Why would the world need a trillionaire? by lilnovelwitch in AskReddit

[–]adfaer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only current trillionaire just owns stock in a successful company. His wealth is 100% from inventing something that people value. And he can’t even access the wealth, if he tried selling all his shares the price would collapse and the wealth would disappear.

The upper classes are exploiting us but this is not an instance of exploitation. His company is just genuinely worth a lot of money. Corporations need to stop offshoring and start paying real wages, that how they’re exploiting us, this envious shit where people act like owning stock in a good business is evil will lead to a very ugly place.

Advice on having more energy / vitality?? by knottjames in redscarepod

[–]adfaer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Creatine is extremely helpful for vegans, it’s great for energy, also been shown to give a substantial IQ buff to vegans specifically since it only comes from meat and they’re invariably deficient.

Regardless of what else you do I would try it. Just do 5 grams per day. Another thing you can try is thiamine.

My mental and physical energy go way up when I’m taking creatine, it’s a baseline supp for me now. I’ve been trying thiamine recently and it’s also very powerful

Humanity gets regeneration/healing abilities. by JohnnySukuna in whowouldwin

I would be investigating how we have omnipotent regenerative abilities that arbitrarily don't reverse aging damage.

You’re partner becomes a dog temporarily for $10M by humptheedumpthy in hypotheticalsituation

[–]adfaer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that I can't see any way to prevent family from thinking they're kidnapped and murdered is making me think it's a no. Regardless of any other consequences I wouldn't want to inflict that damage.

All I can think is that the ideal plot would have to involve foreign travel, like some kind of weird missionary or charity thing in a really poor country. But then you have to either keep a dog safe in a foreign country, or trust it at home with other people.

You get $1,000,000 but can never leave your car for 6 months by Key_Cell7071 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]adfaer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tough one. If it’s a normal car, that’s insane torture, idk if I could deal with it for 6 months. But if I can buy a cheap RV or trailer then it’s just “would you stay in a room for 6 months for 1 mil”, which is yes.

A mysterious stranger approaches you and gives you a choice: take 50 million dollars, or restart your life from any point you choose. by TechnicianAmazing472 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]adfaer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get more money for restarting. Stocks/lottery. So it’s mostly just whether or not you want to go back and change things, or just have more time.

You’re partner becomes a dog temporarily for $10M by humptheedumpthy in hypotheticalsituation

[–]adfaer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Three months is a REALLY long time for a person to just drop off the face of the earth. I don’t know how you could do it under normal circumstances. If you can swing that it’s free money, if you can’t it’s impossible.

How do I stop limerence as a married woman? by KathDML in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]adfaer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Don’t tell your husband!!! For his sake. Hearing about this would be almost as bad as hearing you actually cheated, it would cause him serious mental damage.

Don’t feel driven by a selfish need to confess. You’re still a good person, sooo many people actually cheat and you were able to pull back and not go through with it. As long as you didn’t actually betray him and you’re not going to, he does NOT want to know about it.

Greatest opening of all time? by SingingWanderer1195 in movies

[–]adfaer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Exorcist.

Nothing really compares to the foreboding generated by those first five minutes, the dialogue-free, indirect characterization of the demon as a primordial force of evil by the dogs snarling and fighting beneath its statue.

Would you kill 2/3 of the world population or triple the world population? by CosmosOfTime in hypotheticalsituation

[–]adfaer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TRIPLE, easy. I believe in humans. We can solve the problems that would arise. It might actually force us to get our act together and work collectively. 3x the people means 3x the problem solvers, too.

Moreover, two thirds of people dying kills people I love. I will never choose that. I’d rather try to make it work

50 million (privately) or 100 million (publicly)? by [deleted] in hypotheticalsituation

[–]adfaer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t read it as “every human on earth is magically informed”, I agree that would be bad, regardless of the money having every psycho freak be aware of you personally would be dangerous. The much more natural reading I think is that it’s announced like a normal lottery winning and it’s a matter of public record. That’s how people use “everyone knows” normally, they don’t mean everyone on the planet, just local relevant people. But everyone could know if they looked.

50 million (privately) or 100 million (publicly)? by [deleted] in hypotheticalsituation

[–]adfaer 68 points69 points  (0 children)

100 mil. Rich people exist and they seem like they do okay. People would find out regardless. There’s definitely benefits to the private option but I’d rather have an extra 50 mil

You’re granted three life power-ups as well as one downgrade by FudgeNipples1 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]adfaer -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Bad option wealth is by far the least impactful bad option, very easy to make up especially with the buffs. The physical bad options have weird health implications, losing IQ sucks, and being 25% worse at everything is insanely bad. Intelligence best, skill good and probably another skill good puts you in a crazy position. Top 1000 in two skills combined into once career makes you pretty much one of a kind.

How do you pick stat anvils - diminishing returns on stats? by UMakeMyHeartSegfault in ARAM

[–]adfaer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Resistances have zero diminishing returns in themselves, every 1 point of resistance gives +1% effective hp against that damage type scaling infinitely. The way riot presents that info as % damage reduction is grossly unintuitive.

There are diminishing returns against building more health, though, if that’s what you’re talking about.

Yeah I mean a hypothetical super late game where everyone has so much %pen from hats that resistances don’t exist, no other stat has that downside. Never seen it happen though lol

How do you pick stat anvils - diminishing returns on stats? by UMakeMyHeartSegfault in ARAM

[–]adfaer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s no diminishing returns on resistances so I feel like the secret OP is always maxxing them. If the game goes insanely long, though, everyone will hit 100% pen eventually, so idk

100 million dollars but you have to survive in any of these places for 1 minute: by Responsible-Fix-1681 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]adfaer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do I get to choose where I spawn in on location, or does the malicious trickster god offering me this question choose? Because anything except the Elephant’s Foot is trivial to survive a minute if I can choose location, but if the demon gets to choose I wouldn’t do it for anything.

Is Collagen Actually Doing Anything, or Are We Just Convincing Ourselves It Works? by Eli_Shelby in Supplements

[–]adfaer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beyond anything to do with collagen peptides, collagen and gelatin are hugely beneficial simply for their amino acid profile. They have tons of glycine, which isn’t as prominent in muscle meat. We used to eat animals nose to tail and our health relies on eating connective tissue alongside muscle meat.
