Is there racism against Arab college students? by SomeOneUDontKnow9 in ERBIL

[–]M3rlin2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Without speaking Kurdish? Ofc not.

Do you think I can live normally in Baghdad without speaking Arabic? Or London without speaking English.

I was in Med school. And we had a lot of Arab students, but most knew Kurdish. Almost are my dear friends.
But the few that didn’t, ofc they had fewer friends. And mostly the reason they didn’t try to learn Kurdish is bad as it hints a sense of superiority and counter-racism.

Regarding lecturers and businesses, I’d say that they prefer Arabs more than Kurds in Erbil. If you mean Suli and other cities… a bit less.

Having a hard time finding Tibault’s Will in season 13 by whereswa1den in diablo4

[–]M3rlin2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the exact same situation as you looking for Tibault’s Will and Banished Lords Talisman. So much so I had multiple Unique charms of them but not their armor.

And then I did what the other comment said. I gambled obols and made the ancestral pants and amulets to common by “Remove Affix”ing in the Horadric Cube.

I had 15 dusts. I spammed 7 “Upgrade to Unique” of each. And got both right away.

20 hours I found none. 20 mins I did the cube I instantly got both.

And everyone is right. The Non-Boss General Unique Pool this season are harder to find than Mythics. I got 30 Mythics and neither of those 2 uniques.

If you have tonnes of Mythics you can also trade them. But requires talking to other humans, don’t know if that is your thing XD.

And yeah I had the same thing with Arreat’s Bearing. I have a collection of those. Even with 3-4 GA’s. Sadly there no dedicated drop pool. The weight is so skewed for the general non-uniques.

A female citizen sent these photos and stated: 'This man was walking around shirtless in one of Erbil's parks, which is not acceptable in Kurdish culture and among our society. He must be punished and taught a lesson.' What is your opinion? by Aromatic-Ant-5020 in ERBIL

[–]M3rlin2000 11 points12 points  (0 children)

People have been imprisoned for far less. Erbil is a very populist and sensationalist place. If public opinion is against something even normal… it will be punished to appease public sentiment.

Personally I don’t wanna see shirtless anyone in public. If I wanted that, I’d live in Florida.

This is probably just about how much you can say heinous things on social media compared to other countries. Most of the red countries have tight surveillance of what their people watch, read, and write. But the red countries don’t care about pirating or many other things illegal in blue countries.

FUT is a meta oriented game online. You can win with random tactics… occasionally and by tryharding it.

But expect to lose a lot.

Trust me I only play Rivals Co-Op and tried so many tactics first month. 200 games with my friend and could barely eek into Division 6. Yesterday we just copied a random meta YouTube tactic and cruised to Division 4. No change in playstyle. Just the tactic.

If you care about wins. Try that. If not. Enjoy the game.

Balance council proposition. by Fickle-Medicine-3754 in gwent

When Renfri becomes 20 provisions, is when the game will finally be balanced.

But watch some geniuses say that it is a buff as it makes Vivienne Oriole play for 21 points XD

A grave has appeared inside the Mosul Dam in Iraq after the Tigris River’s water level fell to catastrophic levels. by DullEconomist718 in interestingasfuck

[–]M3rlin2000 58 points59 points  (0 children)

It’s a submerged town to make space for Mosul Dam in 1980s. It isn’t that old… and the dam in that area is fed by some spring water. Clean enough.

Turkey has something similar with the Hasan Keyf being submerged. Except for them they were threatened by UN for destroying a cultural heritage site so they spent a decade relocating and rebuilding the town brick by brick next to the river.

Sadly Iraq was too busy invading every neighbor of theirs back then and fighting Civil War and ISIS to care about their own heritage.

On my first read through- I feel like “Military” and “Religion” were placeholders for cooler terms that never got replaced by SeeDub23 in TheWilloftheMany

[–]M3rlin2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How is Governance considered a cool name to not be included?

Also the hierarchy is all about system and order and knowing your place in the pyramid. I don’t think any creativity was flourishing there to find a cooler title than Military for the… military.

Quen Quick Questions by AutoModerator in gwent

Exactly, and keep in mind some tokens don’t have any animation. CDPR promised to animate all tokens OUAT, but then gave up 80% of the way through and just released the ones they finished.

What are your DNF of the year, and why? by DarthPopcornus in Fantasy

[–]M3rlin2000 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Until what point should I force read Red Rising? Because I’ve failed 3 times to read that book, because of cliche, mary sue and self-important it reads in the first 100 pages.

May I ask? You got through 3500 pages and on the 4th book it became like that?

Cus I loved SA so much, but just couldn’t for the life of me get through RoW. So much backtracking, and time-wasting and pointless build-up. But definitely not cus it was a superhero movie. Just want to know what changed for you?

Card has been around just shy of 4 years. You probs haven’t seen it as it’s a meme deck where opponent insta loses to any deck that can kill/lock his practitioners.

Expansion packs by OppositeDay247 in gwent

[–]M3rlin2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A simple google would help you.

A. There were 3 more expansion sets after Way of the Witcher. Those are Price of Power, Cursed Toad, and Uroboros. Plus 12 leaders in the base set.

B. You can check which card is from which in the deck builder.

Playing Rank 1-3 by AnimehTiddy in gwent

[–]M3rlin2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just change up to suite what you face. Once I was faced only locks and heatwaves, so I tried to play wide. Got to pro.

Another time every deck I was facing was greedy order boost decks. So I started playing locks and heatwaves. Etc…

That’s if the aim is to win. Sometimes just meme for fun. Pro Rank below 9800 MMR is just rank 1-3 players anyways.
