  1. If I may share some minor, but often forgotten Tips or Optimizations for this Game:
    -Don't switch around too much the first ~30 Waves, the EXP will be spread too thin and you'll wipe to the 25 Rival or 30 Boss a lot more likely if you're unlucky with the Type Matchups. Focus on 1 – maybe 2 if they don't need much EXP early on. The rest of the Team will naturally catch up due to EXP All and EXP Charms about halfway on your Classic Run.
    -The Shop offers you what it can, catered to your current Team. Meaning it offers a Toxic Orb if you have a Guts Party Member, it offers a Thunderstone if you have a Pikachu ect. It will therefore only offer healing/status Items if your Party is damaged/impaired somewhere, so keeping your Team healthy at all times vastly increases the amount of Rare Candies, X-Items, Berries ect offered in the Shop over the duration of a Run. It's just Value ๐Ÿ˜€
    -You might've noticed that you get increasingly more Item Options in the Shop, starting at 3 and ending at 6 I think. These are the "Golden Pokeballs" you get at certain Threshholds that add extra Item Options to the Shop. Now, you reach the last Threshhold and the max Item rolls per Wave at 150, so I'd recommend to save the Money, Rerolling and specific searches for Mega Stones and so on until then. It's the most Items rerolled per use and theoretically has the highest Chance of Success when searching for something ๐Ÿ˜‰ Don't reroll early and instead just use your Money to keep your Team healthy for a higher average Rate of Items and Berries during the early game (as mentioned above).

    I know these are just small Tips or Value Plays, but they represent "abusing" or otimizing the Algorythm and crunching the Numbers for best possible results – which I believe to be exactly your kinda thing to do ๐Ÿ˜€ I believe you are – just like me – all about efficiency and tilting RNG in your Favour as much as possible hehe

  2. The Supreme Court decision is not crazy. It's rather simple.

    The President is effectively the embodiment of the Will of the People, as such any and all actions he takes would be 'legal', however, there are 3 tests it has to pass:
    1. Does Congress agree it was 'official', if not, they can impeach and confirm followed by any criminal prosecutions AFTER.
    2. Is it within the scope of the President's powers, determined by Supreme Court following a lawsuit, determining if that specific action is 'official'
    3. The People decide, winner takes all, aka worst outcome and test of the three.

    The decision is correct, anything else would be ludicrous. The Executive branch is equal to the Legislative AND Judicial, not subservient, could you imagine if the judicial branch could bring lawsuits up willy nilly against political riva… wait a second.

  3. 31:45 Smant's experience truly sums up the "North American coming to Europe" story. My friends were totally freaked out by contactless payment, the tiny distances between places, and the efficiency of public transport. I had to tell them to check distances between places so they didn't pay for a 2 min Uber aha
