That there isnt a clear empirical criteria or methodology for figuring out what % of all things related to economy a president is responsible for, hence all those claims are hollow. Thats not to say the president doesnt have an enormous effect, but you cant have a clear empirical breakdown, thats how I interpreted it at least


So you're saying because I cannot accurately attribute an extremely specific amount of economic growth or shrinkage to the president or his policies, nearly all claims that he's affecting the economy are hollow?

I just don't get how she became DC's little darling.

She was a popular character in Batman TAS, and DC don't quite understand what "overexposure" means.

She's been selling like fucking bonkers. She's outsold even Superman's recent runs. For a brief period everything she did outsold basically everything else DC had except for Batman.

I mean, the President has a ton to do with the economy but the problem is no one ever attempts to make an empirical argument when talking about it. Close to 100% of the claims I read about President X or Y having some effect on the economy are completely hollow.

Right. Those Tariffs he just passed on steel and solar panels have no effect on the economy. Nothing positive or negative. Just nothing at all. None. Like there was no reason to even do that.

12 has a great epic plot. Problem is what we see is a small side store staring minor players of that amazing story.

Seriously I wish the game had been about Larsa.

Your party members could maybe been Larsa, El Cid, Ashe, Balthier, Fran, and Basch, or maybe change it up a bit to get rid of Basch, put Ondore in the party instead, get rid of Gabranth and make it so that Basch is the one who killed Reks.

Game could have been much better than it was.

I didn't like 12 either.

I didn't mind the new battle system - if anything, I was happy they were transitioning away from turn-based - but everything else was just boring. No sidequests besides Hunts, very minimal plot, no uniqueness to the characters in combat, etc.


Final Fantasy has never really been a series with a great deal of side-quests.

That said, there are quite a lot of them in FF12 even discounting the hunts.

There are all of the non-optional espers. There's the hunter's club (which is the three dudes by the beach not actually a hunt / clan thing). There's the Bazaar. There's random bullshit like the cockatrice conversations (unlocks a spell, IIRC).

And I don't think the plot was minimal at all--it was just a really bad and boring plot, sure. Partly because there was too much of it and I had very little reason to care about any of the characters.

As far as character uniqueness goes, that was another problem but eventually got solved in IZJS / The Zodiac Age remake.

They have great hardware now. Before the S8 / Note8 they refused to move away from hardware nav buttons, and even worse, the back and recents were on the opposite sides compared to literally every other Android phone for the past several years.

I actually miss the hardware buttons. At least for home. I am constantly accidentally hitting the home button while scrolling through pages these days.

And I totally agree with your point about the reversal but it's a trivial seeing to flip them around.

I will say though that the S6 had pretty mediocre hardware compared to flagship competition like Nexus 5. The S8 is snazzy but I never use mine (it was provided by my job and I only use it for work). I hate how slippery it is though.

Your relationship is doomed unless you hammer out what kinds of expectations you have for kids, how many, and when, even if the answer is 0 and forever.

Keep in mind that while a lot of parents say that they're not splitting up because of the kid, that's just not really true in some cases. People will often marry each other without having discussions about children and as a result, differences in ideals on how to parent become issues.

Like, for example, two people get married, one believes in spanking and the other is extremely against it. The one day the spanking parent just picks up the kid and spanks them. This kind of shit will drive an enormous wedge between the parents and drive them apart.

Communication is key. You need to hammer this shit out now and not "when I'm done with my CS degree"

venom is an active biological attack. Doesn't have to be injected, you can have a venom spitter, for example.

Poison is something that is just poisonous but you have to actually take action to be affected by the poison. Either something strictly poisonous like bleach, or something poisonous if mishandled like cyanide or eating something like a blowfish.

You should look for stock (google branded like Pixel) or near-stock phones OnePlus 5t / OnePlus 6 or something like Razer Phone.

Nothing is wrong. Hard to describe this to the average person but by adding const it changes how the compiler works to create a more efficient program.

Sometimes the compiler will detect something is "const" automatically but depending on options used and anyone who's ever had to debug some low level shit will tell you not to trust output from a computer that you can't read. If something is const, it should be explicitly const or else you can't reasonably expect the compiler to interpret it that way.

Doesn't matter for most applications but does for kernels.
