Topic	Has any actress in recent history tanked their career as fast as Gal Gadot did?
Cheese_Crackers 09/14/19 2:41:55 PM #42	DiCaprio is known for being very selective with the movies that he works on. Not that Gadot is at Leo's level, but the point stands that an actor's number of movies acted in doesn't always correspond to talent or relevance. Just look at Nicolas Cage. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.
Topic	What's a series where you should NOT play it in release order? >_>
Cheese_Crackers 09/08/19 3:10:48 PM #11	Calwings posted... Fire Emblem, because most of the games aren't connected to each other story-wise and the early games were really unpolished anyways. That's kind of the case with Tales Of. Some of the early ones are real gems but there are also plenty of stinkers. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.

Cheese_Crackers 09/08/19 2:28:35 PM #5	Nah. I saw Rogue One in theatres and I'm glad I did, but I waited for Solo and regret paying to see VII and VIII. I'll just wait although I've kind of lost interest. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.

Topic	Do you consider evolution to be 100% proven fact?
Cheese_Crackers 09/06/19 6:50:13 PM #109	DarkRoast posted... Natural selection is the theory Evolution is the observable fact that mutations are accumulated over time and this can result in activation / deactivation / gain / loss of protein function. If the question is whether empirical observations are facts, then sure. But the real debate (between scientifically illiterate and literate) has always been something different. For some reason, when it involves the existence of human beings it becomes unbelievable. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.
Topic	Do you consider evolution to be 100% proven fact?
Cheese_Crackers 09/06/19 6:41:57 PM #105	As much as anything in science can be considered 100% proven fact, which is to say, not at all. There's an enormous amount of evidence that evolution by natural selection - which, by the way, makes no attempt to explain the origins of life itself, but rather how it changes to suit its environment - happens in real life. That said, there was also an enormous amount of evidence that Newton's laws were correct, before Einstein corrected them. Now we know that Newtonian physics is a very accurate approximation under certain circumstances, but in exotic enough environments, it is no longer accurate. The same could very well happen with Darwinian evolution. As I say, his ideas are supported by much evidence today. But to consider something an immutable scientific fact is pretty unscientific. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.

Topic	Robert Downey Jr. is 2 years younger than Hideo Kojima.
Cheese_Crackers 08/30/19 9:44:06 AM #10	Kojima looks noticeably younger to me. Not that RDJ looks anywhere close to his age, but Kojima could pass for 30s or barely 40 in some photos. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.

Huh, did not know any of that, I've never read any of her books or watched any of the movies, they're too immature and more of a YA novels kind of thing.

Topic	So who's gonna finish the ASOIAF series when GRRM dies?
Cheese_Crackers 08/28/19 8:35:16 PM #12	IIRC he's on record saying that he won't name anyone and has every intention of finishing it during his lifetime. It's also kind of a fucked up thing to ask as an interviewer, so I doubt he'll say anything further until he's literally on his deathbed. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.

Topic	MythBusters' Jessi Combs Dead at 36 After "Horrific Accident"
Cheese_Crackers 08/28/19 2:17:42 PM #8	UnholyMudcrab posted... I feel like "she died doing what she loved" is a pretty hollow statement when her final moments were probably sheer horror that something was going terribly wrong. I think the intent is that plenty of people die not getting to find and practice their passion. Jessi did, which is a good thing. People are taking a positive from a tragedy. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.

Topic	Whats wrong with only eating fast food and processed food?
Cheese_Crackers 08/25/19 4:00:29 PM #39	knuxnole posted... To those that say cooking is easy: HOW? Can you name ways for someone to LEARN To cook? Also, someone to learn how to 1) Turn on a stove and know how to use it(i dunno if mine even turns on!) 2) what "pre heating" means 3) How to chop things About the chopping, this video's pretty good. The key is to have a sharp knife, because you need less force to cut food, making it actually much safer. The grip is also important - it's unintuitive but putting the tip of your finger on the flat of the blade make it easier to control, again making it safer. For this reason a bigger knife is usually better, but if you don't have one, just buy whatever you can afford. And always do the "claw" grip to avoid chopping your fingers - tuck the finger tips behind the knuckle so there's literally no way you'll cut your finger. Don't worry about the speed, just focus on taking the above safety measures. If you're wondering which specific foods you should practice chopping first, go with onions and garlic, as in the video. They're in almost every dish because they pack a lot of flavour, so the biggest time saver is to work on being comfortable chopping them. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.
Topic	Whats wrong with only eating fast food and processed food?
Cheese_Crackers 08/25/19 3:16:40 PM #15	knuxnole posted... two questions: 1) What if you don't know how to cook 2) I'm someone that HATES all vegetables(seriously, can't name one that my tastes bud will like!), is that mandatory? 1) Learn. There are many websites with meal plans and recipes to follow. 2) Almost everything is an acquired taste, especially when you are used to processed foods. Processed foods are often artificially flavoured, so their flavours are much more intense than more natural foods. If you're used to those flavours then natural foods like veggies will taste bland to you. The fix is to stop eating as much (ideally, all) processed stuff and get on the whole food train. As with anything, though, you're setting yourself up for failure if you try to change too much all at once. Make it more gradual by limiting yourself to two "cheat" foods per day or something, with the goal of eliminating them altogether. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.
Topic	What's a great movie with bad directing? What's a great movie with bad writing?
Cheese_Crackers 08/21/19 9:00:23 PM #12	joe40001 posted... It's weird because IMO writing is the most important element of a movie. Perhaps, but you can have a visually stunning movie with gorgeous sound and that might be enough to enjoy it. Sometimes its hard to distinguish which flaws stem from writing and from directing, too. Like was it Rian Johnsons idea to take a steamy shit on the franchise, or the writers, or both? --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.

