c33livd | ['e4f3c1ec-0735-2ffc-5607-728811816bc4'] | Yes. I liked that Chamber of Secrets sort of takes a break from the "primary" plot of the series to visit <PERSON>'s past as <PERSON>. If I recall correctly, the journal had very little to do with <PERSON>'s primary goal of regaining his power and defeating <PERSON>, making the whole book a bit of a side adventure/investigation of the main villain's history. These could, of course, be excellent reasons why it is a bad book, but personally I appreciate things that have no purpose in the larger story but ultimately add character to the feel of the series. I like <PERSON> as a very easy-to-hate sub-villain. I assume you mean he's poorly written, which is something I haven't really put a lot of thought into, but in my readings of the book I didn't really get that sense. As for it being Sorcerer's Stone 1.5, I can definitely see an argument for the book being a bit of dithering on <PERSON>'s part while she tried to figure out what to do with the rest of the series, but even if it is, I still like the end result because it seems to stand apart from the rest of the series in an odd way. Goblet of Fire I partially like for sentimental reasons, as it was the most recently written book when I picked up the series, but also because of it's grand, large-structured-event-based plot. I really enjoy the Quidditch World Cup as a somewhat independent vignette into the world of wizardry, and I'm a total sucker for the "three tasks" structure provided by the Triwizard Tournament. It could be seen as cheap or easy, but for some reason that kind of structure appeals to me. Maybe it has something to do with my love of video games. I also like how the accepted structure is broken by the false Cup at the end, and how it's one of the first times a character is killed off (this is a bit of a guess, I haven't thought it through... I feel like I'm missing an obvious one but I can't think of it), and how it is the beginning of <PERSON>'s second rise to power, kicking off the series' second act. | c33hx50 | ['e4f3c1ec-0735-2ffc-5607-728811816bc4'] | Best in the sense of most challenging, impressive, or skillfully written: -Infinite Jest -House of Leaves Best in the sense of enjoyable, lovable, awesome, etc: -Hitchhiker's Guide Series -Ender's Game (and sequels, but they're rather different in a lot of ways) -Harry Potter, particularly Chamber of Secrets and Goblet of Fire -A Song of Ice and Fire (also somewhat in the "impressive" category) |

You need to take time to understand the growth process of the Christian Life. 1. Coming to <PERSON> was an automatic result of the Laws and commandments. The law gave us a sense knowledge of sin, guilt and condemnation, at the same time, it was clear no one could fully obey the law. So it led us to <PERSON> as Our Saviour 2. Now that we have come to <PERSON>, we are not supposed to have that sense of condemnation and guilt of sin because His blood washes us from all our sins and even more so we are the righteousness of God. At this point you should be more righteous conscious than sin conscious. 3. People can come to God for all kinds of reason but if it’s not for the reason of knowing that without Him they cannot save themselves and they are willing to receive God’s life in them through <PERSON> by GRACE ( thus being Born - Again in the family of God) , they will not rely on God’s Grace for their continuing walk n fellowship with GOD I will recommend a book (Pure Grace) and messages that helped me personally [What is Grace ?](https://youtu.be/zRtJKUyukAg) | e0mauhe | ['e4fd353c-3c2a-65a0-721b-a22097bcbbd9'] | Thank you ... so first of all You think because the church has used HELL as a tool to drive fear in people ( which I agree is wrong ) then your solution is to prove that it doesn’t exist ? 🤷♂️🤷♀️ For what purpose ... to satisfy the atheist or who ever that God exist 🙆♂️ am not sure if you prove the non existence of HELL, that will suddenly start bring convincing them the believe there is a God 🤦♂️🤦♀️ As much as that fear has locked people up for year, people must learn to take personal responsibility for their Christian learning beyond any church doctrine to investigate if those things been taught are so or not. But back to my point the existence of Hell or no Hell is irrelevant to our Christian Fellowship with God. It’s non sequential to our relationship with God.

