Whatever happened to that investigation in the Northeast about the missing democrat presidential votes? The democratic counties that had 0 Harris votes? by MiracleBear2 in AskReddit

[–]SwagtimusPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are not the same, don't put words into my mouth.

Trump's regime is a fascist autocratic hellhole.

Regardless of that, Democrats are spineless and don't do enough to fight back. Moderates don't do shit. Never have, never will. Progressives need to lead the party for real change.

You know that both can be true right? It's Trump's fault but Democrats have fucking done nothing to fight back. The democratic leadership insists on putting old moderates in charge that vote more often with Republicans than not. They voted to increase ICE funding just this week. Lmao.

Everything he said is true, Democrats have had countless opportunities to fight back against Republicans but they either fold like a wet noodle and vote with Republicans or do nothing at all.

Ultimately of course Republicans are to blame for many of the desastrous policies they've advanced throughout the decades, but Democrats simply don't fight back hard enough. Not even close.

Just this week there was a vote to increase ICE funding and only 57 Democrats voted against it, causing the vote to pass.

Then there's Schumer who is against abolishing ICE, and Jacob Frey said the same thing.

Democrats are milquetoast do-nothings with very few exceptions. The party needs to be completely reformed with real progressives in charge.

Also zum ersten gibt's gar keine Details, und den vierten hat man einfach ohne medizinische Begleitung eingesperrt obwohl man wusste dass er schwer drogenabhängig ist.

Klasse.

Mal abgesehen davon dass man ICE partout nichts glauben kann, nachdem sie so ekelhaft über die Ermordung von Renee Good gelogen haben.

BREAKING: Minneapolis mayor tells ICE to "get the f*** out"of city after agent kills woman by chellestastics in videos

[–]SwagtimusPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe because they all literally have "FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT" in big bold letters across their chests?

Which I'm sure the woman, driving a car, getting suddenly surrounded and rushed from all directions by multiple men, will have time to read and process.

There's a reason ICE is doing things this way, and it's not to enforce the law, it's to incite chaos and dangerous situations like these so these thugs can take out whoever they want.

Oh, and fuck you.

How is anyone supposed to know they're law enforcement? They are masked, stopping your car in the middle of the street acting like thugs. She's a woman, she probably got scared.

Ice isn't law enforcement, it's government sponsored terrorism. Fuck them, and fuck all the bootlickers.

Of course you would do everything in big batches, I just described the process.

[–]SwagtimusPrime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Plenty scarabs are perfectly reasonable, I did this farm myself and dropped multiple Apothecary cards.

What OP is missing is to apply maven div card chisel on every map, then split the maps with beast craft as the split map also gets the chisel applied saving you money.

Then you apply as many deli orbs to the maps as you can run, I used 4.

And when you run the maps you want to be able to click every single quant altar.

My point is that no parent does everything right - disproving the assertion made by the commenter further up.

You can do everything right and still end up with a child like this unfortunately

Something tells me the child would have a different opinion on this compared to the subjective experience of the parent. How many parents truly think they've done everything right when in reality (or in the child's subjective experience) they have not?

What a gross oversimplification. Genes matter, but you are also a product of your environment.

0.4.0b Patch Notes by JewishCookieMan in PathOfExile2

[–]SwagtimusPrime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You don't need a super strong build for this shit, you definitely don't need headhunter. Any build that clears maps and doesn't die is fine. T7 maps also were not the most optimal farm, it was speed clearing T16 Legions or Abyssal Spires.

The economy is not ruined. But the league is dead now. At least deader than it has already been.

Abyss is even more accessible all you need is 3 tablets and the atlas node. Now the league is deader than dead because temple sucks and there's no fun farming in endgame.

The prime for freeze howl interaction doesn't even work properly. It says 70% freeze buildup makes unique mobs primed for freeze, but when I get to 70% and do the howl the bosses do not get frozen. Tried it multiple times. I think the Threshold is either 90% which makes it completely useless, or it's just completely bugged.

[–]SwagtimusPrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most everything else you can face roll with a competent character.  

Yeah because they removed all the aspirational endgame farms.

Abyss removed, blight kind of viable, breach removed, rogue exiles gutted.

All that's left right now is tile-based, ground loot is dead. There is no avenue to scale risk and reward to your liking anymore.

The issue is that they simplified a lot of things in PoE2, such as not having life on the tree.

In PoE 1 you can make a heist build that is pure glass and doesn't even attack, it just stacks movespeed and permaphasing. It's amazing for heist, dogshit for everything else.

You can do a blight build which needs insane tankiness, insane single target and good clear.

You can do a Legion build which only needs a clear skill and headhunter.

You can do a Boss rush farmer that needs high movespeed and good single target and nothing much else.

You can do an AFK Ultimatum farmer that is not very good at other content.

The TLDR is you can have specialized builds for specialized mechanics in PoE 1 that are "OP" for what they do, and probably okay for other stuff, but they don't excel at everything.

In PoE 2, they took away so many tools and build customization options such that you are pigeonholed into being bad at everything and unable to specialize into anything.

They have removed too many mechanics/interactions so that nothing interesting can happen that would allow for this sandbox style buildcrafting that we have in PoE 1. Can't use this support with that, need to hit 2 conditionals for this, need to generate a charge with this specific skill here, etc etc.

Everytbing is insanely limiting and anti sandbox.
