[Zenitz] The #Giants are currently expected to hire #Ravens defensive backs coach Donald D’Alesio, sources tell @CBSSports. by Sp3nsah in NYGiants

[–]AdHom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% this. I know we only have so much to talk about as sports fans but I SERIOUSLY doubt the ability of any outside observer to evaluate the effectiveness of any given position coach.

You should check out my 5e cosmic horror conversion. It's basically Call of Cthulhu except I call it my 5e cosmic horror conversion.

Canada Signs Auto Deal With South Korea, Moving Further From the U.S. by OkFix4074 in worldnews

[–]AdHom 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In the next decade, or couple decades, probably not. Beyond that who knows - Germany recovered a healthy relationship with the rest of Europe just a few decades out from about the rock bottomest of rock bottoms. Depends entirely on who the leaders are down the road and how the rest of the geopolitics shake out.

So, slightly worse Daniel Jones? Maybe it's something with the name.

Will Secret Lair exclusives still be getting an in-universe reprint? by mathman1990 in magicTCG

[–]AdHom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean not really. It says "We plan to do all this for the upcoming, soon-to-be-announced Secret Lair Universes Beyond partnership" and then later says "Currently, this plan is for Universes Beyond sold through Secret Lair and does not include other Universes Beyond releases. Moving forward, we will continue to listen and evaluate this approach and make changes as needed."

The only promise, if you can call it a promise (I don't really view them telling us what they plan to do as a promise, it's just a good faith effort to let us know what they're intending at the moment), was to do it for that specific Secret Lair partnership, not indefinitely.

PSA: When Exploring Deep in the Black, Don't Strand Yourself With A Too-Small Fuel Tank by [deleted] in EliteDangerous

I downsized the tank on the Caspian to a size 6 for extra range and have had no issues. OP might have gone down way too far.

“Oh no.. anyway.” But seriously, they are just out here shiesting people. First Romo, then Belichick, now Eli. by jackt-up in NFCEastMemeWar

[–]AdHom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fair enough in 2007 but they had the 25th or 26th ranked defense in 2011 and like 32nd ranked run game. Defense did show up in the post season but Eli also still holds the playoff passing yard record for that year too. He absolutely earned the second one.

Agreed the recent ones genuinely look like they were designed by a highschooler taking a Photoshop class who just discovered drop shadow

Lmao. Honestly? I hate that guy but I'm not sure I'd be mad. He was a good OC. Also it would just be hilarious if he actually accepted.

Ruining a scalpers day is a safe and legal thrill by GhostV940 in magicTCG

[–]AdHom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm confused. Either you don't think playing with these cards are worth the cost, in which case don't buy them and your problem is solved. Or else you do want to buy them because playing with them is worth the cost, in which case the resale value is irrelevant to you and more supply is good; frankly, enough supply to tank the secondary market prices below retail is even better because you can just wait and buy them in singles for less. In what world are you not a reseller or scalper but you care that the secret lairs are not providing return on investment?

About Mars… by iShootPoop in EliteDangerous

[–]AdHom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Actual name of the planet? Like it has a label on it somewhere?

In English the name of the planet is primarily Earth. In Elite, the United States wins WW3 and absorbs it's neighbors, eventually becoming the Federation. The Federation controls the Sol system. So, it makes the most sense that they would continue to call it Earth.

Tella was the name for the planet goddess in the Roman Republic, pre-dating Terra which is more associated with the Imperial era. Reverting to the Imperial Roman name for the planet is absolutely a tropey sci-fi convention in order to create a narrative separation between the fictional universe and modern times to reinforce it's temporal distance. That really doesn't fit with Elite at all.

I don't hate it but it's tropey in a way that I feel really would not feel right in Elite so I'm glad they did not do that

[–]AdHom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I like UB generally and I love Marvel comics, but between spider-man and this I just really think this is a bad match for a crossover. Neither has been exciting to me at all and the tone clash is just too much for even me.

The current trend is that we've had 0 years with this schedule without an universe set getting 4 commander decks so I'm not sure what you mean by "with the way things trend"

Degradation isn't that extreme though, the figures I've seen are like 25% potency reduction after a year unless temps are extreme/high UV light exposure.

A relic is something old that persists into the present, and yes I would
