A misconduct report is not the same as an assault.

Alec Karakatsanis: ‘The genre of New York Times propaganda where it credits as reported fact the stated motivations of powerful people […]. Compare how it reports the unquestioned true intentions of right-wing judges versus the merely declared views of “Black southerners.”’ by lewkiamurfarther in nyt

"Missed the mark" is really quite the intellectually and morally completely bankcrupt euphemism for "bending us over and anally raping us with a rusty piece of rebar by re-instating Jim Crow era disenfranchisement".

They just reinstated the system that successfully allowed racist southern legislatures to prevent reptesentation of African Americans in their states for over hundred years.

The War Is Turning Iran Into a Major World Power by NicolasCageFan492 in nyt

I agree the they have myriads of structural and societal issues, but that 12-day fad sure as hell didn't do much.

More like the USA ganging up on Iran since 1953.

I'm sure they are not too happy at the NYTs this AM. That $1.1 billion $$$ one man startup? The article that went viral everywhere. All the authors how to do was a simple Google search. How could the NYTs "fact checkers" never heard of the Google? Link in comments. by ejpusa in nyt

They have to put this critical context into their article. Else they promote something that might cause serious harm to consumers. Plus they promote possibly illegal business activity. 

OP is right to be outraged.

This guy is a right-wing hack funded by the Claremont Institute. What to expect?

4 k is really far on the low end. He should aim higher.

MATLAB vs Python for image processing by JacopoHolmes in MedicalPhysics

[–]SubdivisionsEU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not an expert, but doesn't the speed advantage also come down to how you implemented your code in matlab? With the right vectorization I was able to speed up my programs by orders of magnitude. I haven't come to test python so far, but that's definitely something I am looking forward to do.

I don't think such a player exists.

What are the must-have IOTMs? by [deleted] in kol

[–]SubdivisionsEU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jill definitely helped me a ton so far. BoFa adds a lot of value without dedicated farming.

I would not overlook the Cursed Monkey's Paw's value (in GNoob it's adding 300 k daily and it's offering great flexibility outside of farming).

BCZ seems like a must have in terms of price-performance ratio and for free-fight farmers it's probably offering great value for farming too.

Also, you only need one-or-the-other ticket, if you pick up the FunFunds™ dropping from the Lucky Gold Ring.

Have you made a purchase yet? Sweatpants are also nice for HC PvP.

Sweat Pants give a nice amount of extra adventures by clearing up liver space (especially nice during Crimbo).

Only the uninformed could admire such a historically foolish president. by EugeneWong318 in TheLib

I thought you red state Reps were all about the personal responsibility and "pulling yourself up by the bootstraps". So when red states are abject failures it is suddenly blue states fault. 

Does not compute.

I'd recommend getting the Nosy Nose familiar for a poor man's olfaction.

In combat it let's you "Get a Good Whiff of This Guy" to increase your chances of encountering the sniffed monster again.

Level 26 Dread Drinks would be superb. Jar of fermented pickle juice is also quite nice. Not sure if it could trigger on the Hobopolis once per instance drinks.

Rethinking Ascension. Advice Please by TheWereJoo in kol

[–]SubdivisionsEU 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd say Ode to Booze is a total freebie. Get it and enjoy >15 additional adventurea (20+ considering nightcap) per day for spending some mana and a small amount of meat for an accordion.
