His annoying face is everywhere. Fucking Influencer products everywhere

Same LMAO they’re neat but I’ve always been so meh about them. And there’s not even like new ones, it’s always the same versions over and over again

Personally superhero movies aremy crowning achievement as far as willing suspension of disbelief goes.

It’s fine that superheroes have powers and/or levels of combat expertise that would be impossible to achieve at their age WITHOUT superpowers. That’s just how it is.

That they solve all major problems by punching people and acting as less murderous COPS, though? THAT’S what I have to force myself to overlook in order to enjoy the escapist silliness I’m watching 😄

Superheroes are gay.

I’ve been watching countless PirateSoftware drama videos since it’s the clown that keeps on giving. I never bothered with drama channels on YouTube, so I never realized how much of an industry these people made out of it now that I keep getting recommend them. It’s sickening.

Apps can collect all your data from your phone whereas a website doesn’t have access to your GPS location, etc necessarily.

I can’t help but wonder how much the popularity of reality TV led us to where we are now. I don’t just mean how the US president used to have his own stupid show, but how many people grew up thinking that “watching people create drama” is peak entertainment.

The same era saw the decline and demise of a number of educational channels and shows. Is it a coincidence? I don’t know. All I know is there are lots of adults who grew up watching “reality” shows who now think politics are just a game to “win” and that when their opponents are upset, it’s amusing. It’s like the concept of empathy or working together don’t even enter their minds. Everything is just for entertainment, no matter how serious it is or how many innocent people get screwed over by it.

It’s cheap to make. People watch other people at their packagable worst. That’s about it.

Interdimensional cable is arguably better.

This was not a response I expected, I thought the only people who didn’t like multiple monitors were ones who never tried it lol

My peak was like 8 monitors, I’m at 6 now, but I can never go back to a single one long term. Whenever I do it temporarily for whatever reason it’s agonizing

When doing work that requires multiple apps to be open or file explorers, web pages, and reference stuff then having a second is very convenient a lot of the time. Yeah, I could stretch it out on one giant monitor if it was an option, but two just makes it easy to keep track of what is where by having physical breaks.

At home it is great for having discord or other thing off to the side for communication or reference while playing games full screen on one monitor instead of needing to alt tab or use windowed mode smaller than full screen. If I did a more immersive driving/flying set up I would have three for the wrap around effect and a fourth for the extra stuff.

Both situations are for convenience.

I do know someone at work that has three but they handle the infrastructure and they often have multiple apps and browsers open for all the things that interact when troubleshooting and having it large and readable makes it easier to see what is changing and what isn’t changing at the same time.

I didn’t get it either until one class in high school (graphic design) had second monitors installed for all work stations halfway through the year. It’s super useful being able to have reading material open on a vertical monitor! Only reason I don’t have one still is because of very limited space (can’t even fit a normal PC).

I did start using my TV as a second monitor recently though for putting Zoom meetings on it. I got tired of having to alt tab back to it every once in a while when doing stuff. TV sits behind my laptop so only like half the screen is visible but it’s good enough!

they’re great if you do more than one thing at a time or need many programs open at the same time. anyone who regularly ‘alt-tabs’ to find or switch to a different window that they cannot currently see could benefit from another screen.

one wide or ultra wide display may not work as well, as some programs simply aren’t made with that aspect ratio in mind. we have one program here that insists upon being in a maximized window–always. a lot of wasted space, even on a 16:9. that user has two 5:4 instead and loves that setup.

Having two has definitely helped me, because most of my job is comparing what this thing says to what that thing says, but any more than that sounds like a bit much.

As someone who never understood multiple monitors, one day I just got a second one and now I feel working without a second monitor is limiting.

Having said that, I can’t see a use for a third monitor at all (not to say it’s completely useless. I’m sure some people find it useful).

Any more displays than one and its gonna fry my brain. I can only keep attention to one at a time.

Two at least. I am an accountant and constantly comparing at least two things. I have never been able to work on a laptop, need the multiple screens.

