what i was saying is that berserkers are just off . they deal good dps but they are highly unreliable sources of dps but at the same time , they can ' t be tanks like warriors . warriors are nowhere near as bad as berserkers because they are allowed to tank and deal some dps but can ' t tank as well as a lancer . but berserkers have unreliable damage , no mobility , and can ' t even tank at all . because they weren ' t designed for that , but their class design in general is bad too . they ' re like melee range nuke turrets . and yeah , there are skilled warriors . but good warriors are really hard to come by . and why is that ? because it ' s extremely difficult . if something is a lot more difficult but gives out the same product as the something that is not too difficult , it means that it ' s really inefficient . you learn that in economy . the opportunity cost in playing warrior and having the learning curve isn ' t as high as getting the same result as a lancer doing his job easily . does that mean the class is underpowered ? yes , that means they are underpowered . does that mean that they ' re not fun ? no , it does mean their fun . to some people . and those some people do like the challenge and those some people can make the warrior tank work just as well as a lancer tank . archers do have the highest single target damage . if they didn ' t , then there would be no point in playing an archer because they already have really poor aoe damage . and alot of archer ' s skills are chargeups and take away from their dps . it ' s like this in mobas , skills are really ineffective for the dps carries because they take time to cast but it ' s better to just right click away . yes , they ' re good pvp and soloing bams , but everything else , they ' re terrible . they ' re bad at leveling up . they ' re mediocre at best for instances . they are out classed as a ranged dps by the sorceror . the sorceror is a ranged nuker and deals a ton more damage than the archer . that ' s a design flaw . burst classes should be dealing a lot of burst damage , but sustained damage classes are always supposed to out - do burst classes in damage in the long run , not the short run . but they don ' t , and that ' s a design flaw . but archers do have the strongest single target damage . if not them , then who ?

i like you . you posted ken robinson . : ) what if we created an exam that specifically measured creativity ? sure it would be a great way to evaluate someone ' s worth , but in since you said that exams themselves prevent creativity this would be a paradox . if we created an exam that measures creativity would that prove that exams are a good method of evaluation ? is fear of failure a bad thing ? ( . . . it would have been nice if the people that made space shuttle challenger had more of that quality . . . ) exams suck . they are unfair . they don ' t describe the full extent of material that students may be attempting to prove that they know , but we need this arbitrary piece of paper to show something . as far as my opinions on liberal arts majors i think that we have reached an evidence of absence type argument that i can ' t logically prove . would you like me to make a video of me hugging a history student or something ? hahaha

i remember the movie , too . my ex - wife introduced me to it in college . i don ' t think i can really watch the show anymore , since it was one of those things we watched when we were figuring out we wanted to date . seeing as i ' m currently engaged to someone i ' ve been seeing for four years , i ' m not too keen on something that unfailingly reminds me of my ex . it ' s a shame . it was a damn fun show .

i ' m going to suspend my disbelief for a second ( since you cannot provide proof ) and just ask a question . i was watching a documentary the other night about mark drier , the ny attorney convicted of fraud for stealing upwards of 200 million . one of the first lines of the movie was , " it ' s easy to say you ' ll never cross that line . but few people are ever presented with the line . " later in the movie drier says , " i ' d like to think people don ' t commit these crimes because of virtue . but in reality , most people are either scared of getting caught or they lack the opportunity . " considering those lines in light of your work , have you ever thought about stealing ? would you ever steal ? you are being clearly presented with the line , a line in which drier claims that not many are presented with . if you wouldn ' t steal , is it because you are truly virtuous or is it because you fear getting caught ?

isn ' t that exactly her point ? ( to quote : " i ' m not as good in real life & lt ; 3 " ) thing is optimism makes people less risk averse . the idea is to get people to believe real life can work just like in game . this is currently not a widely held belief , and that ' s why she made the talk . to be fair , she never said people will have no chance of failing , but that even when people fail , they ' ll re - try . i can agree with that .

can you put your view into a video , with reasons and specific issues as to why ? i ' d really like to show my republican ( but not ron paul supporters ) friends and family that many ron paul supporters are not republicans that will simply fall behind romney come the general election . when i tell them that most ron paul supporters will refuse to support romney , they still assume that all ron paul supporters are republicans and so reply with something along the lines of , " we ' ll see . i think once they ' re in the booth and the choice is more radicalism from obama or romney ( who admittedly isn ' t great , but is better than obama ) , they ' ll make the right choice .

