School isn’t just learning the stuff in the classes. It’s the shared experience too. It’s the teachers holding you accountable for learning.
“Going to school” is a very different thing than just trying to learn on your own. Self motivation and time are a huge barrier for a lot of people. I think the OP was imagining being able to go to school every day and just take classes for free with other people also interested.
It’s honestly a pretty fun game! It is Overwatch+Dota and the way they’ve done landing/farming with last hits and denies in a shooter is really interesting.
Team fights are fairly chaotic and I can’t tell what’s going on, and honestly there might be too much complexity, but the moment to moment gameplay is really solid. Movement and shooting feel great, combat is chunky and satisfying, and comebacks are semi common.
IDK if I have the desire to get into another MOBA like this, but this is unique enough to enjoy playing with friends for awhile.
It’s really great, isn’t it? I tried to get some friends into it but it seems like I’m the only one who enjoys rhythm games. I really like The Magician I think
Isn’t that the status quo? I guess it’s not really fathers to daughters, but most women I know went through some amount of “here’s how to be a good wife” lessons from their mothers or family. I think women get a lot of “traditional gender roles” training that’s mostly about being caretakers.
Usually people putting forth this kinda “women should learn how to care for their man” attitude are coming from a conservative “traditional family values” position.
Really, we should be teaching people how to ask about and learn the needs of their partner, and how to determine your own needs and communicate those to your partner. Basic emotional intelligence stuff. It doesn’t have to be gendered at all.
I think these types of moral questions aren’t actually that useful, because the actual problem at the heart of it (and at most things) is the difference in power.
Instead of asking “what age should temporary prostitution be legal,” maybe we should ask "why have we concentrated so much excess power in the hands of this one guy who can drop a life changing payment for a one time service and still have plenty left over? Does it really make sense to try to come up with an arbitrary age that we’ve decided you’re immune to coersion?
This entire moral quandary doesn’t really exist in the (admittedly idealistic) world where power isn’t so unequally distributed.
The US version was severely bungled, especially in the cutting of the runtime to a 30 minute timeslot from 60. They made that decision AFTER filming it, so they edited down full episodes to half their length.
I think everyone agrees that Reggie Watts was not a great choice for the Taskmaster, but I do think a US version could work with the right group. It has to find it’s own voice though, and be given room to grow, which is hard for US TV.
It’s one thing for a politician to say whatever to get elected and then go the opposite way. Actually changing positions based on new information and what you think is what voters need is exactly what a politician SHOULD do. I never get this complaint… I guess it’s just that people don’t trust that politicians are ever genuine?
I don’t necessarily disagree, and everyone is different, but you should consider that it’s not just you that changes. You change WITH your partner. You grow TOGETHER. I am absolutely different than I was 10 years ago, and so is she, but that doesn’t mean that we’re no longer compatible. Our growth contributed to each other’s growth.
I do think people should be maybe… less attached? You should regularly evaluate your relationship to see if it’s working. Shared interests aren’t even always necessary (as long as they at least show interest in what you like and vice versa). But that is very hard and many people would rather not be alone.
The Switch controllers connect via Bluetooth and can be paired with a computer no problem. Not sure why these would be different
I hit a deer while listening to the band Deerhunter. Was a bit surreal.
It works a bit better if you put a little bit of wood glue on the tip of each toothpick before driving it into the hole. Definitely a great trick!
Somebody convince me I’m wrong.
There is no reason to display “100%” in your UI for more than a single second. Either show 99% and then finish, or show 100% only when you are ACTUALLY done and only show it for a little.
If you’re still doing ANYTHING AT ALL don’t say you’re 100% complete. How is it still like this
Like most liberal women, she has been relentlessly slagged in the media since she got any amount of recognition. I’d look more closely at her actual politics and history, because while it isn’t perfect, it certainly is different than how the public seems to (negatively) perceive her.
Reno is an awesome town now, you should check it out.
Isn’t the game locked to 60?
Sure, but Sony has shown that they’re happy to release some of their exclusive on PC. The Horizon and God of War games both got decent PC ports.
A huge portion of Fromsoft fans are on PC. It would be a day one purchase for pretty much all of them. That’s been the frustration.
Isn’t the price matching requirement only when you’re giving Steam keys as part of the purchase from the other store? If Steam is going to permanently host and distribute the games, it’s only fair that the price on their store matches the other places you’re selling keys
People aren’t celebrating being obese. They’re celebrating being themselves and accepting that they’re more than their body. They’re also saying that it’s possible to be beautiful and desirable even if you’re overweight.
Fat shaming doesn’t work. People don’t always try to improve themselves when they feel like they’re worthless. Sometimes they do, and you’ll always see some ex-fat person in the comments saying how they needed the shame to improve, but the data doesn’t really support that position.
I just want people to be able to be happy. I want people to be treated like humans regardless of their looks and weight. That’s the goal of most of these *movements."
Also… While some extra crazy people out exist that claim that it’s healthy to never move and be over 300 pounds, those people are often cherry picked and used as examples of cultural downfall, even when they’re the minority.
Did you know that drag is not always sexual? It can be, but it doesn’t have to be.
John Stewart communicates a sincerity that the rest of the correspondents and hosts haven’t really managed. They mix in a bit too much smugness or something. I find them all fine in small doses, but only John Oliver has really matched those moments where John Stewart looks at the camera and seems to be pleading with ALL of the American people. He had a way of criticizing without being elitist.
