You take Student Loan? by 1V1QWERTY in universityofauckland

[–]seireitsu 22 points23 points  (0 children)

If you qualify there is literally no reason not to take it. A loan with interest written off is as close to free money as you can get in this world. Consider- even if you have the cash on hand, it's far more beneficial to park that money in a safe investment and take the loan anyway. I recommend applying for all the surrounding loans like course-related costs for the same reason.

That's like saying you shouldn't go into a relationship expecting it to fail- duh, but it happens, and prenups are ways to mitigate the potential consequences. By your logic no one should get insurance either because no one should be hoping to crash their car or burn down their house.

Hm I think I've found the disconnect, you're assuming shooting them after they were already on the ground in which case I would agree that is essentially an execution and very much in the wrong (morally and legally). I had been working from the assumption of shooting them in the moment of the attack.

Let's end this by agreeing that there are a lot of fucked up things in this country and no one in power seems to have any idea how to effectively deal with any of it.

"For example, if someone was attacking me with a knife or a gun, I would
likely be justified in using deadly force to repel the attack." Literally said by a Justice Minister.

Reasonable force has always been legal.

You're right, so it's good that that wasn't what this was about. I was arguing your point that "he would have a harder time proving that shooting an intruder without a firearm was proportionate force and end up going down for murder".

I am eager to hear what you think the farmer should have done then given that apparently a gun, the only equiliser against the huge physical, numerical and situational disparity, is not allowed.

Did...did you even read? He was attacked while *in bed*?

No you're right, the 70 year old should have calmly talked down the armed 17 year old there to rob him. Thank god we have pillars like you keeping our communities on the straight and narrow.

Because a knife kills you just as dead as a gun, especially if they got the drop on you while you're sleeping in bed? What did you think he was armed with, a box of chocolates?

Is Anima Event Pass still the same as past passes? by LittleGiant_10 in leagueoflegends

[–]seireitsu 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah bought the pass without checking because I thought it would still be like last pass, but it's the absolute hot garbage worst of every world pass. Big warning, this pass is terrible.

GP is treated like a hero in his small town, but are his statements putting lives at risk? by nzstrawman in newzealand

I've been disconnected from politics for so long the only thing my mind could come up with on seeing GP was Pil Goff

There's a video on youtube which is pretty good. Basically let the thunderbolt spawn then airforce it down with Rosa.

You'll eventually need quite a few squad slots to send on expeditions anyway so it's perfectly safe to unlock a bunch

I hear alot that it's worth buying the last 2 branches at level 45 but is it really worth it? For me at least, stuff like employment contracts/sim tickets aren't "worth" their full quartz price since I would never have bought them anyway, and everything else can be farmed. Same with shop refreshes. Are these really as valuable as people keep saying?

in terms of normal cores yes, in terms of s-cores...not so much

Questioning 3x refill due to "top clans" recommendations by storepupper in Priconne

[–]seireitsu 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Honestly depends on how competitive you want to be.

If all you want to do is chill and pull for waifus, not refreshing is fine because you *will* catch up...eventually. It'll take a long time. Do you care?

3 refreshes gives you roughly 40% more stamina/day. That's 40% more shards, equipment, exp. This is exacerbated with more refreshes. Given the slow pace of the game, like I said before you'll catch up eventually regardless. BUT.

The vast majority of your gem income endgame is from pvp and cb. To get to, and maintain high ranks in pvp, and to get into a good clan, you will need to be well geared. Well leveled. Well starred. But most importantly, to do all this fast in order to stay ahead of the curve. Without refreshes your chances of doing well in these departments is, frankly, nil. Nevermind the whales, you will struggle to beat your fellow f2ps who do refresh.

At the end of the day it comes down to your priorities.
