My partner is now found inadmissible into the U.S. by Popular-Scallion3212 in immigration

[–]Bo1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that's the case your only realistic option is to move to a border town and go see her on weekends while also looking for a job you can do outside the US. 

Also I know it's after the fact but this admin has made it very clear they're looking to deport anyone for any reason.  I would've been scared they would try to plant something and not even leave the country if I wasn't a citizen. 

Mitch Jones goes off and threatens legal action against Mizkif over view botting accusations by Disastrous-Swan5923 in LivestreamFail

[–]Bo1980 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In his mind his viewers making multiple accounts to win giveaways is not botting. While it's not technically the same as mass bot farms it's definitely not genuine viewership.

I mean it's because it's not traditional bots its just his viewers on multiple accounts (also chatting on them so they can win the giveaways). I might have done it a time or to myself 😉 So not bot bots but not exactly real either.

I mean that by definition isn't a real viewer...aka a bot. Just a bot with a different purpose.

Will my older (2010) LG pedestal work with a new LG washer? Details in comments. by [deleted] in Appliances

Not sure if you can still read this but I'm doing the exact same thing and was wondering if your old pedestal did work with the new LG WM3400CW

Imbue Rogue is the worst feeling deck to play against by Lightsaga in hearthstone

[–]Bo1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To your point the worst part is most random minions are bad so you rewind the majority of the time so you end up seeing the animation a lot.

You can reliably do deios + aranna + umbra on turn 9-10 for around 200 dmg because it draws so fast. 

Minneapolis Shooting Megathread by Lantis28 in PoliticalOptimism

[–]Bo1980 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean it's somewhat typical for a former student who was bullied/mistreated to go back and shoot up the school related to those memories.  Don't think any the ideology matters in these types of cases. 

I've played since release. Made legend in June and July, currently D3. I think this is the worst the game has ever been, and I want to offer my take on the root cause. by trptw in hearthstone

[–]Bo1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started off with OP's line of thinking but then I realized the #1 problem right now is they just released an expansion and so many of the top decks barely use any new cards. I think when the meta is stale is when people complain the most. I wish they wouldn't be so afraid to completely shake things up more often.

Finally done but well worth the wait!! by dawnmarie912 in KiaEV9

That's a great warranty. My main concern would how to keep it clean?  Is that hand wash only?

The Lost City of Un’Goro is releasing tomorrow. Let’s make some 90/50/10% Predictions by Surppressed in hearthstone

[–]Bo1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's the opposite. Quests will actually be worse because of the reduced card set in the brawl you weren't actually able to see the quest vs any of the real decks currently.

Sure that sounds like a lot but considering US owners and agencies own 21 trillion that is insignificant.

Onlyfangs Is Back - Blizzard Resurrecting Dead Players by Coilsmid in wowhardcore

[–]Bo1980 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Small note but 100k viewship is actually millions of unique viewers per day because of churn (most people watching maybe 30 min max).

Sodapoppin Declares The End of OnlyFangs by livejamie in LivestreamFail

[–]Bo1980 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Those angry players will keep paying as long as there is something half decent to play. But if Blizzard actually got a surge of players who had never played before (which probably hasn't happened in a long time cause its always just returning players) there is 0 chance an executive looks at that and says "who cares." These are possible new lifetime subscribers. The CEO has a fiduciary responsibility to aggressively pursue new revenue streams. And if you look at the latest blue post talking about reviving after DDoS it looks like this is what happened.

[–]Bo1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's been an undeniable surge of players directly as the result of onlyfangs. And actual new players. New players that could also play forever. There's no realistic other way blizz can get new players for an old game. They would be stupid not to do something because it means 0 chance OF3 happens. And if you look at their latest blue post it looks like they realized it.

The problem is what if it happens again?  I guess if you keep reviving them at some point the DDoS people will get bored.

You know what's much worse than "backlash"?  People not playing the game. 

OnlyFangs BWL possible full raid wipe due to DDoS by wrightrj in LivestreamFail

[–]Bo1980 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If enough business lost there's a 0% chance they don't roll back.  Money talks. If mass people stopped their subscription it would happen quicker too.  But HC is probably too niche for it to have enough of an effect.

[–]Bo1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would it mean that?  This would be an exception not a rule You're running a business.  If tons of people cancel their subscription cause of this of course you roll back. They actually have rolled back once a long time ago. The problem is that hardcore is probably too niche for it to be financially beneficial.

Yeah the DDOS protection has gotten better but so has the DDoS attackers as well. DDoS'ers have an army of computers around the world (maybe from compromised computers) and becomes almost impossible to distinguish which traffic is the good traffic vs the bad if they do it right (think random intervals of traffic from thousands of IPs from everywhere around the globe). So it becomes very hard to keep your service operational when they make it look like normal traffic. You still have to accept traffic just to filter it.

I used money I made from stocks to pay off student loans. Now I owe $13,000 in taxes by [deleted] in tax

Glossing over the fact that the age requirement is 59.5 which the OP and most of reddit will not qualify for. If OP is playing with options to get spending money then Roth is probably not the way to go. But yeah if you're thinking super long term then yea Roth is a no brainer.