I'm still quite new to DMing so was very unsure how to proceed. I eventually ruled that the characters were 'attacking' and that it felt like the bugbear would potentially anticipate them trying to do something to it so that it might have advantage due to that anticipation. I suppose my main concern is the strength of the charm person spell. It seems quite strong, especially in this instance as it lasts for 1 hour in game and my understanding is the players could persuade the bugbear to fight for them against the remaining wolf and 2x goblins. I don't want to make it impossible, but the fight is basically won at that point as the bugbear is much stronger than the remaining enemies. These facts make me feel like it should be reasonably hard to do and thus the advantage works pretty well for that fight. |

d8045f9 | ['e510c538-a6ba-3b89-c15e-0567989cd55a'] | It is absolutely wonderful that you and your fiance have come to God together, hand-in-hand. I know that God blessed you with that rainbow and He is looking over you. After the Flood receded in Genesis, God said this: 'And God said, “This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.” So God said to <PERSON>, “This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all life on the earth.”' - Genesis 9 When I read that, I am reminded of all the symbolism behind water in the Bible. I think of the Flood, the parting of the Red Sea, <PERSON> walking on water, and baptism. While water can overcome us and drown us, <PERSON> pulls us out of the water (like <PERSON>) and saves us. The rainbow reminds us of this. So does baptism. Baptism is a testimony that <PERSON> saved us.

I said their identities were being reduced to that of a sexual object simply there for titillation within the confines of this performance. > Seeing someone in a sexual context does not lock them into that perception for life, despite what the sex negative faction will try to tell you That is absurd and I never suggested that. I stated that for the duration of this performance, and only this performance, these women were being reduced from humans, or women, or dancers, to simple sex objects for the pleasure of the audience. I don't think that is constructive for their self worth or for the way these children will grow up thinking about themselves or others. > Music is an artistic expression that has a long history of visual accompaniment (Opera, movies, broadway musicals) and sexuality is a perfectly valid subject matter for expression. Right. I agree. Like I said before, if these women were expressing anything *about* sexuality through the artistic medium of dance, I think it would be fine. Are you seriously comparing this to opera or a broadway musical? These women are not using their talents to convey any meaning whatsoever. There is nothing profound codified in their movements. Do not sugar coat this. They are simply moving in time with the music in such a way as to incite primal lust in viewers. That's it. When people look at these women they don't see women with volition, hopes, dreams or nuanced personalities. They see sexualized bodies. It's fine if they're happy, I just think that if these women had the critical thinking skills to evaluate the way people thought about them and how this type of performance portrays them as people they might want seek a career which garners respect and admiration and allows them to exist on more than one dimension. Regardless, it's whatever I just feel like kids are a little naive to be saturated in sexuality. |

I was with a group that had a "guide" who basically turned out to be a security guard. We couldn't go anywhere alone. He was appalled that we wanted to go to the beach on our own; he begged us not to bring anything but a towel, not even a plastic watch! On the way there we noticed the cab driver *never* stopped at red lights. The lifeguards were packing heat and gangs of the "Guardian Angels" patrolled the beach. He took us to a shopping area and I observed him paying someone to watch his car on the street so it wouldn't be stolen or vandalized. We went to a club and all the patrons had their pop-out car radios in hand because otherwise they would be stolen out of their cars. Initially, we thought he was incredibly paranoid, but soon it dawned on us that this was a way of life in Brazil. Constantly looking around for danger, never having nice stuff in public (even the cheapest tote bag was considered a nice accessory), and never being alone in public, especially as a tourist. Our guide was employed by a tour company to ensure tourists weren't targets, but I realized that by virtue of having a decent job/car/home, he too was in danger everyday.

