Topic | I dont understand why some people hate having to take a lunch break at work |
Cinderforge 12/19/19 3:05:51 PM #3 | Because people today are happy to be exploited. |
Topic | Stop wasting your life playing video games. |
Cinderforge 11/07/19 6:37:25 AM #30 | Can't remember who said it but here's some wisdom for the day: "Time you enjoy wasting isn't wasted time." - some guy |
Topic | man, the UK is in an electorial mess right now for the december election |
Cinderforge 10/30/19 4:10:01 AM #26 | Parappa09 posted... lib dem - they completely oppose brexit which is good, but they're too right wing for me What? Lib dems right wing? You can't be serious lol... |
Topic | Recommend me a good Western movie to watch.... |
Cinderforge 10/25/19 3:00:51 PM #16 | The Big Country Shane Fastest Gun Alive High Plains Drifter |
Topic | IBM's rebuttal to Google's "quantum supremacy" claims. |
Cinderforge 10/24/19 1:06:35 PM #12 | It was a pretty wild claim by Google to be fair. I mean 10,000 years for a supercomputer to produce some random numbers, c'mon Google, you're not fooling anybody lol. |
Topic | How are TVs now compared to 5-10 years ago? |
Cinderforge 10/23/19 8:37:16 AM #11 | You can get a big TV for cheap these days but they're all sloowww. Annoying tbh, can't we just have TVs that are just TVs? Is that too much to ask... |
Topic | About to go to an interview. How do I not look like a boob? |
Cinderforge 10/23/19 8:29:40 AM #3 | Did you do research on the company? Did you look up what might be asked? Did you prepare answers for the obvious questions e.g. tell us about yourself? I've always found that if I'm well prepared then that enables me to give confident answers. |
Topic | What World Language should I take this year? |
Cinderforge 08/08/19 4:35:47 AM #17 | Gotta ask yourself which of those is going to be useful in a global sense. Yes you could say Mandarin but actually I think French has the greater spread globally. You already have Spanish so add French to that mix (not to mention English that you already know) and that is a lot of the world covered. |

Cinderforge 08/07/19 11:14:14 AM #91 | Human + hydra = immortal human? |
Topic | It's mental health that causes shootings, not the gun! |
Cinderforge 08/06/19 6:29:12 PM #28 | It's mental health that causes shootings, not the gun! About as naive a statement as "guns don't kill people! People kill people!" I'm actually surprised though, I've not seen anyone use that "argument" in any thread about mass shootings. |
Topic | Event Horizon series is currently in production at Amazon. |
Cinderforge 08/06/19 7:10:45 AM #7 | This can only be a bad thing... I can see this trying too hard to explain stuff - some things are better as a mystery (I'm looking at you Alien). |
Topic | I think the real problem behind mass shootings is pride. |
Cinderforge 08/05/19 4:25:34 PM #22 | Mass shootings are the extreme end of the spectrum but yeah their is a problem with younger people being told how amazing they are and then not living up to that. Any wonder why depression, anxiety etc is so high amongst people in their 20s. Not everyone is gonna be brilliant and they need that reality sooner rather than later. |
Topic | Cheydinhal in Oblivion is better than any town in Skyrim |
Cinderforge 08/04/19 9:34:19 AM #8 | Hackdirt had more character than any town from Skyrim. |
Topic | 'No way to prevent this' says only country were this regularly happens. |
Cinderforge 08/04/19 8:46:35 AM #15 | No way to prevent this says country that has an unhealthy obsession with deadly weapons. |
Topic | idk guys I'm not really seeing the appeal of Link to the Past yet |
Cinderforge 08/03/19 8:17:32 PM #20 | Yeah I agree with the others saying Links Awakening was the better 2D zelda. Always felt LttP was a bit of a chore to play whereas LA is great fun (and the music wow). Looking forward to the remake! |
Topic | Who the fuck invented Brazil nuts? |
Cinderforge 08/03/19 8:08:15 PM #10 | Brazil nut fun facts: - The trees the nuts come from can only grow in the wild due to the delicate ecosystem required to produce the nuts. - They're slightly radioactive and a handful of them will set off radiation alarms at nuclear power stations. |
Topic | What's the downside of labor unions? |
Cinderforge 07/31/19 4:15:16 PM #55 | KamenRiderBlade posted... Colorahdo posted...This is the argument that I disagree with the most so farAnd for those who want to work hard and earn more money for that hard work and deliver more value? You're right but I think that work is there for those that want it. I think there needs to be a distinction made between being essentially exploited by doing extra work for nothing and being paid for extra work as overtime or working on your days off. Extra work is there for those that want it but it's not required or expected or even demanded. You should always be paid for your work. |
