2 or 288.
Just 2 or just 288 is wrong, since the way it's written results in having both answers be correct.

Sorta.
2 is the "more" correct, since multiplication between x(y) is "higher priority" than x*y, thusly, it means the entirety of 2(9+3) is the denominator.

http://www.purplemath.com/modules/orderops2.htm

The general consensus among math people is that "multiplication by juxtaposition" (that is, multiplying by just putting things next to each other, rather than using the "" sign) indicates that the juxtaposed values must be multiplied together before processing other operations.

Just be passive compliant all the time. Great idea. Except not.

If you don't want to be passive compliant with police, then you deserve anything that happens to you, pretty much.

This.
The resist shit gets you hurt, and it's 100% your fault.

Cop tells you get back, you get back. Simple as that. You feel the need to not listen, then you deserve everything coming to you- that's your decision. I know I wouldn't make it- OC sucks.

I have no sympathy for rioters forced to watch terrible Mischa Barton shows as well.

I have no idea who that is, or why it'd be used as a Riot Control weapon, but I don't want none of it.

Don't riot. Don't attack cops or military gate guards or security personnel. If they say get back or disperse, DO IT. Be passive compliant, and you won't get wrecked.

So like, by qualifying to use it, is it part of the training that you get sprayed with it?

Yeah.

It's a two parter for why:
1. You're supposed to know what you're putting people through when you employ it, since it's a non-lethal that has no lasting effects [latter bit is a mild lie, it bites back later because it dries up and is still in contact, so it reflashes. It doesn't do anything crazy harmful. It just hurts like hell. Reflash feels like sunburn and soap in the eyes.]
and
2. That you're capable of maintaining your own composure if exposed to blowback.

As far as I know, anyone who does security or police work will be exposed. I've gotten it because I'm Navy.

What you're asking for is someone who does YOUR specific definition of right..

uh yeah

why would I ask for someone who doesn't do that

Now, think- what makes your specific definition of right better than anyone else's?
And furthermore, what makes that different from your political wants that'd make it valid enough to be a different case enough to make it worth superceding.

holy shit dude 'what's right' in this case is like 'don't fucking do slavery even if the economy booms as a result of unpaid labor ok'

Again, you miss the point of "subjective morality". You look at this situation and go "yeah that's evil", but fail to get that there's someone on the other side of the coin, back in say 1828 and such, who sees the economic boon as more "right" than avoiding the human suffering.

What you're asking for is someone who does YOUR specific definition of right.

That's precisely why Democracy exists- because there is no universal "right". There no universal "best".

For another round, take for instance the Gay Marriage debate not too long ago.
It's not hard to find someone who believes wholeheartedly that Gay Marriage is quite the opposite of Right, they believe keeping it illegal is doing what's RIGHT. Now, you can disagree, but that doesn't make you right, because the thing is to make that claim is to make a claim that you're worthy of being considered superior, which is not only boastful but wrong in and of itself- what makes you better? What makes your "Right" more valid than theirs?

Now you can claim that you have a large amount that agree with you, but then what of the Politician- if he doesn't believe Gay Marriage is right, and that it being kept illegal is for the best, well, by the ideation that Right > Best > Wants, well, then keep that shit illegal- it's doing what's right, it's doing what's best, and wants be damned.

The reasoning for [representative] democracy is simply that, rather than be granted power to do what's right, politicians are beholden to keep their constituents happy, which means conforming to their collective wants. And because it is forcibly adapted to the people's desire, rather than something subjective is why democracy is the best form of government. (With Direct Democracy's failings being not in the overall effect- but in the fact that governing is a lot more complex than it looks)

Electing politicians who do "the right thing" instead of electing politicians who are beholden to the people's wants is how you get fucking evil. Believing that Politicians should do what's good is how you get villains. Concentrating power on a handful of people, which is inevitable when you want people only to do what's right, not what's wanted, leads to dictatorship- even tribal lead and military coup bullshit does.

Airship thinks 1 person doing what's right will cause evil

But 100 million people doing what's right is obviously immune to evil

100 million people = 100 million different definitions of right and wrong. There's a reason why democracies are universally superior to any single leader system.