Violence and slavery are the only meaningful interspecies bond as the animal kingdom has become entirely subjected to the caprices and will of childhood fantasy. | crlw4ge | ['e5173606-79d0-ed76-3af3-e33b2c8ef47c'] | Hi, PhD in Cultural History and "Professor" here (I teach part-time as a grad student and am not a professor, but my students call me one anyway). I'm in one of the more "marginalized" fields as others tend to think we just talk about theory and matters of little urgency or direct importance to today's world. We used to dominate the field, but the Empire has fallen. So my two cents might be of use to you! At the undergraduate level, History teaches you a very useful and easily applied skill set that can be pursued within the field or put to use beyond if you wish. You will learn history, of course, but you will also train in research methods to develop a critical eye for texts. This sounds like the boring part, but apart from actually being fascinating in its own right, is what makes history grads competitive and attractive in the market. If you are serious about learning history, immerse yourself in the field: what works are considered classics and what historians are doing now, not only in your area of interest, but in general. The downsides to history are that if you plan to leave the field after your BA, your skill set isn't necessarily as specialized comparative to everyone else entering the market. This is going to mean that your access to entry level jobs is somewhat more restricted to lower paying positions, and if you aren't careful to think about how you can market your skills or apply them broadly, the job market will be very, very brutal to you. If you decide that you want to continue with graduate studies, an MA will put you in a more competitive position and open up better work opportunities. At this point in time, if you want to do anything remotely related to history or apply your skill set in a relevant capacity (NGO work, think tanks, cultural programs and institutions, education, administration, etc.), an MA is necessary. You should know as well that even within history, the job market is saturated with qualified talent as tenure-track positions dwindle. It is highly competitive and crucial that you form meaningful professional relationships to cast a wide net. The field is fickle, and is dominated by in-fashion trends, which means everyone and their mother is doing a certain kind of work to make themselves look marketable. My TL;DR advice would be this: if you are absolutely certain that you have a passion for interpreting the past (and you really really really love to read and write), do it.

dd4clnj | ['e52715d3-76d7-9dd6-6993-4eb5346356cb'] | Hello, this is my CZ scorpion Evo it’s a direct blowback 9mm short barreled rifle. This rifle has a Primary Arms Advance dot, a CZ Custom Trigger, and for the picture I have one of the new Manticore 32 round magazines with metal feed lips. We tested a few of the new mags today and they did very well, one of them literally broke the rock we were hitting it up against. A video of that will come out some time this week I think, but not from me. I really enjoy this rifle for its low recoil and cheap ammo. The CZ trigger is extremely good and adjustable. It is a bit costly though but it’s easily the best trigger on the market for the gun. A few notes about the mags, like I said earlier they held up great. Better in fact than the gen 2 CZ evo mag did, which all by itself is a success in my opinion. A few things to know about the manticore mags is for one they’re longer, about an inch. They do have two round higher capacity than stock though. Second is at least with my mag it doesn’t seem to want to drop free, it’s easy to pull out but it won’t do it own its own. That could be a problem to some folks I don’t really care since it’s a range toy. Thirdly they cost more, I believe $29 is the rate and stock mags cost $20. But I still plan to buy this from now on, I think they’re worth it. If you have any questions feel free to ask away. | d1fk1lq | ['e52715d3-76d7-9dd6-6993-4eb5346356cb'] | This is what I always tell people at work who say they're thinking about building a .300blk AR.

So I submit, for your review, my very first piece of TES world-fiction! I encourage all comments and critiques, so that I can do better the next time! And I do intend to do this again, especially if you all like it.** *--The following is a brief overview of the events surrounding the fall of the city of Anvil during the Great War, circa 4E 172. It was prepared for the eyes of Penitus Oculatus Interrogator <PERSON>, per his request.* As a part of Lord <PERSON>'s initial campaign through southern Cyrodiil, a sizeable force of his troops (roughly 400 Thalmor, composed mostly of Justicar spellswords, supplemented by a contingent of Khajiiti sappers) were dispatched to the west, as a sort of "western-wing", with the intent of intercepting any attempted counter-attacks. As the Thalmor found out, however, their surprise invasion was more successful than they realized, and the western-wing's objective was changed from purely defense and reconnaissance to conquest. The wing's commander, one <PERSON>, was instructed by Lord <PERSON> to secure a route for reinforcements to be brought from Valenwood. The Vicar set her sights on the Colovian port of Anvil, most likely intending to utilize its deep harbor and proximity to both ~~Alinor~~ Summerset and Valenwood as a reliable pathway for more troops and supplies to be moved into the province. The Western Wing forged north from the Gold Road, fighting a minor skirmish with outriders from Skingrad that seemed to dissuade <PERSON> from straying too close to city. Instead, she moved her troops east through the Reserve, leaving a trail of burnt forests and pillaged farmland in her wake. Upon entering County Kvatch, she sent a small probing force (the number actually varies from about 50 troops to well over 200, depending on the source) towards the city proper. They merely remained within sight of the fortifications for several hours, then departed northwest, linking back up with the Vicar. After successfully making it fully east of Kvatch proper without incident, Izlandi marched south. After recrossing the Gold Road and entering County Anvil, she met a force of Bosmeri light infantry (roughly 200, all told), which had forded the Sirid river to support Lord <PERSON>'s bit on Kvatch and Skingrad (both of which held out through the duration of the conflict). <PERSON> absorbed the entire contingent and pushed west at a breakneck pace. It can be assumed that a lack of resistance thus far, despite her daring push through northern Cyrodiil (coming dangerously close to Skyrim), had <PERSON> worried, and thus it was her intention to smash into Anvil and take the city as quickly as possible, |