Topic | What's the downside of labor unions? |
Cinderforge 07/31/19 3:44:40 PM #51 | Colorahdo posted... Questionmarktarius posted...Sunburst posted...As an employee, the only downside is having to pay your dues. This is so true. Trade unions want a good work/life balance for their members. |
Topic | What's the downside of labor unions? |
Cinderforge 07/31/19 3:21:18 PM #44 | There's simply no reason not to be in a Union if there's one available. Stronger together to use a clich. |
Topic | Will Bethesda make TES VI as gutted of RPG mechanics as Fallout 4 |
Cinderforge 07/30/19 12:53:23 PM #32 | You either make a proper rpg which takes away the mass appeal or you make a simplified action/adventure that pretends to be an rpg which brings in the dollar. Guess which one they'll pick? Today's industry is profit over artistic vision. |
Topic | I'm told my raise will kick in in August |
Cinderforge 07/29/19 3:12:29 PM #4 | CableZL posted... MeIon Bread posted...How much? Great, you can finally add another wing to your mansion :) |
Topic | Does the United States have a serious problem with mass shootings? |
Cinderforge 07/29/19 8:23:07 AM #64 | Funbazooka posted... Cinderforge posted...Ultimately, it comes down to gun control but apparently that's satan talk. Oh and the elephant in the room... the old second amendment... guess we can't amend an amendment? No one (with any sense) is asking for revocation... just changing it will do... like ya know, an amendment. St0rmFury posted... I know people are probably sick of hearing this, but any hope of meaningful change died with Sandy Hook. This is sadly true and is something that should keep getting brought up whether people are sick of it or not. I mean, if the deaths of 20 young kids didn't change anything, what will? |
Topic | Does the United States have a serious problem with mass shootings? |
Cinderforge 07/29/19 3:23:45 AM #38 | The media isn't to blame... This isn't something that happens in other countries (that's not to say it hasn't on rare occasions) - this is solely an American thing. Mass shootings that get big media attention aren't the ones happening every day. And these happen because of how easy it is to access guns and how easily said guns can kill. Ultimately, it comes down to gun control but apparently that's satan talk. Oh and the elephant in the room... the old second amendment... guess we can't amend an amendment? |
Topic | Never played Morrowind; should my first time be totally vanilla? |
Cinderforge 07/25/19 7:34:47 PM #16 | Vanilla with patches is fine. Personally, I would have tribunal expansion just for the enhanced quest log but then the assassin will be a real pain for a newcomer. Two mods I would recommend, when you're ready, are graphic herbalism and fair magicka regen. GH lets you pick flowers etc rather than opening them as containers. FMR gives you a small amount of real time magicka regen, enough to make pure spellcasting bearable. |
Topic | It's shite being scottish. |
Cinderforge 07/25/19 5:44:37 AM #22 | Hahaha independent Scotland? You and what economy? |
Topic | who's worse: sjws or anti-sjws |
Cinderforge 07/25/19 5:40:19 AM #11 | Just getting in here before the sjw denial begins. |
Topic | It irritates the eff out of me when prices drop the trailing 0's. |
Cinderforge 07/21/19 2:56:45 PM #4 | Hipster restaurants always do it now |
Topic | People that say Ahmens instead of Almonds |
Cinderforge 07/19/19 12:45:15 AM #2 | Also people that say mee-yor instead of mirror. Or even just merrhh like they're having some kinda seizure. It's not that difficult a word folks. |
Topic | I am a Florida Man. Ive been on AC all day long. Then I walked outside |
Cinderforge 07/19/19 12:40:29 AM #8 | This is what immediately came to mind when I saw "Florida Man": ![]() |
Topic | I wish we had more single player campaigns in video games |
Cinderforge 07/17/19 3:42:05 AM #7 | I just want to go back to a time when games were made to be fun and not to squeeze money out of people. When developers ran the studios and made the games they wanted not the suited bean counters insisting on this year's iteration of mediocrity. I can only dream. |
Topic | Watching through the Indiana Jones films for the first time. |
Cinderforge 07/17/19 3:18:23 AM #5 | Raiders still the best Indy imo. |
Topic | Are there decent paying jobs with a Political Science degree? |
Cinderforge 07/17/19 3:15:54 AM #8 | Lecturer in political science |
Topic | Give me your spiciest take. |
Cinderforge 07/15/19 4:23:46 AM #49 | Evening_Dragon posted... fire_bolt posted...The world would be a better place if everyone over 45 died overnight. It would take a couple years to sort out the aftermath, but humanity would bounce back. ![]() |
Topic | Do you think millennnials will EVER be able to build up serious savings? |
Cinderforge 07/14/19 5:32:48 AM #79 | _Deuce_ posted...
