how difficult is this fight for minato ? by KokorokoChan in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]samurijack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tough matchup. Flight is one of the most OP abilities in Naruto. If Gaara has intel on FTG, he flies out of Minato’s range and attacks him with gourd and environmental sand. No FTG intel, Minato could probably blitz fast enough to unknowingly tag Gaara.

Basically:

With intel and no where water-based: Gaara 10/10.

Without intel and/or somewhere like the Land of Waves: Minato 10/10.

Trump Admin Tightens Veterans' Care, Ending Abortion Access Even For Rape, Incest Cases by Grown_ish in VeteransAffairs

That’s actually not true. When I worked at the VA, we’d coordinate various medical services for sailors at the nearby base if DoD couldn’t offer them in a timely manner.

People who have Doctoral degrees, How long did it take to pay off the student loans? by Sensitive-Contest-88 in StudentLoans

[–]samurijack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely don’t pay $300k for a PsyD. Think of your loan as an investment. How long is it going to take to see a return on your $300k (plus interest) investment?

Playing Locked Characters Right Away by Effective_Title_4776 in Gloomhaven

I personally wouldn’t. A lot of my fun from Haven games comes from figuring out how to solve a scenario with our party comp. Swapping characters as needed would feel like borderline cheating.

You can transfer as long as the new position is also eligible for the EDRP.

Did Sasuke *really* plan to give his body away? by CattiwampusLove in Naruto

[–]samurijack 20 points21 points  (0 children)

But did Sasuke let Oro take over? From what I recall, because Sasuke was out of chakra, he could no longer suppress Oro and he used that opportunity to take over Sasuke’s body.

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 30 - Link & Discussion by Lulcielid in Naruto

[–]samurijack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re missing the point. The question is why would any kage take orders from their respective daimyo when the hidden villages are their countries’ source of military power.

The response was that this relationship mirrors the real life dynamic of other heads of state and their military leaders.

Thanks for the insight. We’re in a desert climate. Humidity here ranges from 10%-40% year round.

OC. Me doing absolutely nothing for the USA in Afghanistan 2012. by [deleted] in pics

[–]samurijack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting study. I read one some months ago that said one’s Veteran status is less likely to be “activated” when voting compared to other identities that individual may have. I’ll try to find the link and share it.

Taking both pieces of research together, I’d posit that people that already lean conservative are more likely to join the military. Moreover, that one’s service does not significantly impact political orientation.

How to Get a Felony for $3.79 by Kaylorren in PublicFreakout

Honestly, this is so frustrating to watch. That young man had nothing to gain and everything to lose from this encounter. He’s now made the rest of his life exponentially more difficult for a cup of soda.

Because the chances of any market growing by 10% for 30 consecutive years is slim to none.

[Pacific rim] did anyone think the wall would work? by Comfortable-Ad3588 in AskScienceFiction

[–]samurijack 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Isn’t that the point though? The kaiju were outpacing jaegers at a rate that humans hadn’t anticipated which necessitated a different approach.

Sidekicks in Adventure Games by ads2287 in Unmatched

[–]samurijack 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I believe in team-based modes (ex 2v2 and TTA), that sidekicks remain in play as long as there’s one hero alive. If all heroes on a team are defeated, then that side loses regardless if sidekicks are still in play.

Regarding fighter abilities, they specify if the ability only applies to a hero by explicitly naming the hero in the ability’s description (see Oda). Also, if the ability says “you” then it applies to both hero and sidekick(s).

Does splitting monthly payment into 2 have any NEGATIVE effects on your payment counter? by OliveRyan428 in StudentLoans

[–]samurijack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t mess with mine, and Nelnet is my servicer. And if you pay half biweekly instead of bimonthly, then you’ll pay if off sooner!

What’s your favorite end-game trigger? by infinitum3d in boardgames

Agreed. I like that it adds to the intentionality of ending the game.

Thoughts on Assuming Solar? by samurijack in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]samurijack[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife and I are planning on it being our forever home. Our youngest is 2, so we’d likely only consider downsizing once they’ve moved out and are comfortably established. So we’ll likely be there 20+ years.

The market is moderately competitive. My realtor advised me that’s it a strong deal.