To add drop through, you need to set your y velocity to a positive value **and** disable the collision against the platform temporarily if(keyboard_check_pressed(ord('S')) && grounded && place_meeting(x, y+1+offset, obj_one_way_platform)) // or whatever the "down" direction is... offset is how many pixels from your origin (set it in the sprite) to the bottom most pixel { ySpeed = 2; // just picked a random number grounded = false; //we're not grounded so we can not jump (unless air jumping is something you're doing) collide_with_one_way = false; // set up a timer, and check for collide_with_one_way to be true in the collision code first. //this prevents getting stuck in the ground, and only lets the player fall through a platform //that they should be able to, instead of the whole game. } after the timer (make it short), set your collide_with_one_way back to true. the place_meeting part is important because thats what's going to prevent the player from falling through *every* platform in your game. If you didn't know, && means and. It requires everything to be true in order to do whats in the if statement. If you do like what I recommended, in my reply to the OP, you'll have a generic check for any platform, and a check for one ways. Since they are handled differently, you'll need a check anyway to see if you're above them when you're falling (if (y+offset < other.y) inside the if statement checking for the place_meeting), so this shouldn't cause a problem where you suddenly get stuck because you're moving down through the one way. The problem with doing y++ on the move down button is: you're now giving the player the ability to ignore ANY collision downwards and force moving downwards (never give the player that kind of control in a platformer), even when they shouldn't be able to (because you check movement speed in collision, not exact locations). Pretty much, you're letting the playing unknowingly edit the y value directly. Obviously, the obnoxiously long variable name is just so you know what it is, you don't have to name it that in practice (and I wouldn't). |

They didn't count rape by envelopment as rape, so you need to add some figures together to get the number of men raped. [Here](http://newmalestudies.com/OJS/index.php/nms/article/view/59/59) is one study that outlines the state of the research on domestic violence. It has lots of other studies cited in it.

The truth is we don't know how often it happens. Of rapes reported to the police between 2-8% are found to be false. We don't know how many of them are true, but the upper bound is the conviction rate. |

I have several ideas for scenes that I can send out - but before that, I'd just like to trade some info and see if we "click." Ideally, I'm looking for a partner or two that can roleplay for a while. Please no one-liners - I'm not going to respond to those and some mention in your title or body that you read the entire post would be a good sign too. :-) I have most of the day free again without the kids or husband, so I thought I'd post again.

So here we are... I'd ideally play some version of myself in a roleplay in terms of age and looks etc. At the moment, my primary interest is some form of age play that also involves kinks. Probably nothing crazy extreme, but more kinky than my vanilla lifestyle is. I'd probably draw the line at any bondage, but up to that point - I'm open and we can discuss. I do enjoy rough, hard sex, group scenes and age play sound most interesting and I would love to hear about your kinks as well. Inter-Racial stuff would be great and I like scenes somewhat based in reality. At the moment, short term would be best - maybe a few hours at a time to do a scene. But if things work out well, I'd love to have some on-going partners or some extended scenes.

