Total fridge logic, but making it grokable helps increase the immersion for me. YMMV. |

So I linked to his post and wrote this: > I learned about the seer stones a few years ago, and I was shocked, as I'm sure many were. On the face of it, using seer stones to translate the Book of Mormon isn't much odder than what I had been previously taught, that <PERSON> used the <PERSON> and <PERSON> in a pair of spectacles. However, what concerns me is this: <PERSON> had previously used the seer stones to hunt for buried treasure. I have heard some point out that seer stones, folk magic, and treasure hunting were part of the culture at the time. That is true, but that doesn't mean it was an honest thing to do; <PERSON> was charged with being a disorderly person on account of his "glass looking" in 1826. Furthermore, there seems to be no indication that <PERSON> possessed any of the treasure seeking powers he claimed to have: all of his expeditions ended in failure, usually on account of an enchantment that prevented them from digging up the treasure. I'm not sure what to make of all this. (For those who are interested, you can read more in <PERSON> Rough Stone Rolling, beginning on page 48.) My dad called me this morning and told me that my mom was in tears over what I had wrote and of accusing <PERSON> of dishonesty. I asked him if there was anything I said that wasn't true. He responded that I should be thinking with my heart and trying to "uplift people in a darkening world", to which I replied with this [quote](https://www.reddit.com/r/exmormon/comments/4qayph/hugh_b_brown_on_following_facts_nailed_it/) by <PERSON>. I think everything I said was completely true and justifiable (heck, I just quoted <PERSON>, do they want to hear about the time <PERSON> sacrificed a dog?). I can understand how this would be disturbing to a lot of people, but they should be disappointed with <PERSON> for doing these things, not with me for pointing them out (at least that's my thinking). What if I posted about how it is likely that <PERSON> had sexual relations with a minor? Should we try to cover that up? I would receive no criticism for posting a story like that about anyone else. Gahh, I don't know. I don't want to cause strife in my family. What do you guys think? Edit: D'oh, I spelt <PERSON> wrong.

dg2b301 | ['c83da73e-2314-7549-5ccd-6571fad6c280'] | Completely stop eating beef (and lamb) and begin to phase milk (including related products like cheese and yoghurt) out of your diet. Animal agriculture is a huge contributor of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere just from emissions alone. The amount of land needed to raise cattle has a double effect - first carbon sequestering native vegetation is removed (and burned) and then carbon, methane and nitrous oxide producing cattle is placed on it and in time the now fallow soil releases its carbon too. Seriously, one of the best things you can ever do is stop eating beef. Additionally, if you do stop you'll stop supporting the beef industry in Australia (which makes up ~15% of global beef production) which will be even more helpful as beef production in Queensland (the state the GBR sits next to) drives deforestation in the state - Queensland has the highest rate of deforestation in Australia (pretty much entirely for beef production) and Australia has the highest rate of deforestation IN THE DEVELOPED WORLD. This deforestation means more runoff of fertiliser and soil, both of which are choking the reef, as vegetation would usually hold back the land from eroding and filter out the nutrients. Stop eating beef. It's so easy.

