to think about something so directly and try to figure out how to describe it, when the entire experience you are trying to relate happens without direct thinking or intention. |
3,262 | Coheed and Cambria - [The Willing Well IV: The Final Cut] | On one tour they extended, i think, everything evil into the trooper and it was awesome |
3,263 | Unfortunately it made the series difficult to "finish" for me, for familiar characters were suddenly a little bit strangers. I'm glad you found your confidence, but I'm unsure how I feel about the result. Still deciding if I'll try the ones starting with The Omen Machine...I know I'm not really finished. Loved The Last Confessor, though. And overall, I love the series and its characters. I just have a lot of conflicting feelings on the later books. | The Omen Machine series honestly feels like he employed a ghost writer. It reads very different from the other books, in my opinion, and the characters do things that don't seem fitting to their histories. |
3,264 | Am I the only who's getting more excited by these negative/lukewarm reviews? All the bad things people are saying about it are making me more hyped. Maybe it's because I also loved Man of Steel and Watchmen and have a preference for the brooding, weighty approach to superhero movies. "It's too dark and serious. Batman kills people. Lex Luthor's a twitchy maniac. Ugh Justice League setup. It's all a bunch of political drama and philosophical musings with bursts of mindnumbing nerdgasm action." *Sign me the fuck up.* | Watch the Doomsday trailer and you pretty much seen the film already other than a few weak plot points.. There isn't any memorable dialogue that isn't in the trailers |
3,265 | Based a bit on Gogol Bordello, you might try [DeVotchKa] some of my favourite songs (in no particular order) are: [Twenty Six Temptations] [How It Ends] [The Last Beat Of My Heart (Siouxsie & The Banshees cover)] [Transliterator] I could have easily tripled this list, but I'll stop there... EDIT: I always fuck up my formatting... | The only problem with DeVotchKa is that they're even less coherent live. I love deVotchKa when my friends play it, usually when I listen to the albums, but I felt ridiculous driving somewhere to listen to someone mumble under their breath. |
3,266 | Wheel of Time is.. epic.. I'm half way through book #13. There were a lot of complaints, not in a bad way. They claimed book #13 had too good of an ending and that the series wasn't deserving of it. I call bull shit, I find the final book absolutely brilliant.. | There's 14 books. #13 is Towers of Midnight. #14 is A Memory of Light. Make sure you read the last one. |
3,267 | ...how would you see the TV if you're wearing oculus? | I think he means the small screens inside the VR device would benefit from curvature. |
3,268 | Can someone explain like I'm fifteen how hard drive firmware can compromise my privacy? | Much more in depth analysis. But realize this is all very technical and we are reading the filter of this writer, who in turn has gathered information from another source. |
3,269 | It was a cover of a 1964 song by J. Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers, and Pearl Jam donated the proceeds from it to refugees in Kosovo. Vedder seemed to really put his heart into it. | No kidding? That makes me like the song even more; I've still got a lot to learn |
3,270 | I actually experienced that full range when I read in high school. Early on I felt he was incredibly relatable. And by the end I was struggling to finish it because I started to get real sick of his shit. | Now you know how your parents felt while raising a teenager |
3,271 | Of Mice and Men - John Steinbeck. I remember just staying on the last page of the book, couldn’t make myself close it. Gut punch right to the feels. Night - Eli Weisel (sp?) I don’t remember much of this book, read it probably 20 years ago. But I do remember the feeling while reading it | Steinbeck always makes my face leak too. Cannery Row is my favorite though, tears of joy. |
3,272 | There is too many buttons. I think I will get confused. Its not "modern" enough. | Whoa, you want one of those phones with buttons on the screen? What are you, from the future? |
3,273 | Off to a bad start on Reddit I see. | This is a throwaway. But, i'm still surprised that that got downvoted. |
3,274 | Keep in mind the video is also 11 minutes long, though. | Good point. Twice or three times as long as most music videos |
3,275 | Terry Pratchett, Haruki Murakami, Brandon Sanderson. I'm not quite sure if I would call them my favorite authors, but I've read most of their books and was wondering what people would recommend. | Just playing off Murakami, since he's magical realism and that's one of my favorite genres. Have you read The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon? Not as weird as Murakami, but has that weird mystery vibe to it. |
3,276 | An AI would just use its data to see what the most popular pizzas ordered are, and give you the most popular given your demographics. You're slot on, this is just RNG, absolutely not AI at all. | My local pizza shop in NY makes pizza with pasta noodles on top that is fantastic. That's the kind of recipe I could see emerging from a properly tuned model. It sees the similar ingredients and composition and draws a reasonable conclusion based on correlation. |
