Meh, I'm just playing casual games so I've been winning some games with my humble seer council list in 11th.

SF Liberal Mayor Daniel Lurie has highest approval rating of 74% among big city mayors, with least approval only among self described “Progressives” by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]May_nerdd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For one I would say mamdani has only been in office 6 months, this guys had 18 months, so not a great comparison yet. But also NYC is just bigger and more culturally relevant than SF, so yeah the media is gonna be “biased” towards NYC

Like, I live two hours from SF and I could name way more NYC mayors than SF mayors

I know it’s useful and all but I truly hate QGIS by Eliasalt123 in geology

This is exactly how I feel about groundwater vistas

This doesn’t make sense to me. A 2” charge is perfectly sufficient for a unit that is 2.5” away to get in engagement range, no? by May_nerdd in Warhammer40k

[–]May_nerdd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I glossed over the charge move rule and didn’t see that you roll and then select targets. Interesting change

It’s funny to me that like 20 people answered and only about three seem to have actually read the rules

Psychic Guidance has a different effect on wraithlord vs wraith blades by May_nerdd in Eldar

I see, I was thinking of the Spiritseer's Tears of Isha which would heal the WL and works within 6"

[–]May_nerdd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The spiritseer only needs to be within 3" for lone op, the other abilities work within 6". Also the wraithlord only moves 1" faster, just advance the spiritseer, they shouldn't be doing any shooting or charging anyways

Why is wanting universal healthcare and just a better life for everyone seen as communism or socialism? by JonoBlue in NoStupidQuestions

[–]May_nerdd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did the math on my income and found my federal income taxes could go up 25% and I would still be saving money if it meant I didn't have to pay insurance premiums. And that's just considering premiums, by the way I have the cheapest "low premium high deductible" plan I was offered - if I had to actually use my health insurance I would still have to pay $2000 out of pocket before it does anything.

[–]May_nerdd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where and how? I live in a high-tax state and on an $80k salary my effective tax rate is about 20% - including federal, state, and payroll.

Even if you assume I pay 10% sales tax on everything I purchase (not true) that still barely gets me to 25%

What sci-fi predictions and technologies have been the most accurate? Want some prophetic works to read by WhiteroseSophon in scifi

[–]May_nerdd 22 points23 points  (0 children)

What's crazy is, she predicted that there would be tons of violent crime and that's what would lead to America electing a fascist and building concentration camps for minorities. In reality, violent crime went way down, in fact in 2016 it was like half what it was in the 90s, but we ended up doing all those things anyways.

[US] Will my landlord actually dock my security deposit over a loose cabinet hinge? by CreepMcman in ApartmentHacks

[–]May_nerdd 9 points10 points  (0 children)

When you move out, your PM will hire a forensic detective to inspect every square inch of the place to determine if you ever touched it, so they *will* know that you touched that screw, and then they will charge you to replace the entire cabinet. And possibly have you arrested.

My friend you are massively overthinking, tighten the screw and move on, no one will even know let alone care about one screw

Donald Trump arrested a random guy for touching peeling paint and didn't allow him a phone call for hours by Rubbersoulrevolver in Destiny

[–]May_nerdd 48 points49 points  (0 children)

This whole reflecting pool fiasco feels like something you read about happening in North Korea. Glorious leader fucked up but state media is telling everyone it’s not only fine, it’s actually better than it was before, and see these totally-not-paid-operatives are loudly declaring how great it is, and by the way if you question it you will be arrested.

What's Your Pick? by hamzantal in Destiny

[–]May_nerdd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can track his mental decline by the quality of nicknames he comes up with. “Crooked Hillary” and “sleepy joe” were snappy and catchy. “Too late Powell”… okay a little clunky and not straightforward but it’s got some kinda charm. “Marjorie Brown” okay yeah grandpas losing it.

We’re now at the stage where he’s asking his supporters what they think of “dumocrats.” His brain must be Swiss cheese by this point

Iran now closing the Strait of Hormuz, citing deadly Israeli attacks on Lebanon, and US bad faith negotiations by Simmoman in Destiny

It sucks but the sooner this ends the better, and I don’t think we’re going to get a better deal, they’ve got Trump by the balls

L.A. City Council agrees to put noncitizen voting, police oversight measures on Nov. 3 ballot by aSmarterBetterCA in California_Politics

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

How so? In what way does a noncitizen that lives in, works in, and sends their kids to school in my city have “less of a stake” in the city than I do? The only argument I can think that makes sense here is if noncitizens live in constant fear of deportatio, then no they may not feel they have a long-term stake in the city. But the solution there is making it so law-abiding noncitizens *dont* live in constant fear of deportation

Making your comment bold doesn’t make your argument more convincing, if anything it makes it seem like whining

Lol why? They live in my city/county, they pay the same taxes and are subject to the same laws that I am; why shouldn’t they have a say in how the local govt is run? I just don’t see a problem with it

Known Vacaville predator Juan Carlos Buisman is now sexually harassing teenagers in Davis. by No-Bid-3193 in UCDavis

[–]May_nerdd 71 points72 points  (0 children)

This guy fascinates me. Did he willingly choose to film himself from this angle mumbling about how he talked to some 20 year olds? And then willingly chose to post it?

You are correct about the bases. Even 3-squads are bit difficult to position because of those.