We’ve been listening to your reactions through our social channels, forums, EASHL Surveys and are happy to announce that we have released an EASHL Beta Gameplay Tuner that will download automatically once you jump back into the beta. >To make sure that everyone gets time to experience the new gameplay tuner and offer additional feedback - We are extending the EASHL Beta until Monday, August 10, 2015, on both Xbox One and PlayStation 4. The beta will end between 10:00 am - 12:00 pm PT. >This tuner will only impact gameplay and will not affect other in-game elements such as presentation or online connection. This tuner will update EASHL player class attributes and general gameplay elements to make the game more balanced. As this is a beta, your current experience will not fully represent what will be in NHL 16 when the game launches in September. We are incredibly appreciative of all the feedback so far, and we will continue to improve and refine the experience. >**EASHL Beta Gameplay Tuner:** >* Lowered AI faceoff attributes. * Lowered Power Forwards shot accuracy and chance to intercept the puck cleanly to make up for their strong puck control. * Lowered success of the standup goalie to cover the top of the net when in the butterfly. * Lowered strength of protecting the puck. Players will still absorb hits in the right situations, but it will lower the threshold of the strength of the collision to cause the player to stumble. * Lowered balance on all classes slightly to go hand in hand with the lowering of puck control strength when protecting the puck. * Decreased friction on boards to help regular passes kick around easier. * The goalie will favor the shooter more, taking away the short-side but will be more vulnerable to cross-ice passes as a result. * Lowered AI goalie speed moving across for passes. * Less goalie error on slower pucks on net towards their 5-hole. * Lowered AI goalie aggression to come out and play the puck and chance of flipping the puck over the glass. * Lowered goalie passing/shooting speed. * Decreased player controlled goalie speed in core movement (T-pushes and full butterfly pushes) to make them easier to control. * Lowered speed of goalie passing the puck out from their glove when they are covering the puck, and raised the ability for a near opponent to intercept it. | d36q2b3 | ['c85591c0-6ef0-5021-f757-5e205c236284'] | I wasn't even born during the 94 Finals, but just having to read the events and the eventual arrival of <PERSON> in Vancouver was messed up.

So I could get two Booming Blade attacks, but nothing is granting me an attack as a bonus action so TWF would never have a chance to trigger unless I forego the second Booming Blade for a normal attack action? If so seems like I should ignore TWF like you mention and go with Defense for that extra AC. I didn't even think about EK and War Magic. I was focused on Battle Master with Precision Attack, Riposte (for reaction damage), and Trip Attack. Do you think EK would be better? | 2a5jwv | ['c85638d1-55c0-4a40-045e-ca0254bac5e7'] | My favorite color ever since I learned the concept of colors as a child has been blue. The walls in my office are blue. The hoodie I have on is blue. My keyboard and mouse glow blue. The sky is blue. All of the decks I currently play are blue (Mono-U Devotion, Mono-U Tron, Mill). I am considering a Mono-U EDH deck. Focusing on one color seemed like a great way to start learning the game. I have an addiction to blue and I need to branch out. I feel I am missing out on a lot of Magic that I could be enjoying. I just love how blue plays. Lots of trickery, counters, buffs, debuffs, manipulation, and other mechanics that combine to make playing a complex and engaging experience (much like a game of chess). I may be simplifying things down a bit too much, but the impressions I get with the other colors are these: * **W**: More defensive than others. Vigilance, board wipes, and lifegain tend to be common. Seems a bit too passive for me? * **B**: Super aggressive. Heavy damage at the expense of your own life. I like the aggressiveness but I am still not comfortable (inexperienced) with managing my life as I use it to destroy. * **R**: Swarms of weak minions and damage spells. Seems a bit like black except more weaker creatures? * **G**: Big creatures with big fists. Seems very focused on getting a land advantage and hurling your large creatures early before opponents can handle them. Might be a bit boring? I have been considering trying to make a UB deck on the cheap to see if a combination of colors might still be enjoyable (or even more fun) than just blue. Are there any suggestions for color combinations and cheap decks that I could build to dip my toes into the experience? I don't know a ton about overall concepts with color combinations, like what the general goal of RUG is, how <PERSON> should be played, etc. but I am open to anything! |

She didn't overplay the result, or at least not by much: > I only have the data I have. I don’t know whether women were simply more willing to submit reviews that include critical language, or whether men removed language from their review documents before submitting. But the directional indication is striking and calls for further investigation by managers and HR departments. At most mid-size or large tech companies, HR leaders supervise review scores to uncover and correct patterns of systematic bias. This is a call to action to bring the same rigor to the review language itself. It's not a cast iron, peer-reviewed, impregnable piece of science. But it does seem reason enough to investigate further. | ci7ql4o | ['c85757a3-e1f3-7357-06d1-10ac191286bf'] | > Traders get paid the most, but accomplish almost nothing. This is tremendously unfair. A shopkeeper is a trader, and he has to keep stocks, predict what people want, negotiate prices with wholesalers — all so you can buy a can of Pepsi from him. That hardly sounds like nothing to me. If you meant some sort of stockbroker, much the same applies, but at a higher level. If you are helping Pfizer buy AstraZeneca you are potentially helping a company generate millions more in profits than they otherwise would, so the commission is higher in absolute terms. Teachers get paid little because it is run by the state, who have only a limited amount to spend. They also know it is one of those professions that attracts people because of its public service element, so there is less incentive to pay competitively. If you removed the state from schooling might even see teachers being paid more, as prices would be based far more on supply and demand. |