c69kydz | ['e5615713-2e90-8dc9-d4c4-b11629485de7'] | I remember the first time in the US that someone was blatantly racist to me. And years later, I told my white friends about it and they were like "hey, maybe you were asking for it. I mean, when you think too much about race, then you just think people are racist to you." WHICH IS, by the way, the most stereotypically patronizing victim blaming that someone (usually of the majority group) can say. (By the way, I was 7 and a Girl Scouts Leader made reference to chink eyes and Asian know it alls when I was too shy to say "right" and "left" in giving her driving directions to my house. Yup, I must have baited that.) I am so frustrated, reading thread after thread where white Redditors think they can adequately discuss inter-Asian racism in Japan and yet unconsciously spew out racist shit against Chinese themselves. I've met dozens of white American expats that giggle about the preferential treatment they get and then get mad when you bring up white privilege. They act shocked when Japanese folks aren't tripping over themselves to be my BFF because, even though I am American too, I'm not exotically white and treated suspiciously...but then a few hours later, start arguments with other expats about how racism just "doesn't exist" in Japan because they all are fucking Japanese girls. I've been downvoted for suggesting that <PERSON> baited nationalists by grandstanding about nationalizing the islands in a thread when everyone was desperately trying to insist that Japan somehow had no role in this chaos, whatsoever. And while abroad, I DID see multiple instances of racism against Chinese students in a homestay exchange. And one of my good friends is a zainichi who is now getting her Masters in the US with me. So sorry if I'm not being "open minded" but it sure is hard being ignorant when I'm already conditioned by, you know, real life. Life as a non white guy means that life still is going to suck, relatively. Now everyone can downvote me and call me the "real" racist.

Acting like the Chinese riots just magically came out of nowhere but their own asses is completely, idiotically irresponsible. This is why people hate <PERSON> - he's like the <PERSON> of Japan that keeps getting re-elected despite being a right wing extremist who keeps putting his foot in his mouth. No one said this JUSTIFIES the riots.

dv489er | ['e562d466-ec06-898a-5f4e-b764bfdd31a6'] | We can’t be so narrow-minded and view the issue without context. We had (and still do) so many midfielders the beginning of the season, who were above the pecking order due to talent, contractual situations, seniority, transfer fees, etc. that contributed to his exit. With that in mind, it’s be selfish to keep him here with false promises of regular playing time when we know that’d be unlikely. <PERSON> is such a consistent and unique player that <PERSON> could not have deputized for him one to one that we may as well play another way (with <PERSON> at pivote for example). Also while his talent may not be up for debate, his consistency and ability to deal with pressure is. Makes it even harder to trust as a true deputy for <PERSON> *as of now* Now you ask me, could we have done better to accomodate him instead of crowding our midfield with quantity over quality? Sure. But when he returned, it was kind of spilled milk anyway and I’m sure <PERSON> was not the first thing on EV’s mind when he thought of how to steady this ship. So it is what it is and it was best for his own sake that he get regular playing time in a lower level team. Sucks for the injury though. But luckily <PERSON> has always had kind words for <PERSON> and to my memory has said he’s in his long term plans. Hopefully my response didn’t sound that “lazy” for how verbose it was. I’d like to see him back and do well here of course. | d5ap1cv | ['e562d466-ec06-898a-5f4e-b764bfdd31a6'] | I have high hopes for <PERSON> and becomes legendary for the club (if he already isn't) like <PERSON>.

The name of the ship <PERSON> was on was *The Olympic* and the name of the ship his friend was on was its sister ship *The Titanic* and it was currently sinking into the north sea. <PERSON> died on that ship while <PERSON> passed it by to get to England. | ca5u22o | ['e56d2438-f06e-a40b-efe1-b1f8d62d8682'] | I think that if you reread your comment you'll see that you are clearly presenting your "Down to earth and incredibly objective" reactions as superior to the way we "turn any situation into a Hollywood action movie." But if you stop acting like a condescending prick and start observing your "objectiveness" objectively you'll see that what you describe is not "Down to earth and incredibly objective" but rather apathetic and uncaring. Your disregard for other people's safety as they are threatened with a knife is not cool and you do NOT get to walk around thinking you're better than me because you're British and you dont give a shit about people's safety. I have no doubt that what you present is in no way a representation of the average Brit's mindset as I have interacted with dozens of English people in my life and have found them to be as compassionate and involved in the well being of others as anyone else. So, my advice is to stop passing off your own dispassion for humanity as something inherently "English." You're making the English people look bad. |

If something like bitcoin were widely adopted, where the proposition for new investors is that it will increase in value indefintely means that no one will ever spend so the economy dries up. |

Here are some actual quotes from <PERSON>: "It's been our misfortune to have the wrong religion. Why didn't we have the religion of the Japanese, who regard sacrifice for the Fatherland as the highest good? The Mohammedan religion too would have been much more compatible to us than Christianity.

I don't think you can argue that either of them were merely trying to please God badly. These quotes sound like open disbelief and/or disdain.

