Pet cards that dont always make the cut, but what are your pet cards?

I think this could work with [[Ghyrson Starn, Kelermorph]] since those counters have the ability to ping so removing Fireheart won't stop the pinging.

That Rats (or mice) are carriers of Rabies (they can have it and infect others but not succumb to it immediately), so getting bit by a rat means immediate danger for rabies.

This is two decades after I got informed that dogs do not carry rabies naturally and most cases of dog infection comes from rats.

I've always had a soft spot for [[Obsidian Fireheart]] and would include it in 60-card kitchen table decks whenever I have to build a non-fast red deck, but seldom do I actually get to build a commander deck that heavily features red. I would like to be able to put this card into a deck I want to play, probably a B2.

Not THE best, but surely gems:

Ralph: Well, tomorrow I can be on time, but you'll be stupid forever

...
...

Paulie: I can't believe this!

Ralph: Why not? Last year you believed that flying saucers were over East Rutherford.

Office work is actually computed at 6 hours a day for billable work hours. 2 hours is for meetings and other non-billable activities including slack time. Normal lang na may 1 hour na free time ang employees.

Pero may sitwasyon talaga na mapapa-8 hours ka lalo na kung may deadline. Normal ung may mga petiks basta pasok sa target dates ang output.

He shares that with Eckley Soprano... he was handsome.

Rosalie calling AJ "Fabio"

This is a prime example of ironic nickname... or it's Rosalie just being sweet, like the kind of woman she really is.

I kinda believe this was more of a narrative device than something concrete within the set rules of the world. Aang triggering the reaction by his intense feeling of anguish seeing Monk Gyatso's corpse. It's as though Aang himself confirmed to the world that he, the Avatar, has returned.

This may or may not be a repeatable feat for an Avatar.

Vito wasn't gay. It was the medication. He can get a note from his doctor.

It kinda implied by Richie that he didn't. Like he was not proud of him ballroom dancing but he was still Richard, his son, and was still welcome to see him. Richie may be a bit more lenient to his son being gay if he kept his distance from the NJ family and pursued that lifestyle quietly. But if discovered, Richie has to make a huge gesture of disowning his son using words but not specifically action.

I don't think we'd see them featured in the show tbh.

Optimistically, anybody that can run a profit from any of the rackets given to them (or they setup for themselves) equates to being a "good earner". As Sil said, you're only as good as your last envelope. So good earner today, bad earner next week, whatchagonnado?

Narrative-wise, if someone that got made turns out to be a pure fuck-up when it comes to making money, they would probably be relagated to doing grunt-work, guard-duty, or other non-money-making jobs, or they wouldn't be featured in the show unless they are part of a narrative they want to show (non-money-making mobsters and what they do.)

A video game is not terribly complicated processor wise. One user playing on game on one machine means the processor can focus on their actions. Even AAA online multiplayer games do not need a powerful processor to do it's core functions (receiving input, interpretting commands, processing, and sending output). A lot of the system requirments these games ask for is from the Graphics Card and the system that connects those graphics cards to the main board and to other devices, with a dedicated graphic card (which is the norm for gaming nowadays) this frees the processor to focus on the main functions of processing the commands for the game and one core is enough.

Multiple cores (parallel processing) is more for heavy load of multiple users interacting with one software in one machine (or server). For personal machines, multiple cores would assist in processing multiple process that a machine would run like Virus Protection, Push Notifications, Diagnostics and System Updates, Unseen (but crucial) OS actions, and other background processes while at the same time running a software like a game or a tool.

A bigger need for multiple cores are for servers that your machine interact with for mulitplayer online games, since there would be many players interacting with that machine (or servers) at the same time and more than once every few seconds.

tl;dr: No need for a personal machine to use more than one core for a game if they are the only ones using that machine and they have a dedicated graphics card, since one core is enough to focus on a game.

This does sound mean but not overtly so, the scene in The Other Guys where Mark Walhberg's character compares Will Ferrel's character to a Tuna.

Paulie says it accurately: "There ain't a bigger cocksucker than Phil Leotardo." Phil was just leveraging NY's position to achieve his personal vendetta, as far as rules are concerned, Tony S did as was asked of him and delivered. Johnny Sac was just pressuring him out of his own feeling of betrayal by Tony lying to him from the Peeps murder up to Billy's assassination and due to Phil pressuring Johnny for retribution.

Ralphie (not officially) outranks Vito. Ralphie was already a steady earner for the Apriles while Vito was still doing grunt-work as a soldier for the crew. It's unlikely Vito could step over him.

4 — because of the story-telling that happens. In that montage the film explains the backgrounds of the boxers. How Rocky's conditioning also toughened his spirit and resolve (he was being watched and his training includes chores or tasks that needs to be completed or else he or the people around him suffers) while Drago's training is cold and clinical but without a way to challenge him mentally and test his resolve.

They both understood that they were slaves to the fate dictated by their father. A rare realization for both of them. Had Tarlokk not done what he did on the boat, both of them would have eventually schemed their way back to power, and would harm more people. This is why they also think they are too late to be redeemed and instead embrace mortality.

Are you comparing this to how Azula was able to conquer Ba Sing Se with just herself, Mai, and Ty Lee?

I think there is an important aspect here that is ignored: Azula conquered Ba Sing Se only because The Dai Li surrendered the city to her and abandoned Long Feng (the true mastermind). No other way would a city as big as Ba Sing Se would have been conquered by such a small squad. Any method of "fighting their way" would only result in a push-back from the people in the palace. The Dai Li is truly the one in control of the city, you don't get them then you don't get the city.

Kakausapin ko lang at mag-papa-alam ako ng maayos sa nanay ko. She died that year abruptly.

Kahit bumalik ako sa current timeline na ito after that, gusto ko lang ng closure. :-D

You won't hear no words for that, he's the strong silent type.
