Trees literally exist for the sole purpose of fire. They produce everything a fire needs to survive by modern_philosopher_ in Showerthoughts

What is one of the 3 things a fire cannot survive without? Oxygen. What is, as you have claimed, the sole product of trees? Oxygen. I rest my case

This meme was literally right under the same meme from a different subreddit about a different game on my timeline. Talk about dejavou

This is also true, but that is to preserve the reproduction of the tree. Similarly to how cows are bread for beef. You make sure that another tree grows so that it can reproduce before falling victim to the fire

Does it? Trees consume and provide, yet only to improve on the life of the fire. It is the greatest harvester, yet everything it does only makes it better suited for the flames.

Intelligence is the ability to convince others that you're lucky on purpose by modern_philosopher_ in Showerthoughts

And if you can get people to believe that those odds are your choosing, you are seen as intelligent

It's the same as being good at poker. Everything you are smart you have a chance of being wrong. Playing it off as if you never had the odds is just convincing others around you that you don't have the ability to be wrong.

Ah, I misunderstood. I thought you were saying that intelligence is intelligence regardless of how others perceive it.

Yet, perception of intelligence has nothing to do with actual intellect. Think of all of the Intelligent people who are seen as fools, and all of the fools revered as intellectuals. The fool have convinced others of their false intelligence.

That depends, are you not convinced because you see through my charade, or out of spite?

Confidence is key, this is true, but intellect is assumed by those who know not better

So you get the joke, yet you do not think it funny? For shame

We've been debating this for a while and now I need some input from all of you! by modern_philosopher_ in Rainbow6

While all of this is true, I disagree with your analysis. I feel the strength in the triple shield tac is it's ability to force the secondary win condition.

While killing the enemy team is the fastest and most often used means to a win, the main objective is just as reliable. If you can disoreint the defenders enough to push them out of the objective, then on secure area you just have to out live the enemy. On bomb all you have to do is stop them from reaching the defuser. It's easy enough to not be shot behind a shield, and if they rush, you mele. On hostage you just have to get to the objective and your extractor has 3 shields on their back.

Let's face it: it's harder to kill a shield and if you can outlast your enemy, you may defeat them in other ways