Neither, by the way, do the Biblical texts ever record God making some laws that condemn people to hell, and others that don't. If I'm separated from God for eternity (aka "go to hell"), it won't be because I went 70 in a 65, or lied to my mother, or raped a child. (It will be because I rejected the creator of the universe, and made myself god of my own universe.) He knows we are broken people living in a messed up world, and are liable to make choices that hurt us and those around us. He offers grace for these things, big and small (yes, even child molestation). But unless we want that grace, want to be near him, want to turn away from nasty stuff like that, we'll never find our comfort in Him, and heaven itself wouldn't make us happy. And since there are basically no unpardonable sins, people (me included) sometimes treat God as a doormat. If he'll always love me, then why does it matter how I live? Of course, this kind of thinking really quickly proves how much (or little) I actually love God back, and that is where things get sticky. As <PERSON> put it: "You can tell a tree by its fruit." You would hope that people who seek out priesthood have and maintain a healthy relationship with God, but that isn't always the case. Most do, but some are can't handle the power and chastity combination, and are too proud or scared to seek help to deal with it. |

Generally people just want to run around and shoot things, and die and respawn without any consequence. As long as a class bears any sort of burden (SL, medic, AT to a lesser extent) that has a direct responsibility towards the rest of the 79 players, people are not going to want to play it. I know it sounds super cynical, but people generally don't want to be responsible for anyone else, and the medic class is just that. I see a lot of people arguing that the mechanics of the medic are what puts people off from playing it, but it's not, it's the burden that the class bears. If you're talking pure mechanics, medic is probably one of the most overpowered classes in the game (at least for USA/RU) and better than standard rifleman in every way. GB medic definitely needs something other than ironsights, that much is true. But if you gave any factions medics anything better than red dot/collimator balance would be totally fucked. That'd be four optics riflemen per squad, two of which can revive players and heal themselves. | df1yqz9 | ['e5bf8e72-3f83-d91b-bf57-672d8c6d33f1'] | I'm really starting to believe there needs to be some sort of mandatory reading list on Weimar/NSDAP/Third Reich before these people get the okay to make comments about <PERSON>.

Although it was written as a novel, Mr. <PERSON> is on record stating that everything in the book actually occurred as it was about his last deep cover experience in South America trying to determine why and by who, his best friend <PERSON> was tortured and murdered. <PERSON> was a deep cover operative for the DEA since the 80's \(if memory serves me right\) and was the agent the movie "Deep Cover" was based on. If anyone would like to get an up close "feel" for what it is like going undercover at that level I would highly recommend "Triangle Of Death." The reason I am mentioning all of this is because <PERSON> has indicated a few times, in different ways the very real dangers involved in what the undercover agents are doing to free each and every one of us from the tyranny of the NWO. As I think about <PERSON>, DJT, and others behind the scenes \(many who have lost their lives and will never be publicly recognized for their ultimate sacrifice\) since "The Plan" was put in play; I am reminded of what it felt like as I read many of the situations Mr. <PERSON> found himself while undercover in South America. I had very strong feelings of dread and fear for him as he sat in cars and various rooms not knowing if he would live another 30 seconds. I feel in my heart that this deep cover "game" \(I use that word with all due respect\) is so far beyond anything <PERSON> was up against simply because in this current battle, we are all witnessing, there is far more at stake than just exposing the who, what and where behind the distribution of a synthetic form of cocaine.

Please know that we \(all of us\) know that you are there, your are real, you have families, feelings and heart. We pray for your well\-being and success and certainly recognize the sheer terror many of you may be feeling at this very moment for all of us.

