*Its

It would have to be “angels” to be their.

Bank robber. Get away driver.

Would be a good analogy.

Yes, the bank robber shot and killed the clerk.

But they are both bank robbers

Who is more evil? The one that does the act or the one that enables it?

Sleepaway Camp

Most toilet bowls are made of porcelain, which is different from plain ceramic.

I play mostly on my Xbox. I got all my games and stuff downloaded on that.

If I am playing a PC game, it would be SC2, and I don’t use steam. Haven’t since CS source.

I carry around the keyboard always with my tablet because it’s the screen protector when closed. There’s no way I’d carry a separate keyboard and play SC2 on a 7.4 inch screen, that sounds miserable.

It’s probably similar. You could just use your phone and controller. My phone screen 6.8 inches, not the best ratio, but the steamdeck is only 7.4 inches.

Like I’ve been saying, they are basically the same.

Yeah, a laptop can get left out of the equation. Tablet or phone are better.

I don’t need a docking station to hook my tablet to TV. I can even stream my tablet screen wirelessly to TV.

Carrying around the docking station goes against it being portable.

Theoretically, all I need is my tablet or phone. 1 item. The controller helps with some games.

You keep saying 3 items…and because my xbox weighs 10+ pounds.

My tablet weighs 1.6 pounds. Steamdeck is 1.48 pounds. Xbox controller weighs .63 pounds.

You’re talking about half a pound difference in weight. Tablet takes little to no space and the controller probably half of the steamdeck.

Steamdeck would be great for rides on the subway, walking, and maybe some other things where you need to be fully mobile. I get that aspect of it. Though I can easily pull out just my tablet and play a ton of games that aren’t “mobile games”

I’ve been gaming like this for longer than the steamdeck has been out. I saw the steamdeck and said “why would I want that?” And never got one.

The Xbox processes the game.

Tablet just streams screen and sends inputs from/to Xbox.

So you don’t really need an extreme tablet/phone/laptop

Im bringing my tablet/phone anywhere I’m going, so having a steamdeck would just be an extra thing to carry and worry about charging.

You can do on-screen controls that aren’t bad for some games. Otherwise, Xbox controller.

The controller in the steamdeck has to kill its battery life some. 2 extra AA batteries, and I could use my Xbox controller for weeks.

I’d rather have 4x the screen size and not have to hold it the entire time while being semi-mobile. I’m not going to walk around and play on a steamdeck, maybe some do and then that’s a plus on the steamdeck.

Steam deck is nice and I can see why people enjoy it. My thing is why more people don’t like tablet/phone/laptop gaming and talk about the steamdeck like it’s a game changer.

My tablet is basically my PC at home. I can access and do everything remotely, including gaming.

I don’t need to bring my Xbox around. Simply open the xbox app and my Xbox screen is now on my tablet anywhere I’m at.

My tablet can stream onto bigger displays or even stream my PC.

You don’t need to carry around the console

I can use my phone or tablet as a portable screen for my Xbox

Can even use it as a portable screen for my PC

Why would I want a steam deck vs having a bigger tablet screen and a controller I don’t have to stare at?

Portability, but the steamdeck is as portable as my tablet if it can’t fit it into a pocket.

You can take 1% of anything, then multiply as well.

Like 7% of 15.50

1% is .155 (10% is moving decimal to left once, 1% is twice)

.155 × 7 = 1.083

That’s a hard one to do in your head, but .155 × 7 is easier to do on paper than 15.50 × .07.

Say something is 49.99 and 7% off. 1% is .5. .5 ×7 = 3.5. You could probably do that in your head. Otherwise, good luck trying to do 7% of 50 in your head.

Edit: Hmm. So you could also do 3.5% of 100 instead of 7% of 50. That would have been the easiest way to do that one.

Bonus: I thought I’d mention 11s. They are my favorite thing in math because they are so easy and you seem like a math wizard to anyone.

Say you have 42 × 11. That’s 462.

You just split apart the 4 and 2, add 4 and 2, then stick it in the middle.

