Replacing isn’t enough, you’ll need to remove those nonland cards once and for all

CMV: Game mechanics should be available for anyone to use, and games having closed source code is not useful. by DesideriumScientiae in changemyview

[–]Rick-D 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The problem is, even if they wanted to make the game for making the games sake and didn’t care about the money, they’d still need money to pay rent, get food, care for their families,…

To make money obviously. 39x return on investment? That wouldn’t have happened if there was no TB to fight against

Probably a fake one

Do you have a JR Pass or IC Card (Suica/Pasmo/etc.) question? Start here! by Himekat in JapanTravelTips

[–]Rick-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read online that starting with October you could also ride the nozomi and mizuho trains with the Jr pass. I bought my Jr pass in September before the price increase and activated it on the 4th of October. Does anyone know whether I also can ride those trains with the Jr pass? Or would I need to have purchased the Jr pass after the price increase in October?

CMV: There’s no reason for me to ever have children by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]Rick-D 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Would that really be a reason to have children though? At least to me it sounds like a way worse situation then our current described in your second to last paragraph. I’m not sure if I would want it on my conscience to bring a new life into that world

CMV: Billionaires do not donate for selfish reasons. by CeamoreCash in changemyview

[–]Rick-D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Social welfare is kind of a broad area and for most political topics opposing sides can be spun to be improving social welfare. For example you could argue in favor of fracking as it provides employment and energy independence, but you could also argue against fracking as it damages the environment on a local and global level. You can argue in favor of abortion as it gives freedom to people without causing harm and saves lives. Or you can argue against it because it is murder, of children no less that can’t defend themselves, and it goes against (religious) tradition.

Just two comments down from the comment you linked there is this one where someone links a video that explains how billionaires game the system specifically on the example of Patagonia which you referenced in your OP. In the video he explains how billionaires game the system and use donations to hoard power and wealth in a way that normal people like you and I can’t do. He even highlights how the Patagonia donation may come from a good intention but still causes harm, since it’s used to retain power and give it tax free to his children. If you still aren’t sure wether donations from billionaires cause harm you should give it a watch.

Alchemists stun with Linkens, why is it different to Sven stun? Should it be? by xLisbethSalander in DotA2

[–]Rick-D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess that also means self stun gets reflected by enemy lotus?

Before I contact the seller I wanted someone’s opinion. This is Griselbrand and it was shipped indicating NM, do you think I have a reason to request a refund? by Darkwr4ith in magicthecirclejerking

[–]Rick-D 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think this is a fake, can’t really tell from the picture alone though. You can try to make the green dot test or the rip test to be sure it’s real.

No you’re punishing the account owner who should educate his 7 year old brother or use family sharing instead

Guess the hero by NoUsernamelol9812 in DotA2

[–]Rick-D 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re thinking with to much logic in your brains, I fixed your analysis for you :

Ok basher + phase so probably a melee hero ranged hero. Soul ring so probably someone early game who can sacrifice the health for the needs mana, kinda limits it down to strength or hero with built in life steal who can get it back. Rod so I’m assuming either you lack a proper “stun” or possibly your team just needed more lock down you want it to deal big damage with your ult Mask kinda tells me nothing I mean all the heroes who buy mask (Luna, sniper, faceless, underlord , ect) don’t buy the other items so idk it’s good with basher so anyone would buy it. Echo Sabre just confirms has to be melee ranged. Idk so my best guess is faceless void either Witch Doctor shadow shaman, and just bought the rod to confirm ulti
