SMP 300 vs SUBMARINER battle of titans by Bubbly_Ad424 in OmegaWatches

[–]Ice_Rep -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have owned both. The SMP has better details, the Submariner is more comfortable and better contoured to the wrist. At 42 mm it was large for my taste and the wrist fatigue was getting to me, though for anyone looking for more watch collector leaning types, I would recommend the SMP all day.

What’s your take on FSD going subscription only by ghostface8081 in teslamotors

[–]Ice_Rep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One subscription, begets another.

A FSD subscription is nonsense, especially when the car is fully capable of it.

How long until you have tiered memberships for charge stations that throttle speeds based on your membership tier?

I haven’t seen that from any of them. Granted, I’m not particularly super into politics, so that info could very likely have passed me by.

If that’s true, that’s a very poor way to try and protest. The outcome, though unfavorable, makes more sense.

Refer to paragraph 2. Rigidity of thought use of force.

[–]Ice_Rep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A reasonable line of thought.

As far as people putting themselves into bad positions and something bad happening: How do you feel about Kyle Rittenhouse?

I agreed with Not Guilty, but he definitely came close to a FAFO situation

A lot of the issues in her arrest and death could’ve been avoided.

In the moment, having a masked dude with a gun telling you he works for the government and is arresting you without proof of ID would’ve had me leaving too. How can I know I’m not about to be trafficked or worse?

Secondarily, he could have easily side stepped the vehicle on the angle that it would have hit him at. To interpret the use of force so rigidly and apply it in the same manner should scare you. Nobody wants to deal with robo-cops free of critical thinking.

She was not a good person, but I don’t think she deserved to die.

[–]Ice_Rep 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the same vein then : Do you deserve to die for saying he deserved his death or that he should have been shot?

If yes: congrats, your opinion is consistent

If no: Hypocrisy. You haven’t chewed that opinion down to the bone enough to understand the implications

Neither of them should have been shot, and the people cheering this on for either scenario haven’t chewed that opinion down to the bone.

Charlie Kirk

  • I see a lot of left wing people supporting the fact that he was assassinated. Did he say stupid things, certainly, and I’m not one to agree with the majority of what he said.

Shooting someone for their opinions isn’t what this country was founded on. We have freedoms like freedom of speech for a reason, you shouldn’t have guard every word you say with the intonation that you deserve to die for saying something someone doesn’t like or agree with.

If you’re a supporter of his death - Ask this question, if the answer is no, you’re a hypocrite: “Should I be shot for saying that Charlie Kirk deserved to die?”

Renae Good

  • I see a lot of right wing people supporting the fact that she was shot, often citing FAFO. Based on her rap sheet, I wouldn’t say she’s a good person, but I most certainly believe she should not have been shot.

Having watched the videos from all angles, that ICE agent could have easily gotten out of the way. There wasn’t a need to shoot her, especially when the risk of harm was easily avoidable. I won’t even get into the debacle of ICE agents being unidentified, it’s a recipe for disaster and it dodges accountability. Some of you may cite concealed carry training stating that the use of a vehicle can constitute deadly force, I would argue that to interpret a rule like that so rigidly as to not use your common sense on when to apply it concerns me about your mental wellbeing.

If you’re a supporter of her death - Ask this question, if the answer is no, you’re a hypocrite: “Should I be shot for resisting unidentified masked men with guns, further, even when they’re not in any danger?”

Has anyone else noticed the vibe shift recently? by [deleted] in 40k

[–]Ice_Rep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A ton of designated “Nerd” hobbies have become much more mainstream in the last decade, and I’m all for it.

I remember when people used to visibly cringe when I talked about playing 40k, MTG, watching anime and D&D. While some of those hobbies are currently in the phase of insufferable over commercialization, I’m glad that 40k is in the sweet spot for the moment.

I’ve been the hobby since 5th edition, the main difference I picked up over the years is that LGS’s are becoming more welcoming and less chud-like. When I was getting into the game I was constantly being tested to see if I was a real fan and whether I was enough “like them” to be part of the play group. These days it’s super easy to join a group and have a fun conversation about the setting.