If I have one that’s sufficiently big I don’t need two. 24" is usually all I need. Helps to have 20/20 vision as well and use smaller fonts.

I love having a lot of desktop real estate. Instead of flipping through multiple desktops, I can keep everything in eve view all day long.

Dude either needs to streamline to two monitors, or pick up iRacing.

Only reason I’d have 3 monitors is for racing sims, but even then I usually use VR anyway.

Two is fine for most.

My boss has three two! I have two and it annoys me. I would rather have one large screen but I don’t rank enough to get one at work.

My workstation at home only limits me to two, once I get a bigger space I’m going for three.

Yea it’s decent, but what really takes the cake is that it’s far better than what you can get at McDonald’s and (at least in my area) it’s cheaper than McDs

Their double double combo is like 10$ compared to McDs pitiful BigMac combo at like 13

It’s not worth flying across the country for like some do, but if I have a choice between McDs or In-N-Out…

I remember when In-n-Out first came to Texas, and the line to try it had the entire highway backed up for miles; People couldn’t even fit in the parking lot, and the line had literally backed up all the way up the highway exit and onto the highway.

Tried it like a month later, and wasn’t impressed; If I just want a fast food burger, Whataburger is better.

It’s a lot better than other fast food burgers. But it’s a pretty basic, straight forward burger. It’s fresh ingredients, done simply. And it’s why everyone loves it.

I know of a few places near me where they serve nearly identical burgers, and I love those too.

For the viewer: Playing take a lot of energy, watching is more passive. Especially like horror games that raise your blood pressure / heartrate. Also, not everyone can afford games, some are console only, and even PC games have hardware requirements that people don’t have, because people either have a potato computer, or just have smartphone only. Also, games are hard, watching a streamer dying is kinda funny.

For the streamer: Socialization (even tho its kinda one-sided, they can still read comments / live chat), and most importantly, money.

It’s not just to watch the game, it’s to watch/listen to the streamer. It’s like a talk show.

It’s not just for the game, but the narration.

I only follow a handful of streamers, I really don’t care what games they play. What’s important to me is that they’re entertaining, not too loud like 90% of U.S streamers.

I especially like streamers who play with their friends, I find solo streamers boring and compensate by being loud and shouting all the time.

Sometimes I just don’t have the time to play so I leave a streamer on in the background while I work and look at that screen every once in a while to catch s glimpse of a game that’s nostalgic and comfortable.

When an artist is the first to inspire a movement, history tends to look back on them differently. There’s a related trope that covers this phenomenon - “Seinfeld is Unfunny.” From that page:

There are certain works that you can safely assume most people have enjoyed. These shows were considered fantastic when they were released. Now, however, these have a Hype Backlash curse on them. Whenever we watch them, we’ll cry, “That is so old” or “That is so overdone”.

The sad irony? It wasn’t old or overdone when they did it, because they were the first ones to do it. But the things it created were so brilliant and popular, they became woven into the fabric of that work’s niche. They ended up being taken for granted, copied, and endlessly repeated. Although they often began by saying something new, they in turn became the new status quo.

Nirvana is one of the artists mentioned under the “Music” examples on that same page. The point is, they were groundbreaking when they came out, but they changed the music scene so much and have inspired so many similar artists that their original work has become overshadowed by the successors they helped create.

Your experience is common and it’s okay not to enjoy their music, but the key to remember is that without Nirvana helping to pave the way, other grunge bands may not have risen to the popular level they reached.

I respect Nirvana tremendously for the movement they ushered in. I cannot enjoy most of their music, however.

Foo fighters is a bit better, but I admit I pick and choose.

Having read Kurt’s journals, they wanted to be mid. They were capitalizing on the success of other bands and implementing their styles. They weren’t trying to change the world, they just wanted to get paid to make decent music

Nirvana was ok. They are the ones credited with killing the hair metal genre.

But honestly Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, and Stone Temple Pilots…they are all 10 times better than Nirvana ever was.