It all adds up pal. About $150 a month, heading towards $1800 a year. |
Topic | Do you think millennnials will EVER be able to build up serious savings? |
Cinderforge 07/13/19 12:24:33 PM #52 | M_Live posted...
Wow, I mean, I don't understand that sentence. Perhaps I'm not young enough? I am young enough to be a millennial however. The salt generated from the satire of my own gen is incredible but I'm not surprised. If you want it simplified; younger/youngish people now have their priorities wrong, there's no willingness to sacrifice. Oh and to the other guy, that $2500 could go towards a deposit or into a savings account. Not on luxuries. |
Topic | Do you think millennnials will EVER be able to build up serious savings? |
Cinderforge 07/13/19 6:51:40 AM #4 | "I just can't save any money", said the millennial, sat in Starbucks drinking their $7 pumpkin latte, wearing the latest designer clothes. "The internet tells me it's the previous generations fault. Definitely not me" they said, looking into their $800 iPhone whilst typing their novel on a $1500 macbook. "Still, at least I have my degree in media studies. Worth every cent. If that doesn't work out that won't be my fault either!" |
Topic | Remember when you were excited for Fallout 76 to launch? |
Cinderforge 07/04/19 3:35:23 PM #19 | Remember when you were excited for Fallout 76 to launch? Said no one ever... |
Topic | Best Milkshake flavor |
Cinderforge 07/04/19 6:11:22 AM #8 | How is banana not an option? It's one of the "basic" milkshake flavours... banana is king. |
Topic | MM = BotW > TP > WW > OoT >>>>>>>>>> SS |
Cinderforge 07/03/19 2:24:33 PM #14 | WW is goat and LA best 2D. LttP most overrated, MM most underrated. OoT most hated because it's too popular therefore it's trash even though it really isn't and is just behind WW. |
Topic | Mario Kart 9 needs to be Double Dash 2 |
Cinderforge 07/03/19 1:36:07 AM #11 | Yes the original controls badly now (or takes longer to "git gud") but the concept is still sound. Peach + Baby Mario/Luigi was OP I seem to remember. Also Wii is superior to 8 in every way it's not even close. |
Topic | Why should lazy people be paid a universal income? |
Cinderforge 07/02/19 9:04:39 AM #27 | Rexdragon125 posted... Most studies show that people become more productive with UBI since they don't have to spend all their time surviving. But then capitalists won't be able to get off on exploiting people. What studies? Actual UBI experiments haven't shown any increase in employment or productivity. Finland being the most recent and well known example. Their finance minister said they would be better off with welfare and tax reform instead. |
Topic | I have only watch Seasons 1 and 2 of GOT. Worth it to go through it all now? |
Cinderforge 05/21/19 11:25:21 PM #14 | Get to the end of season 7 then make up your own ending. |
Topic | Cocaine is a hell of a drug |
Cinderforge 05/11/19 5:23:43 AM #22 | Far too edgy in here. Dangerously edgy. |
Topic | Favorite Arnold Schwarzenegger quote? |
Cinderforge 05/11/19 5:14:34 AM #11 | Bad guy: "...if you want your kid back, then you've got to cooperate. Right?" Arny: "Wrong!" *shoots bad guy in the head* Lol |