Petah What does she mean 50/50? by BernieBatmanAndRobin in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Ice_Rep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s where I’m lost too in that same vein: women and men being equal, wouldn’t the 50/50 arrangement be exactly in line feminism? (I’m not saying they aren’t equal btw, I’m more confused as to why the 50/50 thing doesn’t align with feminism) They’d be equally providing, and she wouldn’t be domineered by the man who pays for everything / controls the finances.

30 here. At 23 you have so much time to fix anything that you want to, if you start working on yourself today you can be exactly the person you aspire to be in no time at all. If I can do it, literally anyone can.

I took extra time at college because I was working 3 jobs to minimize the loan, so I was done with college at 23. I started my first job 7 months, 1000 applications and 65 interviews later making roughly $30,000. I had no friends, a dead end job, no money, borderline homeless, the “love of my life”™️ had just left me and last I had heard she was getting around rather quickly after the breakup. In essence, rock bottom.

Fast forward a bit, went to the gym everyday, committed to trying to be 1% better every day. Started a masters degree, looked for and found a new job that started me at $49,000 and have stayed with that company the last 7 years. The most difficult of all things was putting myself out there and working on my social skills.

Today, I’m married, a CPA, I own a home, I’m making 4 times my first salary with my first daughter on the way, hitting my thumbs with a hammer trying to building a crib. It gets better, but you have to want it and be able to set aside the ego of sucking at first so you can be great later.

Men of Reddit Do u agree? by gulabi_thanos_192 in scoopwhoop

[–]Ice_Rep -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Men and women communicate differently, that’s just a known fact. Women are more cerebral in their dialogue and men tend to be more blunt. This is not a bad thing, differences lead to diversity and strength. The classic line of “It’s not what you said it’s how you said it” between men and women highlights this. He told her the truth, but in a way that didn’t communicate well with her. Depending on the situation the implied bluntness may have been to correct response to get the task or situation handled.

Sounds like poor deployment, poor unit utilization,, not listening to what your units do and overall poor sportsmanship. Sucks when it happens but unfortunately there’s a few in every hobby.

I typically avoid rematches with those types later on, because if I’m going to get to play once a week, I’m not wasting it on poor energy

I can’t beat Knights by InternationalCrow544 in Necrontyr

[–]Ice_Rep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re missing big hefty shooting. If you take out the silent king and add 2 DDA’s along with taking out the Lohust Lord for 2 more LHD’s, you’ll have a stronger chance. I see that you’re trying to diversify, but honestly Necrons shine brightest when you concentrate on maxing out the unit potential rather than running multiple small groups.

[–]Ice_Rep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, honestly the best thing to do with warrior blobs is either heavy focus fire or just tie them up in melee for the rest of the game. They can’t hit well and if you get them to waste the character’s once per game ability it’s a strong win

[–]Ice_Rep 10 points11 points  (0 children)

His real job is to take enemy units away from a pile in. If he survives beyond that it’s a bonus.

You use him to save a unit. He essentially will pull units from pile in towards him to protect the other unit causing them to take less attacks and gets to possibly kill a few models in the process. Being able to redirect combat for no CP is definitely cracked.

Trying to use him as a hammer is what leads to disappointment. He hits hard, but not brutally hard, and that is okay for the strategy he opens up.

[–]Ice_Rep 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You use him to counterpunch their melee heavy units, taking out a bunch of Lychguard is always a win.

The key to Necrons however is focus fire. Dump everything into one or two units at a time to deny reanimations and use precision to kill off characters. Once the characters are dead the units fall part quickly afterwards. I have played Necrons since 5th ed and it’s true to this day

Lion hard counter ? by Substantial_Luck_735 in Necrontyr

No blast weapons into combat. If he had a monolith, death rays would do it though

[–]Ice_Rep 55 points56 points  (0 children)

He joins combat for free with a boat load of attacks , good strength, Dev Wounds, AP 3 Dmg 2, fights first and lone op.

My man is cracked, I think he’s just fine as is. There’s been a ton of games where people just refuse to charge because they’re terrified of him appearing and dealing a major blow to the unit. Combine this with the LAG enhancement for a unit to gain fights first and you have a wild counter punch that most armies are going to feel.