all of my argument was stated in my original post , but i will clarify for you . he didn ' t just play with them in the game world , he talked and worked with them on teamspeak . this kind of breaks the whole " its just a game / this is part of the game " argument , because this sort of thing is usually reserved for acquaintances and friends . not being sure if you can trust someone who is on your teamspeak channel isn ' t a normal scenario . here you are talking to live actual people . this is a complete disconnect from the game world ( unless you ' re role playing your character in real life which would mean something else is probably screwy with you other than your lack of morals ) . the fact that he plotted with other people he knows , all the while still talking to those guys on teamspeak , knowing their every move as well as hiding his intentions and not feeling a small amount of remorse ? that ' s some piss poor human behavior .

ok , i ' ll make a different argument then . having a single person in charge of diagnosis and treatment is broken . for virtually all other problems we strive for redundancy , since panels of experts are proven to make more accurate decisions ( in the " wisdom of crowds " sense ) . as a computer programmer , the notion of having a single unreliable point of failure in the diagnosis chain feels comically old - fashioned . if i were designing a health - care system , knowing what we know today , there ' s no way i ' d have a single doctor as the sole source of diagnosis . everyone would get their chart reviewed by a second doctor , a pharmacist and likely a specialist . there are easy ways to make such a system self - reinforcing , incenting the correct behaviors , without incurring additional overall cost . ( after all , better and earlier diagnoses are well - documented as resulting in less expensive treatments . so the insurance companies would win . ) the basic argument i was making so incoherently before is that gps are expected to be able to diagnose everything . that ' s a flawed system . no one person is going to be mistake - free , so let ' s take the burden away .

as evil a solution for the problem as eugenics is , they are not completely wrong in their identification of the problem . the fact is children who suffer abuse are more likely to grow up to be abusers , and alcoholism runs in families , i could go on but the point has been made . unfortunately forced sterilization is not the answer , its obviously immoral , and is based on statistical likelihood not certainties . alcoholic parents do not an alcoholic make . before i get downvoted into oblivion my only point is that the eugenic movement hit upon a troubling truth in society today not that the movement had merit or was in anyway a god idea .

first , let me explain y2 : from the wiki link i gave above , you know that y2 = s ^ 2 y ( s ) - s y ( 0 ) - y ' ( 0 ) and that y1 = s y ( s ) - y ( 0 ) . so , consider what was written : y2 = s y1 - 5 , well , y2 = s ( s y ( s ) - y ( 0 ) ) - 5 = s ^ 2 y ( s ) - s y ( 0 ) - 5 ( where the 5 is y ' ( 0 ) ) . indeed , they are the same . and setting x1 = 0 is definitely not the way to go . edit : also , x1 should be of the variable s , not of t - i am , of course , assuming that x1 is the laplace transform of x ' ( t ) . - edit : added the ' in x ' ( t )

because an infographic from a conspiracy website counts as a citation ? i ' ve spotted some obvious errors just from the small number of media figures that i am familiar with , such as listing rupert murdoch and roger ailes as jewish . more importantly , jews are overrepresented in the media industry does not equal " the jews control the media . " jews hold all manner of political views and there is no " conspiracy " whereby " they " are working in concert to " control your mind " ( as your citation claims ) . as in any industry in the us , people are hired mostly on the basis of qualifications and merit . these are regular people doing their jobs not some conspiratorial ' other ' . as i allude to in a comment above , " the jews control x " is an antisemitic trope and it has proved persistant as a ready made template for the lazy and ignorant to grab onto in a search for scapegoats .

this actually happens to the best of us . last year i was starting to feel very dissatisfied with life and it led me to make an awful decision ( taking a job i was not interested in simply for higher salary ) . it was the worst decision i ever made . i should have faced the issues head on . i can tell you from personal experience that my mood improved immensely after i lost 30 pounds . i do not have problems getting motivated any more . i do not feel tired or sedentary any more , and look forward to getting up in the morning to start my exercise . it was hard at first , because my joints hurt from the weight gain and i could not exercise like i used to , but i found something i liked ( tennis ) and the weight just melted off . you will probably not lose weight by doing something you do not like , like fad diets where you always feel hungry and give up right away . go abroad . good or bad , you will not regret it when you are older . trust me .

