or rather, make the grey market either whiter or blacker

Jason Berkan

@OrigamiRobot My wife did something very similar. She stopped going to the university class because she felt the prof was doing a bad job of teaching it and making her worse at calculus.

Unionhawk

Calc 3 and Diff Eq was a disaster after that, but...

Rapitor

I feel like my votes will be the definition of meaningless.... votes Turn10 studio of the year :l

Powerlord

Nope, Valve hasn't changed it since I last looked, meaning that HL1 servers are still likely uninstallable from SteamCMD.

Jason Berkan

I don't know about the US, but here the Grade 12 calculus class covers two university classes worth of material.

Powerlord

15:01

(If you really wanted to figure out what command it was, think about what I could be checking)

Origami Robot

@Unionhawk I took Calc AB and it only gave me credit for Calc 1, but AB covered the material I had in both Calc 1 and 2

FAE

@JasonBerkan Depends on if you took AP Calculus or not

Unionhawk

@OrigamiRobot Interesting.

Arperum

@badp Like they care. You'd still be able to pay more then that on the black market.

Origami Robot

Calc 1 was differentials, Calc 2 was integrals

FAE

15:02

AP courses are supposed to count as university level courses for the universities that accept them

Origami Robot

On the AP test for Calc AB, we had differentials, integrals, and a bit of diff eq

FAE

...not that any of my AP courses that I took will help me now

Powerlord

@OrigamiRobot ...I detested AP Calc

Jason Berkan

I was miserable in calc 1 at university, as it had been 10 years since my last geometry class and I could not remember any relevant geo-trig rules.

FAE

I've pretty much completely forgotten all calculus

Powerlord

15:03

@FAE Same here

FAE

I wouldn't be able to to do a differential equation if you held a gun to my head

Matt Эллен

🌀..🌀

Origami Robot

@FAE Yea, I didn't get them either. There was only 1 question on them.

badp

@Arperum It was mostly aimed at artisans who come over, repair something, get paid in cash and never actually report income on it

Origami Robot

badp

15:04

Incidentally, they're now also required to accept card payments while on the go.

Origami Robot

FAE

@OrigamiRobot I remember one thing I really loved doing was figuring out the shapes equations would make when you rotated them various ways around different axes

Recent Questions - Arqade: Why would I want to build more floors?

posted on September 04, 2014 by Cory Klein

Ultimately, tower bux and red/white chips are the valuable currency of this game. From what I can tell, these are the only free ways to get more chips: Fulfill quests Take people on the elevator Both of these get harder the more floors you have. Wouldn't it make more sense to just keep the tower really really small until I have tens of thousands of chips, and onl…

@FAE Tsk!

Oh wait, the new one can copy artifacts/enchantments.

Kevin van der Velden

Uugh, help me chat! I want to buy a shapeoko now

Origami Robot

Apparently 2UU instead of 3U is enough to justify that gigantic power increase.

Matt Эллен

@FAE Yep

@OrigamiRobot yeah

Powerlord

15:07

Have they redone Vesuvan Doppleganger yet?

(which can switch what it's copying during controller's upkeep)

murgatroid99

@OrigamiRobot It's not that gigantic. It's still only as powerful as whatever is already on the field

badp

dum de dum

murgatroid99

@OrigamiRobot And it is a mythic

Origami Robot

@murgatroid99 The ability to choose any non-land is gigantic

I ask because Vesuvan Doppleganger was only 1 blue more than Clone

Matt Эллен

ah

Origami Robot

@murgatroid99 Vindicate is a sorcery and destroys.

I think only costing 1 more is a steal.

murgatroid99

@OrigamiRobot Ah, you're right. Of course, the reason it's really good is because it also kills lands

Origami Robot

@murgatroid99 Yea, that's the downside.

murgatroid99

Still, choosing non-creature stuff isn't that much better than only choosing creatures

Origami Robot

15:13

But no one likes LD so i'm fine there

@murgatroid99 It's infinitely better in EDH

murgatroid99

@OrigamiRobot that's not exactly what they build power levels around

@OrigamiRobot And how so? Commanders are creatures

@KevinvanderVelden Incidentally, looks like they're aphids. :( I'm gonna try to pick up and empty spray bottle thingie at Blokker or something tomorrow so I can put some soapy water in that to use.

Did you explain that tickets can be linked because things that require new tickets can in fact be related to preexisting ones?

Frank

@TimStone No, it's basically, "The original ticket's issue has been solved. If your problem isn't, then it doesn't matter if it's related or not; more investigation work needs to be done, and without a ticket, I am extremely capable of forgetting to even investigate it."

Tim Stone

Oh, so it wasn't even a request for an open (or otherwise unaddressed) ticket? How silly.
