Kind of a trend, the amount of youtubers who i had loved but their content became generic after gaining popularity is quite a bit, most drastic one being mrwhosetheboss, his uniqueness went down faster than MH27 MH17
I dont know about his knowledge, really, but I watched a few videos when shopping for my most recent phone and found his reviews to be a bit shallow and personal, not particularly objective and somewhat biased.
But i would like to say, the number of views a youtuber gets is not directly related to the quality of the entertainment other than it has to appeal to the most people in order to make it. That often leaves a bland taste to the videos. Its true of youtube, of music, of film… or any form of media really. You dont get popular by being extremely talented and nishe.
It is also not directly related to being smart. You only have to look at someone like elon musk to see that. Hes, frankly, an idiot. But he has done very well for himself to a point. Obviously, he’s fallen off now,
Fact is, not agreeing that Marquis is a good youtuber is not equal to being triggered, and its kind of ironic coming from the white knighr who cam running to his defence on a fairly obscure message board. :)

I have had a tendency since my earliest days on social media where I will get halfway or more through a response, and end up just cancelling it. Sometimes I feel like I’m just being to over the top with snark or otherwise don’t want to be that kind of person, but a lot of the time I’ll decide I just really don’t care...
It depends how long the comment is. Short comments get past the “dont post it” filter 99% of the time. But long posts give me time to realise i dont care enough to carry on.
Can’t speak for americans but in the UK it is customary to measure things in number of bananas and count things in tins of baked beans. Dont get me started on fractions.

Get a miniature machete like the ones they use in the films to cut vines etc. when trying to get through a jungle and bring it with you when you are going down on her.
Bonus points if you get a jungle outfit like nigel thornberry.
After reading a story about bg3 patch 5 adding an epilogue set 6 months after the games end with over 3500 new lines of dialogue, new cutscenes which is based on the thousands of decisions you made in your playthrough and different for everyone and its just a patch and its free. This makes me so mad that blizzard have become this shit hole of a company.
Warcraft 3 was great aswell. After completing the campaign, jumping on battle.net for custom games was the most fun i could have back then. Some incredible games on there. It was the bithplace of dota and was what popularised tower defence games thanks to things like pokemaul. There was a full dragonballz rpg with custom character models and it worked really well. So much quality on the custom game bit. And it was all free. (Aside from buying the base game)
World of warcraft though. I dont think i can agree with you. Paying subscriptions was not fun but that game used to be amazing. At the time it was the pinnacle. No mmorpg could compare and none were as popular. And it stayed popular for years. There are very few modern games with the staying power wow had. It was regularly updated, it reflected player feedback, their wants and needs in all its updates. It had real challenges, it spawned so many memes (granted they werent memes at the time)
I played it a lot for a few years. Until it started releasing expansions which cost even more money. Im paying monthly and so are millions of other players. Now you want to sell me an expansion and call it a full game. Burning crusade was ok, litch king was pushing it but beyond that it was basically heres a new place to explore and everything you have done up to this point is irrelevant as there are common green items that are better than you legendaries. Your max level max geared paladin is worth shit now and can be stomped by a level 61 in greens. Nah. No thanks. Then they got so far into these expansions they just reset the base game and made that 1 to 60 grind a cake walk. They even made it so you could skip it all. All the content they spent so much time on, that made the game popular is just a skippable footnote.
And now to top it all they are selling “wow classic” which is the original game with no patches and they have been slowly releasing those patches so the nostalgic amongst us can experience that og game all over again. They can point and say, “hey, i remember that. Cool.”
Im just sitting here wondering how anyone thought this was going to be good in the first place. Every bit of trailer or gameplay footage has made me meh from day one. “Looks like skyrim but in space” ive played skyrim… to death… changing the theme to space isnt exiting. Its cheap.
Ive been saying this shit for years and people argue with me about it. CoD hasnt been a good game for years. Near enough a decade. Maybe even longer.
It was popular and its popularity, regular release of the next CoD, its marketing and hype are the only reason it was big.
It stopped being good when they made reskin after reskin after reskin for a game that other companies were doing better and had been for years. Activision knew what they were doing and they cashed in big time on that IP.
This is a coherent method and makes a lot of sense.
Mental gymnastics is when someone has to lie to themselves to make a point that isn’t correct. Like when people argue that trump was a good president because they can list several good things he did.
Or when people claim something is mental gymnastics when it’s actually called maths.
Wallet, coin part with a zip to keep it safe. It sits next to a random quarter i was given as change (im from the uk and it was given in place of a similar looking uk coin) a silver 1 pence coin (apparently they are rare and worth about £60 but as if my lazy arse is gon a sell it (and who actually buys these things anyway?) Some guitar picks and a franc (defunct french currency)
They have shown us a new VM system, which has windows 11 clients soni assume its in the works but rhe windows 10 rollout to 6000 employees was a nightmare.
I always struggle with this. Everyone has a right to their opinion, and i accept that for you, the movie is bad. But when a vast majority of people say it’s good, including average joe as well as experts, enthusiasts, and critics. you have to get to a point where you realise you are the only one in the room who disagrees, and maybe you are wrong, and perhaps you are missing what makes it good.
But yeah, its up to you. You dont have to like something just because everyone else does. It just blows my mind a little.
I know younsa8d somewhere you cant use amazon but something like this is perfect. A colleague at work uses a cheap moto phone and they are great considering they are ridiculously cheep. This on is £70 (about 2m vnd) compared to a current flagship phone that can cost over £1000

Do routers resolve domains for DNS? Would i need to enter an IP address? How will my router resolve DNS.adguard.com if it needs to use DNS to resolve the domain name? Sorry, that might be a dumb question.
There are some brands of bicycles that can cost more than the down payment on a car. Why? Surely making a bike lightweight and reliable isn’t so difficult that it warrants that price? Is it just the brand name or maybe it has to do with customization options?
I think there is a difference when you are living in the netherlands.
bikes are part of the culture and have been for like 100 years. there are cycle paths everywhere. Your infrastructure is built for cycling. Meaning you dont have many bad roads or paths to damage your bike.
The majority of the roads in the uk are terrible and dont have dedicated cycle lanes, and our walking and cycle paths are mostly dirt paths through wooded areas.
your country is almost completely flat, so you dont have to put much strain on your bike to get it around.
Again here in the uk the land is all over the place, hills everywhere, which puts alot of strain on your chain and gears as you have to change gear constantly so you dont have to work too hard to maintai your speed and momentum…
So i dont think a 30 year old double hand me doqn will suit most people here. And i imagine its a similar story in other countries.
Granted, im generalising a bit, and i dont live in the netherlands and haven’t seen much of it, but i dont think im being too liberal with my starements above. But if im wronf rhwn by all means correct me.
Looking at this wiki page under history it date back to before 1900 and was becoming more and more popular until 1960 when it took a hit as cars became more affordable but then began to rise again following protests from the dutch people around road deaths. But the development of cycling paths/routes has been going on over there since before the 1900s
This week, it’s Alan Wake 2, which has released and scored an 89 on Metacritic, a tick below a 90, but a 92 if you’re looking on PC where its visuals can be maxed to their fullest.