3,277 | thank you so much. they asked alot of questions that made me uncomfortable but i \\guess thats the only way to get free and to remind others that they can be free too. | Thank you so much for the reply! I'm sorry that it made you uncomfortable, but I totally related to a lot of what you were saying and found it helpful, so I hope that helps! |
3,278 | Act what way, exactly? I haven't seen any vitriol, unless I'm missing something here. | I'd love to give you proper examples but honestly, that would be time consuming as I don't save those kind of comments. If you've been around on TrekBBS and /r/startrek you'd know what I'm talking about. Some fans just act nasty unfortunately. If you dare say you enjoyed one of the prequels, there's always someone who will come and obnoxiously tell you off and claim you've no taste in anything. The few fans who dislike the Kelvin timeline but are able to hold a discussion in a civilized manner are amazing. I've just never seen so much hateful banter in the Trek fandom as I have since Into Darkness came out. |
3,279 | How long would i have to raw dog the beehive for? Also I assume that the bees that are for eating are alive? | raw dog for 5 minutes. Or eat 20 bees, chewing allowed. edit: but yes they go into your mouth alive |
3,280 | How do you guys feel when the hardcore kids start throwing down to songs such as beach community? Does it surprise you? Or do you embrace it | it was definitely strange to me at first, but as long as people aren't hurting each other, I really appreciate the excitement. matt |
3,281 | FLIPPING THE PHONE CLOSED TO END A CALL!!!!! unparalleled satisfaction compared to weirdly staring at the phone after a call poking the red circle before the other person does | that and the stupid fucking iphones that freeze up when you try to end the call so you just push the button 10 times and it finally hangs up after 20 seconds... not that i know from personal experience |
3,282 | It's definitely a step up from watching TV. I guess I find assembling flat-pack furniture quite zen and satisfying, and it's about the same thing. Finishing something pre-made rather than doing it all from scratch. | It takes the thinking out of accomplishment, which to have to admit I personally can appreciate. I do plenty of thinking during the week for work, and while its fun, a break from it on the weekends is nice. Maybe I should try an adult coloring book :) |
3,283 | Pretty simple answer; every year there's someone better. He knocks it out of the park every time which gets him the nomination but best lead actor is the most stacked category at the oscars every year. | Which is why I think the only Oscar he definitely should have won was for Best Supporting Actor in Gilbert Grape |
3,284 | Oh my god! you're my favorite author! I can't believe I'm catching this! I know the marriage of Kaddar and Kalasin was floated in the Emperor Mage book and then I believe that they got married. (Or am I remembering this wrong...?) Was it a love match or arraigned? Any interest in doing another book set in Carthak (besides the current Numair series)? | In return for her giving up her wish to try for knighthood, Jon promises Kally she will have the right to approve her prospective bridegroom. When offers come in, Kally requests that she be able to meet her suitors without their knowing she is the prospective bride. Nuff said. I am slowly compiling a collection of short stories and that will be one of them! At present I'm only thinking about the next project, and that will be with the newly founded Queen's Riders in Tortall. |
3,285 | > Warren Haynes, Bob Weir, Jon Paul Jones and Stewart Copeland play Police and Led Zeppelin covers. Ha ha, fuck you. ^(I'm a little jealous) | Clapton was even better, man. Front row center, he had Derek Trucks in his band at the time. I grabbed the set list from under the mic stand in front of me as they were taking a bow and the drummer tossed his sticks into the crowd and one landed in my lap as I was texting my ride home. |
3,286 | A cover isn't supposed to evoke the same emotion though? the whole point of doing a cover is changing its meaning in the way the artist covering interpreters it. I personally find the cover incredible. | I didn't say it should convey the same emotion or be the same. The first couple minutes are okay, but then the melodramatic drums get thrown in and he starts his metal wailing and it sounds almost like a show-tune in how over the top it is. There is no emotional center, no connection between the singer and the lyrics. It just sounds terrible to me. |
3,287 | i bailed on them 5 years ago, i got engaged, had two babies, bought a house and two cars, got drunk a lot and played a lot of video games when the kids were asleep... apparently THERE IS LIFE AFTER FACEBOOK!?!?!!? | Facebook is where people who can’t manage their time efficiently like you complain about not being able to do anything like that...because they’re just sharing memes and shit 6 hours a day. |