are you insane ? the retail copy is not more desirable . i ' d rather pick up a pirated version that lets me play offline . also , obtrusive drm root kits don ' t make piracy impossible either , and ( by your logic , not mine though ) makes the retail copy much more desirable . are you retarded ? it is physically impossible to play d3 offline . you can go play on a private server . that is the current piracy solution . that ' s what i was responding to , your bullshit claiming that an offline single play would be impossible to do . i pointed out that it was possible , and they merely choose to make it not possible . at least try to remember what we were discussing earlier before inventing apologetic arguments . it ' s physically impossible for the end - user to run d3 offline is what i was saying . designing single player to not work offline is locking me out of a functionality . they designed that on purpose with the intent to curb piracy . need i recite my mayberry quote again ? or are you just going to ignore it a second time ? please figure out what drm is before acting like a blizzard apologist . they are not locking you out of any functionality you paid for , therefore it ' s not drm . i don ' t think you understand this . edit : i noticed that i am repeating myself , so i ' ll make it more clear . you paid for a program that connects to blizzard ' s online service . this service serves you a game . you do not physically have a licence to the code that actually does things , like spawn monsters , deal damage , drop items , etc . therefore they are in no way limiting the functionality of the program you paid for by requiring that you log on to play the game . you would have liked them to produce a single - player mode . however , they produced a client for you to connect to a server instead . this is not drm , because they are not limiting what you paid for . this is anti - piracy . drm is relative to the end product . honestly , i ' m done with this discussion because you are not aware that the d3 program is a game client , it ' s really annoying discussing this with someone who clearly has no idea what they paid for , and just complains like a child . edit2 ( missed this ) : you tried to defend a point by saying it ' s an online - only game ( or more specifically , asserting i didn ' t understand it was online - only ) . nobody ( certainly not me ) ever contested it was an online - game . you tried to use a fact ( which nobody was debating ) as a distraction from the real issue , whether their choice to make it online is a bad decision . i never used the fact that it was online to defend a point . this is what i stated : if you read my post , you would see that i agree that d3 should not be online - only . however , since the game was designed to be online - only , then it is an online game , no matter how you look at it . the definition of designed i was trying to convey was engineered . this was to support my point that this isn ' t a case of the anti - piracy justifying drm . rather , i assumed that you would understand that drm is a limitation of use of a product you purchased . therefore , if you understood the client - server pattern , and understood that d3 is engineered to be a client for an online service , you would understand that this isn ' t drm . the original post specifically addressed that d3 ' s online functionality is not drm . that is what i have been discussing . everything outside of that was brought up by you . anything else that i have talked about i have purely labeled as my opinion . you don ' t have to value my opinion , so don ' t if you don ' t wish to . however , the facts that i am presenting are wasted words it seems , as your mind is veiled by rage and ignorance . edit3 : people who think they ' re being smart with pointing out double standards between d3 and ac need to realise the difference between the two game ' s online functions . d3 ' s online function is for the purpose of auction house integrity , real community features , and achievement integrity . these are features that many would deem to be necessary and are absolutely a selling point of the game . the fact that online play is a form of anti - piracy is simply a perk for the producing company . ac ' s online " function " is primarily a form of drm . the achievement system is lazily tacked on ( it is not integrated into the game ) and is clearly an afterthought , not a feature . so please , stop complaining about the " double standards . " there are people who are unhappy about d3 being online - only . it ' s fine to be unhappy with that . however , it ' s not fine to paint an apple like an orange and then compare the two .

it does sound better . imagine having a light bulb with half the power into it , you would only have the room half lit . with the light bulb being powered right you can see the whole room . it ' s almost the same with the headphone , you are only hearing half or a quarter potential of what it sounds like at low volume or even medium volume . you just hear a lot more . the quality of the amps will give you different bass quality and also different tones of sound . the higher the ohm ' s the higher powered amp you would need . for the 80 ohms and also having portability i would say get the best one for the price which is the cmoy amp from jds labs or from ebay . ( jds labs sells them with an ease of mind and they have a better opamp than most of the ones on ebay for lower prices ) http : / / www . jdslabs . com / item . php ? fetchitem = cmoybb203 the fiio e7 would also be a good choice , it goes for around 80 ~ $ on ebay shipped from hong kong . if you buy the more expensive headphone portable amp c421 on jds labs , the difference is the quality of the bass and also has less interference and less random buzzing noises and such that some people experience . for some the noises are really noticeable and for most people it ' s not that noticeable . http : / / www . jdslabs . com / item . php ? fetchitem = c421

hey , thanks for the compliment ! the log cabin one is one of my favorites because its my first . three of us decided to learn together ( we set up a sweat shop in a car garage lol ) and we each ended up with very different quilts even though we all did the same idea of the log cabin - - it was neat to see how the different colours and personalities created such differences . i like the quilts you ' ve made ! don ' t be hard on yourself ! glad you understood what i meant about the square short cut . i felt half crazy trying to describe it . i like the pattern you ' ve picked , and i think that it could look extremely different with different colour options . i ' m glad you said it was the floor because i was thinking the fabric made it look kind of marble - y ! i think you ' ll have no problem with it as you ' ve got a sewing background , i just wish i could advise on the circles , applique may be the easiest , i ' m not sure . good luck , and keep us posted . there ' s not that many posts in this subreddit , i ' d love to see more . but . . . maybe that ' s the nature of having such a slow moving hobby ? also , ic ould talk modern quilting for ever ! haha .