Did you know that many plants have more than two sets of chromosomes? And some plants "prefer" to have an uneven number of chromosomes to fuel specification. There are even prime numbers involved.... All plants use their form, vegetation period, metabolism and surrounding to forage, prevent predators and multiply, and evolution had hundreds of millions of years time to evolve and adapt to their environments. And then there are myriads of chemical compounds, plants produce, that are so specific and elaborated that I cant even figure out where to start. So i'd say, yes, studying plants IS rewarding. And don't let you scare from the systematic biology. It's fun once you got into the nomenclature. edit: damn, spelling and I'm not a botanist but an environmental scientist. But I did my share of plant physiology, Systematic Botany and biology. |

Go to school, come home, check under the pillow, nothing. Have dinner, check pillow, nothing. Pretty sad. So, from the kindness of my heart, I decided to intervene. I grabbed ALL the Monopoly money we had, and stuffed that under her pillow before we left for school. I just left the tooth under all the money. Fast forward, we get home, and she doesn't check under the pillow. *Hurry up and check!* Is all I can think. We have dinner, and she doesn't even go into our room. I'm miffed, thinking I put all this money there for nothing. Finally, it's time for bed, and I'm in the bathroom brushing my teeth when I hear a gleeful scream come from our room; *she found money!* My dad and I run in just as she's pulling her hand from under the pillow. It's glorious. In her hand, is this beautiful rainbow wad of Monopoly money. She looks at it, and instantly starts bawling. My dad has to hold on to the door, he's laughing so hard. He managed to ask who did it, and I reply that I did. This just makes him laugh harder. He eventually composed himself and comforted my sister. She never left anymore teeth under the pillow after that. |

See email from support below: Greg, May 24, 4:17 PM EDT: Hi there, Thank you for contacting Roblox Customer Service regarding purchase with balance game card credit. Currently, our payment system is not designed to accept partial payments between different purchasing methods, including between a game card and a credit card. We know this is a feature that many of our customers would like to see and while we don't have an anticipated date for it yet, we do hope to have this feature available in the future. Any membership or amount of Robux you select for purchase must be paid in full by one available method of purchase. Currently, if you do not have enough credit available on your Roblox account or game card to pay for your entire purchase, you will need to select a different payment method. The newly selected payment method will be charged for the full amount of the purchase and the account credit will not be able to be used during this transaction. Alternatively, you can redeem a Roblox game card on the account to add more credit and complete the purchase. One of our partnering vendors, GameStop, carries "variable load" Roblox cards in store. When purchasing this type of card, you are able to apply any amount, between 10 and 100 USD, you wish to the game card. The Game card help articles have additional information on game cards.

This conversation will therefore only serve to drive a wedge between us, and I'm not going to participate until we can both commit to really empathizing with each other."

He's spent the last week and a half dealing with his hyper-religious cousins, watching his grandfather die, and then going to the funeral, and finally got a chance to get a flight home yesterday afternoon. On top of the fact that I've been worried and haven't been able to be near him to comfort him, we haven't had time to Skype or have a real phone call in three weeks. He's also one of those people who needs plenty of time to himself when he's in pain, so even our usual chatting has been less frequent. I spent my evening with some shitty Chinese food, trawling the Internet for amusing/comforting links to send him. But even so, I'm glad he got home ok, and I know he's been trying really hard to keep me updated and feeling loved through all this (we've had problems in the past with me feeling like he shuts me out when he's hurting, which is why this means a lot). I haven't been able to be near him, but I've gotten to send him hand-made drawings and emails and Imgur links telling him I'm here and I love him. Valentine's Day isn't the most important holiday to either one of us, so missing it isn't too much of a big deal- we can and try to make each other feel special the rest of the year, instead. I booked a ticket to go see him next month, and it finally looks like we'll find a way to end the distance within a year or two. And he and my family are (at long last) starting to be more understanding towards each other. So overall, I think we're both still really, absurdly lucky to have each other, and we'll come through all of this and be that much stronger for it. Thanks for posing this question! :) How was your day? |

