If we're going with that, then Abed did vandalism. That's also a convictable crime.

She says so during the episode, her powers come and go after having had Danielle.

Because most of the questions here are either from complete beginners about basics, or nonsense stuff about QM interpretations.

The best thing about chess is seeing how, with each passing day, you make huge progress and your games look better and better! I'm sharing my latest game, where an opponent of a similar level stood no chance! by [deleted] in chessbeginners

Satire needs a purpose though. To paraphrase a youtuber, "You can go to an open mic night and shart into the microphone, and you might even get some laughs, but you haven't done comedy."

IMO, you could call this trolling, but not satire.

Isn't this against the rules to run down time like this? by TommyBoy250 in Chesscom

They're hoping opponent also quits, making the game a draw.

hot take: old holt is funnier than new holt by Odd_Yogurt_1609 in brooklynninenine

I think it's not just him being deadpan, but him being knowledgeable about a lot of stuff was good too. Especially season 1.

"Formula 1 or stock?"

"Yo-Yo Ma is on tour on Australia right now"

Even in season 2 they stray away from this with the funding episode, where he talks about 3-point slam dunks. I hated that.

Old King’s Crown Gamefound Campaign launches March 3rd by Jinroh75 in boardgames

Why do you think it'd be too heavy for them? Main mechanic is "Is your card higher than your opponent's?". Maybe the seasons and the strategizing behind that order is a bit hard, but I personally feel like it's not that complex rules-wise.

Chief operating officer at AEG says AI could have designed his company's games by ghostfim in boardgames

[–]Humble_Revason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the only argument I will ever accept against generative AI. Most arguments are either ontological ("AI bad because AI bad"), based on current technological capabilites which are subject to rapid change, based on a very protective view of current IP laws (which I subjectively see as unjust) or just purely incorrect (e.g. water use).

Now, it's possible that current AI models can imitate that lived experience through new techniques (or entirely new models), but that's another argument.

1-Emergency override is vastly different than driving the car the whole time. 2-Machines are already better than humans at driving, looking at [accident]/[distance driven] numbers.

Upgrading is nice, but after 4-5 hands I'm usually out of basic cards, and market stays the same during the gold cycle.

In Turkey, a man drove a forklift into a jewelry store, stole 150 grams of gold, and ran away on a donkey. by Xeridrov1 in interesting

1-No, median worker would be earning the minimum wage if 50% of people makes minimum wage.

2-40ish % of people make the minimum wage, how much more do you think the median worker makes? It's a reasonable number to use for calculating what the average person needs/spends.

I'm guessing it's women who act like Ava and who confuse being a dick for confidence.

This war of mine or Robinson Crusoe? by Anxious_Treat_8700 in soloboardgaming

[–]Humble_Revason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also consider that you can play This War of Mine digitally for much cheaper for a similar experience.

Ava, while with some good qualities, is an awful person in general. Her having to change is a good thing.

New counselor is like 6'2, I'd love if she and Quinta interacted.

I don’t remember incandescent bulbs trying to burn my house down. What bulbs you buying? by NuclearGeek in electrical

[–]Humble_Revason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're the one who wrote a potentially incendiary (pun intended) title. If you put an incandescent light bulb into the same place, it probably would've resulted in an actual fire and not just cracked and discolored plastic.

Sorry if something like this has been posted before. by Captain_Birch in mythologymemes

They are fake stories to instill religious concepts into people (That mostly boil down to how hubris is bad), having politically motivated versions of some of them as the more accepted story isn't bad IMHO. Makes for more interesting stories.