this would probably be a more reasonable in dota or hon since most lol players arent used to micro ' ing multiple units compared to dota where multi unit use is more used . i think it would be more balanced if you lose control of the merchant ( have him sit there doing nothing ) and then u gain the control of the targeted champion for the duration and maybe have a reduced movespeed or something kind of debuff .

in the genetic market , men are not that value . this is an unfortunate truth and a lot of this can be explained in game theory . the future of the species is harmed more from losing 10 women rather than 10 men . but in today ' s age , we don ' t worry about being mauled or starving . those instincts don ' t serve us much in this environment . we all have plenty of time and resources to reproduce . and some of us simply do not want to reproduce .

further advancement allows for further character customization and more options . how interesting would any fps game if you started level one with end game gear ? what about any rpg , should all your skill trees be filled up immediately ? no . you need to work your way there . on a side note , i like how prototype does it . you start with all your powers and everything after the first mission is further back in time as you slowly gain all those powers you previewed in the first stage .

ok , in that case , let her do what she needs to do . that all does sound pretty nice . i could use a vacation myself . pack snacks and juice or something for the drive , it ' s a nice little thoughtful gesture . before you go , make sure you know the options as far as other activities in the area , and let her have a say in what you guys do , since she ' s the one who has been pushing for this . know what you want to do too , though ; don ' t just be a " whatever you want , dear " - type pushover . have fun together . she ' s really going to appreciate you for this . smile and look forward to it . you ' ll feel better when the time comes if you ' ve already been feeling warm inside from knowing how happy she ' s going to be . that should put you a little more at ease , assuming that ' s even an issue right now . you feel like this is all pretty dramatic , but that ' s good . just go with it . clearly , this is you - you ' re taking the initiative on this , you ' re setting everything up , and even looking for outside ideas to make it just perfect . one thing i would recommend , perhaps . . . and maybe i ' m overdoing it a bit on the dramatic surprise things . . . but i ' ve found this kind of thing super effective in the past : find an excuse to go to the front desk for 10 or 15 minutes . make sure she ' s got her phone on her , but don ' t ask her obviously ; just know whether she does . right after you walk out of the hotel room , send her a text saying she will find something in such - and - such pocket of her suitcase or specific area in her purse . she ' ll find the hand - written note you ' ve written her , detailing how lucky you are to have her , how much she deserves this trip , and how it ' s all about her . tell her how great it feels to be with her , and how important the fact that your love is growing stronger is to you . tell her when you come back into the room you are going to kiss her . make sure she has enough time to read it , and a few extra minutes to reflect on it and anticipate your return . she ' ll probably look in the mirror and make sure her hair , etc . , is perfect , as she gets more excited . . . . i ' d actually ( and this is just my style , not for everyone ) say instead of " look in x pocket of purse / suitcase and you ' ll find something " . . . " hey can you check x pocket of my suitcase to see if i remembered my razor ? " and have the only thing in that pocket be the envelope with her name on it . you wouldn ' t see the look on her face because you ' d be out of the room , but you can imagine it . i ' d also walk in , and for the kiss she knows is coming , put my hands on her waist and move close to her , looking her in the eyes , and walk her slowly backwards towards the bed , not kissing her yet . . . let her lay down , then kiss her . no sex or anything yet , you guys probably will have things to do upon arriving . just your best kissing , a taste of what ' s to come perhaps . if you want it to be romantic , she will easily pick up on it and feel it too . then the next day ( at least , this is how i imagine it ) do your thing with set - up while she sets up the picnic . these are just some ideas , you don ' t have to word - for - word them , but if you want to add some spice , love , or passion , you could see how they sit with you and maybe give some of it a shot . be confident , of course . you can be confident because you ' ll already have seen to her needs , as far as her having enough outfits , having a schedule beforehand if that ' s something she ' s picky about , etc . beyond taking care of what she wants to get out of the trip in terms of her personal preferences , it ' s up to you what touches you add . hot tub surprise night will be fantastic of course , but why not add a few little touches she hasn ' t seen from you before ? ; ) experiment with them , life ' s an adventure - your adventure !