I would venture to guess that most Anglo-Saxon enthusiasts and scholars start out with or at least have read through *Bright's Old English*. The grammar section is quite thorough and the annotated reader that follows is very helpful and clear. You can use this to get your feet wet. Then, you can use these in conjunction: * *A Concise Anglo-Saxon Dictionary* by <PERSON> (ISBN: 0-8020-6548-1) * *A Guide to Old English* by <PERSON> and <PERSON><PHONE_NUMBER>) * *A Guide to Old English* by Bruce Mitchell and Fred C. Robinson (ISBN: 978-1405146906) I'm not sure what edition these two are currently in; those are the ISBNs for my editions. The first is, well, a dictionary. The second is a drier grammatical book than *Bright's Old English*, in my opinion, and more encyclopedic in style. However, I've used the two together to better my grasp on Anglo-Saxon. Hope that helps! EDIT: Changed a strange idiom... | cxg5tlx | ['c87666bb-6d9a-993d-420f-d07b7bd4f6e9'] | There is that.

She texted me every 5 minutes, from when she woke up to when she went to sleep (not exaggerating) for months on end. Constantly wanted to have sex at all hours of the day while trying to talk me out of using a condom. The one time I actually folded, she sent me an image of a positive pregnancy test the next day. Eventually, she admitted to that being fake and was an attempt to get me to propose to her. That was a little too much crazy for me so I broke up with her. It only got worse after that. The texts increased to the point I had to block her phone. And then she started using random public phones to call me. Eventually, I decided to give her "one more chance". We met at a family restaurant. She gets belligerently drunk in said restaurant. After we left and are walking down the street, she breaks down and starts screaming at me "Give me my baby!". She was causing such a scene that I was honestly worried about getting arrested. So yeah, broke up with her for good after that. It's been a year since then. I've left the country (Japan) and have moved back to the states. I'm still getting e-mails from her under various names so I can't block her. |

Like, GWAMM could make the portrait all golden/shiny, explorer could give it a kind of naturalistic look, maybe stuff like specific boss titles could give stuff in regards to the boss. I don't know if <PERSON> has a title tied to him at all, but to use it as an example it could be that getting his title gives the portrait a crystal look when equipped. Or stuff like the Golden title makes the bottom of the portrait filled with gold coins/money bags, you know, not gameplay affecting but still desirable. | ch77hd1 | ['c87803dd-0c0e-0f73-f6c1-f9ca29e4e773'] | There's a new class this month as well as leveling bonuses to help players more quickly get from 1 - 60 so everyone can try out the Reaper or at least get incentives to try it.

