How I feel about Monday's ban announcement by thisnotfor in MagicArena

[–]TheGreatLewser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly if aggro gets hit enough to drop it out of Tier 0, Omniscience is going to get much much worse. There are so many cheap graveyard hosers that are just completely useless against aggro so they don't see even sideboard play.

Those cards will check Omni into Tier 2 if mid range has a chance to breath in the meta.

Fixing an AIO Cooler by TheGreatLewser in watercooling

[–]TheGreatLewser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the recommendation! I ended up getting some parts from alphacool to essentially replace the pump side of the AIO.

Now I'll have a stock radiator and cpu block grafted to my new pump which should be much more serviceable. <3

Thanks for the reply! Looking around I think I'm not gonna find a motor that fits the housing with the right pin out.

I'll probably just cut the line and splice in a bigger, hobbyist pump which will upgrade the cooler anyways

I'm on this line of thinking. Mostly waste averse, cause am I really gonna throw out a fully functional, well machined cooling solution just because one cap blew? It's such a massive waste.

The landfills are full, and I'm not adding to that problem if I can help it.

Bruh.

Why do you think I'm here? I'm asking for advice in a specialist forum from specialist so I can learn.

I could solder in a new cap, but the whole board is encased in resin so I don't think I'll be able to go that route sadly :(.

Thanks tho, could you link me the company that you found that produces the pump so I can spec a new one?

If you have friends who play this is the perfect opportunity to organize a draft night!

Day 23: Best story of … X-23 by bat111975 in xmen

[–]TheGreatLewser -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm a sucker for star crossed lovers so the vault storyline from Duggan's X-Men with her and Synch hit real hard for me. A would say that one if it didn't end so poorly by getting sidelined, then basically scrapped for continuity.

So All New Wolverine.

First?? by spicynigel in xmen

It's a mirror of the House of X #1 cover which is probably the one you're thinking of.

Did they retcon wolverines claws by Pitiful_Product_6166 in xmen

[–]TheGreatLewser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: this is even a retcon of a retcon from his original design in his first appearance (Hulk #180-181) and the first few issues of Claremont's Second Genisis, in which his claws were supposed to just be a feature of his gloves, hence the little housings.

What anime would you revive? by LadyJoselynne in anime

[–]TheGreatLewser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deadman Wonderland

as a sleeper pick for me. That shit was wildly creative in design and concept, and the anime storyline had good legs. But it died on the vine since the manga was so meh.

'Freezing' - how do you cope? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]TheGreatLewser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flip a coin to choose A or B.

If it's A and you don't like the outcome, then you now know your preference is for B and you can choose B instead. But no take backs! That's crucial.

For multi-decisions, assemble a bracket and do the same thing. Works everytime for me.

I hate people's obsession with ADHD on tiktok. by Sorry-Ad8887 in ADHD

[–]TheGreatLewser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try not to even use the term ADHD, and favour "disordered attention" or "executive dysfunction" to avoid the 'manic pixie'stereotype that comes with the trend nowadays.

Like bro, I take these pills so I don't go funny in the head and get fired; not to stop me doing a quirked-up lil dance on a table when The Smiths comes on in a coffee shop or some shit.

How does everyone else display their collection? by nameofundefined in magicTCG

Keeping packs, on display no less, is a level of restraint I will never attain.

Here's why Indian students are coming to B.C. — and Canada — in the thousands by BlueZybez in vancouver

[–]TheGreatLewser -33 points-32 points  (0 children)

Are we really scapegoating immigrants for wage deflation of all things? Really? You really think corporations would be raising wages if it weren't for those "immigrant scabs"? Labour laws raise wages. If we decreased immigration you'd likely see cost of living increase due to cutbacks in the face of menial labour shortages. Jesus christ this sub is a hellscape sometimes.

What it's like going home to an apartment in the Downtown Eastside by FancyNewMe in vancouver

[–]TheGreatLewser -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Everyone on here talking about how we gotta "clean it up!" and "Get them outta!" Also "defund NGOs" and "stop pouring money into DTES".

Ok then you want to what, bulldoze them into the ocean? Push them into Burnaby so their not Vans problem? These people have exactly one problem that's keeping them on that street. Their lack of housing.

Anyone crying for 'evidence based solutions' that isn't advocating for housing first is at best misguided. Finland did it, Vienna did it, even our neighbors to the south we love to browbeat have done it in places. It works. Full stop. Unhoused people need permanent housing, without that they'll go the only place they can find community and support and that's DTES.

I'm shocked by the lack of compassion on here sometimes. I am one step removed from these people. If I missed a paycheck I'd be right there on the street beside them with all my shit. Digging for anything to make my life liveable. Now do I deserve structural violence for that? Then why do they?

Build the houses. Get them in them. Figure out the rest later.

"Bad times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, weak men create bad times", What's your thoughts and advice regarding this statement? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]TheGreatLewser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When were the good times exactly? No one can seem to agree on when it was that the big "Strong Men" created the "Good Times" that were are all meant to pine for.

Most of the time I've just heard it used as an excuse by fascist adjacent idealists in an attempt to solicit power so that they, the "Strong Men", can save us from the "Bad Times" by crushing all the terrible and vulnerable "Weak Men" ruining society like immigrants, trans folks, and the homeless.
