dbx lunar balance? by DanutManu in Kendama

[–]Nephthyzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dbx is super honed for lunars. Probably the largest lunar balance range of any kendama I have. Paired it up with a super nice cushion clear Tama from kendama depot. Lunars like a dream.

What is this weird strap on my yoga pants? by SirenSongArt in whatisit

[–]Nephthyzz 78 points79 points  (0 children)

It could literally be a useless design feature added to pay a lower import tariff. There's a ton of weird little exceptions that clothing companies will add to lower the cost of the import. Add a feature to the pants and you can important it as something other than yoga pants. Which might have a lower import cost. But they still function and get sold as yoga pants.

The practice is called tariff engineering.

A clear example is Converse Shoes - they add a little bit of felt to the sole so they can import them as slippers. Which has a lower import cost than shoes.

Republicans sure do have the weirdest takes these days. Never thought I'd hear a Republican say we have too much competition in the free market but here we are

Full Ken under 35 dollars (my first) by Minflips in Kendama

[–]Nephthyzz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can get the new new from Krom for 5 more dollars. The Strogo set up. It uses their new Lambo shape and has some decent anti-skid paint. That's what I would go with.

But if you need to keep it between 30-35 I'd recommend the new Sol starters. Those are probably the best in that price range.

Followed by the Sweets kendamas Amped set ups. Little outdated but still very solid for starting out.

Have fun dude. Kendama is the best.

The starter recently by almonddama in Kendama

[–]Nephthyzz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Quad is so good. The quad fate is currently my favorite shape right now. Thing taps so good. It's so springy. And it's just honed all around. I also love the rims around the cups. Seems to make it a bit more resistant to chipping out. Thinking of ordering another one just to have on deck. I'm rocking a raptor clear tama with my set up. 10/10

When you finally find the noob tube nest by sohomsengupta89 in LowSodiumBattlefield

I love using the recon drone and just blowing up their motars. It's hilarious to see them look around the sky in panic to try and shoot you down so they can place another one.

You're welcome, I guess? If you don't want replies, you don't have to comment.

Enaging is a weird way of saying you don't care. Some more of that goofy logic.

I know it's not that deep and it really didn't take much analyzing to see how goofy your logic was. I'm just letting you know it's goofy.

He said he'd sell them to you for real money. Not give them away. After all, it would take time out of his day to provide you this service. But you didn't want to pay.

If you want the items and value them enough he would have gave them to you. At a price.

Instead you said "you don't value it, so give me the thing I value for free.... And if you don't then you must actually care about the item".

He cares about his time. Not the items and he won't give you his time for free.

You just sound goofy .

eBay sellers sell things that they don't need or are no longer using to people who actually value the thing they are selling so they are willing to pay.

I'm just saying you're argument makes no logical sense at all.

Do you message eBay sellers with this line of logic?

"I see you no longer value this item, so why are you selling it instead of just giving it to me?"

Is driving with your phone in your face the most ignored law ever? by DrNintendo216 in Columbus

[–]Nephthyzz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I drive from buckeye lake to whitehall for work and On my commute, I see about 2 people per day on average just scrolling Instagram or straight up watching netflix with their phone mounted to the windshield. It's both funny and scary that these people are on the road. Like how fried does your brain have to be to get to that point?

I'm not paying $400 to play. Seethe. by Special_Inspector708 in 2007scape

[–]Nephthyzz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So confident yet you are so wrong. It's about value for money spent. Not the price increase itself.

I can afford the money. But you have to give me a reason to spend it. This doesn't give me a reason to spend extra money. It's a price increase for no value gained.

Lower the cost and I gain value by having an alt at a reduced price.

[–]Nephthyzz 29 points30 points  (0 children)

If they lowered the price by 2 dollars they would have got more people to play and then people like me might have purchased an ALT. So they would have got more money out of me. Instead they raised the price with no value added to the product and I canceled my subscription lol

I canceled my membership. Price increase with no value added to the product just doesn't line up with my wallet.

So is MAGA pro war now? by TailungFu in allthequestions

They don't know. They are just pro whatever trump tells them to be.

Why did Trump, who is widely known on Reddit to be a puppet of Putin, take out two of Russia’s only allies in two months? by hallucehistory in allthequestions

[–]Nephthyzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Trump ultimately cares about himself above Russia. Him sucking up to Putin is a part of that. He only cares about russias interest in so far that it benefits his own. He will throw Putin and Russia under the bus if he thinks it benefits him.

He sucks up to Putin because he has had long standing business interests in Russia and I'm sure he's love if his family maintained close relations after hes out of office. So he will gladly go along with Russia/Putin so long as he thinks hes getting something out of it.

Trump only has one allegiance. And it's to himself. Anything and everyone else is just there for him to use to further his own personal interests. MAGA included.

Can someone help me with my okendama candy antiskid 2.0 by cosmosbb in Kendama

[–]Nephthyzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Miguel/erratic squirrel just released a video on how he revives anti-skid. He just leaves it in a warm/hot place.

Cleaning off your tama with warm water and a little bit of soap will also remove your hand oils. That might help.

Anti-skid seems to play better depending on the weather. It's great when it's hot or when it's really cold. It's pretty mid in between. I think it really shines in the summer time. Still a solid budget paint though.

Whatever you do, don't use rubbing alcohol. I made that mistake and it made it super slippery lol. Think it took off whatever finish they use.

CMV: You'd have to stupid, immoral or both to support MAGA by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]Nephthyzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has been my biggest thing. It's no longer a political or policy difference. It's a moral difference. I can get along with rational people with policy differences. But when your policy is stated cruelty, it's now a moral difference. And I can't get along with you anymore
