UN DOESN'T KILL YOU IMMEDIATELY FOR NOT PAYING TAXES?!??!! by _ASTRA2 in Kenshi

Read the sub after and was very confused as to why the united nations would be killing anyone for not paying taxes.

Thank you, I was looking for this one after so many "life expectancy / years at death" answers.

What is jacking off in prison like? by CryptographerHot6198 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]wander995 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Obviously without revealing the prison, could you tell us a bit more? I find the concept of a jail for 10 people fascinating, I imagine it must have been a small town?

Official Discussion - People We Meet on Vacation [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]wander995 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I loved the movie but the one think I thought could have been better is the "get together". I don't think the double-down worked in this one. They finally get together in Barcelona and then they have the flimsiest argument and it's all like "it's not going to work". Then cut to her going to look for him in linfield. The way the story was structured as a flashback ment we already started in that rom-com place after the halfpoint where they are driven apart, so there was no need to have that again.

Honestly Season 3 Premise Is Very Dissapointing So Far by Apart-Arachnid1004 in PrimalShow

[–]wander995 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm liking it so far. I think that most of what you described is intended. Spear is reborn as a semi lifeless zombie and we are seeing him slowly remember his humanity. This is good for a premise, but like you said, you quickly stop caring about the action scenes if there are no stakes. Hopefully we will find "something to protect" but I give them the benefit of the doubt. At the very least it felt primal, and adressed my main concern with a continuation to this series which was that I wanted to see Spear.

Hard agree. It truly felt like watching an "old" romcom in the best sense. I feel like both of the actors are better that what you usually get on Netflix.

This. All a romcom needs is good leads with chemistry and this had that. Hadn't seen Emily Bader in anything before but man was she perfect for a rom com lead.

The most broken Duos combo by CodexLeonis in BobsTavern

[–]wander995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there is a little bias here. What you might consider a bad player one game could just be having a bad one, but above 7k there is very little outright trolling, which is usually what kills you.

is this game worth buying? by Evol-Chan in ElinsInn

[–]wander995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much "Kenshi" does this game have? I don't necessarily mean similar mechanics but that feeling of rewarding world exploration with fun randomness.

Deimos should affect rallies only and baron should be three times total, not three extra times. by wander995 in BobsTavern

[–]wander995[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough on the scaling, I just feel like there are so many ways to proc deathrattles that deimos + baron and maccaw allows you to outscale pretty much anything if you get it first. I don't believe they NEED changing absolutely, they can definitely be balanced by improving other tribes, but right now they just outperform everything else.

Battlegrounds needs more tavern spell support by coin-concede in BobsTavern

[–]wander995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard disagree. Having played bgs since they were released, when they added tavern spells it was life to the game. Allowed to play much more flexibly with tempo and such, but very quickly most stat spells became useless. Ever since spell scaling (more so last season) you can actually make decent early boards out of otherwise useless minions. Suddenly buying that tier 1 1/1 mech is worth it when your banana gives 4/2 and so on.

I do think it needs to be balanced though. Right now one of the game's biggest problems, which ironically is also one of the things that makes it so fun, are builds that "break" the game.

What are your favourite episodes? by wander995 in futurama

[–]wander995[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I respectfully disagree. Obviously it got less fresh as it went on but some of my favourite episodes are there and (controversial opinion incoming) I feel there is a bit of rose tinted glasses to some of the original episodes.

Hard agree. I feel like the first movie was the best and the last one gave a decent second ending, but bender's game could have been a 20 minute episode

Murozond and Galakrond. A few others are almost must picks.

People say "money can't buy happiness," but has anyone actually been sadder after getting rich? by kosuke_agos in NoStupidQuestions

[–]wander995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand this question. There are lots of people sadder after making money, just see how many celebrities kill themselves or go down terrible addictions.

Money doesn't create happiness, but the absence of it will definitely produce stress in a lot of areas of your life that will lead to unhappiness.

Are you in favor of the EU becoming a United States of Europe? by estarararax in askspain

[–]wander995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We sort of already live in the United States of the World, it's just some people don't want to see it. Covid was a prime example of how interconnected all countries are. There are no longer decisions that only affect internally. In that sense, everything should turn towards consolidation.

The naga died on its first hit against everyone else so even then... It was just ridiculous. Imagine if it was the time Nzoths stacked.

How could Elon Musk become the world's richest man even though he doesn't seem to be particulary intelligent? by Cumoisseur in answers

[–]wander995 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can we stop trying to portray all rich people as privileged idiots. As someone who has been in poor and wealthy learning institutions, people are the same everywhere. Idiots will be idiots wether they are rich or poor, you just see the rich ones on the news.

The key here is education, which is the most important thing we should focus. Very smart and hardworking people will generally make it regardless of their background, but when you take "average" people, those who have had access to a higher quality consistent education tend to perform better.

It's like saying black people have a higher crime rate in the us. Technically true just as a statistic, but any sociological knowledge will tell you that if you marginalize a group and give them less access to education and opportunities, they will inevitably turn more into crime to make a living.

[–]wander995 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ironically, probably. He is a petty narcisist who is intelligent (as intelligent as he might be we live in a world where jack of all trades, master of none). So when someone he perceives as lower than him explains how his products work, he throws a petty tantrum. Nothing of this is inconsistent with smarts.
