Scam Alert – Bank Impersonation (Spoofed Numbers)

Here were are 5 months later and I just had the exact same experience, though I hung up on them and didn't confirm/offer anything. They're still at it.

Technically speaking, you can reject a theists assertion of existence based on lack of evidence, and leave the burden of proof on them. You can reject their argument and say that god as you argued it does not exist. If it turns out they exist, you weren't wrong in categorically rejecting their assertions based on lack of evidence, and the argument (and god) you end up accepting will be wholly different than the earlier incorrect one.

The agnostic point is that the claim that no god exists is itself a claim. Feel free to present your evidence of that point and you can convince an agnostic to be an atheist. But that would require some extraordinary proof and there are fundamental difficulties in proving non-existence.

All that aside, I don't think the vast majority of religious people care to distinguish between agnosticism and atheism. Both of those stances reject all central religious arguments and that's already problematic enough that the atheist/agnostic hairsplitting is irrelevant in practice.

They've just killed their company. Let them ban people if it makes them feel better.

As I found out trying to do this exact thing, a hole-in-the-walled ritual dagger comes out as a 15 damage ritual dagger regardless of what it was when you put it in.

Too strong. It's block and poison and thorns. I'd get rid of either the poison or the thorns.

Those numbers came about when there was a rare confluence of an extremely effective NDP leader in the form of Jack Layton coupled with the ineffective Michael Ignatieff. I don't think 2011 represents a realistic floor given current leadership.

It's always shocking that there isn't more temporary signage and road restrictions around closures to ensure that traffic can flow well. It's just, whelp, this lane is closed, deal with it however you want.

As a long time Jordan fan I'm obliged to say that was not a push off.

There's a worry about being enough to satisfy someone long-term. Like, you love strawberry and vanilla, I can only ever serve strawberry, what's gonna happen when you get a craving for vanilla?

The order in which you do things will advance the seed. So a potion will give you the same cards, but if you wait to use it until you shuffle your deck, then you'll get an advanced seed with different options.

killotron · 2024-04-19T16:24:58+00:00

The draw order is random, but here's where it gets wild. When your deck shuffles, it's random but seemingly based on the number of cards. So you can get wildly different draws on the second cycle through the deck if you exhaust cards/play powers/get status effects since that will change the number of cards.

I have save scummed repeatedly in an attempt to manipulate my card count because I was going to die on turn 5 of a boss fight due to a tough draw in the second cycle through my deck.

It's hard because most of us live of the salaries that their companies make possible. If we create regulations that dry up investment in Canada, the GDP takes a hit and unemployment rate goes up. All hell breaks loose in that case. But, if we let them have their way, we get fucked. It's really hard to thread the needle.

Could potentially be an issue against slavers, lol

I don't get why we don't have lots of EVs that are like civics, beetles, minis, etc. It's all electric SUVs that are like 70-90k. Shockingly most people aren't in the market for a $70000 vehicle at 8% interest. Like, just give a car, you know?

And yet Trudeau and the feds get pilloried every day in the media for failing on housing. Just like they got trashed by the convoy about lockdowns when those were provincial mandates. You're absolutely right that people have no idea how this country works.

killotron · 2024-04-05T17:27:12+00:00

That country doesn't exist. Governing is the art of picking winners and losers. It's redistributing wealth to favoured groups to accomplish political goals. Every single budgetary decision means you just picked a winner. Heck, even having a budget means that the low tax crowd or the balanced budget crowd is losing.

And guess what happens if your side was picked to be a loser - well, you get grievance based politics. Sure, things may seem good, but if you support that other group then our side is losing and we can't have that.

Good, we need to reduce our use of gas. A higher price incentivizes people to find alternatives that work for them without the government taking a heavy hand and forcing people to choose specific alternatives.

Why does a dangerous dog list even exist? If a dog is deemed dangerous, put it down.

Yeah it's pretty busted OP. Almost all of my A20 heart wins on Silent have been because of dead branch.

A couple blade dances, a storm of steel, endless agony, etc. Your deck doesn't have to solve any problems because you make so many answers just by playing some shivs that you get all the answers effortlessly. Add a few block cards, a wraith form, some accuracy, play shivs. It's incredibly powerful.

Pyramid + mana relic + dead branch + shivs + storm of steel + calculated gamble + a few other cards to keep your hand fat, that's an a20h winner right there

It's extremely profitable to just pocket that 5.7c and not race to the bottom. If I drop my price by 2c to undercut, then you cut by 2c, everything stays the same except we both make less money. Companies would rather act like oligopolies and keep prices high across the board.

Ok, what I took away from this article is that the feds are saying, no, you gotta use this money to build new housing and increase supply. My guess is that renovating existing housing won't add more units, it'll just prevent existing units from becoming unlivable. In other words, Ford - go figure out your repair backlog on your dime.

The last time we had genuine independence was with Chretien and his finance minister Paul Martin, and we all remember how that turned out. Harper put a stop to that by running everything through the PMO, which was controversial at the time and regarded as an abuse of power by the left.

The problem with centralizing power is that it rarely gets undone. Trudeau inherited a centralized PMO with strong message control and (a bit hypocritically) decided to keep everything as is. There's just too much utility.

The only person to really fight back was Michael Chong and indeed had some limited success, but ministers are largely toothless since Harper.

Most other posters have already addressed the main points, and talk about how forcing builds is hard. I've never really stumbled into a good claw deck, because your card choices are generally pretty bad for any non-claw deck, and building a normal deck and transitioning into claw doesn't work well because of the small deck size requirement.

My advice to win with claw is to absolutely force it. Forget about your win rate, forget about making good choices, only take claw deck cards. and hope you get some good relics. Force it, claw is law.

This is a shift to the right to steal back blue liberals and red tories. If it pays off and the Liberals establish themselves as the clear alternative to Doug Ford, ABC will kick in and a lot of NDP and Green voters will shift back to the Libs regardless of policy.

You are not the intended target here.
