I hope Ukraine won't just sell technologies, cause there are talks about USA trying to get that for 100b. Not a small number, but I doubt USA would appraise their junk fairly, while these tech could be one of the biggest source of income in the long run.

Yeah, and I think it's not about history, it's about mortgage initial payment, which is some% of target property cost.

And the idea that it's bad thing is just stupid. Anyone read about previous housing bubble remembers how people took multiple mortgages because you could let your house for more than you pay for mortgage per month, and as crisis hit, they couldn't repay. It was very much enabled by zero mortgage initial payments.

Try attacking ultra high cost military property in any part of the world and tell me how you did.

What's the public mood? It's a big country and everyone is affected differently. Those who joined army in '22 are drained because there is no end date to their service. Those who found themselves a job that has protection from mobilisation can live more or less normal live, except for sleepless nights due to shahed bombings. Those who are falling into mobilisation group are highly nervous and generally try to avoid going out of home unless needed.

Exhaustion is high, but what's an alternative? I don't see the will to accept surrender. And it's not like trump's direct negotiations lead to anything, the idiot don't understand shit about fuck. He thought russia is talking about territory exchange, but they demand unilateral withdrawal. He thought russia wants direct negotiations president-to-president, but it's not on a table - they suggested to continue Istanbul's talks, where russia offers capitulation, and the level of their delegation is laughable - you can't discuss shit with them because they literally are nobody and have no right to discuss serious subjects.

Love emacs, and have lots of ease-of-life functions and keybinds in it. But the UX of the base editor feels so dated. Like how pointer moves with scroll, how scrolling isn't smooth etc etc

Honestly, we should just blow the companies that do this.

Removing the web won't fix shit, haven't you learn from cyberpunk, next web is gonna be corpo run and privacy world be worse than ever.

That mostly depends on what other players do to counter you.

Kardur games go fast and you can expect them to end in ~7-9 turns. You even win some of them. Games where you lose are also speed up by a lot.

Jirina / Danitha, even if you can kill a single opponent fast you have to deal with 3. Most likely board wipe would happen, so add several turns per wipe for recovery, assuming you haven't run out of steam. But even with 1 wipe, that could go over 10 turns easy.

Best thing here is that you can remove the most problematic players first. It's often not the players with early creatures btw, but those who just silently ramp or set up otherwise.

I'm at bracket 2-3, I'd say if you can kill a single player at turn5 with a great starting hand and luck, that's fast.

But it all depends on what your deck do, my most aggressive deck is doing damage to everyone (me too) each turn, stacking symmetric burn effects. It doesn't kill at early turns but it lowers everyone's HP low enough not to feel safe, denying them setup time and force to act, just to goad their whole board with my Kardur, and when only one opponent remains, do some fast finish, like Mob Rule.

Again, you might go slower if you have something nice to protect you from the most likely negative scenario. Say, Danitha theoretically could kill t4, but practically that's gonna happen way slower with an average luck, BUT lifelink vigilance is gonna keep your hitpoints high enough to have time - just get enough protective gear so you don't lose her too often.

You can see all the decks mentioned here.

 

Made a fun thought experiment and sorted all my EDH decks by archetype so it's easier to chose a small subset to take on FNM without ending up stuck with the same archetype.
