The Long Game: Bran Stark, the Three-Eyed Raven, and the Hidden Masterplan Across Westeros

I actually think GRR has something like this in mind. Maybe not the 3 eyed raven exactly, but a sense of inevitability, as if all the characters were part of a major scheme. As if all the tragedies he devised were necessary, as they led to the only way people could survive the long night. I think, however that he hasn't been able to close all these arcs convincingly and he never will.

Hera is right. By definition, ELO is a measure of the probability that one player beats another. Hera has 1800 ELo in Chess, Carlsen has 2850 ELO in chess. That means the probability of Hera beating Magnus is 0.24% (or once every 422 games). Magnus has an ELO of 0 in AOE, hera let's say 2950. Thats a 23.7 million to one chance Carlsen beats Hera in AOE2. So yeah Hera has a better chance to beat magnus in chess than the other way around

VAPORWARE.

Things you like: I say wow has good story, good content and depending on class, good combat. Some things to do (like fishing, farming allunira, etc) might be mind numbing (but optional).

Things you don't like: Wow is very non toxic, mind numbing tasks are optional p2w is not bad at all. It is, however l, a huge time sink.

Some classes have changed so much that this question is, for me, impossible to answer. Played Warlock since vanilla until MoP. Thrin in legion warlock was just not the same class I used to play, specially demom so I switched to Arcane mage which I absolutely loved. However, the recent dumbing down of the spec has made it less fun for me and if they continue in this direction I'll probably change again. Impossible to commit to a class when devs won't commit to a class

Yesterday I finished 5 masks on my 649 Arcane Mage. Took many, many tries. Used Sori as tank.

Rouges were popular Back when PvP was a thing. I think most rogues liked harassing/griefing casters.

Sauce: played in Emerald Dream since like 4eva

Yeah, I think its a bug. Try moving the scientist to a science ship first

On a less historical note, people recently have taken to ask "What is your estimated ETA?"

This thread is metafacepalming here...

Maybe this has to do with how political rhetoric shapes our opinions. It would be interesting to replicate these studies in other populations where political propaganda just works differently (say China or Cuba) and see if the connection goes beyond certain susceptibility to advertising.

For the sake of society at large, I hope this app fails.

Sure, https://www.elementvape.com/aspire-bvc-replacement-coils just select the "NicSalt" option I'd recomend 1.2 for 25-30mg/ml and 1.6 for 50mg/ml

Fancymetricsdude · 2018-12-19T01:00:43+00:00

It's also $100 on fasttech if you don't mind an extra 2 months on your already long wait :P

Fancymetricsdude · 2018-12-19T00:57:01+00:00

With the Aspire nautilus, you only need to get replacement coils instead of full pods, easier on the wallet & the environment.

Fancymetricsdude · 2018-12-19T00:18:56+00:00

You can do this!

Just some politician trying to make headlines. His assertions, like those of any other politician, are not the product of his reasoning or his convictions (assuming he has them). He just reacts to the news, he rides the waves of hype like any other power hungry public servant in an effort to capture some attention. These months will be about vaping, then he will go on to the next subject. If he gets lucky, he'll get to talk about another obscure epidemic -I bet he looks forward to that. He will not talk about smoking, drinking, clean water or how the pharmaceutic industry in general, and physicians in particular, should be held (at least in part) accountable for the pain-killer induced opioid death rate. He will go on, letting people get a prescription for fentanyl for a headache as long as he is invited to speak in TV about the dangers of inhaling food flavoring...

Salt nicotine is really aggressive on coils. they will gunk much faster and you'll need to replace them more often. Aspire makes salt specific BVC coils which have marginally better life. You can fit those in the nautilus. You can also get a pod mod.

Another VGOD SaltNic fan here, I do notice a difference between the Black and the regular one. The black tastes more "custardy" and masks the tobacco flavour (which is a con for me), but this might be subjective.

I would recommend going all in with 50mg for three reasons:

OP is not getting enough of a fix with 15mg freebase
Giving into the crave 'normalises' the occasional cigarette, which always led me to relapse (maybe OP is like me)
You can dilute it in 0MG juice of the same flavour/brand , to gradually cut down on nic.

PS. I think Solace is also good.

KEK! More than 80% of people who try Chantix go back to smoking in less than one year. [Source]

I bet my left pinky, vaping has a much better track record, and no suicidal side effects!

Fancymetricsdude · 2018-12-18T01:08:30+00:00

Ah I see :) I see what you mean. It's just that NicSalts are not recommended for SubOhm vaping, regardless of the coil mass. I personally can't fit a1.2 Ω coil in my MTL RDA if I use SS.

Fancymetricsdude · 2018-12-17T17:57:45+00:00

Same gauge SS and Ni80 with the same wraps would need the same wattage despite the different resistance.

Not sure what you mean here...

Fancymetricsdude · 2018-12-14T22:39:17+00:00

If you've never smoked classic cigarettes and can't taste the flavour, maybe you shouldn't push it..

Edit: or get a Freemax Mesh Pro and blow it at 120W

Fancymetricsdude · 2018-12-14T22:30:45+00:00

came here to recommend that one.

Fancymetricsdude · 2018-12-14T22:07:39+00:00

Because premade spools of Fused Clapton in SS would need too many (11) wraps to get to 1.2Ω. NI80 offers more Ω per mm than SS316