Or the uber driver that held a great conversation the whole ride? He makes more than minimum wage. What about that barista you see every day that puts just the right amount of foam on your late? She makes more than minimum wage. Everyone here is acting like all servers are dimwits that just bring food to tables. I understand that it could be the case in some places. But most servers deserve a little extra tip. If you don't think they do then don't tip them. That's actually how tips work you know. It's not a mandatory thing. It's the suggested norm. A tip is defined as a gift or a sum of money tendered for a service performed or anticipated. If you feel like your server did not preform the tasks that needed to be preformed then don't tip. Simple as that. |
duhwdbf | ['c8adaece-c19d-f304-3c39-eaf8613ebb7f'] | In every serialized story things that came before are canon only when referenced by things that come later. This is true for TNG as well, with its depiction of the Trill, for instance, being utterly overwritten by DS9. I am sure this will continue to happen as TREK series continue to be made. | 75awol | ['c8adaece-c19d-f304-3c39-eaf8613ebb7f'] | Over the past four weeks this sub has been roiling with debate over whether DISCO is "real TREK" or not. There have been arguments made on both sides, neither side seeming to convince the other. Let me argue a third way: There is no such thing as real STAR TREK. Every series is unique and has its own voice. As someone who grew up with TOS I found TNG to be boring, tedious, ugly and no fun. It was not "real STAR TREK" to me. I couldn't imagine anyone watching this flying Holiday Inn lounge and its crew of soporific nobodies and thinking their adventures compared at all to those of <PERSON>, <PERSON> and <PERSON>. But for many people THAT is TREK. And I accept that, even though it has no resemblance to the two-fisted action and wacky scifi premises of the 60s show I loved. Then came DS9, which many people said wasn't "real TREK" because nobody boldly went, and because it was dark. Then came VOYAGER - I don't remember many arguments over the Trekkiness of that show when it first aired, but I do remember many arguments over its quality. Finally there was ENTERPRISE, which showed us a very different vision of the early Federation, and brought more human foibles and problems into the future. Many argued about that show as well, complaining about its lack of TREKness from its dark war storylines to its very goofy theme song. Let's not even get into the movies. There is no such thing as "real TREK." There's TREK you like - a series you click with, a character you identify with - but there's no fundamental, unchangeable core of what TREK is. TNG is totally different from TOS, DS9 is its own beast, etc. DISCO is also its own thing. You don't have to like DISCO, but to argue that it isn't TREK? Well, besides rehashing 30 years of tedious nerd arguments, it just isn't true. Because there's no solid state THING you can point to and say "That is the platonic ideal of TREK." You can find stories, characters and themes from all over 50 years of canon that range from light to dark, funny to heavy, goofy to deep. TREK is ALL THESE THINGS. That's what TREK truly is - a franchise that embraces the totality of the human experience, from good to bad, and that has the scope to examine it from many different angles. |

As amazing hunters as seals are, great whites hammer them daily with equal speed and greater violence. Scenes like this are cool until you realize sharks move with equal stealth and greater danger in the same depths. |

With pot, it's never going to be a physical, carnal, primal type addiction where you would literally go to the ends of the earth and kill people to get it. That's just not the nature of the drug, like it is with meth and heroin etc. I certainly don't mean to minimize anyone else's struggle by saying I'm addicted to pot when it hardly affects my life at all, but I do believe I am psychologically addicted to it. When I don't have it, getting some is my #1 priority. Would I sell my TV or PS4 to get some? Never.

It's called Ortsabwesenheitserlaubnis and it is possible to extend it to 6 weeks in special cases but forget 3 months. ALG is for people actively available to work at least 15 hours per week. Sperrzeit is just a sanction for failing to comply with the requirements, not a holiday. And just in case it wasn't clear, the Sperrzeit is taken out of your entire Anspruchsdauer. Meaning of your granted ALG for 12 months, you'll actually be getting money only for 9 months (max). For the first three months you have the right to decline a job for specific reasons, for example the new job would pay less than 75% of your old one. After three months of unemployment you can be asked to take up employment even if it means a significant reduction in your pay. And if the Arbeitsagentur send you to apply for a job, they get feedback from the employer (whether you applied; the quality of your application; whether you showed up to an interview; etc).

If you want to get a full overview of your rights and duties as an unemployed person, read Paragraf 45 of SGB III Edit: you are allowed to refuse any job because you have the constitutional right to free choice of profession, but the Arbeitsagentur can drop your support for "lack of cooperation" if you decline or not apply to jobs | cudsaxr | ['c9085609-6d37-2388-a3dd-42c6a2e3cf71'] | As NRI and <PERSON> type, I <3 Delhi.

Moscow is total hell, rude doesn't even begin to describe it. Only place on earth where I've had elbows jammed into my ribs intentionally (not just once) so somebody could get ahead onto the escalator. Crime? You guys have seen nothing.

Delhi police is under the Central government that's why serious crime usually happens in Noida, Gurgaon.