It isn't even the extreme annoyance of trying to get bloodstains out of your favorite dress. No, the worst thing, the thing that my training never prepared me for, were the moments in life when I couldn't kill someone, but really, really wanted to. Not that I *physically* couldn't, of course. I had been trained in most major martial art forms since I was a toddler, and taking out men twice my size happened fairly regularly. I doubt anyone could survive against my skills-even if it took my entire lifetime, eventually, I could hunt anyone down, and the longer the chase, the more fun it would be for me. No, the reason I couldn't kill those that I hated was that I wasn't supposed to. That sounds a bit anti-climatic, doesn't it? An assassin that doesn't kill others, just because it's against the rules? Let me just say this- you don't want to get on the bad side of the Guild. Even I would take a tough beating if the entire team was deployed to get me, something I'd rather not experience. If I wasn't commissioned to kill (which was rare, I work about two-three missions a month, five in a good one) then I simply wasn't allowed to go murdering anyone I pleased. Assassin's aren't *that* psychopathic, we are paid employees, remember. So imagine the fury of being me, the best of the best, able to kill someone with my bare hands (which is boring, I'd much rather go with my customary dagger approach), but not permitted to murder those who most deserved it. Like that annoying neighbor who always peeked over her hedges, always so curious why my garbage bags were so full every week when I lived alone in a tiny house. Or that irritating old lady who would always somehow get stuck in front of me in the grocery line, counting all her nickels and pennies to pay in exact change (I doubted she had much longer to live anyway). Or that unnecessarily rude mailman who always just happened to throw my mail in the one puddle in my driveway. You'd want to get a little manslaughter out of your system too, right?

dk043hm | ['e5ff3cb5-6b1a-94ff-1705-b36d6885c9f2'] | Are you saying that playing over the course of years and years starts to really push your KD much closer to 1 due to law of averages? I understand that and didn't consider that. I usually never play more than a couple hundred hours of a game. But with overwatch I play pretty much solely competitive matches (because people actually group up, play the objective, pick reasonable heros etc), and my d.va is 3.5 KD and genji is almost 5.0 KD. In comp matches you are matched based off your score, so you always play w people who are within the same ballpark as you (skill-wise). So not sure if "crushing noobs" would inflate my averages too much. Edit: to be fair, KD doesn't matter to me in overwatch nearly as much as my Win/loss. I just used it as an example because the data is right in front of me. | dkp3s01 | ['e5ff3cb5-6b1a-94ff-1705-b36d6885c9f2'] | I remember when I was an edgy teenager who just got into high school, too. if you're some fucking dimwit on the internet in 2017 and actually agree "haha yeah people who want to kill themselves are failures, lol!

The amp does put out a bit more power than the sub can handle but thats perfectly fine as long as you keep the gain down. I also suggest you get a multimeter if you dont already have one because those are really useful and i personally think necessary for adjusting your amps. The extra power also gives you plently of room to upgrade in the future if you ever find a great local deal or just want more bass. The sail panels hopefully shouldnt need too much modifying and i hope you have good luck with that. Woodworking skills and tools are really helpful for that sort of stuff. For wiring, a lot of people here like KnuKonceptz wire kits and OFC copper wire is preferred. I used the cheapo Scosche 8 gauge kit from walmart which is decent quality and gets the jobs done, and is only half as much as the 8 gauge KnuKonceptz wire. I also suggest you try to do some of the installation work yourself because thats one of the most enjoyable parts for me and once you look into it youll find its not really as complicated as it seems. This seems like its about it but let me know if theres something else i can help with and feel free to PM me in the future if you need something else. | cssvtoq | ['e600bb5d-f356-f9b4-e2ae-0215cbc2a7c4'] | Its crazy because this is the exact situation im in and i was just wondering about the drain on my battery.

They are a buisness. There goal before a games release is to get as many preorders as possible. It works they get more preorders with a bonus item because the general consumer thinks “oh free stuff” and preorders it then the cycle goes on.

Lets be real and not self entitled, they are a buisness first and primarily. |

High school educations stopped being relevant and applicable to future success after the 1980s. | c8uq45z | ['e6087400-ad07-6a48-ef02-1e5e4a6651d4'] | I was unaware of the writing changes.

The acting is not terrible if you compare it to some of the major cable network garbage but as you mentioned, Breaking Bad is on a whole different level of awesome. Perhaps that could be attributed to the writing, or maybe not. But by AMC standards overall, The Walking Dead is subpar with acting. (In comparison to their other shows like Breaking Bad, Hell On Wheels, Mad Men) Again, to reiterate, none of them come close to touching the bar set by <PERSON> and company on Breaking Bad though. Did I mention Breaking Bad has excellent acting? |

We talk a lot about evidence-based policy, I think we should also start talking about evidence-based convincing. When we call people racists, or nazis, or whatever, *even when it's true*, it just causes them to hunker down further, because them admitting that they were wrong means *admitting that they were a Nazi*, which is very difficult to do. I honestly don't have an answer on evidence-based rhetoric, and how to most effectively lead people out of stupid views, but I imagine the easiest way is to give these people a way out, and not force them to implicitly admit that they were a nazi or some shit before, because that just ain't happening.

