Villan is a wealthy player, very loose and aggressive. Villian straddles for $10. One person in middle position limps in. I make it $40 with AhAc from SB. Villan calls, the limper folds.

Effective stack is about $600.

Flop comes 2d6d8h. I bet $60, villan calls. Turn is 5c. Because I know villan is very agressive and likes to bluff, and the board is very good for his range and not so good for mine, I elect to check, with the intent to check call turn and most rivers. Villan bets $110, I call. River is 9d. Bad card since diamond flush gets there and some straights and two pairs. I check and villan goes all in for about $390 into a $430 or so pot. Is this a clear fold? I tank for

How does one refine rank L gear beyond 5? Do rank L refining stones exist somewhere? How do I obtain them? Any other tricks? I've thought about using lvl 70 rank L gear as refinement material but seems like an extremely expensive method.

In the recent interview with Sam Harris on the Recode Decode podcast with Kara Swisher, the host at one point called Christopher Hitchen's "Chris". Sam immediately interjected and said he hated being called "Chris", to which the host replied, "He's dead, I don't think he cares."

Is Sam right here to correct the host, or is the host right in that it doesn't matter, he can't be offended or annoyed since he is already dead? If someone is dead, and their memory and reputation isn't being intentionally tarnished, it does seem kind of silly to correct someone on what the deceased preferred.

The game seems to run at just over 3/4 speed most of the match. I tried turning graphics settings down to the bare minimum and it made no difference. Battles in the camp and ranked matches run fine. Anyone else having the same problem? I'm on a galaxy S8+

Edit: It seems to only happen on the hard tower. Maybe it has something to do with that stupid timer (beat within x seconds to get higher rank) that keeps popping up that doesn't appear on the other sections of the tower.

It was annoying how long it took to get enough players for team PVP in bronze and silver league at certain times but now being in gold league it is just ridiculous, even during what should be peak hours. Is this game pretty dead at the high end or what? They need to merge servers or something for duel and team pvp because this is just BS.

You click on the village the app crashes.

You click to change characters too quickly the app crashes.

You use your special skill when there are a ton of enemies the app crashes.

You click to buy something at the honor shop the app crashes.

It crashes It crashes It crashes

Geeze Nexon, hire some friggin programmers that know WTF they are doing.

The NYT published an opinion piece critical of Elon Musk.

https://mobile.nytimes.com/2018/05/25/opinion/elon-musk-tesla.html

Sam, in his recent interview with Dave Rubin, essentially called it a dishonest hit piece and excoriated the NYT for publishing it.

And yet I don't see what is dishonest about it. Musk has made all sorts of outlandish claims (Hyperloop is essentially a joke, rocket travel from city to city is also a joke). His companies have had billions in government support. I definitely agree with the assessment that he is a slick salesman and that people aren't skeptical enough of his claims.

Take a look at a good critical analysis of the Hyperloop and the rocket travel idea

After listening to the podcast and reading some of the reactions to it, what I still haven't been able to understand is why Jordan insists on using the word "true" or "truth" instead of "useful/necessary for survival" and "not true" instead of "not worth knowing/not useful/leads to our destruction". Something Sam pointed out many times and something I didn't think was adequately answered by Jordan.

As an example (mentioned in the podcast), the statement that energy is released when two hydrogen atoms fuse together to form a helium atom, is a true statement (demonstrated in dramatic fashion with successful hydrogen bomb tests, not to mention it is our understanding of how stars produce ener

A lot of these indie devs are dipping into savings and going without any paycheck for long stretches of time to develop VR games, a gamble that may not pay off. Many of these devs are desparate for financial and marketing support to lower the risk and help ensure sufficient resources go into the development of their game.

Why isn't Valve and HTC doing more to offer such support to these devs? Valve and HTC can offer the support in exchange for Steam exclusivity and an additional royalty based on sales once the game is released. Oculus seems to be the only one coming in to make these offers of late, so its no wonder why many devs are saying yes to the only financial support option made a