I'm pretty sure almost any small to medium sized town in India has more rapes, which never make it into the news. You want to see what crime in a big city is like? Just read the news about Detroit, Jo'burg, D.C. Athens which probably has one tenth of the population and twice the police force of Delhi, has running fights between police and anarchists, arson, stones, molotov cocktails flying in the air at least 15 days per year. The capital of USA has shooting and gang fights on the streets, can you even imagine any of this in Delhi?? Delhi might have jaats, but it is also the city of Ghalib, Zafar, the Mughals, a tapestry of history whichever way you turn, the empires and dynasties that have come and gone, Mughals, British, <PERSON>-Gandhi dynasty, the refugees who came from Pakistan and built a life, and after 1984 built it again.

There is no city of the world as capable of capturing your heart as this. |

dnsapdz | ['c9152316-c41f-c756-9e13-d01b19e8e983'] | I'd argue that the game isn't (or at least wasn't) that DPS oriented, since most strategies after Season 1 was enabled by tanks and support. Beyblade meta existed because of the speed boost on Ana's nanoboost. Dive meta existed because of D.va's DM and <PERSON>. Triple tank was around because of Ana's insane healing output and D.va's large armor pool. Individually, nothing is wrong with these strategies. But Blizzard and a good chunk of the community hate when they become too prominent/effective in both professional games and general competitive matches, because then it's the only thing that people ever do. So to spice things up they change whichever tank or support the meta is based around. If the meta every revolves around a particular DPS (as it did with Widowmaker and Bastion), you can be sure they'll get hit with a nerf soon. That said, I can't find a legitimate reason anymore why they nerfed Roadhog. He didn't really enable any particular meta, and they're whole "tanks should tank and not have high damage output" argument is invalidated by the D.va changes. Ideally he'll get the <PERSON> treatment so that he can be more effective at his purpose (whatever they decide that should be). | dzom09j | ['c9152316-c41f-c756-9e13-d01b19e8e983'] | The outlawing of Talos was part of the peace agreement that ended the Great War.

For Skyrim, that threat is the <PERSON> winning, taking over Cyrodiil, and getting free reign of land.

The argentinian oil politics were extremely flawed before the Kirchners (i'm not kirchnerist, i'm just naming the facts). On the other hand, the unilateral decisions made by GB are not something new: in 1991 autorized a law voted for the government of Malvinas, in which is stated the position about the oil-production: don't give a shit about what <PERSON> had to say. In 1995 british and argentinian government signed an agreement of cooperation, but just a month later the Malvinas government opened a licitation to look for oil in its coasts, without the permission (not even a previuos notification) of the Argentinian Government. In 2000, the Malvinas Governament declared the Offshore Petroleum (Licensing) Regulations 2000, and in that year it gave permissions to look for oil all around Malvinas (even in the Argentine sea), again, without checking with the GoA first. When <PERSON> assumed as President, relationships changed, and the always "be calm and be scared of them" politic around this issue changed completely. The Malvinas were first claimed by Spain, and when the declaration of Independence was signed, all the territories belonging to the Spanish Crown became to be part of the new nation. Say: Patagonia, Malvinas, Northern populations and the center of the country. Besides, as we discussed before, there where people in the islands when britain invaded them. The Patagonia has nothing to do with it, and neither does the aborigens: there were absolutely NOBODY in the islands when the first commission arrived. They were absolutely desert. So, again, it's not about the originiary people, it's about who occupied them first, and who, 10 years later, decided to invade them. The actions of <PERSON> are not important, because he was in representation of the Argentinian Government. Whatever he decided to do after the invasion does not correspond to anything we are arguing here. You could even say he didn't like Argentina, because he was in debt with the government (main cause for which he was sent to the islands). It's not something related just to one person: It's about the whole country. I think we agree that, historically, they belong to Argentina. Socially, they belong to themselves. Certainly, they do not belong to GB. But even if they did, dialoge is needed. Unilateral desitions are not helpful. Edit: Minor historical mistake. I'm sorry. Edit2: Grammar. |

