    Seriously fucking tilted still. This was like the one fun thing I had planned for months. Clearly I need to start drinking, it'd be more productive.

    Bunch of nonbasics and playing all your best cards seemed line a fine strategy in the sealed. I did not open nonbasics in playable proportions so I was stuck playing solid fair decks and then just totally mulling/flooding/screwing game after game 2 events in a row.

    I'm surprised they're not offering a free game with the 970 or 980.

    Might as well just give them to me. I'll hold onto them until the market improves.

    My real point is that us white people like to pretend that our school washardand that we deserve success because of all the hard work we did in school. And it's all a complete fucking joke.

    I'm not saying there are notniceschools. I'm saying that there are not ANY schools that are flunking out 2/3rds of their students. Even if you're flunking 20% of your students, is that really a HIGH standard? Even Ivy League colleges rarely fail out anyone who actually shows up to classes...

    Literally anyone can get into college. My school takes lots of upper-middle class Long Island/NY kids who graduated from nice private schools who weren't smart enough to handle the academic rigors of a real college.

    Exactly my point. It's not like these white high schools are flunking kids out who don't meet their high standards of academic excellence. So how can they really be 'high?'

    "hold them to the high standards of academic rigor to which their more wealthy, and generally more white peers, are held." I really just wanted to laugh at this quote, because it really does make me laugh. Pretending that 'white peepul skool iz hard' is a fucking joke.

    That's my point. We DO need to raise standards in order to raise the quality of education. And the first step to doing that is admitting that the standards we have now, even in wealthier white communities, are abysmally low.

    No, I definitely do agree that low income urban schools have low standards. I just think that other schools have standards only slightly less low. A handful of the student body might opt to take a handful of challenging courses in secondary school. The vast majority of classes taken by the...

    Define high? It's still a curriculum designed for 80% or more of the class to pass. How can that possibly be high? Maybe you just don't understand psychometrics, but let me explain: the vast majority of people are not very smart, in fact, they occupy a small range of intelligence on each...

    But that's not what it says. It says "high standards of academic rigor." That's fucking bullshit. It's not low vs high. It's low vs slightly less low.

    I've currently got a single 670GTX that I got cheap with some absurd combo with my Seasonic X650 Gold PSU. (Something like 80 dollars off + a 40 dollar gift card, go Newegg.) I think I can wait for the 20nm GPUs.

    Apparently there is actually a beta for the web app that lets you upload and edit your old saves. BTW 9I47I9-ZOM38L-ZGV9KW is the gmg voucher, it doesn't copy it for you, and it doesn't tell you whether those are 1s or Ls or Is or whatever.

    I actually don't have a smartphone, I have to rely on memorizing price lists, but almost everyone I trade with does. That said, if both sides KNOW the value of the cards and still accept the trade, that's not ripping people off. That's people paying you for the convenience of getting their...

    Most people trade at retail value. How traders make their money is by trading things with a large spread between retail and buylist prices into things with a low spread between retail and buylist prices. Like trading 4 10 dollar cards that buylist for 5 into a 40 dollar card that buylists for...