I understood from the twin paradox that the reason time is dilated for one twin and not the other (i.e one clock measures more time than the other) is that one experiences acceleration and the other doesn't. Since the massless particles aren't accelerated to light speed there can be no asymmetry and thus no time dilation (i.e from the coordinate frame of a photon the rest of the universe is moving at light speed relative to it). |

No they cannot be below 640kg or else they are disqualified. Saving weight in Formula 1 means being as light as possible and then adding ballast. The lower the weight of the car before adding ballast the more they gain from it. If you give an engineer the choice between a 60kg driver and 60kg of ballast they will take the ballast because it can be put right on the floor of the car as opposed to up in the driver position. It's the same with any part, any weight you "save" elsewhere can be made up for in ballast. As for weight distribution it is fixed but they have a small range they can play with, .2 percent I think. They use ballast to get it into that range though. |

Seems like it's missing in py3.4. >>> a, *, b = range(5) File "<stdin>", line 1 a, *, b = range(5) ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax >>> a, *_, b = range(5) >>> This works though. | cdmyb0k | ['e61c5d46-c076-3cd7-a52e-7d474dadfc16'] | Ok, now I remember. I confused it with function syntax where you can disallow/limit positional arguments, for example: >>> def foo(*, bar=123): ... pass ... >>> foo(1) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: foo() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given >>> foo(bar=1) >>> IMHO, discard-wildcard in assignment syntax could be pretty useful; improve readability and maybe give some optimization hints to interpreter.

To either ease my mind or prepare myself for something bad, I want to know if other parents have experienced this. I had my son last Thursday at 7.9oz , he had no complications at birth besides being sleepy and needing a little man handling to get him to cry. He is formula fed and eats well. At his checkup yesterday the Dr said he looked great, but wanted to see him next week as he had lost 6 ounces. She is having us feed him every 2 hours. Last night we fed him around 11, and he didn't wake up to feed, until at 2:30 I woke up and realized he had not cried for food. I fed him and he ate well. However today he has seemed totally uninterested in food. We are barely able to get him to eat 2 ounces (past couple of days he's been eating closer to 4.) He sucks the bottle very slowly and needs a lot of encouragement. We are going to continue to get him to eat frequently, and still call the doctor tomorrow.

Shoot one of the spores on your Molt when there are enemies. No specific distance, as max range is pretty far. I think it's like 50m or something if you really want to know. And from that point on you have now become the DPS of the squad and everything will have half their maximum health and you will have the most kills by the end of the mission.

Until then the ICC, under your view, is just an undemocratic means to impose policy preferences that you find favorable, under threat of imprisonment, without having to convince voters that these policies should be enacted. The right or wrongness of this particular issue is not the problem with the ICC.

And you are basically saying that the man who found the light in <PERSON> of all people couldn't see any light in an innocent child. Try to think about what you're saying here. <PERSON>, a man who redeemed <PERSON>, who himself was a man who had committed horrific atrocities throughout his life, decided to kill his innocent sleeping child nephew based on an inability to see any light in a boy who had committed no crimes to that point? And this lack of light wasn't displayed by any outward acts like say, murdering a bunch of children who he was supposed to be protecting, torturing people, killing his subordinates, killing his stepbrother, etc. No it was displayed by a vision of something that might happen in the future. What would have been in character would have been <PERSON> trying to save <PERSON>, overestimating his ability due to his experience with <PERSON>, and then being betrayed. This betrayal thus creating bitter old man <PERSON> in the current setting. But if that was the case we wouldn't have this twist where <PERSON> created <PERSON>, and it wouldn't subvert the audience expectations. Certainly, established characters acting against their established characterization is shocking and unexpected, but it's not good storytelling. When an established character does something, you expect them to act as they would as a character. If they act contrary to what you would expect, there should be a good reason ie bitter old man <PERSON> changed because his nephew destroyed his school and became evil. When they act against their previous characterization in a nonsensical way, ie a man who could see the good in a man who killed his way across the galaxy being unable to see the good in an innocent child, it takes you out of the story because it just doesn't make any sense. |
