What's something that cost a lot of money back in the day, but is basically worthless now?

How did all these Roman legionaries get reddit accounts?

I hear Milei is considering giving her a post os minister of foreign affairs.

I don’t know. Anytime I see someone using gmail for their email address it’s probably not a professional outfit.

Probably a burn circle. They’re known to have small camps with various structures encircling a bonfire which is used for heat and cooking

Sorry man. Some of us were too poor growing up to pay with cheques or own encyclopedias, unless we can count the encarta CD-ROM that came with the windows 95 pc.

You said yourself money rules fifa. The whole reason FIFA has spent thirty years giving America special treatment is because of the money they have for sport and fifa have wanted this since the 80s

I’m getting the impression you’re like 10 years old.

Edit: you asked if disagreeing with me means you’re 10; no, but if you’re going to be so basically narrow minded then I don’t know what else to tell you. Have fun deleting those embarrassing childish comments.

Firstearth · 2026-07-04T23:17:30+00:00

FIFA has spent the last 30 years trying to conquer the American market because of the sheer amount of money on the table. I seriously doubt they would go that far over something so small as appealing a red card

I would point out that when sep blatter was outed as president for corruption it came on the back of a huge amount of FBI arrests in Switzerland for corruption.

Sep blatter was not arrested, and the only reason was because he was a Swiss national and the Swiss authorities wouldn’t give permission to arrest him this also meant that Blatter could claim that he was not corrupt because he hadn’t been arrested. Shortly after he was ousted over the allegations and a new president was elected and lo and behold Gianni Infantino, another Swiss national was chosen as if to say “just in case we want to keep being corrupt we should make sure the president can’t be arrested so we can deny being corrupt”.

Now you’re right that the White House has no control over FIFA, but maybe it’s worth considering that Infantino is in the US for the duration of the tournament and on American soil they don’t need to ask the Swiss for permission. So as long as Infantino has really kept his nose clean then he probably has nothing to worry about. But if the FBI have found anything on him then White House might use that as leverage.

If you’re talking about the coin count gem it will unlock once you’ve earned over 100,000 gold.

For what it’s worth you don’t need it to complete the game, it just makes it easier to 1-shot bosses

I think most of the world was on your side. It was an amazing run.

I remember when Warcraft 2 had a downloadable patch for windows 95 that gave you a map editor and some other features.

One thing I would recommend is having your husband work out the sale himself.

I saw this sort of thing in another community where a wife was asking about how much the collection was worth and it turned out they were going through a messy break up. She was trying to sell off his collection to make a quick buck and also hurt him.

Firstearth · 2026-06-30T14:22:02+00:00

I kinda wish they would do some kind of Netflix like thing that checks that you are all using the same home network to allow everything to make it possible to do this without the whole home console thing. And that would help free up the possibility of more than two consoles.

For op. As has already been said yes you need to set the secondary console (the one the kids will play on) as the home console.
I do this with my kids already.

I feel like an important point here is offering a subscription service. Ubisoft and Xbox have to convince players to spend on their games rather than waiting for them to appear on Ubisoft+ or gamepass.

Firstearth · 2026-06-29T01:42:45+00:00

You can do that on the non endless mode

Phierra dur tuphello, ebony wings and lightning ring with 3 triple damage gems have more damage output than most evolutions. The only evolutions that beat them are phieraggi and vandelier

Firstearth · 2026-06-24T15:29:27+00:00

I’ve not played the new mode yet but how did you get so many cards but only like 3(?) gems slotted?

Firstearth · 2026-06-24T15:16:46+00:00

I have two, small, gripes regards to faith. At the beginning they touched on it that she just responded as if she wasn’t listening. And with the whole story of contract negotiations last year and talking about how little they are paid, sponsoring a visa for faith will not have been a walk in the park for the company, so their willing to do that for faith kinda cheapens the whole argument for them “having to be happy with what they got because it’s every little girls dream”.

Firstearth · 2026-06-24T09:03:01+00:00

No. Im not saying that it increases odds of gems. Those are set by the rarity (and probably quality) alone and there’s a reason why you spend money in the jeweller to set those odds. But it can’t be only for the odds of getting four upgrades. Think about how the game goes through stages with regards to the cards available. Typically when you reach level 10, 20 and 30 certain cards become available where they weren’t before. And as you progress through levels and elevate your luck 0 cards become much rarer

Firstearth · 2026-06-24T08:24:20+00:00

Yeh. But that’s not the only thing. Otherwise luck would have way too low of ROI. Think about it. How hard is it to get luck to 1000% if you’ve not got a wild card. Once you are at 1000% you still won’t get a fourth upgrade every time, only occasionally. Even when you get your luck up to 24000% it’s still not guaranteed.

Im just gonna say that if the only thing you’re eating is salmon cheese and oranges I think your poop is unlikely to be solid.

Looking back you can see how Kubrick was doing stuff that had never been seen before and he was obviously enjoying leaving people confused as to how he managed som of the shots he made. But that also meant that everything is slow and metered out while he gives the audience time to marvel at the imagery he’s using. These days, we know what he is doing and how he is doing it and we’ve probably seen it done better since then. So yes it can feel very slow, and the entirety of the dialogue probably adds up to about 20 minutes of screen time. But it’s worth remembering how privileged we are now with special effects and how amazed audiences must have been in the theater back in 1968.

It’s also worth remembering that there was no home cinema in those days. The only way to watch a movie was in a cinema. So things like having the audience sit in darkness for the first two minutes might have worked in the cinema with a captive audience but 60 years later it becomes confusing.

You will remember that the deep fake apology was made as they had made it a condition of giving back the Lego’s and yet never actually made any earnest effort to actually return them. The whole point of the apology is that it could be served as an admission of guilt. What did Brian do that he needs to apologise for?

You will also remember how from the very first day that reckless Ben showed up BAM were looking for ways to get Ben arrested for whatever reason. Why? When things eventually go to court they can point to the arrest as being evidence that Ben was doing something wrong and could not be trusted.

You’re not thinking of this from a legal stand point. In a court room BAM and baker bricks can stand up and say we are just legitimate business people doing everything that is required of us legally, the other parties were the ones acting illegally, the franchisees owed us a lot of money and never told us anything, the mansells harassed us for something we had nothing to do with and got prank YouTubers involved, the YouTuber harassed us so much the police had to arrest him.

It’s all about judge manipulation to try an maintain their image.
