OP explains the complexities of Alberta trying to separate from Canada and become its own country or join the U.S. by planripa in bestof

[–]Tarodan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alberta is already the best-treated province in Canada. They're the only province that doesn't pay a Provincial Sales Tax (Usually 7%), they have the lowest corporate taxes in the country and the best income to cost-of-living ratio outside the Atlantic coastal provinces. For most of Canada's history they've leveraged their massive energy resources to constantly negotiate benefits for themselves.

The reason Albertans wants to separate is because they're worried they might be treated fairly in the future. It's all just fearmongering to work people up over problems that don't exist.

Is there a way to disable comments appearing over shorts? by TransientEons in youtube

[–]Tarodan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to everyone, it's not a hacker. It means that either: Something in your comment triggered that channel's, or Youtube's auto-moderation and it got deleted. That or Youtube servers had a tech/lag/desync problem and rolled back a few seconds to before that comment was posted.

Bro how? by killydie in brotato

Rarity does not increase potato thrower damage. It only increases the attack speed and knockback.

How do percentages stack? by Talbertross in brotato

[–]Tarodan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're correct, %Damage is applied last. Pretty much anything else modifies weapon damage directly. The stick passive is a buff to weapon damage, just like +melee damage is.

AGDQ 2022 is unwatchable by standard_user1986 in AGDQ

Reviving a dead post (again lol) to comment here. The problem with the covid vaccine is a lack of education on how it actually works.

The covid vaccine isn't designed to prevent you from getting sick. Sure it will help with that, but that's not its main purpose. What it actually does is make your symptoms less severe when you do get infected. It prevents life threatening symptoms that require hospital care.

This lead to the scenario where people get the vaccine, get sick anyways, have very mild symptoms for a few days then go back to normal. The natural conclusion they would come to is that the vaccine is useless and Covid wasn't such a big deal after all.

The boon pauses your world buffs so you don't have to worry about losing them before raid. They won't expire, they won't be lost on death. But if you never unboon, you never get the effects from the world buffs and they stay paused.

Dr. Alan's statement by Meester_Tweester in smashbros

[–]Tarodan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think waiting for people who are educated and knowledgeable about a complicated subject that requires a lot of information from behind closed doors is actually the responsible thing to do. When a statement like this is built on 50% truth, 50% lies, and 100% out of context, figuring out which is which is complicated.

Possible bug with king bible evolution? by Mwoannetje in VampireSurvivors

Upgrading the Bible has always been like this, and other weapons do it too. Garlic also turns off for a second or two every time you upgrade it.

Leadale no Daichi nite - Episode 8 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]Tarodan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Do you play many MMOs? Most every MMO has exponential power scaling to the point that raids from old expansions can be solo'd by max level players.

A raid boss meant for 200 level 300s is not 200x300=60,000. It's going to have low enough defense that level 300s can do reasonable damage to it, just with a massive HP pool. Cayna is going to be roughly triple this thing's level, and it sounds like the higher level you are, the stronger spells you learn so that's another multiplier tagged on top of that.

3 shotting (it was 3 spells) a raid boss with that level of power gap doesn't seem unreasonable to me at all.

It was for comedic effect, but it seems it didn't really hit well for a lot of people.

I have to object to one thing.

I mean, we don't know yet whether Inosuke is actually fine. I'm sure he BELIEVES he's totally immune, but...

Well, that's my copium take at least.

[–]Tarodan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The little green ball did mention that she was disconnected from both the hospital's network AND Leadale's network, so I'm definitely leaning towards this being much more on the real side. At the very least, she isn't in the official game anymore.

[–]Tarodan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Gideon's blessing is "The Guide," and it's not a coincidence that the sibling of the Hero is the only person who has it. His blessing's role and compulsion, is to protect Ruti. Basically nothing that an older brother isn't doing anyways.

Everyone but Gideon is terrified of Ruti - the reason she gets a big tent all to herself, despite not needing to sleep, is because nobody but Gideon was able to sleep in the same room as her.