c8wlkdt | ['c96216f5-0a6a-f00a-5ce6-8d28b89606e6'] | I would avoid the part about not being able to disprove something - it needlessly complicates things. Think in terms of the scope of knowledge required to know something does or doesn't exist. Would you agree that if you lack any knowledge of any god (as you seem to) that you also lack belief in any god? That's atheism. Your feelings about the existence of god can be categorized along two axis: belief and knowledge. The two are very different, right? You can believe something even if it's false ("I believe I left my car keys on the table" can be a legitimately held belief even though the keys are under the sink) but we tend to think of knowledge as being pinned to something true. And there's great debate over whether absolute knowledge is even possible, let alone knowledge that there really is a god. Atheism measures belief. If you lack belief in a god you are an atheist. Agnosticism measures knowledge. If you lack knowledge of a god (whether it's because you remain unconvinced or you doubt such knowledge is even possible) you are an agnostic. This is why most atheists are agnostic atheists. | c9njd0f | ['c96216f5-0a6a-f00a-5ce6-8d28b89606e6'] | There's no way the silk road is a honeypot.

I'm a user experience and interaction designer, not a graphic designer. I feel like industry conferences (for your industry) are beneficial at two times in your career: early on, when you don't know what you don't know, as they help give you the lay of the land and you can meet other professionals and network broadly; and later in your career, where these are the events where you see the old friends and colleagues you "started out" with, and it's more about having dinners and drinks and conversations than attending sessions. There's this middle ground where conferences in your own industry aren't presenting advanced enough material any more that it's worth attending the sessions versus just doing the work yourself or contacting the speaker directly, and where it's also not worth attending just for the beers with colleagues because you're doing enough work that you're talking with them elsewhere anyway. In that middle part of your career, it's perhaps more beneficial to attend conferences outside of your industry, like ones on archiving, or on publishing, or on environmental design, or whatever. Things that are related, sort of, where you can be a newbie again and see what other people are doing in other industries and become refreshed. For the other two times in your career, perhaps it almost doesn't matter at all what conferences you attend, just that you attend them. | crvhw | ['c97050f5-10a1-a938-4d4d-8d04e41ea0be'] | There are some public domain (verifiably out-of-copyright) design books held by the UT Libraries and Harry Ransom Center that I'd like to scan.

WoW's raid and dungeon content has gotten so dry and easy that most guilds can down a boss within 5 pulls having never seen the fight before, due entirely to the fact that almost every mechanic can be handled by 1/4th of the raid or just isn't tuned to a point that failing at it will matter. I dont see how you can say that Wildstar has no replayability value by comparing it to WoW, which has almost 0 replayability value other than getting free loot week after week. The only thing I can think of as to why some people feel this way is that they dont want to have to try to down a boss the second time, they want to mindlessly press buttons until loot appears instead of having to sometimes reprogress on a fight week after week because they switched 2 people out and cannot straight carry them. Nearly every raid boss in this game requires you to play near perfectly against the mechanics as having 1-2 people die early on in the fight normally means a wipe. Compare this to WoW where in a 25 man raid you can get up to 1 person up every 2 mins of a fight depending on comp, not that you need all 25 in the first place. Most every DPS check is tuned to having everyone having half a set of gear from a tier under it and 80% of the dps alive. |

With the above figures, our ratio is 4761.9 : 1, however we cannot compare XRP to BTC fairly in a 1 for 1 manner as they are made up by differing amounts of basic units. 1 Bitcoin is made up of 100,000,000 satoshis, and 1 xrp is made up of 1,000,000 drops, so there are 100x more satoshis per Bitcoin than there are drops per XRP. When we compare the total amount of satoshis to the total amount of drops, our ratio is 47.619 : 1. So if you own say 50 xrp, it is the equivalent of owning slightly more than 1 Bitcoin in terms of your % ownership of the total supply. In fact, neither ledger recognises Bitcoin or XRP, they only recognise satoshis and drops, when you buy 50 xrp, you are actually buying 50,000,000 drops. That is what the ledger recognises, a decimal point is used purely to make it easier to read. So next time you hear about the "huge" supply of xrp, remember that the supply is only approx 47x greater than Bitcoin, yet right now, the price of xrp is more than 12,000x cheaper than Bitcoin. This is why I believe xrp can attain 100x of whatever your price prediction might be. |
