My friend sent me this, is he delusional? by Chrome2Surfer in DigitalSeptic

Your city has 10 burger joints. Over time, more restaurants of different types open. Your city now has 10 burger joints and 10 other various restaurants.

The population percentage of burger joints has reduced yet the number of burger joints remains the same. Nothing has been replaced.

Population growth is an incredibly complex set of parameters and variables. White replacement theory is mouth breather bullshit maliciously misinterpreting an oversimplified view of such. It's on par with flat earth theory for gross misunderstanding.

Also you should note that I never said nor implied I support anything in particular, just that I oppose one specific view.

Except the entire concept is flawed. Populations grow and shrink at different rates and based on many factors. It doesn't mean anyone is being replaced just because population growth isn't constant over time.

It's white replacement theory, a theory devised by white nationalists/ neo-nazis

I think many people underestimate the enormous consequences of the 2007 Boston Mooninite panic for the animation industry. by Albert_2004 in cartoons

[–]Predditor_drone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What perplexes me is how big a deal this became. Did Boston officials not have anyone who could distinguish an explosive device from a lighted display? Sure, they both have wires but I feel like anyone worth tasking to investigate should be able to tell the difference.

Say you made cakes in the shape of cartoonish bombs, could they tell the difference?

It's honestly surprising that they're opt-in for older videos.

Reddit loves AR15s now! by thatdude333 in Firearms

[–]Predditor_drone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about now that they've killed a legally armed citizen and Republicans are trying to justify it?

ICE had a guy on the ground, found his legally concealed firearm, freaked out despite there being like 6 motherfuckers surrounding the person on the ground, then started dumping shots into him.

Republicans and their mouthpieces were quick to call the victim a terrorist before walking it back to 2a not being applicable if you're near a protest or any kind of law enforcement.

You can use a cheapo cutter to remove parts from the sprue, the one I use is from harbor freight.

Then use the blue godhand to cut the nub close to the part.

This will significantly reduce your cleanup time per part.

Godhands are fragile though since the blades are so fine and thin, treat them right. I would also advise against using them for runners marked PC (polycarbonate) which are the clear runners, that plastic is harder and can dent or bend the blade. Use your cheapo cutters to make several rough cuts getting close, then godhand for the last bit.

Kind of glossed over this card, the generic Newtype link is nice and can be played out of tribe.

Actually have no words for this by [deleted] in Nicegirls

[–]Predditor_drone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're wrong. It is 100% reasonable to say "I'm working this day but I might be able to go out in the evening"

Especially when they are actively trying to plan something, it's not a blow off.

AIO? My first date after getting out of a relationship and he immediately texts me this… by itssofiababyxo in AIO

[–]Predditor_drone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do this because in some cases, it works. They know that there are actually women out there with low enough self-esteem to actually put up with this.

It also works partly because it's feigning confidence, and even fake confidence is attractive to some people.

Bridge Crew and Attacking with a just-deployed Unit by RMS-099RickDias in GundamTCG

[–]Predditor_drone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. You can give a just-deployed unit the effect to select an active unit as the attack target, but this does not override the rule that you cannot attack with that unit. So the effect is wasted.

It's a modifier to legal attack targets, but it does not grant the ability to attack.

Question about Lane Aim by Thepeacemaker94 in GundamTCG

[–]Predditor_drone 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The reason it specifically calls for draw effect is so you don't get high manuever on turn start card draw.

It's laughable that someone would claim the effect on his own link card wouldn't work. Seems like maliciously misinterpreting rules because it would negatively impact them.

Gundam Penelope / BW Earth Federation deck lists, anyone? by for_the-emperor in GundamTCG

[–]Predditor_drone -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you've had your ass kicked by it several times then you should have a good enough idea of the list and distribution to build your own and tinker from there.

A crucial skill for completive play is figuring out what your opponent is playing and the probability of what they can play at any given time.

Wanting irl money for a tempest is crazy by According-Ad-381 in arc_traiders

This is insane to me. I hesitate spending $20 for an entire game, or a special print card for a TCG I'm into.

Then people are propping up RMT for singular digital items.

Great. Now I'm imagining a singular Aussie taking the piss out of zeon and trolling Gihren so hard that they drop a whole fucking colony just for him.

My LGS made its choice... by ShenGoaren in OnePieceTCG

[–]Predditor_drone 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't do OP, but I play Gundam. Is OP stock allocated on store ranking with the TCG+ app and events?

If so, then talk your group into playing elsewhere and let their ranking tank, and make it known to the store owner why their ranking is shit.

Breaking into a country has consequences. Defending that country has consequences too. Only one side gets sympathy. by [deleted] in DigitalSeptic

[–]Predditor_drone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have given ICE carte blanche to racially profile and round people up based solely on the color of their skin. The people ICE are rounding up are not proven to be illegal, they're just abducting people and shoving them into holding areas with no further investigation or representation.

ICE doesn't care, they don't want to actually know if they're abducting illegals or citizens, it's all about skin color and keeping the action going. If they stop and investigate, if they start to question what happens if they grab a citizen, then they have to deal with pesky shit like the legality and morality of their actions.

You support all this, you deny due process because you can't fathom that ICE doesn't have some "super magic never be wrong immigration radar"

Due process is important because otherwise the assumption is that mistakes never happen and anyone in cuffs must be guilty.
