when we watch the parlimentary games played in europe to deny any outsiders it's clear euro's have no real choice either, you delude yourself

you know you can just vote for whomever you want whenever you want right? literally nothing is stopping you now

I thought one of the reasons nvidia wants to go dlss is they can gut the video cards of their horsepower and sell a cheaper ersatz because it's not trying to calculate more and more triangles anymore.

women can be losers now too it's funny

I like this guys series, he edits well, picks good music, tickles my intellectual side by being edutainment a good amount of the time fitting it in a grand narrative story. there's a lot more video's this guy has but his two best series are the assasination of caesar and the congress of...

The voice for this reading of caesars commentaries is just magnificant, i must have listened to this read through at least 10 times. Very good audio book listen.

Watch this one, it's a lot better than the ridley scott one and has an insane amount of people and horses reanacting the battles like, 15k+ extra's.

yeah there's some of it in here. they figured out where indo european language came from that was the basis of sankrit based on some of the words that were in the language and narrowed it down.

I've watched like 5 different video series of napoleons campaigns, I like this one the most, well narrated and animated, well peppered with qoutes and drawings or paintings, solid history channel esque music that really sucks you in and adds dramatic tension, very good sound design. Also the...

I've watched all of these, 51 part animated battle map based on sharing the best excerpts from the best of multiple really detailed books of the 1942 eastern front campaign and a very good accounting of early british success with operation compass wich views as a wild ride in the desert. 51...

I like how siddartha was from the Kshatriya caste which means he most likely was a white man because the great arayan migration that settled in india had them setting themselves up as the Kshatriya warrior caste.

i like this 22 part series on the history of western europe from rome onwards to 1400's because it's drops one obscure origin, word, phrase or tradition after another in this series. A nice non standard walkthrough of western civ with entymology and origin of customs as a throughline this...

This would make a pretty baller movie imo, it's like a mix of thermopalye/300 and dunkirk.

I watched the running man remake, the 2 partners of the main char felt superflous, there was no backstory with them like the original so there's no reason to care why they're killed off, which they were immediatly. The plot devices are meh, The metaphors are kinda in your face and pacing is like...

I'm not sucking neocon dick, you're mentally retarded, I pity you

@Lightning Lord Rule the local petty tyrant got mad his fake intuition is questioned

yeah but then you get anabaptists and weird cults, it's a tradeoff, there is no perfect solution. Sometimes religious leaders would try to stop people from being fanatics

It just came out that merkel lied to german public about russia lowering gas flow in nord stream 1 to pressure germany to finish nord stream 2, they'd do all that then blow it up? makes 0 sense...

socialism is inherently authoritarian so there is no soft fluffy pillow kind like the one you imagine in your head, the "dictatorship of the proletariat" is literal.

seems relevant

well I mean it's not really the pre internet era anymore and everythings spoiled now but generally what you describe here seemed to happen when you draft the set and you see cool stuff and go "what's that?" that's not lost at all with what I was describing. what I was talking about is after...

I saw someone with a breakdown a week ago claiming that the player base is basically 1/3rd of people who started in last 2 years, 1/3rd of people who started more than 5 years ago and 1/3rd that are 10 year plus. I think the avg player can go back like nearly 10 years in their head of cards.

it's definitely cost something, people used to have like every card memorized by the art, that's not really possible anymore, kinda makes you lose connection to the game a bit. it's subtle but I think it's a real thing.

that dark ritual is hot, the rest is meh you're misunderstanding me, they've spent like over 2 decades building up tournament magic and suddenly commander is more popular which is a format that was fan made. you're thinking I meant from the moment of inception, no.

they had no idea what they wanted then, it took several years for them to figure out what they wanted to do, by 1996 drafting was part of pro magic.

well they signaled this isn't going to happen, now what? this it's why it's funny and naive watching you go through is, everyone else said exactly what you're saying over last 2 years, you're just catching up

No I said they already do this so you aren't proposing a solution to anything, not to hasbro at least, they put commander stuff in standard AND all the other products even the non commander product, literally every product is a commnader vehicle. look at the shear volume of stuff they put out...

it's not for sale for another hour and 15

this setup doesn't invalidate what came before like commander products do, legacy is kinda turned into a wild west of nonsense that rotates constantly because of all the cards that get dumped into it from non standard products, mh2 turned off a lot of people because it was doing what you suggested.

it's a terrible idea either way because it would a bunch of stuff into draft and constructed that's useless, they don't bother to test commander products and if they wanted to put it into standard products it would tank the core product they've had this entire time.

"they should do X instead of Y" "they've done X for years and it doesn't stop them from doing Y" "that's what I said"...................

they already put things that people say "this is for commander" in every standard set, on top of everything else. For years now.

it's funny how naive this is

When did that happen? it was up last month. https://web.archive.org/web/20221006203732/https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/official-reprint-policy-2010-03-10

disinterested low value customer who doesn't spend much and only online might not be the person to ask about in store play which is what I care about mostly. playing on the computer is soul less you don't make any friends and it doesn't build the inertia in store play does.
