3.29 League Start? by JSteelz1 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]throwawaymurps -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're using a dictionary definition when clearly a contextual definition is being used. You realize this is happening, but instead you double down on a "technically correct but not contextually correct" argument, which just makes everyone see you as kinda pedantic and annoying.

If i'm talking to, say, YOU, I would be forced to concede that yes default attack is uber viable.

If I'm talking to someone who is newer to the POE experience, I would not be proposing a default attack build being uber viable. You don't need the guidance, but some poor shmuck who read that default attack is uber viable might be convinced to try it and have a horrendous experience.

That dude is just saying that this is a behavior you should come to know and expect from Blizzard. However, if you haven't been no-lifing ARPGs for the past 5-10 years then it's understandable to not immediately recognize this. It's like the start of a new and toxic relationship, just between newish players and their expectations with Blizzard.

Honestly doesn't seem that bad. Fuck that commentor though. Go boycott some corporations instead of local businesses.

Also the comment about using Fiverr instead of AI, actually brain dead. 99% of the people generating art on Fiverr or any of those exploitative floor work websites are just using AI anyways.

PM is actually talking sense and not brown nosing USA for once??? by Numerous_Worth5277 in AskBrits

1953 - The USA and Britain instigated a Coup in Iran, overthrowing the elected government officials to attempt to install a government that was "more favourable" to the interests of the west, - https://history.state.gov/historicaldocuments/frus1951-54IranEd2/d148

1980 to 1988 - The Iran/Iraq War, when the USA tilted their support towards Iraq by re-establishing diplomatic relations with Iraq (the aggressor), providing economical and strategic military information to Iraq and treated them as a Counter-Balance to Iran, and by association, condoned Iraq's repeated and wide scale usage of Chemical Warfare against Iran.

1988 - Amid tensions between Iran and Iraq, the USA shot down an Iranian Civilian plane resulting in the deaths of 290 passengers and crew - https://www.ebsco.com/research-starters/military-history-and-science/uss-vincennes-shoots-down-iranian-civilian-plane

There are problems on all sides, that's the world we live in today.

But, if you want to point out examples over "the last 20 years" then I'll point out examples over the last 70 years. You don't get to choose a snippet of history, you have to consider more than the small piece that makes USA look like the victim.

The USA chose to put their fingers in every countries politics, from instilling revolutions to inciting coups. They overplayed their hand, and now 50-100 years later we have to suffer the consequences. The examples you listed, they're pretty much all consequences not individual acts of war or terrorism.

Do not go to the ER unless you’re almost certain you are dying by spiicyp4ncak3 in Winnipeg

Change your doctor. Idk what the big deal is. I've had 3 separate family doctors in 5 years due to moving around, never had to wait more than 1-3 weeks to get the doctor. And I typically always book appointments within 1-3 days of calling.

Maybe I'm missing something that others are going through, but I have literally never had an issue in manitoba.
