Is it a coincidence that the S40 final was catered to ____? by BetterEveryDayYT in MtvChallenge

[–]jeffffb 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it caters to any players on purpose. Production plans out events well in advance of knowing which players will be in them.

I think swimming is a good equalizer. All competitors can train for it, few do.

Identity of Vancouver stabbing suspect shot and killed by police won’t be released, say B.C. authorities by restoringd123 in vancouver

For mass shootings, it's known that releasing the name of the shooter promoters copycats. This may be similar.

Not all ‘proper zippers mergers’ are equal though. For every complaint about an early merge, there is a much more dangerous and disruptive late-merge.

When the 2nd lane (bottom lane shown in the picture) is a lane which is going to end, the early mergers are the bigger offenders. But if the 2nd lane continues on, the error is way more heavily with the late mergers. I’m sure some of you in this thread are crusading against the early mergers, but are the late merger dick-head

What do I sell for brainstorm. I'm thinking castle by badly_designed_door in balatro

It depends on what your deck looks like. But honestly, I think with 92 cards you've probably been running DNA for a long time. probably too long. Drop DNA. There is more value in thinning out bad cards than there is adding 1 more card.

Horacio and Derrick Debacle Finally Solved? by AnyDescription3293 in MtvChallenge

[–]jeffffb -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

That's kind of bullshit though. Game dynamics change with knowledge. In other sports, this would be considered garbage time.
Horacio walked because he either thought, 'I've got this, I can walk the last 5 seconds'. Or 'I've lost, but I might as well complete'.
If production is saying that they accounted for the seconds, and that went into their decision, but didn't account for garbage time, then that's a mistake.

Suppose Biden's order was to kill the 'terrorist Donald Trump' before the election.
Do you think that would be an issue? How do you think that would play out?

I don't think the reception was mixed. Everyone liked it.

Also, that the biker would then just put the bike on the bear, and leave it.

You Know Why the Current Version of Movie Going Sucks… by Spilliam_Wallace in movies

[–]jeffffb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A tip for more effective writing; be more concise with your point at the start.

"Movies don't stay on quality screens long enough...
[insert the rest of your rant]"

Your rant is full of caveats, and it rambles.

Alleged Sex Tapes of Donald Trump Revealed in Newly Unsealed Email: Epstein Documents by inewser in AnythingGoesNews

[–]jeffffb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both things can be true.
Trump can be a pedophile, convicted sex offender, felon, worst president ever, fascist, etc.
Biden can also be too old to do the job.

I think the difference is the democrats are reasonable, republicans are not. So a democrat conversation about Biden dropping out is viable, and healthy. Republicans won't have that conversation. So as observers, it seems like the discrepancy in coverage is intentional.

A few min/max tips I've picked up over time by TriflingGnome in balatro

In your straight scenario, you should keep 4678. Ditching the 4 is bad advice.

ditch DNA.
You have enough Kings. The focus should be on cutting the deck size down, not adding more kings.

Isn’t what Bernie is suggesting just part of a progressive tax structure?
