How am I supposed to meet girls when I feel like even looking at them is disrespectful? by asexist-throwawayin OneY

[–]Dax420 -1 points0 points ago

And people say feminism isn't damaging to men. Here we have a poor kid who feels guilty even looking in the same direction as a female.

Look man, just take all that bullshit about "not being sexist in any possible way" and throw it out the window. It's a giant load of crap. If you use the feminist definition of sexism you can't even get out of bed without being sexist, due to something call "the patriarchy" that makes you automatically guilty for owning a penis.

Here is the actual definition of sexism, from Wikipedia:

Sexism, also known as gender discrimination or sex discrimination, is defined as prejudice or discrimination based on sex;

So there you go. Are you hiring for a job and decide not to hire someone because they are a women? No? Well then congratulations, you aren't being sexist.

Looking at, or "hitting on" a women does not make you sexist. Period. End of story. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200.

Yeah, that's the back of the place.

It's actually pretty damn good.

What is the saddest episode of a comedy sitcom that you have ever seen? by napes22in AskReddit

[–]Dax420 15 points16 points ago

It was on TV on Monday. Everyone remembers the part where Hawkeye realized the mother killed her own baby but I always found the scene at the end where the musician's that Charles taught to play classical music die and he smashes his record to be the saddest part of that episode. Incredible TV. Still relevant 30 years later.

Why is riding down more difficult than riding up? by lurwin motorcycles

[–]Dax420 1 point2 points ago

The effect is even more amplified on a dirt bike. You ever watch those "hill climb" videos? Notice how you never see anyone going back down?

So many times I've been flying up a steep twisty trail thinking to myself "this is really gonna suck on the way home".

I can't tell if my dad is trying to help me, or keep me from moving out. by Speak_Softlyin relationships

[–]Dax420 0 points1 point ago

Ok, so there is a huge difference between teaching your child important life lessons, and controlling behavior.

Teaching you kid to save money = good

Teaching your kid to research a big purchase = good

Telling your kid what kind of car they are going to buy with their own money = RED FLAG

This whole part is actually kind of frightening:

When I could finally purchase a car (no loan involved), it took about 5 months to find the perfect car. My dad did his research- decided on what would be the best older car with the best mpg, and the price it should be.

Read that. Your dad did his research. He decided what car would be best. That is not cool. You will never learn to be your own person if you are not allowed to make your own mistakes.

Do you know what my first car was? A giant lifted Jeep with huge mud tires and a 5.7L Corvette V8 engine. It got 12 miles to the gallon and cost me over $10k in repairs in the 5 years I owned it for. It was a terrible purchase and you know what? I learned from my mistake. My second car got 40 miles to the gallon and I've had to do no maintenance other than oil changes. 30 years from now when you and I are both in the market for a new car is your father going to be around to pick your new car for you? Probably not. Will I remember the hard learned, expensive lesson of my first car? Damn right.

You are 25, an adult. You should definitely take your father's advice, but take it as advice and not rules that must be followed. If you find a condo that you fall in love with and it doesn't match your father's criteria exactly you should go for it. Be your own person!

Pregnant family member has possibly been using marijuana and/or pills during her pregnancy. Should I report it? And how? by throwawayindianain relationships

[–]Dax420 -1 points0 points ago

And just for clarification, I don't mean that I've only spoken to her through Facebook - I've spoken to her on the phone and a couple of times (very briefly) in person, but I've seen the other things she posted on Facebook.

People like you are the worst.

You've barely seen this woman in person, you have zero evidence of drug use other than "she was extremely giggly" and you want to call CPS on her.

We aren't terribly close due to her being a generally unpleasant person for the last couple of years

Right, so you don't like this person and have decided to get all up in her business and attempt to ruin her life. Please go take a long walk off a short pier.

Update 2: Help! Is My Boyfriend a Pedophile? by [deleted]in relationships

[–]Dax420 0 points1 point ago

why on earth would you post here a THIRD time with information that only warrants further criticism?

Remember the post where the woman sent a million text messages, and just couldn't help herself from sending more and more and getting crazier and crazier?

That's what we have right here.

I'm Buying A POV Cam and I Would Like Rideit's Opinion, by TGoransonin motorcycles

[–]Dax420 -1 points0 points ago

ContourRoam image sensor = 5MP

GoPro HD Hero2 image sensor = 12MP

That alone should tell you what camera you want. But if you need more evidence, look at how many accessories there are available for the GoPro compared to the Contour.

[–]Dax420 -1 points0 points ago

The only negative I can think of is that if you don't like the fisheye effect from the lens you our SOL.

Get a copy of Adobe After Effects and you can easily apply a filter to the videos that removes the fish-eye effect. You end up losing the very "corners" of the video, as it stretches it back out, but the final result is quite nice.

Dual sport or street bike for my first? by RegularRaptorin motorcycles

My DRZ400sm is fine on the highway. 70mph sustained speed is no problem at all.

To the guys: when you wolf-whistle at ladies, do you think you're paying them a compliment they should appreciate? by 5minuteconsultin AskReddit

[–]Dax420 -9 points-8 points ago

So the message here is that men are not allowed to complement women, because the woman might be insecure and neurotic.

Lovely.

As the other poster above said, it's hereditary angioedema. Try asking a real doctor instead of reddit...

Anyone who has hotgrips on a drz, I could use some help? by fetchitin supermoto

[–]Dax420 0 points1 point ago

I've got a 2006 DRZ400sm and my hands get quite cold on the longer rides. I was thinking of going heated grips, but now I'm thinking that barkbusters with a large wind deflector might be a better way to go.

I think your 2nd link is just part of the overall program in the 1st link. I'd highly suggest you call up BCIT and talk to someone there about what you want to do and how long you want to be in school for.

The camera was fully engulfed by the fireball. Next time I will put it a bit further away.

Procedure for making a 2D Platformer by Flamefuryin gamedev

[–]Dax420 -1 points0 points ago

Do you like Flash?

Kongregate has a great tutorial series that will walk you through the whole process of creating a side scrolling shooter game. You can then very easily use the same process to make it into a platformer. I used their tutorials to make a top-scrolling puzzle/maze game and it was quite easy to take the concepts and re-arrange them to do something different.
