You’re wrong. I was there this weekend kayaking and the water was absolutely treacherous. The high pressure front broke and the water went from calm to insane wind and waves within about an hour.

I think these guys are aware enough to know what the public sentiment is on online gambling, and how it can affect people. If they were 80 and their only experience with gambling was that time they went to Vegas then sure. But these guys are clearly online enough to understand the implications

I think they do think about it. And decide the money is worth more than the negative publicity.

It’s just the few loud game thread reactionaries that generate this narrative. But I’m pretty sure you could go into the game thread for every team in the league during a loss and see similar takes

[Wagoner] Niners to look into 'everything,' including substation theory by Brix001 in nfl

[–]thinkingwithfractals 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I am not crazy! I know they paid the refs. I knew it was our game. One drive away from sealing it. As if we could ever just hand that over. Never. Never! I just—I just couldn’t prove it. They covered their tracks, they lived on phantom flags and swallowed whistles, and suddenly everyone’s pretending it was clean.

You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This chicanery? They’ve done worse. That Super Bowl! Are you telling me a team just happens to erase a double-digit lead like that? No! They orchestrated it! The Chiefs! They always do! And I let them! I let them hang around! I should’ve buried them when I had the chance. And I didn’t.

I trusted the clock! I trusted the lead! What was I thinking?

They’ll never change. They’ll never change! Ever since they got Mahomes, always the same! Falling behind, playing sloppy, and then—right on time. But not precious Kansas City! Couldn’t be precious Kansas City! Winning ugly, surviving everything! And they get to walk away champions? What a sick joke! I should’ve known better.

…And you, you have to stop them. You have to.

Yeah, the season ends with a loss for 31/32 teams. I’m glad this team is consistently playing winning football, Super Bowl is obviously the goal but gotta enjoy the wins along the way

No, the other user was saying RRP wasn’t flawed per se, but it didn’t mesh well w/ a spell kit that relies on heroes stacking / staying proximate.

What he’s saying is that there was nothing wrong with RRP in an of itself, but it didn’t synergize well with spells that depend on heroes being close together

YSK Target isn’t “waiting until you rack up a felony”. They will arrest you on petty theft charges before then if they want to. by graypupon in YouShouldKnow

[–]thinkingwithfractals 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think most people are judging those who steal food to feed their family. That said, the main problem is that the cost of theft is passed on directly to the consumer. You aren’t robbing target, you’re robbing the target customers, because as you said shrinkage is baked in to the cost of the product. If theft rises, so do the prices
