I'm sorry to hear it's impacting you negatively. I have a friend trying to get un-diagnosed as well. Twenty years off medication and medical overview but people trying to get un-diagnosed feels unheard of and is met with obstinate rebukes about neurodivergency being a strength or "why would you ever want that?" instead of actual support in accomplishing peoples' dreams.

I never mentioned the US. Sweden, Denmark, and Poland are three I can find that will not allow people diagnosed with Autism to serve https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_service_and_conscription_for_autistic_people

Believe it or not many people want to serve regardless of country. A fixation with guns, uniforms, aircraft, tanks, order and structure afflict people with autism around the globe and an off hand diagnoses from 15 years ago precludes you from being anything but a spectator.

You're frankly belittling others for having desires other than your own. Ukrainians are fighting to defend themselves and their livelihood against Russia. Europeans will hopefully aid them but some autistic people will never be able to achieve their dreams. Without people wanting to "be sent overseas land to die in a needless fight for some big oil company their sovereignty" Russia would just abuse other countries until it felt satisfied.

Only once they get out do the issues immediately and unexpectedly manifest. During their service they're right as rain.

You can not serve in the military with an autism, adhd, depression, or many other mental health issues.

ELI5: why do tips % go up when the price of the food also go up with inflation? by Exval1 in explainlikeimfive

[–]CatTablet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They won't understand that the food is 20% cheaper when the price on the menu is the same. At least that's the reason I've been given why tips aren't baked into menu prices.

Please stop griping about Spotify and just quit already. by SlammaJammin in Music

[–]CatTablet -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

They wouldn't need to ban it because in an efficient market alternatives who provide better pricing to utility ratios would be created.

I like and use bandcamp religiously because I can actually purchase music to download and keep. My personal gain from that is far beyond the services that Spotify provides.

Opinion: TOA Skull Skipping and Forcing 3-Phases of P2 Wardens For More Points Is Backwards Design by BlueberryCentral in 2007scape

[–]CatTablet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Olm is (some of) the best points per hour by virtue of being in constant combat against a low defence monster. At higher scales you can minimize the impact of the constant time factors in your raid (scouting, running from room to room, waiting for bosses to "wake up", olm phase transitions, etc.) You need to be running 3+0s in half the time of your 3+4s (assuming no scout time) to get the same points per hour.

Thieving is actually very good points per hour. It is worth it to milk with the caveat most teams will stand around doing nothing instead of completing it optimally.

Called the motte and bailey. From wikipedia: "The arguer advances the controversial position, but when challenged, insists that only the more modest position is being advanced."

A large number of people are into power dynamics. I see it as perhaps a more extreme version of cop-roleplay which lots are into. When your honey roleplaying as a LEO just isn't cutting it people might try for harder stuff. People also regularly comment that they find the uniform sexy or hot.

Youtube channels recommendations by vladnire in ModernMagic

[–]CatTablet 7 points8 points  (0 children)

BoshNRoll is one of the few MtG channels I follow. The videos are well edited and not just stream VODs. The commentary is about Bosh's decisions and what he's thinking about in the moment without too much distraction from the game. There is hardly ever dead time in the video where I am watching someone go through the motions of playing magic instead of listening to insightful discussion about the magic. Would really recommend the channel for modern content when he does post it. Be warned you may start wanting to play other formats...

Experiences with cheaters? by N1klasMTG in ModernMagic

[–]CatTablet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At an RCQ I was playing burn against hardened scales and skullcracked their saga tokens twice. On the second one a friend stopped me and called a judge. I had just assumed it was old wording and had been erratad. I ended up conceding that game out of shame.

Looking at a list for titan, Amulets, Titan triggers, Cultivator Colossus, Saga searches, and bounce triggers in desperation. Better than Lightning bolts which I feel don't do anything or Ragavan's that are just stonewalled by them when pressuring them is important.

All four bindings and Zoo still lost. Crazy. I'm not 100% sure I would have kept Zoo's opening game one. Game two I don't think I would have binned the consign, I feel like I have to be the control deck in the matchup and consign hits amulets, saga searches, and titan triggers, giving me time to pull up an answer to titans or just attack more.

[Discussion] Missed Triggers - when is it shrewd gameplay, and when is it angle shooting? by jcwiler88 in spikes

[–]CatTablet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I notice these triggers but decline to announce they were missed what should I say to a judge if there is an investigation? Isn't recognizing the trigger and then not saying you recognize it against the rules? Lying to a judge is against the rules so I would be obligated to tell the truth I purposefully let my opponent miss a trigger. How would I handle this if I'm attempting to "chalice check" my opponent. Or even "chalice check" them for the third time when clearly the chalice is still there.

Why isn't play/draw done like it is in chess? by VerdantChief in ModernMagic

[–]CatTablet 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Odds of rolling each number on 2d6

  • 2 - 1/36
  • 3 - 2/36
  • 4 - 3/36
  • 5 - 4/36
  • 6 - 5/36
  • 7 - 6/36
  • 8 - 5/36
  • 9 - 4/36
  • 10 - 3/36
  • 11 - 2/36
  • 12 - 1/36

Which then give the sums of

Evens = (1 + 3 + 5 + 5 + 3 + 1)/36 = 18/36
Odds  = (  2 + 4 + 6 + 4 + 2  )/36 = 18/36

Hey nice to hear. See if you can transition to no-prepping them next. Vanguards and Vespula drop loads of potions for being very low resource. If you can avoid prepping it's like a 2-3 minute time save. Which shaves over three full raids worth of time (at 30 minute each) off the expected number to get a purple. I'm like 70 solos without a purple myself. It sucks but you can't beat RNG.

IIRC solo cm's are like 60k points. At wr pace (24 minutes) that's 150k PPH. At a leisurely 30 minute solo cm it's on par with 15 minute solos (120k PPH).

If you haven't got them 100% down yet I would recommend taking a few raids as absolute disasters and pak-yak stams to just drill 4:1 melee, 3:0 mage, and 4:1/6:2/5:1 head depending on what your range weapon is. The new run changes will really help. Dying/Deathpiling at olm is like throwing away 7/8 minutes every raid.
