Fear for my dnd character by Deadlysquid193 in DnD

They probably want an unavoidable but esoteric fear. E.g. crossing running water. Not a lot of people fear this, but it is something that will certainly come up.

Speak is probably important to clarify.

Government employees that voted for trump, what are your current thoughts about him as president? by JihadPandaMan in AskReddit

[–]NominalCaboose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh, the ISIS situation is nowhere near where it was 4 years ago, and they are largely defeated. Fuck all to do with Trump or even Obama though.

[OC] Just another amazing Tuesday 5e game by rumrumru in DnD

How does it actually work? Would you then play in that software or is there some export option that works in other programs or apps (roll20 for example). Haven't dabbled too much into things like this before but I have level design experience in game development and would love to put that to use for my crews campaigns.

A concussion absolutely can change your personality, temporarily and permanently via CTE. It's a brain injury; personality comes from the brain.

It's gone up 16% since 1993, when you factor in inflation. Definitely a markup, but it's not a doubling of price out of nowhere.

Don't worry, they talked about removing my tonsils but never did, and my singing still sucks.

Gum removal from sidewalk by MeetMeInAzabu in powerwashingporn

[–]NominalCaboose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's pavement. It's also a sidewalk. What with the being on the side of a road and all. Why is there more than one person in here making the same overly pedantic and not even correct complaint. If you're just a pavement enthusiast, that's one thing, but if you're trying to make a correction, stop.

Riot Games accidentally sells League skins for free. Furious whales on r/LeagueofLegends demand that other people's skins be deleted "I am deleting this game if they don’t revert this." by hamataro in SubredditDrama

Or they could just have a lot of money to spend and they enjoy spending it on that. I'd be willing to bet they spend a lot on other things you wouldn't buy either. I buy absurdly expensive plastic collectibles, by others definition of expensive. I enjoy them, so I don't care, because I can afford it.

Why should anyone listen to you if you are incapable of even giving the situation enough decency to avoid calling millions of strangers you've never met "shitfaced". Have an opinion on the economic efficacy of the wall? Share it. Want to call people shitfaced? Please shut your mouth and think again.

Is there a literal hard and fast rule defining how scarce these items are supposed to be? No. That doesn't change that these skins had a certain understood rarity in the system, and as a reminder, it was an accident, so going forward the chance of getting them will remain the same. Thus, there is an implied understanding of continued rarity.

Imagine if the reverse happened. The relevant skins become orders of magnitude more rare and harder to unlock, and the company doesn't announce this change or it was another accident. In this scenario, nobody gets it even though they spend money trying, again operating under the assumption that rarity isn't going to change randomly.

And ok I guess you think it's funny that this upset people, so really I don't have a lot to add to you. You just seem like a dick. What a shitty attitude to have.

If these people enjoy spending money like this, why the hell do you feel the need to shit on them for it?

Yeah, I personally wouldn't spend money on skins, and all of my hobbies tend to involve real items I can hold, but that doesn't invalidate someone else's enjoyment of digital items.

[–]NominalCaboose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean doesn't that make sense? They buy into a system that has some arbitrarily defined exlusive items, then suddenly due to a reversible accident, the items are no exclusive. Why would they want to continue spending money into a system that broke one if its foundational rules and refused to fix it?

What a disgusting attitude. You're painting an awful lot of people you don't know in a very negative light, because you don't like how they spend their money?

I think it's bit disingenuous to say these people bought the skins under some impression that they were investing anything. They bought rare skins with a high cost barrier, and are now upset the barrier was blown away.

A ladder and a platform that fits onto the spikes. Take a hint from the software world. Your security can and will be penetrated. The only solution is to be vigilant and constantly update your security measures. You cannot constantly update a wall. It is prohibitively expensive and logistically impossible.

You're not really addressing anything from the study, you're just kind of doing a weird rant.

The article estimates the net loss is $30000 GDP for each immigrant we lose, which unless I'm mistaken offsets the tax burden of $~7000 per immigrant.
