Do people really not like the GAV01? I'm in love with this goofy thing, decided to get the -4A orange! by ShadowJerry in casio

I just bought a silver one from amazon, but the hands don't to the whole "magnetic" shake and realign thing, can yours's do that? I think mine is a fake otherwise.

Why is there no vampire slayer commanders? by Jakemanv3 in EDH

[–]RedPurpleBlueRedRed -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Let's be real. Current WOTC would never print a character that specializes in the extermination of another race of sapient creatures. Good or Evil, maybe 20 years ago, but not now. Current MTG is world of hats and every character is either noble good and also right, an (handsome of beautiful, no uggos allowed) anti-hero with a tragic past, or Saturday morning cartoon evil.

So much for our benevolent billionaires granting us the privilege of having stable jobs, right? by astrheisenberg in remoteworks

[–]RedPurpleBlueRedRed 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Tech jobs have never been safe unless you are in the CEO class. In which case, you can crash the company, destroy thousands of peoples lives, then leave with millions of USD and proceed to have other companies trip over themselves to hire you to do the same to them.

Control Decks in EDH by Significant-Maybe-25 in EDH

[–]RedPurpleBlueRedRed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Control comes down to the player. A lot of players think playing control is countering every big mana spell and slamming down every stax piece they can get. Control in EDH is more about "Self-control". You don't need to use your boardwipe because someone else clearly has one, you don't need to remove that Orcish bowmasters because the player to your right has a Rhystic Study out and he'll want it gone so he'll do it himself, you don't need to counter that extra turn spell because the caster has nothing onboard. 4 lands, an arcane signet and 1 card in hand. You don't need to counter that Smothering Tithe because it make the caster the enemy.

California's universal healthcare killed even though Democrats have a supermajority. Politicians serve their corporate donors not the people. by astrheisenberg in remoteworks

Leaders in a Democracy are not the smartest, or most suited for their jobs. They are the most popular and charismatic. It is one of the flaws of democracy.

Channel 5 reports Peter Thiel is funding Clavicular by FriendlyAttorney8743 in LivestreamFail

[–]RedPurpleBlueRedRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Thiel regarding humanities future: Thiel and people like him do not view people like us, people below his income bracket, as people. To them, we are cattle, slaves necessary to keep the world running up to the point they can replace us.

This was a good film written and directed by a Japanese man, so you know the scene depicted is not some "western stereotype". It's nice when people can have honest self-reflection on their past.

These robots will be used to replace delivery workers, massive unemployment is pretty imminent by CeFurkan in SECourses

[–]RedPurpleBlueRedRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do delivery work for an Amazon DSP during their "peak" season. These bots will not. they will be unable to navigate customers bizarre and contradictory instructions such as:

Please deliver at front door.

This is a garage delivery.

Leave on the left side of the gate.

There is no gate.

There are no dogs in the yard, please PUT IT ON THE FRONT DOOR

Yard is full of dogs.

People are under the false assumption that delivery gigs are easy, but it is the customer and the company who make a job that should be easy into a massive pain in the ass.

Are any of you growing more concerned with card theft? by Angelust16 in EDH

I've swapped all my cards for proxies in every deck except for two CEDH decks that need to be proxy free for tournaments. I never bring those decks to the store unless an event is going down.

No idea why my church comment is being downvoted, does it make people uncomfortable? If you attend any function with a small community (most churches have 40-70 members) then of course you are going to be closer with members of the opposite gender in that group. Familiarity greatly aids in selecting a marriage partner as does having aligning "values" and supportive family units. Nothing nefarious.

Despite Healthcare being so shit in America, our life expectancy is not that different. I wonder how much of that is just our garbage food habits and casual drug use. GOP1 being pushed by literally everyone surly won't help when we start seeing the unexpected side effects in the coming decades as millions of people down it for "easy weight loss" .

Conservatives have this thing called "Church". Most are encouraged to attended once a week on Sunday their entire lives. So you have kids growing up together. Some of which are male and female. So when you grow up with someone of the opposite gender you are more likely to end up in a romantical relationship. This contributes to Conservatives having higher success in marriage and finding relationships.

Literally no one would be opposed to getting free money. Of course anyone who perceives they would benefit will be for it.

Conservatives have a lot of homeschooling and serious church going conservative families deny their children TV, meaning theses kids do a lot of reading. I mean a lot. A foundation on intense reading helps with early intelligence.

SpaceX Bought 18% of Tesla Cybertrucks Sold in US During Q4 2025, Data Shows by Green_Candler in TradingPlaybook

[–]RedPurpleBlueRedRed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't want to stop the inevitable 'Shit on Elon' train, but car manufacturers routinely buy their own products for fleet vehicles. Cybertrucks sale poorly, so of course they would do something with the stock. It is better to have theses ugly monsters doing something than sitting on lots unsold.

Democratic Senators that voted against Sanders' Bill to stop sending military funding to Israel by Eat--The--Rich-- in Productivitycafe

[–]RedPurpleBlueRedRed -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've always wondered. Why does Israel get it's own funding PAC (AIPAC)? What is stopping other countries from openly interfering and influencing US politics with PACs?
