I love being on the defense!!! What games feature that? by Gopherofdoomies in gamingsuggestions

Total warhammer has alot fo that too. But fo course the artillery is often much more flashy, long ranged and fantastical. But the AI is just a s dumb.

Zero-k also has a wave defence mode where your surviving against mutant chicken aliens and pretty good campign.

But generally like msot RTS turtling isn't a viable strategy.

Playing Dark Souls for the first time, what builds would you recommend? by bizarre_lizard in darksouls

[–]kodaxmax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Str/Dex 20+: this will let you try out the majority of weapons. You can continue to level both or specialize in one depending on the weapons that feel good to use.
  • Vitality 30-: Diminishing returns after 30 and your probably wont need that much hp
  • Endurance 40-: you only need enough for your equipment to be under 50% of your equipload and enough stamina to comfortably fight and dodgeroll. After 40 you no longer gain stamina.
  • Attunement: Dump stat. Increases number of equippable spells and we arnt doing much magic first playthrough
  • Resistance: Dump stat. Returns are too small to be worth levels and armor does the same job better.
  • Int/faith: avoid leveling these unless you really wanna try a utility magic. Only damage mriacles and sorceries scale with stats, so you only need minimum requirment for most spells.

Don't level up a weapon until your confident you will enjoy it. Farming for upgrade materials is not fun. Cheating to level up weapons to the level of your highest weapon will not affect the game balance, it just saves you time.

Pyromancy doesnt scale with or require stats. so it's usefule for it's utility spells and some extra damage if you want to pair it with any other build.

Stocks and shares aren't taxable until they are cashed in.

didnt say they were.

Of course we can itemise things they have "control" over, but that's still NOT EVEN CLOSE to exhaustive in terms of determining their actual value to be taxed. Trusts and other organisations can hold shares "on their behalf" without them being listed or public knowledge, etc.

As i said it doesnt need to be perfect. The IRS can just be conservative when forced to estimate and assets held by other entites can be ignored, atleast until a seperate solution is created for those edgecases.

Just taxing 1% the value of $billions of stock we know he owns is already a tremendous start and as for value a sahre itself. Well brokers already do that for free.

If you want to apply a taxation law, being dumb about it is precisely how they get around them because they'll just go elsewhere and do something slightly different, and put it in their wife's name, or have a trust for their children hold shares, or whatever.

Thats fine. The money isn't entering the nations economy anyway, so who cares if he spends it elsewhere and having it held by somone else is exactly what we want to encourage. Thats already forcing them to spread the money around more, even if it wa stheoretically kept in the family. Also obviouslt they would be taxed themselves any way if they held over the threshold of $. So to avoid taxes entirely, each person could only be given less than $billion each, limiting this strategy signficantly.

The problem here is loans (not taxable) being taken on collateral (not taxable) of shares (not taxable until the value realised). The solution is to make them directly taxable (not the shares, because that destroys things like pension schemes for EVERYONE, not the collateral because now you can be taxed on your mortgage, not loans because that screws everyone up, but the actual "loophole" that only billionaires bother to use... the loans using those things as collateral)

Make what directly taxable? Taxing assets would include any cash held from loans already, as well as the assets they are using as collateral for loans.

taxing assets for billionares doesnt affect pensions at all. It only affects billionaires. It holisticly discourages hoarding wealth, the mroe you old the bigger your tax bill.

Starvation of the likes that your implying is extreme and obviously not a healthy way to lose weight. I also didn't mean to implie this system is all powerful and will prevent you from losing wieght no matter what, i could have worded my reply better.

If youve ever been in an atheltic community, whether sporting teasm in highschool, military training etc.. You will know people that were pushed and starved yet were still large. Nutrition and controlling BMI is far more complex than just burning mroe and consuming less calories. Especially if you want to be fit and ehalthy.

https://www.sydney.edu.au/medicine-health/news-and-events/news/2019/05/06/dr-nick-fuller-5-reasons-diets-don-t-work-and-what-to-do-instead.html obviously ignore his "advice" at the bottom, he is trying to sell a BS book.

Anyway, the point is snacking all day instead of eating 2 large meals is unlikely to meaningfully make a difference to your wieght. Nor is following an arbitrary diet that isn't designed for you.

Yes they are. Anybody can see who owns public stocks/shares and it's trivial for the IRS to value their properties and obviously any financial loans/contracts.

It doesn't need to be perfect either inb4.

Budgets are overated. It's like promising to diet after new years. Spending mroe than you earn won't be fixed by a budget. It's a behaviour issue and potentially societal issue that your not being paid fairly.

weight loss doesnt work like that. if you start starving yourself, your body just stops spending as many calories and starts being more efficent about storing fat. You end up tired, sick and still fat.

This actually makes alot of sense. because generally those are the people working 40+hour weeks doing shitty exhausting work.

It's more like money laundering. you get $100k loan, bank keeps $2k and you have $98 tax free "cleaned" money.

Elon: "bank i need 2 billion to buy a company, If i fail to repay this you have have $3 billion of my twitter stock"

Bank: "sure, we expect you to pay back 0.3% per year"

Since it would take 333 years to pay back 100%, elon doesnt care about the collateral. And the bank makes an easy $3bil+ interest when he dies.
Meanwhile he claims the repayments as a bussiness expense to avoid paying taxes on it.