3,288 | If you can find a good live recording of Black Friday Rule, than I highly suggest it. That one live becomes absolutely insane. | This one is good, but not quite the same as the 10+ minute version they sometimes do. |
3,289 | The Rock? "losers try their best, winners go home and fuck the prom queen" has got to be one of my top 3 favorite Sean Connery movie quotes. | Agreed, such an underrated movie. "Honey, you wanna know who really killed JFK...?" |
3,290 | The book is phenomenal and definitely delivers in a lot of ways the movie doesn't, but this is one of those stories that benefits immensely from a visual medium. | I agree it does, and I love both but personally I prefer the book. |
3,291 | I dont know, most movies ive been too didnt have an intermission. The only one that had one that ive been too was interstellar (in Ede) and that was it | I watched Django at the Rembrant in Utrecht, that had an intermission. Being from the UK i was really confused when the lights came on half way through the film. I thought there was a fire or something. |
3,292 | Thom and Rachel have actually been separated for the past year, which the title doesn't tell you. Not that this would make it any easier. They also had two kids so my thoughts go out to them during this unimaginably tough time | not for nothing, when you have two kids, and have been together for two decades, i dont think being separated (not even properly divorced) for a year is going to diminish the event enough to be included in the headline. |
3,293 | You got it! And yes surprisingly as a person who loves a lot of movies but doesn't prefer some I guess I really enjoyed City of Ember. It was just different for me, and I mean Bill Freakin Murray! :D who couldn't like that! | I watched City if Embers with my eyes closed. I was trying to sleep on a long Flight. I heard everything and saw nothing. |
3,294 | Weird. OP comments in here getting downvoted all over the place but the thread has been upvoted enough to almost reach the front page. | I have that effect on people. I have a love/hate relationship with Reddit. It's mostly hate coming in, but hey, we take what we can get. |
3,295 | The title track is maybe the best song ever. Some say a comet will fall from the sky, followed by meteor showers and tidal waves, followed by fault lines that cannot sit still, followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits. So much more relevant today. It would be so worth the apocalypse just to see the look on the faces of the general population when they look up from their iPhones and realize how fucked they are. | Does the “general population" deserve to be destroyed in stupefying fashion? I don’t know why people warrant so much resentment that you might be glad for an apocalypse. Just because they spend time on their phones? Looking at a phone isn't that different than listening to an album, or talking on an internet forum for that matter. It’s just people doing stuff. I thought the song was moving at the time, and the sentiments are appreciable on an artistic level, and it’s partly a great “LA sucks” song, but looking back now most of the lyrics seem like juvenile spitefulness. |
3,296 | clearly not a fake argument given the amount of "this isn't the kind of gorillaz i like" comments. | Are we arguin YouTube comments or reddit comments? Cuz all the posts in this thread just says the song sucks. |
3,297 | So you do defend this racist stereotype then. I figured. You are a racist and you have issues with people because of their while skin. | No I think you lack reading comprehension skills. Maybe you are just very sensitive. Idk |
3,298 | We pretty much had the same book childhood except switch out the hardy boys for the boxcar children. I'm pretty sure I own every Oz book, and I start books all the time that i read a long time ago- happened to me with Good Omens recently. (I was very concerned that Neil Gaimon and Terry Pratchet combined and I hadn't read their book...and then I was confused about why I was being so prophetic and knew everything that was going to happen in the book.) Anyways, our book interests makes us friends! | If you want to check there are 14 books by L Frank Baum 19 By Ruth Plumly Thompson then 7 by other authors for a total of 40. If you come across any first editions let me know I still don't have them all. (I have all of Baums first editions and most of Thompsons but I am still looking for the others (with dust jackets if possible). Very nice to meet you as well. I would not be who I am without a love of books and other lovers of books are by far my favorite people. |
3,299 | It wasn't the games, it was the business practices around downloadable content, microtransactions, etc. | Not microtransactions. People were angry about them shutting down studios, rushing out games (DA2), having always online games (simcity), and DLC practices (day 1 dlc for ME3) but microtransactions were really not a factor. I just didn't want to write all of that out (I was being lazy) and none of those are even close to making EA the worst company in America and are only slightly less stupid reasons for voting EA as such. |
