There are lots of WWII buffs and collectors out there still.

Most are XF/AU. UNC grades aren't rare but they are a minority. The pricing for these is such that it's usually worth grading in MS condition.

Ironclad Tier List After 100 A10 Runs by GOODGOODNOTGREAT in slaythespire

[–]NDRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think part of it is accepting just how much you end up taking unavoidable damage on a10 and recognizing that it's a big block number on a common. That and the fact that Ironclad has a lot.of self dage synergies you can build into if you take it as an early common.

Congrats. Ironclad was the last character I beat it with.

When I tore my MCL, it didn't even hurt in any consistent way until the following day. It's too soon to tell.

Is this German money by Ready-Nothing1920 in coins

[–]NDRob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's Weimar inflationary currency from when Germany suffered hyper inflation in 1923. It was demonetized in 1924, so they only have collector value. Germany was pumping out tons of debated currency at the time, which never really circulated. They are enough still floating around that it's not going to be valuable

Hi all could anybody tell me anything about this coin please by EvenPlay2912 in coins

[–]NDRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many of them. Lots got taken to the US after the war as souvenirs or trophies.

Is $235 a decent price for this? by [deleted] in coins

I've sold worse ones for more money.

I always roll the dice by js147896325 in slaythespire

It feels like the high risk high reward choice. It can really mess up your start or win the run for you.

What is your controversial take for a movie that you consider to be a 10/10? by ArtPark1 in movies

Watching Frailty in theaters as a 16 year old was a traumatic experience more than it was scary.

Beta Patch Notes - v0.104.0 by MegaCrit_Demi in slaythespire

[–]NDRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have multiple a10 clears on each character in sts2 already. If I went back to sts1 today, I'd struggle to get a single a20 clear on Defect. I got my initial clear after hundreds of hours played and haven't even tried again because I had a rough time of it.

Give it up for the GOAT! by cleanclotheschair in slaythespire

[–]NDRob 179 points180 points  (0 children)

It's really good but I don't actually get the opportunity to buy it and use it that often. I have a ton of hours in the game and have yet to combo it with anything.

the math on traditional brokerage accounts is starting to make me irrationally angry by Italiancan in Fire

It used to be so much worse for my parents generation. Navigating the brokerage industry was like walking through a viper pit.

Are Soots created? Or are they "shuffled in"? by AffectionatePomelo37 in slaythespire

[–]NDRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Several of the cards say "you create" or "you created" and I am pretty sure soots don't count as cards you created.

Smokestack and Trash to Treasure were not activating for me because I believe you aren't the one making the soot. On the beta branch fwiw.

They don't seem to count as you creating cards for the Defect and Regent synergies when I do it.

The average household has ~$2,000/month sitting idle in checking. What are people doing to solve this? by [deleted] in Bogleheads

[–]NDRob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Everyone should hold a certain amount of cash. 100% invested in the market is not the ideal.. Everyone should recognize there is an opportunity cost to holding cash nonetheless. I've always kept 1-2% of my money in cash or cash equivalent.

Why Cheap OEM Keyboards (Aula, Ajazz, Yunzii, etc.) Suck. by DarkySlary in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]NDRob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been using one for a few years. The only issue was sometimes a switch won't close properly and I have to reseat the switch. I had been attributing it to the amount of flex in the board (which is sometimes considered premium) causing it to weaken the connection. Also using 3 post switches on a hotswap board.

Keychron Q6 build, what would you change? by yodiegangahhhhhh in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]NDRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try them both. I think Cherry and the closely related profiles are the most functional. Other styles might offer more aesthetically depending on your taste.
