Russia is facing: * 20% interest rates * 9% inflation * dropping demand for oil * increased supply from Saudi from oil to drop the price * increasing difficulty accessing any foreign currency including a big inflection point at oct 12 * a l

Not really. If a banker in China is taken down for political reasons, it’s not evidence that China is more adept at upholding banking corruption laws than the US.

Bitcoin is definitionally inefficient to mine. That’s the whole point.

All things equal, sure. But is the cost of the hotel really the thing stopping you from doing that?

Seems quite nutty to think you’d find yourself flying to Hawaii twice per year even if the housing was free

It’s not like that makes it any better. A trademark is not relevant to this either.

I agree Mozambique has a shitty flag. I don’t think we should bomb them.

A quick Google suggests they stopped offering it and moved to a 401k, not that they just canceled their existing obligations. This is generally the popular move because pensions plans create huge liabilities over time because you’re promisi

Sure, and yet it is extremely cringeworthy to think your life experience is comparable to that in a high conflict zone of the Middle East

Americans generally don’t know what the IRA is. Hezbollah is actively involved in anti western terrorism. That is perhaps why Americans think they’re terrorists.

The issue is not that weapons are shown. The issue is that it’s a fist holding an assault rifle. It’s very plainly a call for violent action. And frankly I think it’s kind of stupid to argue otherwise. Regardless of your opinion of the IDF,

A pension plan is guaranteed. A 401k is not. A pension is theoretically much better because the company must pay you the money even if the investments didn’t work out. Contingent on the pension being there at the end of your career it’s muc

AI is a poorly defined term. That’s about the full discussion

by jncfhnb 2y ago
It’s a regression model. You don’t “need” AI for anything. But using ML to identify thresholds for decision making is extremely useful. I don’t like calling everything AI, but I’m even more irritated by people that don’t understand the valu

If you’re talking about California that’s just embarrassing

They have an assault rifle in their flag. Make no mistake about their purpose.

You don’t live in a society where the guy next to you at the supermarket is actively involved in terrorism strikes against the other country. These kinds of comparisons are frankly just nonsense and so devoid of context

I would argue it’s even better role play if players don’t know things though. If you meet some followers of Bane, a player who knows the lore will probably deem them to be a bad guy. If they have no idea, they will roll knowledge to see if

The lore itself is kind of dumb. That’s ok. Most TTRPG stories will be pretty dumb. They can still be awesome. Imo plying your own dumb story is a lot better than someone else’s dumb story. I would say it’s not ideal for different players t

Sure. But is Ragathiel any better than Bjorn’er, the god of rapturous dance that I just made up? Imo, no. If someone wants to choose a predefined god, sure. If someone wants to make one up? Also sure. The only thing I’d be fairly vocal abou

I find this surprising. I can barely get my players to learn the rules properly. I struggle to imagine people making lore accurate characters. One, because it’s a lot to learn. Two, because it’s specific and kind of dumb. We just use dnd ca

I’m amused that people use the actual canon and not just asserting a god into existence

It wouldn’t actually make a difference right? Like it would be world changing for the life in the cave in the sense that it is short lived and fiercely competitive, but it would quickly return to the original balance, no?

No they don’t. There’s actually been a huge problem in that many people come to the border because they’ve been told it is open, when in fact, it is not. The myth that it is open is amplified by the American right constantly claiming it is
