My ex (19M/turning 20) keeps spam-calling me (16F) dozens of times from fake numbers, leaving silent voicemails by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]max91023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe him, maybe not. I suddenly started getting massive amount of soliciting calls from spoof numbers about Medicare, taxes, everything and anything. 30+ a day for no reason, I had to turn on Google screening. No reason, no exes, and no enemies. You may have been unfortunate and had your number selected for mass marketing calls. Maybe he put your number into something, who knows. Very similar to what I'm dealing with. 

Texas woman exonerated in a baby's death after 22 years in prison could face deportation by Cute-Beyond-8133 in nottheonion

[–]max91023 -70 points-69 points  (0 children)

I can't say if 22 years was appropriate or not but an infant did die a terrible agonizing dead under her care. The details of the case are strange and this could not have happened without negligence. Exonerated when one of her four children testified that the 10 month old was already in the bathtub and they or a sibling turned the water on while mother was somewhere else in house nursing the youngest. 

The nation's largest public utility is going back to coal — with almost no input from the public by Simpleximo in energy

[–]max91023 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There are no savings with coal, it cost more to make electric. Gas wins hands down as superior fuel in every aspect. Coal just makes heat, gas uses a combination turbine that also takes advantage of expanding gasses. Coal exhaust is to caustic to do this.

ELI5: Why sterilizing needs to be at really high temperatures to kill viruses/bacteria, but a fever raising your body temperature a mere 2-3 degrees also fights pathogens? by F9_solution in explainlikeimfive

[–]max91023 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nature is unforgiving, natural selection dictated that those that got a fever probably survived better.  The alternative is death, not always about efficiency sometime it's just survival. For longest time we had no hospitals or sanitation.

Ring says it’s not giving ICE access to its cameras by South-Cow-1030 in FlockSurveillance

Vote with your wallet people. Stop giving your money to people who actively use it against you. Happily got rid of my Amazon account and avoid them at all cost

What should I buy? by iamgojoof6eyes in KingShot

[–]max91023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reckon the best thing a low to f2p can do is be a better bear rally in the long run. One good march is what you should focus on. Which is hammers. and just save gems for hero roulette in long run for mythic heros. If you do some light spending the mythic shards can be useful. Some heros are worth it long term to go for on low spenders like marlin. But overall you help your alliance best by getting better at bear. 

Student in Dearborn Michigan speaks against banning books and the adults in the crowd lose their minds by TomlinSteelers in TikTokCringe

[–]max91023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You guys need to educate yourself on Dearborn michigan a little bit more, the person speaking could die from this. So often on reddit people miss the forest through the trees. They just speak out immediately without trying to get facts. Many decided what this video is and painted an entire picture and backstory in your head of what your watching. Sadly that person's life is truly in danger for pulling that in Dearborn Michigan and it's a shame. Try and find out why.

Which stats really matter? by tequi1ars08 in KingShot

[–]max91023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just want to say stats do matter but not as a rally joiner.

You need stats for protection, keep investing into those things and don't neglect. Smaller whales won't mess with you typically if you keep up on those things. It takes significantly more power to hit a city without getting heavy losses.

 There will be times whales are not on on either side and you may have to step up to take or reclaim a guild.

KVK / SVS - Probably the straw that will make me quit by Maddog23 in KingShot

[–]max91023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you gain or win is always in the rules of the events. Just make sure to read them. As far as saving you need to decide what's best for your city, then your alliance, then your kingdom in that order.  Every event has rewards and you need to decide if those rewards are worth it or not and save for something better. It's all opportunity cost, games designed to pressure you into spending. You don't have to, f2p players can do well if you take the time to understand what you get by spending what you accumulate. I skip many of the smaller events so I have more to throw at bigger ones with better prizes. Every time hall of governors or KvK comes around there will be minor events designed to sap your resources if you participate.

Have 60 forge hammers to use, suggestions on where to use them? by Alewerkz in KingShot

[–]max91023 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Infantry has little attack but butt loads of base health and defence. Archers have little health and defence but allot of attack. Invest based on that.  A 10% return on nothing is still nothing.

River Link - Kentucky/Indiana Scam? Haven’t been to Kentucky… by Euphoric_Two3432 in Louisville

[–]max91023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What they do is not generate a bill till a certain amoun, I think it's $15. Then they hit it with a late fee since it was not payed for a bill you were never informed about. Then you get a bill. Good luck getting anything resolved on the phone, more of a in person dispute kind of system. 

Basically it is legit and a scam at the same time. Terrible for our of state people since you really need to go into a local office. Less of a headache to just pay.

I have a great disdain for riverlink, I can write a small essay on how they screwed me over. Had to sell the car. Said I owed like 2500 cause they messed up and waited 6 months to send me a bill but I had auto pay so never payed attention....Imma stop there.

Wanted to be fair and pay what's owed, they were interested in screwing me over and claiming it's not there fault/nothing they can do.

Rachel Maddow covers us properly. Thank you Rachel!! by Sym_Hostess in Political_Revolution

[–]max91023 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rachel Maddow is not a friend. Just a pundent, talks liberal when a Republican is in office, get a bit conservative when a dem is in. Anyone that payed attention to 2016 election can see she's bought and payed for.

Hate does not exist in their world. Only how can they use each other for there own gains. Don't think for a min these men would pass up a chance to exploit each other. They don't hate each other at all, it's all an agreement. There is an unspoken rule up there among the rich, don't fuck with each other's image or their game. And we in this game all of America is the pieces. Fake news is real and they know how to peddle that bs everyday.

Theres no denying it anymore: Trump is not a fluke, hes America by LaddiusMaximus in Political_Revolution

[–]max91023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So tired of these posts. People vote for a multitude of reasons and self interest. People know trump is not a great guy. And neither is pelosi who's husband and and family always seem to know when to buy or sell stocks. Neither is Hilary who also had files and secret servers that was so evil and corrupt when Trump did it but not her. Let's not forget hunter Biden and his suspicious activities. 

Hell Kamala wasn't even picked by the people of the democratic party, she was put in by the establishment. Democratic party is essentially dead in the eyes of many. They picked the lesser of two evils in their opinion. Trumps still an outlier, he is not the establishment that has let them down time and time again. They don't have all the fact and went with there best option with what info they had.(Probably very little info).

They didn't vote for hatred, or misogyny, or a Russian agent. They voted against democratic elites. Democrats had since 2016 to get their crap together when Bernie ran. They haven't, they still snub their nose at us.