i have biked in the canadian rockies several times in june , july , august . never this early . only once from lake louise to vancouver ( which was the year the kettle valley railway was closed due to fires ) . one year , i got snowed on in june in lake louise , while it was dry in banff . lake louise is about 1600 m in altitude . rogers pass is somewhere over 1300 m . basically , i would be prepared for snow , but also not be surprised if i didn ' t get any . in paragraph 3 , were you describing this in order ? if so , you really need to check a map or else you are planning to do a lot of backtracking . my favorite route through this area was revelstoke , glacier np , golden , lake louise , banff , calgary . ( and the reverse ) to get there : princeton , keremous , pentiction , kelowna , sicamous , revelstoke . the icefields highway starts at lake louise and goes north to jasper . from lake louise , take the tc1 south to calgary . hope this helps a little .

i agree with everything he said . however , posting 0 point / 1 star reviews to metacritic or amazon because serves were offline on the hour of the launch day ( pardon - launch night ) . . . it ' s childish , immature and leaves the impression that you are self entitled prick . especially , when those same people will later on rock up 100 + hours on that game and will still justify their 1 star review even though their " entertainment investment of 70 $ " payed off . ( for anyone wondering i am talking about all the flak diablo is getting publicly ) video game industry is entertainment industry . its like going to your favorite band concert . you enjoyed the genre , you have it on your mp3 player , but you leave negative review against the band because the line was too long when you went to the concert . just my 2 cent edit : to make it clear as someone doesn ' t get it . i agree with totalbiscuit . i agree that drm is bad . . . i agree that gamers should have opinion and should not let be ripped off by big publishers . i don ' t agree though with passive aggressive behavior against the game title that probably has done everything possible to make it smooth . as said it ' s like booing your favorite band because of the long line on their premiere debut album . . . which was btw cleared away after 2 hours . [ / r / gaming ] ( / r / gaming ) has really short memory or user base is getting dumber . which popular title launch went without mistakes ? does anyoen remeber when steam had diffculties with their online servers on the day of launch ? issues with game keys fro exaple ! how many games had unplayable bugs ? i love company of heroes fro example . . . but never in my right mind have i bashed the game or posted a negative review just because in early days of launch serves were regularly down for maintenance . also , if you took the day off at work in order to play dibalo on may 15th . take teh repsonisbily and say - " fuck it i should have been smarter " . posting reviews acting as if blizzard literally killed your family and raped your sister makes you look like a retard .

you ' re ok . i ' ve been on depo since 2005 . the first two or three shots are kinda weird , but you ' ll get adjusted . the black stuff is just old blood - it can take a few months for your body to totally shed the old lining . it ' s totally normal to get spotting at random until your body gets used to the shot . i ' ve known a few people had near non - stop " periods " with black blood for weeks at a time . i only had it for a few days at a time for my first two shots . after the third , everything leveled off and i haven ' t had one since ( unless i ' m a day late for my shot , but the shot stops it nearly immediately ) . anyway . all that is pretty typical . but . let me tell you this now - getting on depo was the worst thing i have ever done , and at this point it ' s difficult to find something else to switch off to . i ' ve gained 100 pounds . around 25 the first year , and 15ish each year after . dieting does . not . work . sex drive is non - existent . i ' ve got hormone issues now , and a few other problems that have arisen due to that . a study came out a month or two ago showing your risk of breast cancer doubles on depo . it ' s known to cause thyroid problems . it ' s known to cause fat to accumulate around your midsection . the doctor won ' t tell much of this up front , but once the weird symptoms start , you ' ll find all the information on your own .

it is near - impossible to distinguish good opinions from bad opinions if people insult their opponents rather than their ideas . no it isn ' t . ad hominem don ' t add to an argument but they don ' t magically make the rest of the argument somehow vanish . figure that out and your ability to communicate will increase tenfold . you are still attempting to mar the validity of my opinions by insulting me rather than my ideas . i ' m sorry you ' re bothered that i ' m not insulting your ideas . they ' re perfectly insipid , i can assure you . better ? you obviously don ' t care about sorting good opinions from bad ones , is that what we were supposed to be doing ? you just care about winning the argument . that ' s not a thing that happens . and i ' m still waiting for you to tell me by what authority you are empowered to dictate my value system .

i live in heavily catholic community , and the ' defending marriage ' ( read : banning marriage ) thing has become basically the defining issue ( along with banning abortion ) . the church here used to care about things like social justice , aid to the poor , interfaith dialogue , and the environment . now the campus ministry at the local college is being taken over by a right - wing group , the local churches are pumping money into campaigns to ban gay marriage , the nuns are under attack from the vatican , and ppx is being let back into the church . brought up in a more or less religion - free household in a catholic community , i always had a degree of respect for the church even if i abstained from it . that respect is dying every day .
