Characters in dangerous circumstances don’t follow their instinct to make logical safety precautions their number 1 priority.

Wether it is leaving guns lying around instead of keeping them on their body at all times, not reloading a guns magazine when they have a chance (it is more of a thing in the books but Reacher drives me nuts with this, he will pick up two guns and literally pick the one with the smaller mag that he already half emptied because he "knows that it works" MY BROTHER IN CHRIST LOAD THE BIGGER MAG INTO IT THEN), not making sure someone is dead, not just shooting the guy when given the chance, having conversations in places / moments where they shouldn’t, stubbornly refusing to listen to the more qualified person…

It’s basically the opposite of plot armor where heroes constantly take stupid or unnecessary risks or just turn into clumsy idiots because the plot needs them to be captured, hurt or killed.

BIDA weil ich IRL Streams absolut scheiße finde?

Habe grade mitbekommen, dass HoneyPuu auf der Zeil in Frankfurt eine Anzeige kassiert hat, weil sie in einem Douglas gefilmt hat.

Habe da kurz drüber nachgedacht und bin zu dem Schluss gekommen, dass ich die Frau, die sie angezeigt hat, eigentlich total verstehe.

Auch wenn eine Anzeige vielleicht etwas hart ist, will ich eigentlich auch nicht in irgend einem Livestream oder Video sein. Ich weis, im öffentlichen Raum darf erst einmal gefilmt werden, solange man keine einzelnen Personen filmt. Diese Regeln wurden aber ja festgelegt, als Filmen noch hieß, dass man da mit einem mindestens Schuhkarton großen Kasten auf der Schulter und im Zweifel einer ganzen Crew, durch die Stadt läuft. Also weis jeder das da gefilmt wird und es passierte auch nicht zu häufig, man konnte es also leicht umgehen. Jetzt kann jeder Dulli mit einem Smartphone nicht nur videos machen, was ja halb so schlimm ist, die kann man ja blurren, sondern halt auch streamen.

Also ehrlich gesagt fände ich es ganz nett, auch nicht in der Öffentlichkeit, von tausenden Leuten digital beobachtet zu werden, die das dann ja auch clippen und speichern können. Wir reden hier ja auch nicht von einem Konzert oder sowas wie dem Oktoberfest, wo man davon ausgehen kann das Bilder und videos gemacht werden, sondern vom ganz normalen Einzelhandel.

TL;DR Viele diese IRL streams sind absolute Rattenscheiße, macht das halt an Orten wo die Leute damit rechnen aber doch nicht in der Innenstadt und in Läden und gebt euch offensichtlich als Live oder Filmend zu erkennen!!!

Was meint ihr? Bin ich da ein altmodischer Alman boomer, weil mich das stört oder versteht ihr worauf ich hinaus will?

Schreibt mir doch einfach was ihr wollt!

Wenn ich nicht ans Handy gehe, wird das einen Grund haben und da bringt es auch nicht es direkt nochmal zu versuchen! Entweder kann oder will ich grade nicht dran gehen! Schreib mir einfach eine WhatsApp um was es geht und wenn es wichtig ist, rufe ich zurück oder schreibe halt! Genau so kacke wie einfach nochmal anrufen, sind so Nachrichten wie "Hallo" oder "Hi" SCHREIB DOCH WAS DU WILLST, BIST DU DUMM?!

You should not tell your partner everything and you should not let them go through your phone (and vice versa)

If you have friends, chances are you share their secrets. Sharing secrets between friends is a basic is a social contract. If I am sharing secrets with you, that should not mean that I am willing to share them with your past, current or future partner.

Besides the fact that going through other peoples phones is controlling and speaks to the lack of trust that you apparently have in your partner, it is also a invasion of privacy for all the people on the other side of your partners canyon else, including you.

I also like the culture around this has shifted and I have noticed more than once that certain people know things they really shouldn't because of the (imo) false conviction that a relationship should mean being privy to all of your partners knowledge.

I did not think this would be a 10th dentist opinion but I now have had the second person, I thought to be reasonable, advocate for complete transparency in their relationship in only a few weeks and after asking a couple of people at work about their thoughts on this, I came to the conclusion that apparently it has become quite normal to demand this type of insight into your partners and by extension his friends, lives.

Dispatch release date auf der Xbox

Ich bin, gezwungener maßen, grade auf eine X Box und ein Macbook zum zocken limitiert. Jetzt habe ich es aber tatsächlich ganz gut geschafft Spoilern zum Spiel zu entgehen, würde es aber so langsam echt gerne mal zocken. Vor ein paar Monaten heist es, im Sommer kommt es in den Gamepass, aber irgendwie findet man nichts konkreteres. Bin ich einfach blöd und habe es übersehen? Weis jemand was genaueres?

Leute die Videos posten und sich über "Hater" beschweren sollten sich aus dem Internet zurück ziehen

Es ist ein wiederkehrendes Phänomen das mir regelmäßig in den Algorithmus gespült wird: jemand dem man es irgendwo schon ansieht, versucht eher schlecht als recht Content zu machen und es ist absolut Fremdscham erregend. Die Instagram Kommentare sehen dementsprechend aus wie Sau und dann folgt noch irgendeine Ansage an "die Hater", I’m worst case in Form von einem TikTok Lipsync mit Text darüber.

