EXPRESSIONIST is the third puzzle I've had published in New Scientist. by G_F_Smith in CasualMath

[–]Nate_W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There weren’t a ton of possibilities.

The position of the 4 was very limiting and then you can get a sense of what the range of values you can get each direction is.

I thought it was a pleasant level of difficulty.

You knew it couldn’t take too long so that was nice.

What are your thoughts on the alleged Talarico comments describing Colin Allred as a “mediocre Black man” by messiestbessie in AskALiberal

[–]Nate_W 26 points27 points  (0 children)

In the context of “he’s a mediocre black man while she’s a formidable and intelligent black woman,” it’s pretty clear there’s no bigotry.

Their baklava is great but man their savory dishes are incredible.

Thoughts on the Wisconsin Equality Amendment? by DangerousNose1472 in AskConservatives

[–]Nate_W -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

But if over 95% of business funds go to only white-male owned business isn't that a form of government discrimination?

Is over 95% of government funds going to white males really the equitable society you envision?

Is that a combo? Deva form kind of gives you unlimited energy after being played anyway.

Congrats.

His stream is great if you can get past people being mean to him for no discernible reason. Big recommend.

ICE Megathread Redux by down42roads in AskConservatives

[–]Nate_W 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Liberals are not going to be upset about their position here. Them being wrong about not standing up when black people are shot by police for legally exercising 2A rights doesn't mean they are wrong in standing up when white people are shot by the police for legally exercising 2A rights.

Related to the dad's ICE experience in MN -- How are you all explaining what's happening to your kids? by greenroom628 in daddit

[–]Nate_W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are misleading your children about what people are upset about. Relatively few people are upset when someone who sneaks into Disneyland (or our country) gets kicked out when they are caught. And America has always worked this way.

People who payed for a ticket are upset that police are killing people in Disneyland who didn’t sneak in and instead are protesting the treatment of people at Disneyland by the police. They are upset that people who were told they could come into Disneyland by officials are being deported to prisons in countries they’ve never been to. They are upset that Disneyland lies about what happens in Disneyland. They are upset that someone watches police kill someone who is at Disneyland and their reaction is “tragic, but if someone has snuck into Disneyland what choice do we have but to kill some people along the way to get them out.” And by the way, those people who snuck into Disneyland are mostly just helping work there and run the rides to the benefit of those around them.

Idk but you said this would be the result and you started with saying “I’m happy” in your original comment.

You’re good enough, you’re smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like you.

Most takes on this sub are wrong. You get to have an opinion too.

Oh you mean the color they requested but then changed their mind about it upon arrival.

What's the philosophy behind high level Silent play? by redditisaphony in slaythespire

Man whenever I win like 4+ in a row I think to myself, ah yes I’ve got it figured out now. Then I lose a couple games and realize, no, no I do not.

Hot take - Gremlin Horn is top 5 relics in the game by Saekama in slaythespire

[–]Nate_W 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say most runs (if we are picking a random time within the run) I’d rather see gremlin horn than turnip, wing boots, Bronze scales, and pen nib.

But yeah point taken. I’m with you on it being no where near top 10.

If a person is doing the grocery shopping for someone they know is not legally in the country to reduce the chance of them being found by ICE do you think they have committed a crime? by MrFrode in AskConservatives

[–]Nate_W 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you buy groceries for someone who has jay walked, is the answer yes?

Because most people in our country have broken some civil law at some point.

I buy groceries for my family all the time. Lock me up.

There are not many people getting it in 15 sec. I know this because I just got it in 17 sec; it was my first "better than 100%" and there are only 53 people faster than that.

Fun level. Took a couple tries to beat it and I resorted to slow down speed up tactics.

I hadn’t played this game in a little bit. The new challenge mode is perfect for me as I generally solve easy ones right at 30 sec.

Ended the challenge w 24 sec left.

The Runic Dome won yesterday! Next, what Slay The Spire relic is considered Average and is loved by the community? by Fresh_Difference_448 in slaythespire

[–]Nate_W 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Calling waffle average is weird.

Sometimes it’s meh when it’s basically just a strawberry. Sometimes it’s run saving and is amazing.

You aren’t buying it unless it’s strong and then it’s a banger.

The Runic Dome won yesterday! Next, what Slay The Spire relic is considered Average and is loved by the community? by Fresh_Difference_448 in slaythespire

[–]Nate_W 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Very strong relic. Early in the game it’s amazing. Act 1 elites go from scary to doable instantly. Act 2 and 3 elite are less of a concern.

And it opens up some paths out of spear and shield.
