MrFlamey, to asklemmy in What's some really unpopular opinion you have?

I think so much about it is awesome (visuals, design of ships and sets, music, etc.) but maybe due to lack of repeated exposure to the movies as a child I don’t feel much about them. The modern movies were especially meh, since they all feel like they are trying to recapture the feeling of people who saw the originals in the cinema in the late 70s and 80s, but without doing anything new. I did quite enjoy the Fallen Order game and will probably play the follow up at some point too though.

MrFlamey, to mildlyinfuriating in Sure buddy just take as many spots as you need

Needs a 2x2 sticker added to the back to show how many parking spaces he occupies.

Dude, you misspelled “burn”

MrFlamey, to news in Young Activists to Biden: Change Course on Gaza — or Lose in 2024

You think it will get better if you just ignore it? You think it will be better if Trump is back in Power?

Sadly it seems that American democracy is voting for the lesser of two evils, but if you don’t vote at all you will be stuck with the worse of two evils for a long time, and I am worried about the consequences of that for both America and the rest of the world.

MrFlamey, to news in Young Activists to Biden: Change Course on Gaza — or Lose in 2024

Please vote Not Trump again. I can’t deal with another 5 years of seeing that twat in the headlines unless he is having his fraudulent businesses dismantled and being sent to jail in those headlines.

MrFlamey, to world in Putin Unleashes Record Bombing in Ukraine as the World Watches Gaza

Fuck Putin, the warmongering cunt. I hope Ukraine continues to get Western support and can kick Russia out of their country, however slim the chances might be looking right now. Russia extending its influence and things gradually going back to business as usual, only for them to do it again in another 10 years won’t be good for any Western democracies.

Haven’t really been following the Israel/Palestine thing much to be honest, but it would be nice if people would stop killing one another. Also really sucks that it benefits Putin.

MrFlamey, to android in At least 200+ desktop extensions to be available on Firefox Android in December

I uninstalled it because of this bug. Just kept occurring again and again on two separate phones to the point it was totally useless. I hope they fix it.

MrFlamey, to unpopularopinion in Soggy cereal is better than hard cereal

I think there is a sweet spot when the cereal has absorbed a bit of milk and softened, but still has a little crunch, and the milk has absorbed some flavour from the cereal. However, if you leave it too long, you’ll end up with a soggy mass, which is shit. It also depends on the cereal a bit. I think nice muesli or granola usually needs a bit more softening than a lighter cereal like corn flakes or coco pops, but the latter do benefit from turning the milk sweet or chocolatey when left to soak.

Of course, like everything else in this world, we are destined to fight over it as if there are only two choices; maximum soggy and maximum crunchy.

MrFlamey, to fucksubscriptions in Why is this OK?

Interesting. I’ll have to ask someone about it. To be honest I just reacted with a rant immediately without reading the terms. I should check the terms next time.

MrFlamey, to fucksubscriptions in Affinity Photo: Calling out a hero in this subscription dystopia

I used Adobe Illustrator from time to time, didn’t really like it, and was not willing to pay $20/month for software I rarely use. Normally I’d use a foss app, but I tried using Inkscape and unfortunately it wouldn’t run very well on my machine, so I bought Affinity Designer.

Affinity is just as good as Adobe in many ways, runs really smoothly and I liked it so much that when they announced V2 (paid upgrade, but at launch had a nice big discount), I just paid for the full suite as it was such a great deal, even though I’m unlikely to even use publisher or the iPad apps that all came with it. Definitely worth the money, and happy to support a company using the traditional buy once own forever model.

MrFlamey, to technology in YouTube is now fully blocking ad blockers around the world

Or mine on Vivaldi. It was showing me the notice the other week, but seems to have stopped now. Either they are now time limiting youtube before the ad blocking thing comes back, or uBlock upped the ante.

MrFlamey, to fuckcars in [discussion] Who thought this was a good idea?

Checking the Wikipedia article on the Toyota Hilux reveals that ~1995 was peak pickup truck, and everything since then has been objectively a step in the wrong direction. I know this community is Fuck Cars, but this version was indestructible and actually amazing for the kind of shit people bought them for. Not many people would buy this to drive the kids to school or do the weekly shop. Actually, we had one when I was a kid, and I would ride in the back sometimes (just on farm roads in the UK) and it was awesome.

The popularity of pickups now is just insane. I can’t understand why they’ve gotten so massive, and are owned by so many people who are clearly not using them for any work type purpose.

MrFlamey, to nostupidquestions in Does anyone drink instant coffee anymore?

Yes. When I can’t be arsed to grind beans and boil water. Doesn’t taste as good, but it’s fine with a little cookie or something.

MrFlamey, to politics in Trump Vows to Ban Immigrants Who ‘Don’t Like Our Religion’

He can vow all he likes, but 1. he’s a lying sack of shit and 2. he’s never getting anywhere near the White House again, so who cares what he says?

MrFlamey, to mildlyinfuriating in Elon offers Wikipedia $ 1 billion to change their name to Dickipedia

I offer Elon $1 to change his name to Doge McCumStain. I hope he will accept my generous offer.