Topic	What's with gaming systems always wanting to be on standby or sleep mode?
Cheese_Crackers 08/21/19 2:39:07 PM #11	Antifar posted... That initial boot up is a killer on a lot of modern games, given the prevalence of large open worlds. There's no way I would've played AC Odyssey as much as I did if I had to go through that every time I started up my Xbox. I wonder if game consoles will start using SSDs instead of hard disks. That simple upgrade has saved me so much time on my PC. The price per GB is still high but steadily going down. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.
Topic	so i was driving 70 in a 60 zone when a car behind me started flashing its light
Cheese_Crackers 08/21/19 2:37:19 PM #27	As for the speed thing, you definitely shouldn't fuck around with people like that. Just let them pass and forget about it. But it is annoying. Seems like no matter how fast you're going, someone behind you wants to go faster. And a lot of the time they'll pass me and then start going the same speed that I was going before! I think some people just don't like being behind others. Psychology or something. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.
Topic	What's with gaming systems always wanting to be on standby or sleep mode?
Cheese_Crackers 08/21/19 2:34:46 PM #8	King Rial posted... Yep. And for it to turn on and get you back into gaming as fast as possible. Because that was a big complaint from some people. They want a seemless gaming experience, where you aren't waiting around for downloads, update, patches, and loading screens. I can understand that convenience, but with the Switch if I leave it sleeping for a while it'll feel warm when I go to use it. Kind of makes me nervous. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.

Wow so instead of changing lanes to let the faster car pass you risked an accident by going even slower You showed them I've seen people post stuff like this on the Internet a lot and it always confused me. Around here, if you're on a highway with two lanes - at least all the ones I've been on - then you need to stay in the right lane unless you're passing someone. There will be signs every few hundred metres stating "keep right except to pass". In cities or highways near cities then you don't really get a choice of lane, it depends on where you're going. Is it really the case that you can switch lanes as much as you want in other places? Sounds annoying to drive that way. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.
Topic	What's with gaming systems always wanting to be on standby or sleep mode?
Cheese_Crackers 08/21/19 2:27:59 PM #1	Seems like all of the current and last gen consoles are trying to push for not actually turning the consoles off when you push the power button. What's the reason? Do designers really think it's more convenient, or is the device doing something that benefits the company when it's 'asleep'? I never minded turning off my consoles a decade ago.

Topic	Spider-Man out of the MCU, Sony and Marvel unable to reach deal
Cheese_Crackers 08/20/19 4:38:32 PM #22	ocelot51 posted... It's a funny bit of hindsight. Spiderman itself was a groundbreaking movie in the superhero genre so before that superhero films had no future. There's no way Marvel could have predicted the lack of Spiderman being so grievously felt in the MCU. They made the right choice at the time, but it was wrong in the long run. The MCU as we know it wouldn't exist if Marvel had kept the film rights to Spider-Man and the X-Men. No way in hell would they gamble with an Iron Man movie if they didn't have to. I'll be heartbroken if no deal is reached in the future because Holland's Spidey movies have been amazing additions to the MCU. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.

Topic	Is it silly to believe that humans have souls?
Cheese_Crackers 08/19/19 6:16:58 PM #35	RoboLaserGandhi posted... If it's not testable by science then that is synonymous with "not real". I don't think you get what science is. It's an explanation of reality. If something inherently "can't be explained", congratulations, it isn't real. No need to be condescending. I'm perfectly clear on what science is. I disagree that "testable by science" equates to "real". Sounds like you aren't open to being convinced otherwise though. But for anyone else reading that's interested, I don't believe in the supernatural at all. I am just lead to believe from my personal experiences that my human experience cannot be understood by other humans through scientific means. --- Though the fear of death is a common one, the fear of life is a more rational one.
