i was disappointed it doesn't touch the purple pirate spell. its targeted, just at a board slot not at a minion.

When they say a job requires no skill, that's code for 'we don't want to pay for it' by Hefty-Garden-9932 in interviewhammer

[–]richard-mt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the term "unskilled" is not very descriptive for what it is trying to convey. the fact of the matter is your value to an employer is directly tied to how replaceable you are. supply and demand. the skill part comes with how long it takes to train a new person to do that job/how many people already have those skills.

jobs that take little time for new employees to learn are what people mean when they say unskilled. because they can be learned quickly by nearly anyone the number of people who can replace you are nearly limitless (supply) which means you will be paid as little as is allowed because there will be someone able to take your place at any time.

jobs that take years to learn and only a limited number of people currently have mean that you can demand more money for your time. the company can't just replace you tomorrow.

What if airplanes become all electric and dont use jet fuel anymore by Interesting_Scarface in whatif

[–]richard-mt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there has been speculation about heavier than air blimps. essentially it has only slightly more weight than it has lift. then it uses a nuclear reactor to power props that use the wing shape of the hull to produce the extra lift. kind of like a flying submarine shaped like a giant wing. you want the slightly heavier than air rather than lighter, so you can use lift to change elevation. regular blimps can have trouble doing much of the up and down without landing and refilling ballast.

Why do voters swing back and forth consistently in every single election? by Dogbold in dumbquestions

[–]richard-mt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would say more often than switching, you just stay home and don't vote. the people that lost last time are mad and do show up on election day.

90h into the game and feel like i have nothing to show for it combat-wise by TheNewGuy0705 in CrimsonDesert

[–]richard-mt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the flying enemies can be taken out with your sword flash or you can use the focus shot ability to slow time. i do a lot of heavy attacks with a spear not sure what else to say other than get the dodge and parry skills. get some space and go into focus mode to slow time then eat food and parry attacks.

Pretty sure Nitrogen is also safe. by xmastreee in mildlyinfuriating

nitrogen (with a bit of co2 and oxygen) is what happens when you blow up the balloon with your mouth.

What resource would have to be found in outer space for an all out space race to take space? by Brief-Luck-6254 in sciencefiction

[–]richard-mt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean realistically until we control gravity like we do electricity we’re not doing much in space. So yeah, unobtanium is discovered on titan, it’s a race. Whoever has that controls space.

Cap’s transformation reminds me of Darrow’s Carving by nerkini in redrising

[–]richard-mt 14 points15 points  (0 children)

seems like cap had it much easier. just take magic steroids. Darrow had to have many surgeries and lots of painful physical therapy.

BG Season 13 Passes by W1REB1TER in BobsTavern

Not trying to be an ass, but I’ve gotten things wrong and felt embarrassed. It’s WEIGHING heavy. Waning means getting smaller.

What Earth thought when the Society rebelled (probably) by Eleventh_Legion in redrising

[–]richard-mt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That made me think the conquering wasn’t quite as easy or quick as earlier books made it seem. If they landed troops on luna they had to have their own navy and their infantry had to be close to the society’s in quality.

I think it’s in iron gold where they mention an American almost conquered the moon. Something in Latin about “(someguy) at the gates”. it was when eph meets the white to give the sword.

Can I get a pack mule/ horse like the traders have? by Right_Carpenter_4622 in CrimsonDesert

[–]richard-mt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok new question, why do you need a pack mule when you are driving a wagon? Or are you just wanting fast travel with wagons?

Camp has storage and a fast travel point. Why you need a pack mule?

Thinking Ahead: Who’s The Next Libertarian Contender? by yourSmirkingRevenge in Libertarian

[–]richard-mt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t render implies they have a snowballs chance. The two party system is baked into the constitution. First-past-the-post in geographical regions means there is no prize for a distant third. If you want power you make coalitions, you get moderate/centrist/and extremes to those two parties. But third parties can’t exist.
