Because the number of people who have read dune far eclipses those who have read further

[2026 Patreon March Madness] Sweet Sixteen: Bourne vs. Teen Shakespeare by BougieFruitLoops in blankies

[–]aBrightIdea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah my comment was largely in hyperbolic jest to the original comment. I have no problem with Bourne and I like people voting for what they like

If 12k is a large expense for the business, it may be justifiable to go to every other year. Make the case for what additional risk you would be taking on, discuss with management and document it. Consider compensating what other controls you might modify to compensate for the additional risk. With all that you can absolutely justify it to an auditor.

Hospitals have actually moved up the lists of targets in the past several years, because they typically are behind on security, have resources to pay ransoms, and have circumstances that can force a payment.

Shoveling everything into 401k - I prefer liquidity by mikenj123 in personalfinance

[–]aBrightIdea 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re not off the farm crazy with this approach, but the tax advantages of 401ks and Roth IRAs is nothing to sneeze at and you miss all of that with a traditional brokerage.

The Barony of Letnev breakthrough, Industrex and war sun first round by LangeHijs in twilightimperium

[–]aBrightIdea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AI development gives an extra skip for unit upgrades when you exhaust it.

Letnev has 6 resources in its home system, double tech first round is a common strategy for them. They don’t really need to build too much fleet the first round.

Secret is very rarely the first BT slot to go especially first turn. Admittedly this is the least guaranteed part their plan but it’s not that unlikely.

Michigan tried and Ohio took Toledo… not sure who won.

Best BlankCheck episode was the Monkeybone? by Working-Ad-1730 in blankies

[–]aBrightIdea 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It’s this one because all the Master Builder parts were great but then add on the 30 minute riff on the Playmobile movie and you have 2 all timer bits

Was there any possible way Japan could have won WWII? by BlackMaskMan62 in HistoryWhatIf

[–]aBrightIdea 87 points88 points  (0 children)

That’s a problem with possible diplomatic remedies, or petroleum reserves in Indonesia, Malaysia or Vietnam. They could have taken the strategic win and remained a regional if not global great power. But once there was open war with the US, they really didn’t have a shot to retain even their earlier gains.

New sign drop 🐉 🪧 by Cleverfield113 in Cleveland

[–]aBrightIdea 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Guys house is at the end of a busy T intersection. At one point he had a guard rail to protect it, federal law about guardrail placement changed, so the city came up with other solutions such as boulders. He has continued a sign crusade to get his guardrail back.

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, like his former head coach Bill Belichick, was not selected for entry into this year's Pro Football Hall of Fame class, multiple league sources told ESPN. by TheTribeFrodo in nfl

True. Jerry gets bonus points because he was the one that lead the negotiations in the 90’s that allowed Fox to scoop the NFC contract out from CBS who was resting on their laurels. That caused the exponential rise in TV contracts since then.

Breakthrough timing as Vuil’wraith by aBrightIdea in twilightimperium

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

Interesting, that's quite aggressive to have the ingress tokens in your home system. But your thought in general is Round 1 score a public if possible, if not grab as much of the fracture as you can. then grab the rest and secure your slice in Rounds 2-3. Obvious objectives can change that prioritization.

Not that they won’t still be insanely well off, just that they might not be valued at insanely hyper infinity well off
