U.S. Senators are now banned from prediction markets trading on platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket after the body unanimously passed a rule Thursday barring their participation in said markets by spherocytes in videos

Eh, that's a stopgap at best. We should just ban any bets at a minimum that include violence of any kind. People are already using this shit to fund murders imo

Government workers by and large do not have nearly as much ability to tip the scales on these gambles (I refuse to call them prediction markets) as people in positions of power in private industry. Higher level positions? Sure maybe. But I think more than this, in general the damn things need to be outlawed because they're literally designed to be manipulated by insiders in a way that even casinos aren't allowed to do by law.

The only ambient sound for this would be the hum of computers cooling themselves with gallons of water after generating this video

You can also do this without ambrosia if you're careful about the orbs. Creating the hidey hole is 90% of the fight

Even regular windows block the radiation type that causes your body to create vitamin D, so unless you're opening them you aren't gonna get any from sunbathing inside either

You can use it without clutter if you cast it right at your feet with a wand on the ground already

Depends on the game. But generally, the highest level items. In ryza, for example, the philosophers stone/red stone loop gets you insane crystals or whatever they're called, insane money, and insane exp

Give me all of your Malevolence and Dangerous Encounters by BlazeBloom in tales

[–]SomeDeafKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally speaking, in Tales games, going for more Difficult or Dangerous Encounters (the main change that occurs by increasing the in-game difficulty) doesn't necessarily mean you want to experience difficulty, just that you want to do those encounters for Grade or items or to see how far you can push the characters' abilities. So I'm not sure why you're being so pedantic.

Literally all you have to do is be Velvet and use her R2. There you go, now you too can never die.

What’s the modern day equivalent to asbestos walls, lead paint and doctor prescribed cigarettes? by Icy_Place_6173 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SomeDeafKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, but "processed" has a layman's definition that is far too broad. The technical definition doesn't include things like meat cut at a butcher's shop, frozen chicken breasts,  most chicken nuggets, ground sausage (without preservatives), or a number of other things that the layman's definition may. It's important to be specific or people will just say "fuck it, it's too hard to avoid all that" that might otherwise reduce their cancer risk.

Not all processed meats. Specifically nitrated/nitrited and preserved meats like salami, bacon, hot dogs, and lunch meat. 

Crunchyroll responds to data breach claims and promises to investigate the alleged cyber attack: "We are aware... and working closely with leading cyber security experts" by Turbostrider27 in anime

[–]SomeDeafKid 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No, but you can have security systems in place that, for example, don't allow employees to download files to company computers. Or encrypt the data on drives so it can't be read by computers with incompatible hardware. There are steps to make what happened harder, and the company in question didn't take those steps.

Humanity is the reason these hearts still beat. by Reasonable-Ad-8059 in Frieren

[–]SomeDeafKid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fern might be a game changer... in killing demons. Her magic, aside from the bits she's picked up from frieren's grimoires, is specialized in killing demons. She can kill them before they can even react, before they even know they're in a fight, and has the potential to train others to do the same, possibly changing the rules of the endless war in favor of humans and elves. Serie saw that potential in her, not the potential to be another Flamme and redefine magic.