The West has representative democracies/republics rather than direct democracies for a very good reason

Because Direct Democracies are overly complex despite their seeming simplicity, and if you can't get a couple hundred people to agree on shit, you certainly can't get hundreds of millions. A direct democracy would fail at the first budget crisis because there'd be too many damn ideas for any one of them to gain enough traction.

Representatives are their to streamline the stupidly complex part of running the system, not to arbitrate.

Do what's right even if it's not best for the people; do what's best for the people even if it's not what they want; do what people want only if it meets the the first two conditions

Two Word: SUBJECTIVE MORALITY.

What's right in a politicians eyes is not necessarily what's right in the people's eyes.
What's best for the people might not be what they have as best.

What they want is what they want.

The road to hell is paved with one thing: Good Intentions. Very seldom do people set out to do evil. It's in pursuit of what they believe is right and best that the greatest evils of all time have been perpetrated. What was right for Germany was to reclaim their power. What was best for the German people was conquest and the Final Solution.

To have a "right" that a Politician should try to pursue you have to have a concrete morality. And Objective Morality is not a thing that actually exists. A best goes along with the same.

Everyone is different, and following a belief that a leader should do what's right, what's best for the people above their will is precisely how freedom dies and how you get Nazis and Commies, the world's worst villains.
---

http://i.imgur.com/0GZFPf1.gif

What the people want.

Right is subjective. Any form of morality is. If you ask a goose stepping Nazi if what Hitler was doing was right, they'd say yes. Obviously to an outsider, that's a hell no. But again, morality is purely subjective. To ask that they do what's "right" is to ask them to morally arbitrate. And honestly, do you want Nazis or Commies? That's how you get Nazis and Commies.

What is best also falls into that trap. This idealistic look creates an arbitrary look at what's good for people without taking into account their considerations. Every politician by the base is going to do what they think is best unless they're basically evil and aren't out to get reelected.

What people WANT is different, it doesn't fall into those traps, it just goes with what people desire.

You absolutely need strong units if you want to mess with the other stuff.

You only need to worry about specifics if you care about T20 Arena. You can get into the T18.5 bounce with Askrs.
Note that the T18-19 bounce gives a very minor less resource than 20 (1300 Feathers difference, that's 1 5* Promo every 3, almost 4 months) . By all senses it's a waste of an opportunity cost to play T20. Between TT, T18.5 Arena, and VGs, you'll get all the feathers you can ever really need. Especially if you play wide instead of tall, much like a City should be.

It throws ~250 free orbs a month at you and hands you all the tools you need to do Infernals and Lunatics.

No, the worst part of loot boxes is paying for it.
Or even having the option to.

And while it draws similarities to Gachas/Loot Boxes, it's more closely aligned to RANDOM DROPS, which have been a staple of RPGs for a long ass time.

I don't know what Pounce exactly states, but if it's Creature FIGHTS Creature, then no it doesn't tap. It can tap the creature for the cost, but that's not part of keyword fights. Trample won't trigger on Fights since Fights is contained combat, the other player isn't involved. Unless there's other mechanics. Like Stuffy Doll, which if it takes damage, it deals damage to player.

Lifelink triggers on dealing any kind of damage, even massive overkill. An 8 smashing a 1 lifelinks 8.

Eh. You'll have to get LotM to be sure (or ask me again in a year), but I've heard that past the Schwarzchild radius, there are no paths in space-time that lead away from the black hole.

Light moves at a constant speed in all reference frames, but the escape velocity of another body refers to the speed needed to escape the body from the surface. If light always moves at the same velocity, it should move at c near the center and at the edge. This implies that space-time itself must be curved to the point of no escape. Or something.

A female co-worker was telling me that she thought the movie had a very feminist message because Po was basically punished for manspalining so much. That Admiral Pinkhair's plan to escape via the transports totally would have worked, and that it only failed because Benecio Del Toro ratted it out to the First Order, and he was only there because Finn and Rose needed him to break them out of jail, and they were only in jail because Po told them the Admiral had no plan and it was hopeless. If he would have just shut up and done what his ladyboss told him to do, all of that mess could have been prevented.