Bonuspunkte wenn sie sich darin wortwörtlich auf "die Hater" beziehen.

Das ist ja quasi wie ein blutiges Steak ins Haifisch Becken werfen!

Das beweist einfach mangelnde Medienkompetenz und das diese Leute sich lieber nicht in die Öffentlichkeit stellen sollten.

Nur FYI ich verteidige nicht die Leute die da kommentieren, das sind alles Opfer, aber es ist einfach eine Realität, dass wir grade bei den älteren aber auch den sehr jungen Generationen eine Epidemie aus Leuten haben, die sich ohne jegliche Selbstreflexion und Eigenwahrnehmung im Internet zum Deppen machen, ohne die Dynamiken dahinter zu begreifen und das muss aufhören.

Society or by extension the state needs to get WAY MORE involved in raising children!

I don't even know where to start but maybe it is best to mention that I base all of this on the premise that I whole heartedly believe in utilitarianism so the "but I'm doing well as a parent" argument does not really work unless you have a reliable and enforceable way of determining the children that need non parental guidance and those who don't.

Now what do I mean by "more involved"? I mean that school should be mandatory from ages 4 to 16 and that the concept of home schooling should be criminalized (with certain exceptions of course, you shouldn't have to force your terminally ill child to sit in a regular classroom or anything). Schools should all be equal and state funded, private schools should be abolished completely.

Religion has no place in schools beyond analyzing it from an outside perspective.

School should last from the morning until the afternoon, after wich there are organized activities until the children are sent home in the evening.

It is bad enough here in germany, and what I hear from the US is shaking me to the core! We need to get real and get our shit together people! We are raising one generation of indoctrinated, undereducated dimwits after the other!

Parent have proven time and time again, that not a sufficient amount of them can deal with something like managing their kids contact with the digital world or ensuring that their child consumes good food, educational and quality media and learns essential values. And why should they be able to do so? It is not like they studied the subject or learned it as a trade! We demand people to get licenses to drive a car but not to raise a little human being? That is just crazy!

We have so many rules for everything but when someone decides to put innocent life into this world, only to then indoctrinate it into a cult, refuse to vaccinate it or raise it on the believe that it is somehow racially superior to others or some other BS, we are completely fine with that and act like you gain some divine absolute charge over that human life, just because you might have been too dumb to wear a condom? That is absolutely crazy!

I don't see a single downside for this beyond hurting individual parents egos and that can't be worth the future of our entire society, can it?

How normal are old inns, in your country?

I just noticed that I don't think I have ever seen something comparable to what I would call a "wirtschaft" in an American movie or show. I know every country in Europe has their own versions of this and I have also seen things I thought were comparable in parts of Asia but I honestly don't know any reason why places like the American midwest shouldn't have that stuff as well, yet I have never seen one in anything I have seen about modern day America.

What I'm talking about is essentially a version of tavern, like you'd know from something like KCD or Witcher, that has endured over time and somewhat adapted to more modern times while still keeping its characteristics. Here they would be called something like "Zum Löwen" (to the lion), "zum Adler" (to the eagle) or "zur Krone" (to the crown). In the alps they would most likely add the suffix "alm" to another name wich I think just identifies it as a hut on a mountain.

Here they will mostly sell classic regional food and not much will have changed about them in the last century or so, they often serve as social hubs for smaller towns, even though that is sadly slowly dying out.

STFU

When there is a speech being given or any other form of monologue, shut the fuck up! There are times during events like theatre plays, uni lectures, city council meetings or any other semi formal event, where you will get to whisper to your neighbor without any problem but if you're incapable of judging when that time has come, just keep your mouth shut! I'm not talking about little kids here either! I mean where the hell did all those people learn their manners?

I have friends who also do this and when I try to make it clear to them that other people in the room notice that they are whispering they just look at me baffled at why I would care.

It is infuriating!

Please learn to control the volume of your voice!

It is so uncomfortable to me and it is always the same people who have no sense for who it is a good time to talk. These people will "whisper" to you during a lecture and it's apparent that everyone in the room is bothered by it but they just never notice it. In restaurants, they will talk in a way that I can follow their conversation from a different table. WTF? Sometimes these people will try to gossip or talk to you about something private but they just don't notice that everyone can hear them and it's super uncomfortable! Where were you raised? On a construction side where you couldn't communicate without screaming at each other?

Not only does it make you run circles around the map and do a whole bunch of stuff (most of which is more of a annoyance than a challenge) for this idiotic family, once you’re done with all that bullshit and everyone involved owes you BIG TIME, that stupid asshole Voivode still won’t give you any way to get his shitty medallion that his idiot daughter wants for some reason, other than a wager with him. Fine. I’ll do a fucking wager, I have enough skills by that point that I can win in some discipline …BUT NO! I have to do a horse race and a fist fight! Both things myself and my Henry suck ass in. I hate horse races! I hate them so much! I never did them in witcher 3 and they are even worse in first person, especially with a controller!

The game has so many great quests that give you options for how to get to the goal you want to get to but this one is just a stupid goddamn bottle neck for me! I even poisoned the stupid horse but now that I have to race, nothing is working and I’m about to lunge my controller into the stratosphere! Aaaaaargrhrg!!!

I think I’m switching sides to the angry village mob who wants to send these goddamn ungrateful nomads to kingdom come (pun intended)!!!
