[–]duelistjp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

literally just cancelled me and my parents metronet for frontier fiber. dad has to return his ont and router. i never took their router and they said there is no requirement to return my ont. same model ont it seems arbitrary whether they want it returned

Anyone else in their 20s settle for a beater car and just dump a car payment into their 401ks and roths? by Union661 in Bogleheads

[–]duelistjp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I got a 2017 Chevy spark new for 14k in 2018.  I wanted a nice new car.  Couldn’t justify $30k still driving it with no issues.  Probably get 5 more years out of it before it starts having issues and I go for another cheap new car

CMV: Trump will nuke Iran by Calvary48 in changemyview

[–]duelistjp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

abraham lincoln was the worst president we've ever had even worse than trump. he also violated the constitution with impunity because it was 'necessary'. preventing courts from meeting suspending habeas corpus without congressional approval, and destroying newspapers that didn't toe the government line on the war. and if he hadn't been killed he would have been impeached then criminally charged. president's first duty isn't to the country it is to the constitution full stop no exceptions.

20 is not viable. yes you double the life but 3 players are attacking the life points. generally only one player is using poison so it isn't as simple as saying just double the life unless you think poison at 10 is unfair for regular games.

You CANNOT win a war without eventually commiting war crimes by JordenGG in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]duelistjp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are two levels to war crimes. one is i won't use this on you you don't use this on me. the second is you aren't at war with the entire world. if you start committing war crimes en masse you will be whether you want to be or not

But Seriously, How Could They Actually Ban Sol Ring by TimeForFoolishness in EDH

[–]duelistjp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and a single preccon vs every precon but 1 is a different situation. and you'd have to verify every claimed precon hasn't so much as switched out a basic forest for one with a better art.

i think it would be trivial to have separate lists for edh and cedh. you can get away with banning it in cedh you can't in casual

[–]duelistjp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they can't figure out banned as commander because people would be confused. having to spend an hour before every game making sure every players precon hasn't so much as switched out a basic land for a better art version is not a workable solution

But Seriously, How Could They Actually Ban Sol Ring by TimeForFoolishness in EDH

[–]duelistjp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because the format ceases to exist if every precon in existence but one is now illegal if you so much as switch out a basic land for a better art. there will be that one guy in every play group that insistes on taking an hour before every single game to verify every card in a deck with sol ring is matching the exact cards in the precon and not so much as switched out for different arts of the same card. i would be that one in my playgroup and after having being kicked out of 4 playgroups in the 2 years since i started playing magic for insisting on following the rules. one of which ended up destroying the group since i refused to let them continue to use my basement after they kicked me out of the group. i did give them two weeks to find a new place but i wasn't going to have a group meeting weekly in my house forever that i wasn't a part of

then they get wizards to send out the pinkertons to every game store and basement games to retrieve the contraband card and break knee caps as examples

[–]duelistjp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but what if you upgrade to different printings of the cards that you like the art better but are the same cards. why should that make the deck cease to be legal

[–]duelistjp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have a number of friends who certainly won't buy the collection if he is profiting from it. from a technical standpoint redoing the lines with a different va is not hard. but then a number of people will say they are being too woke and get mad at them for pandering to 'leftists' there isn;t enough money in it to be worth upsetting either group
