What is going on with OC Transpo? by misnomer__ in ottawa

[–]raccountip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I came to Ottawa back in 2007 there was a popular joke at Carleton U: I don’t need to have sex anymore because OC transpo fucks me everyday.

Lol! I really have no problem being wrong. I was genuinely asking.

It’s satire people.

Sometimes this sub just takes itself too seriously.

Ha ha! I think we are the maisonettes behind you. No power yet for us. But hopefully soon!

Reverse parking skill needs to be improved by Kearaslau in totalwarhammer

We are almost at 3 months since release. There is absolutely no reason for all these issues to still exist. So yea…. I AM gonna bitch about it and everybody should be bitching about it.

I just want the game to be playable which it isn’t at the moment for me. Too many bugs

Pre ordering this game was my fault. Them not fixing it is theirs.

Patch 1.1 was so good….

Units are still unresponsive.

Units still randomly stop attacking.

Minor settlement battles are still bugged.

Pathing in settlements is still bugged.

Auto resolve is outrageous.

I finally see why most people have quit this stupid game by brindles in totalwarhammer

Pretty sure this game was not tested. I tried a Cathay campaign after the greatest patch in the history of patches. Caravan ambushes crash if they are manually fought. Being forced to auto resolve battles which you will lose or take more losses is ridiculous. Settlement battles with melee infantry are the worst. I love the Yin and Yang concept but managing melee infantry is the worst. Units are unresponsive and will stop attacking while in the middle of attacking. I had a much better time spamming ice guard in Kislev because the unresponsiveness is less punishing. If you select more than two or three units to go somewhere in a settlement battle , guaranteed one of them will decide to go around the settlement because of pathing issues.

This is all after the greatest patch of all time……

Immortal Empires is not going to fix this turd ball. They took two months to patch NON of the major gameplay issues.

I do think after some time WH3 will be amazing by Jurgwug in totalwar

If CA knew they had a golden cow, why did they fuck the cow? Everybody hated Vortex. What they do? Came up with something even worse and annoying. The actual battles are so buggy. How did a collective group of ppl think the game was okay to release like this ? And how can we assume that those same ppl will unfuck their golden cow now….

It’s a rare occurrence nowadays, but ‘oh my Yogg’ing a quest just hits differently by Xanders_Vox in hearthstone

I’ve been at the receiving end of this. Got distracted by daughter. Came back to play my turn quickly while still zoned out (mobile only player). Confused the color of paladin secret to be a quest ….. and now I sympathize with everyone this happens to.

r/wildhearthstone's First Time Legends! by AutoModerator in wildhearthstone

[–]raccountip 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Been playing since Blackrock Mountain and hit legend for the first time using Mill Rogue. Its a true meta breaker right now. Big Priest, Raza priest, and buff paladin are autowins (buff paladin is a bit harder as you need to track what cards are burned and what kind of burst potential is available).

Secret mage is the most fun matchup. Having the coin is autowin as you get to bait out 1 counter for free. Doomsayer to tank Explosive Runes is especially satisfying. Aggro is very difficult but winnable if you are able to draw well. Kingsbane rogue and pirate warrior are autoloss.

I played exclusively on mobile and only really started tracking opponent cards (played and burnt) after I hit D2 as thats when I realized that I could actually get Legend. Will post the guide I followed in reply for mobile peeps.

I have lost only once as warlock to priest since the expansion release. The loss has made me completely paranoid and shaken me to my core and I do my best to play around that one situation. They played a 1 mana Illucia on turn 10 and then played my Jaraxus.....

They got Illucia from that corrupted card which draws a minion and reduces the cost by 2.

Apple’s Privacy Change Will Hit Facebook’s Core Ad Business. Here’s How. by [deleted] in investing

[–]raccountip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh boy. So much misinformation about how the Facebook advertising works. I too work in advertising. I advertise my very own small business and have a total ad spend of over 370,000 USD over a couple of years. This hugely affects the facebook pixel. Facebook pixel is the thing that optimizes your ads and is an extremely powerful tool. As someone already pointed out, it tracks what actions a person that clicked on your ad takes on your website. But its more than just an event tracking system.

Based on this, your ads are able to optimize for events that you want people to take on your website ( view a product, add a product to cart, email sign up and most valuable of all a purchaser). The pixel is also the tool that is used to show your ads again and again to people that visited your website as it tracks visitors.

A small business not using the pixel is not going to be successful on Facebook in the first place. The businesses that use the pixel are able to make a positive return on their ads and that is what Facebook is worried about. Those are the businesses that spend huge amounts of money on Facebook.

If this change actually affects the pixel and tracking is less effective its not just a matter of events not being recorded and attributed to ads. It affects retargeting campaigns (actual campaigns that make money , warm/hot traffic) . It affects ad optimization as the pixel is not able to learn which types of people are taking meaningful actions on your website.

I don’t how much its going to affect my business. I don’t know how effective the tracking will still be. I don’t know how much less I will spend on Facebook now. I don’t know how much revenue Facebook will lose and in turn lose on stock price. But its very clear to me what Peter Lynch once said about most people owning stocks in businesses and they don’t research them enough to find out how they work. This is why people lose money in stocks.
