    Lynch wasn’t mad he couldn’t finish it. He said it was the worst experience of his life and he would never do anything like it again. He wanted off the project as soon as possible.

    He spent more time on torturing a hairless cat and a minor lieutenant of the Atreides than he spent on the entirety of the Fremen people and Chani’s character. The new films are so much better it’s not even funny.









  • The rest were ruined by leavers, smurfs, toxicity, or just bad matchups that made the games lopsided

    leavers

    just ban them after a couple offenses

    smurfs

    matchmaking system should be able to detect smurfs (high KDAs, high win rates, other metrics) and boost their hidden ELO very quickly - thus making them no longer smurfs

    toxicity

    just ban them after a couple offenses

    bad matchups

    matchmaking makes this better, not worse. without skill based matchmaking you would have even more lopsided games with even more disproportionate skills

    Seems like the real issue with League is Riot’s unwillingness to permaban players and enforce its rules, instead trying to retain the toxic players forever and coddling their behavior with special queues. Part of this is that toxic players pay just as much (if not more) money than other players, and the other part is that it would be expensive to hire enough GMs to actually review all the cases of toxicity in chat. The problem isn’t the matchmaking, it’s riot being cheap




  • incorrect, especially after January 6th and Charlottesville. Democrat elected officials were calling Trump a traitor, a Russian asset, a fascist, a dictator, saying he was going to destroy democracy. Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, AOC, Bernie Sanders, all of them were and continue to say this hyperventilating nonsense. They were actually saying the words “concentration camps” at the border, which suddenly became fine once Biden got into office btw. The fascism is alive and well, as always.

    Goodwin’s Law is that comparisons to Nazis are not apt, him coming and out and saying it didn’t apply was him saying it was fair game to call Trump a Nazi. This is another example of the hyperventilation. Bill Maher was having 1 hour specials about how Trump was alt right and fascist. MSNBC and Maddow are on the RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA express, and have called Trump an open traitor many many times who threatens democracy and all that.

    Go listen to the podjons pods during the trump years, it was all hands on deck this is a fucking emergency for democracy 24/7 insanity the whole time. They were freaking the fuck out calling him a fascist and more.

    I guess you’re right we do have very different experiences except I know for a fact mine reflects reality sooo…

    You could have not just said this smug passive aggressive horseshit. In fact, mine reflects reality and yours is only talking about centrist republicans.





  • stop using nonsensical metaphors to understand reality. Look at concrete actions and results of those actions.

    Biden is perpetrating a genocide right now against Palestinians, and started a war against Russia that has claimed over a million lives. Biden’s policies if he were president in 2020 would be roughly identical to Trump’s policies, and even less people would follow guidelines because there wouldn’t be an anti-Trump culture war to make Liberals want to wear masks to show their moral virtues. Covid would have been swept under the rug even more quietly, with less pushback from the population.

    It’s not that Trump is “better”, that’s not the point. The point is countering the radlib tendency among the left to overly freak out about “Trumpism” and “Fascism” as if it’s some anomaly and every blame can be placed on Trump’s shoulders. He’s the scapegoat, and when you repeat this kind of naive idealist analysis that could only be done by like a 20-year old or younger, you are playing into the DNC narrative of Trumpwashing. THAT is the reason more hardline leftists downplay Trump being to blame for everything, because the squishy radlib left are trying to place all the blame on GOP/Trump, which is a narrative being fed to them by the DNC.