Something like 67 × 11. Where the digits add >10.

6…7, 6+7=13, 6+1…3…7. So 737.

You can remove the decimal then add it back at the end

15.50

Is

1500

Half would be 775

Or 7.75

Jake being bad at acting could have been a shtick

Like “Jake you’re famous now! We need you to do commercials!” Jake “But I can’t act!”

libertery mutual, a company that is referenced in the meme, even does this with a real actor that acts like he can’t act.

Jake from state farm was supposed to be a normal dude. Him not being an actor probably makes his delivery that much better

Replacing Jake with a professional actor seems wrong. It’s no longer “Jake”

I saw it as

1. Stick figure in bed
2. Blowjob
3. Piledriver
4. Rest
5. Blowjob
6. Resume piledriver

I thought it was funny when i first saw it. I see the whole car thing now after reading the comment. So maybe the stick figure never leaves his house and just gets blowjobs. They could be a sex worker that takes money for letting other stick figures suck their stick. And they are waiting for their next client in-between. Or the stick figure in the first frame is the one giving blowjobs and waiting.

How is it “taking their meastaking their measurement system and fucking it up”?

USA uses inch, feet, yard. There is small, medium, large.

Metric has centimeters, decimeters, meters. There is small, medium, large.

Everyone knows a yard and a meter are about the same. Everyone also knows centimeters are tiny.

When someone who doesn’t use the metric system thinks of how tall they are, they use feet. Medium.

I’m 2 yards tall. Someone that’s 5 feet tall is 1 2/3 yards. 5 1/2 feet is 1.83 yards.

You wouldn’t use yards to measure a person. You’d use feet.

When you ask someone that doesn’t use metric how tall someone is they have to pick between cm or m. Most people couldn’t tell you in yards so how do you expect them to do it in meters?

If they just had to think in feet and then ×3 to get decimeters, it would be easy to convert. Maybe even have a decimeter ruler.

5.5 feet is 16.5 dm with quick math. Or 1.65m. Truly, it is 1.68m.

3 decimeters is equal to 1 foot.

1 yard is equal to 9 decimeters.

Just multiply by 3

I’m 6 ft tall. If someone asks me how tall I am in metric, I just say 18 decimeters.

An American football field is 100 yards, or 300 feet. 900 decimeters.

An 8ft board is 24 decimeters

Really not that hard to convert. Sadly no one that uses the metric system uses decimeters for some reason.

A standard doorway in US is 3 ft. Has to be that for code. 91.4 cm or .91 meters. If you used 9 decimeters it would only be .5 inch off.

You round to 90 cm you’d be .5 inch off. If you round to .9 meters you’d be almost .5 inch off.

If the metic system was shown to the US as decimeters, they would be on board more.

It’s like a large trading card that you can use to play music

Waterboy is a must

Iron Maiden and Slayer are vastly different

1 centiyard is about equal to 1 centimeter

1 miliyard is 3 milifeet

1 kiloyard is 3 kilofeet

It would be the same as the metic system having something like a “hand”

That if you wanted to express 1/3 of a meter you could just call it 1 hand. 2/3 meter would be 2 hands.

If you were using this metric system and knew that something had to be two hands long. You’d simply call it 2 hands instead of .66 meters or 66 centimeters.

If something had to be 2.5 hands long it would be .825 meters or 82.5 centimeters

Meter and yard are both random established lengths. Using miliyards or millimeters is exactly the same.

US customary units just have smaller unit names you can call them if it is convenient. If you never wanted to use anything but yards like the metric system does meters, it’s possible. Don’t want to use miles? Then megayards.

I do think 1 simple system that everyone uses is needed and the metric system is simple.

But if stupid Americans can use the “difficult” system, it can’t be too hard.

Only doesn’t change anything.

You can only buy 3 items when it says “only 3 items available”

Now if no one buys the only 3 items and Amazon gets 3 more in stock. They only have 6 items to sell. You can only buy 6 items at that time.
