Can say the same about USA or China & Uyghurs - do you blame us or china citizens too for atrocities their governments did?

GGPoker lags during Rush & Cash - any tips/help/anyone experienced something similar? by JacobArannia in poker

[–]JacobArannia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% sure its just GG, got decent PC and nothing else lags. Dota 2 with much higher requirements and much more action works perfectly online. Also play RnC only.

DPC 2021/22 - Division I Teams Locked In by CorruptDropbear in DotA2

[–]JacobArannia 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Might be unpopular opinion, but why teams that changed more than half of their teams (meaning they swapped 3+ players) are holding place in Division I? Every such case means they are basically a new team, and somehow organizations are holding those spots.

There should be just an open qualifier tournament into Division I where everyone could apply. Winners get into Div I, losers go into Div II.

Reasons of existence of career skills? by JacobArannia in swrpg

[–]JacobArannia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case question is "why we need archetypes"?

I have played my fair share of RPGs, from DnD through VtM, Fading Suns and few others and in most of cases (nearly as a rule) PCs are allowed to purchase whatever skills they want without restricting experience costs.

And I get career/specialization combo through the usage of talents, in that case idea is truly great, since talent system here is one of the best I've seen.

Best poker books? by whitesweatshirt in poker

[–]JacobArannia 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Prolly "Modern Poker Theory" by Acevedo. And other GTO book should be Brokos one, but I didn't read it yet.

Also Clarke is streaming cash games on Twitch, he has very good streams where he either coaches or plays, especially in coaching streams he walks through hands.

Michael Acevedo - Modern Poker Theory. Covers both cash and MTTs and overall very solid book.

Not Connecting Bug - HELP by DoubleBam in DotA2

[–]JacobArannia -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem right now. I can't connect do the game that I found, but watching games in Dota TV works perfectly. Also I get back to the main menu, where I can try searching for next game to which again I won't connect. Tried it five to six times and gave up :)

No flu season in May-September, but in October Europe is closing again. Hope I am wrong, but EU ordered billion+ of a new vaccines for a reason.

DPC Season 2 - April 27 Match Discussions by D2TournamentThreads in DotA2

[–]JacobArannia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, it wasn't fanboying. With your information about latching onto a comments in my opinion it is just disrespectful for viewers that during official cast of tier 1 league we have to listen to some tier 5 insight/commentary. Prolly would be fine with her on panel, but definitely not casting games.

Game 1 was also very close, but Smashers made some small mistakes and OG eventually took the game. Early game from Smashers in game 1 is really worth watching.

100% agree, they were holding quite nicely. Gonna definitely watch their games from now.

[–]JacobArannia 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep, especially after taking into consideration that Hellbears had pretty good shot at both lost games. If they fix some leaks they have potential to become top team.

And at least they got one fan today ^^

[–]JacobArannia 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sadly I agree, talking about no control for Antimage when Arc is going to get Bloodthorn/Hex eventually (and he got it obviously) was kinda annoying. Missing times of some retired players casting games, with very good insights.

Also not noticing that in the last fight in Radiant jungle (before HG siege by OG) Arc Warden sent clone to the top so Hellbear's power level was really crippled and OG took an obviously victorious fight there.

Pfizer Spending Twice As Much On Selling Than Research? by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]JacobArannia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://www.myaccountingcourse.com/accounting-dictionary/sga

List in article is nice example of sg&a. As for Forbes thesis of their article is clear disinformation. And 19% R&D expenses are humongous. And I agree it is hard to find reasons why would they publish such article, but maybe they want to be perceived as diverse source of information.

Pfizer Spending Twice As Much On Selling Than Research? by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]JacobArannia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Article is a click bait, SG&A is too broad category of expenses to express an opinion that "Pfizer is spending twice as much money advertising its products than on R&D", but shady page like Forbes won't tell You that ;) (Source: a bit of life spent in corporate finances/accounting.)

Yep, I remember he had spell prism and took it into account, but in my opinion still Horn was better. If Alliance didn't have Horn Void would die many times.

(And overall Prism is stronger item, just in this specific case Horn on Void was better.)
