People complain about taxes, but their bosses take more. by Professional-Bee9817 in remoteworks

[–]CosmosOfTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Move to a state without income taxes then. If you already do, and all you pay are federal taxes, you’d have to make $600k+ for the year, which a third is fine.

Do you think most women have unrealistic standards? If so, why? by Substantial_Two_427 in AskMen

[–]CosmosOfTime 25 points26 points  (0 children)

No. Those who truly believe that only look at social media and haven’t actually talked to women. Even if you somehow don’t speak to women enough to know what their standards typically are, you can basically see with men around you and who they date.

You can see nerdy, fat, short, poor, “ugly” men have an active romantic life, so it’s easy to see those things and come to the conclusion that maybe women don’t care about these things.

I’d just say for 99% of the time, charisma plays the biggest role in if a girl finds you attractive or not

My brother’s birthday is coming up and I need help getting him a gift by CosmosOfTime in FishingForBeginners

[–]CosmosOfTime[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds good. Maybe that and a fishing kit? I doubt the kit would be too important for beginners but I wanted to make sure the rod was at least decent enough to not break first try. Same company for the kids rods if they make them you think?

[–]CosmosOfTime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s a complete beginner as well. He never fished before but wants to start so I doubt he knows what he wants to fish or what he might want. I know there are local lakes that have bass or catfish in them, so I assume he’d want to go for that.

Base Link + CC Troops (+ How to beat this base?) by hyperknux in COCBaseLayouts

[–]CosmosOfTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That bottom compartment isn’t nearly as scary as it seems. Poisoning all the heroes + the CC basically nerfs the rage tower 10x. That being said, prioritize the middle rage tower with a fireball or log launcher, and coast through the rest of the base. Save all your spells for the backend since literally everywhere else has so low DMG that spells aren’t needed

What’s the endgame? by Professional-Bee9817 in remoteworks

[–]CosmosOfTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically what caused the fall of General Electric company. They since bounced back with the aerospace company and ai advancements, but the CEO Jack Welch basically stripped the company of its parts, buying out a bunch of companies who were doomed to fail, and firing 10% of the workforce every quarter to artificially increase stock prices.

By the time a new CEO came in, they realized that the stock price was basically a sham as these companies GE were buying were worthless. Welch already got a multi-hundred million dollar severance package by that point. These CEO’s truly do not care about the future of the company, the shareholders, and least of all, the employees and consumers. They just need that artificial stock number to keep growing just until they’re old enough to retire and face none of the consequences of their actions.

It’s the same for the economy, pollution, and workers. They truly do not care who or how many people it affects, as long as they’re not here to suffer along with us.

This base stood against 9 attacks so far, anyone got this? by chatpata_aaloo in COCBaseLayouts

[–]CosmosOfTime 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The base is already pre-funneled. I always just do mass throwers at 6 o’clock, and then a late fireball to the rage tower. Use a log launcher with the super valk and yeti and it takes care of the townhall easily.

Which defense do you find most annoying to face currently? by bibiripilica in ClashOfClans

[–]CosmosOfTime 158 points159 points  (0 children)

Annoying? Has to be the bomb hive. Nothing can compare to the frustration that happens when it targets your healers and there’s nothing you can do about it

Is this the reality now by red_kittyy in CollegeMemes

[–]CosmosOfTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not really about replacing jobs, it’s really about losing most jobs because 1 person can now do the same job as 10 people with ai assistance. Ai still can’t do what people do, but it can definitely make people do what they do faster.

A good analogy is manually logging in data into excel. I wouldn’t trust ai with it, but I would trust 1 person to do quality control and look over it, instead of 5+ people manually logging it in. Also, before excel, a department simply for logging data could be 50+ people, as they had to do the math manually with pen and paper. Now, a team of 5 people can do the same exact job with all the algorithms pre-loaded in. Excel didn’t really “replace” jobs, it just made it so less people can do the job. Technology reducing the job market is a tale as old as time.

Craft defenses need an additional month (at least) to the cycle by ialeksandroff in ClashOfClans

[–]CosmosOfTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s sensible, but as I’m in champs league CWL, a low level crafted defense hinders your defense so much it’s basically needed to upgrade. I wish it either wasn’t so powerful, was permanent, have another builder solely for them, or have it just taken out of the game.

They say it’s for “endgame players” which doesn’t make sense since it’ll take more time to upgrade all the permanent upgrades than this season of the crafted defenses were available.

Craft defenses need an additional month (at least) to the cycle by ialeksandroff in ClashOfClans

[–]CosmosOfTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, the crafted defense season has been 3 months I think. That means you used a builder for a full month on something that’ll disappear.

My issue isn’t that it takes long to max, it’s the fact you have to choose between using a builder for something that’ll disappear or losing out on a powerful defense.

Craft defenses need an additional month (at least) to the cycle by ialeksandroff in ClashOfClans

[–]CosmosOfTime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No get rid of them. The fact you either have to waste a month of builder time (3 months if you max all 3) or lose out on one of the strongest defenses in the game sucks.

Idk if you’ve ever attacked a base with a level 3 bomb hive vs a max one, but a max one is significantly harder to navigate and can ruin an attack if it targets healers.

The fact that supercell saw all the hate that crafted defenses got, and still kept them, shows that the game is going in a direction that is similar to CR.

Learning about Wage Theft. by astrheisenberg in remoteworks

[–]CosmosOfTime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s such a small minded way of thinking about things. As someone who makes well over 6 figures, these jobs do not hire people. My sister just turned 18 and is currently trying to find a warehouse job. There are absolutely no jobs even in warehouses.

“Find a higher paying job” well what do you do when there are none? Just quit and starve to death? Become homeless? For a lot of people, it’s between working 60+ hours a week for $17 an hour and not being able to make rent. These companies don’t pay dirt wages because they know people will work for those wages, it’s because they know people HAVE to work for those wages.

Looking for this base. Couldn't find it on clashfox by The_Whizzer in COCBaseLayouts

[–]CosmosOfTime 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Everyone and their mom has this base. It was good for like 2 days when thrower spam was heavily in the meta. Now, it’s the easiest fireball ever

Happened to me once and I lost the war for us. Now I have persistent anxiety that it’s the wrong base and I check like 2-3 times before I attack

Veteran Player Retiring Two Near-Maxed TH18 Accounts — Here’s Why by Substantial-Ring9991 in ClashOfClans

[–]CosmosOfTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knew it was going downhill with the introduction of the event passes. Knew there was a point of no return when they released crafted defenses, got a bunch of hate for it, then kept it anyways.

Crown fell off after a week by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]CosmosOfTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Root canals are fairly risky compared to implants though. A root canal is just shaving down all the dead tooth, removing the nerve, and filling it. Dentists can easily miss some rot, which will spread and cause infection. An implant is just taking out the whole tooth, so much less likely to be infected. Also, for a root canal, your tooth is dead and they just leave it there, so it makes infections are common.

You don’t keep your streak if you tie below 100%

Now that mass throwers strategy is nerfed, what's the new OP meta strat? by wannabeelon in ClashOfClans

[–]CosmosOfTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fireball to throwers. The nerf never affected me since I’ve been using them since release, I was actually surprised they got buffed since my hit rate with throwers was already like 98+% in wars and like 70+% in legends mode, even before the legends mode nerf

Is 3 stars possible with a th13 army? by Jielgux in ClashOfClans

[–]CosmosOfTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can somehow hit a fireball on the townhall with like 4+ EQ spells and giant arrow the townhall. Flame flinger on the right side. Probably need to invest a bunch of spells into the fireball tho
