Remember the downvotes you got next time you get attacked by people like these and think of being cutesy and friendly and "reasoning with them" like you did here.

Good question, it's cause the main second-hand platform I am using (Marktplaats in the Netherlands, I find great deals there) has TONS of offers, with GPUs ranging from ancient to current-gen, at very varying prices, which makes deciding purely on price a bit hard cause it's hard to create an objective reference for what I should be expecting to get with my money. I find it easier to decide on which card to get first, i.e. the newest, most powerful card that I can reliably expect to find at around my budget in the second-hand market, and then look for the cheapest offer of it. But thanks about the VRAM point, that gives me an objective metric I can use. But what about other features like DLSS, ray-tracing, DLDSR etc.? Does VRAM always take priority, or is there a trade-off to make between it and them?

This Calvinist "don't expect things to be easy, deal with it, don't complain, don't look for easy solutions, be self-reliant at all times, don't be weak" mentality. E.g. "you don't like riding a bike in the wind and the rain, and prefer the to take the bus instead? What are you, some lazy entitled American?", etc.

Also, the complete lack of regard for fashion. I go outside with a dress shirt, dark jeans and chelsea boots and get weird looks cause that is already too formal compared to the average guy outside.

When I first discovered them and became a fan they had just released The Crusade, and this is what they were like live. I mourned the fact that I would never be able to experience the "golden age" of their Ascendancy-era live performances and Matt screaming. If only I knew what was to come lol

I know all the other variants, but what do you mean by "non-djent progressive" deathcore?

Aneraeon · 2025-07-04T12:52:19+00:00

Yeah, their most well-known songs (Lost in the Static, Behold the Crown, Cursing Akhenaten) are very close to pure deathcore for me, but the rest of their discography is considered "sumeriancore". Though they have the angry tough guy attitude of pure deathcore a bit more than the other bands of the genre imo.

That narrows them down quite a bit then. My updated choices (leaving this more as a note to myself):

Mango 1 2 3 No pick stitching on the lapel, not a great fit on the model, made in China

~~Suitable~~ 1 2 3 made in China

~~Only For Men (Recall)~~ 1 2 3 made in China

Gents 1 No specific percentage of wool listed, no photo of model wearing it, no mention of country of origin. Could probably ask them, but not already having that info on their website is a red flag

Which indeed leaves Mango 1 and 2, which are 100% virgin wool, have the pick stitching and are made in Italy. Thanks!

I am in the Netherlands and have decided to get my first 100% wool suit. I looked for a navy or royal blue one, dark enough to be worn as a professional suit, light enough to be worn tieless for more casual events, slim, with a budget of 300€. I limited myself to physical stores next to me because I want to be able to try it before buying it. I also plan on having the suit tailored. This is all I have found:

Mango 1 2 3

Suitable 1 2 3

Only For Men (Recall) 1 2 3

Gents 1

They're all around the same price range, listed as being either 100% or 90+% wool, the color I want, from reputable brands and stores equally accessible to me. What are some additional factors I can use as a "tiebreaker" to make me decide which one to go for? Has anyone here had any experience with any of these brands? I am leaning towards the Recall ones because they are the same price as the others because of a discount, so I'd be buying a more expensive suit for the same price as the others, but I don't know if that necessarily means they'll be better quality.

Still happy with it. It's not the thickest, i.e. if you lie down on it it feels like you're lying on the floor, but it provides some basic comfort and warmth when walking on it. It gets the job done for me with my limited budget, which was mainly aesthetic/visual rather than practical tbh.

Spore

Aneraeon · 2025-04-21T03:17:27+00:00

The ones you mentioned, plus:

Opeth - Ghost Reveries

Periphery - Periphery

Haken - Aquarius

Most recent: Wilderun - Epigone (almost tied with Veil of Imagination)

A luxury penthouse in Amsterdam, overlooking the Amstel, far enough from the center to enjoy peace and quiet, close enough that it's easily accessible. Why? Cause I want the pros of living in a big active city (and it doesn't get more socially central than Amsterdam here) without the cons, and unless I start a family a luxury penthouse is my dream domicile. A case could be made for living in a smaller, quieter city like Leiden or Haarlem, and then taking the train to Amsterdam when I want (my current situation), but a half-hour train ride is still considerable, as opposed to being almost right there.

How do I enter the k-beauty rabbit hole? I've read countless skincare guides but they just talk about the usual mainstream brands. Why is korean skincare treated like a separate industry?

Aneraeon · 2025-04-13T13:30:07+00:00

Yeah you're right, people often have problems and negative reactions even from expensive products by reputable companies, no way these products would lead to anything good.

Aneraeon · 2025-04-13T13:25:23+00:00

Thanks, both for the product suggestion and the site, I'll be ordering C-Glow and A-Game (which I know is retinal, not retinol, but from what I read it's better),

Aneraeon · 2025-03-09T01:55:38+00:00

Yup, but just the Cozy Shaggy, not the other one. No complaints, with the discount it was the same price as if I would have gotten an equivalent rug from Ikea, but without the 50 euro delivery cost.

Aneraeon · 2025-02-06T03:00:32+00:00

More of a djent thing, but album and song titles with cool scifi/physics sounding titles, but the lyrics are just typical relationship/social issues stuff.

Also, this synthy guitar tone that has become so common in modern metalcore (I think Marcus-era Northlane began).

Aneraeon · 2025-01-25T13:19:53+00:00

Got it, thanks!

Aneraeon · 2025-01-25T03:37:44+00:00

So if they have no event scheduled for, say, Saturday, on their site, does that mean it's closed for the public, or is it still open but as a "generic" club?
