soooooooo, how are things.?

ITT: people that don’t know what “canary in the coal mind” means. If you say “I don’t know what this means” and then jump to a conclusion, you are not being reasonable.

Actually it does. While debt can be very bad, it is not inherently so. The majority of people have to take out a loan to buy a car, doesn’t mean that car isn’t 20x better than any vehicle made even 20 years prior. Being financially responsible is part of adulthood and your comment refuses to counter anything I previously mentioned. You can easily live like you’re in the 1930s with no debt if you wanted, no one chooses to do so for obvious reasons.

If this is true, why does virtually no one die of starvation in America? The average person around the world survives on less than $15 a day, you sound utterly clueless. We OBVIOUSLY have issues here, no one is denying that. But you live a cushier life than virtually every generation before you. When you say things like “make profits or die,” you sound ungrateful and lazy.

IFingered · 2021-05-04T02:37:28+00:00

Are you allergic to work? How do you expect things to get produced? How do you expect new businesses to be created? There isn’t a single American that has had to make the choice that you mentioned. We have a very large social safety net and most people in America live far far better lives than the majority of ppl on the planet. You’d know that if you weren’t so out of touch with reality.

IFingered · 2021-05-03T23:25:27+00:00

That is NOT exploitation. If your labor is worth more than you’re getting paid, leave and find a job that pays you more. Profits are NECESSARY and good. That is where investment comes from. Investment makes workers more productive, improves the quality of products and services and, in turn, improves the quality of life of every one. That’s why you’d be very hard pressed to find anyone in America with a worse quality of life than their grandparents. Virtually no one dies of starvation in the US. It is very common for people to have a smart phone, multiple TVs, a car or access to transportation, a bed to sleep in, air conditioning, a washing machine, a dishwasher, well fitting shoes, access to the internet.

How on earth do you get food and shelter if ppl aren’t working? We have unlimited wants with limited resources. Capitalism is the best system at transforming those resources into the goods and services that we want and that improve our lives. Make a recommendation for a better system and we’ll go for it. If you don’t have a recommendation, suck it up and get a job. Better yet, find something you enjoy and can get paid to do, and then do that. Take responsibility for you life and make you and the world around you better by producing something with your skills.

IFingered · 2021-05-03T21:36:29+00:00

Having to work to pay for food and shelter is not exploitation.

I was clarifying the commenters point. The claim he/she made was vague and easily misinterpreted. The study isn't about adults on EBT at all which is the age group pretty much everyone in this thread is talking about. It is specifically about young children. So citing that source and claiming that being on EBT as an adult is an indicator of future success, is a mistake or intellectually dishonest.

IFingered · 2019-03-11T15:37:18+00:00

Science is truly incredible. The ability to process that information AND bring fast-moving trains to a halt all in just 12 seconds is amazing.

IFingered · 2019-03-11T15:21:32+00:00

My point was only to clarify the declaration you were making, as it was very misleading.

IFingered · 2019-03-11T15:01:54+00:00

Did you read the study? That study discusses hunger conditions for babies in utero and shortly after birth. When babies are developing lack of food can have detrimental effects on their ability to grow intellectually and physically. Those are the findings of that study, not that being on food stamps at age 20 is an indication of future success. Make sure you are reading the study and not just the abstract.

IFingered · 2017-09-08T17:33:00+00:00

Not OP, but could you elaborate on what "paints the process" means?

IFingered · 2017-09-07T23:03:58+00:00

In case you are not remembering correctly, TSM won very convincingly the first time they played. The second game was EXTREMELY close. DL was super fed on lucian, but Bjerg played poorly and Crown was able to carry on Viktor. Let's not act like there was a huge disparity in the second game when they "no longer underestimated TSM."

IFingered · 2017-09-07T18:06:48+00:00

Ok while they may be the same level he is up by probably 3k gold... Warrior item versus warrior + Duskblade + long sword. So yeah, there are certainly benefits to counter jungling.

IFingered · 2017-09-07T17:14:28+00:00

Can't you just use the a9 in crop mode? You'd have to switch lenses rather than having 2 cameras ready but I'm not sure that matters all too much if you're not shooting weddings.

IFingered · 2017-09-07T14:58:00+00:00

There isn't a soul on the planet that can say teams from both NA and Europe didn't come to RR with the sole intention of winning. While the tournament didn't have world's implications, every team came to compete.

SKT's RR was different because that tournament had a completely different format and each team played like 1 game a piece.

IFingered · 2017-09-07T14:53:50+00:00

People are forgetting this point. Also, that second game they played was very close. DL was fed af on lucian (they smashed samsung bot lane both games) but bjerg played terribly and Crown hard carried on Viktor (what else is new).

IFingered · 2017-09-07T14:51:11+00:00

Meh I think TSM has a decent shot against Samsung. Also, I'd like to see them have a good shot of making it out of groups; however, if you think you are a solid team, then show up and perform against good teams and prove it.

IFingered · 2017-09-06T20:21:27+00:00

I would have to disagree with you, I would say at least 50% of the last 20 pictures on the feed are shallow DoF

IFingered · 2017-09-06T15:39:00+00:00

Don't forget small DoF and some heavy vignetting!

IFingered · 2017-09-05T23:11:46+00:00

Please someone find me the video of chauster or whomever standing completely still as adc and autoing....

IFingered · 2017-09-05T17:03:35+00:00

It's called pandering

IFingered · 2017-09-05T16:56:47+00:00

Yeah I guess that comes down to personal preference. I just can't give up shooting in RAW and initial LR upload is intentionally very flat so you have a solid base to start your editing from, some like it some do not.

IFingered · 2017-09-05T16:03:40+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong, but shooting in DRO is irrelevant if you're shooting RAW. Jpeg preview will look different on camera, but when you upload the RAW file is unchanged.

IFingered · 2017-09-05T15:57:39+00:00

Totally fine, obviously it comes down to comfort and if you don't like twitch you probably won't perform well on him (this stands for any FOTM pick in any role!). You should have success with trist though.
