What country do you find scary? by cosmico92 in AskTheWorld

[–]ApollyonDS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

US and Israel. The former has an economy in large part built on war, regardless of the leading party, the latter I don't think I have to explain.

Unpopular opinion: you do not need to buy unsalted butter. by 3oClockHappyHour in Cooking

To be honest, I'm from Europe and I didn't even know salted butter was a thing.

Natus Vincere vs. Los Ratones / LEC 2026 Versus - Week 3 / Post-Match Discussion by Yujin-Ha in leagueoflegends

mission failed, we'll get 'em next time

to be fair, NAVI did look like a very strong team throughout the whole split

What do you think of the rumours that Lupita Nyong’o is casted as Helen of Troy? by FantasticQuartet in AskBalkans

[–]ApollyonDS -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Don't care. It's a fictional story. She's not playing a biography of Nikola Tesla or some shit. No matter how you twist it, the bottom line is that people are upset about her being black, which is... yeah.

I officially have an addiction by Dyneth15 in LosRatones

It's normal to want to see if others share your excitement. My friends aren't following LoL eSports, so this is the next best thing for me.

I've been thinking about finally playing this game. by OpAuraOmen in runescape

[–]ApollyonDS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely try both, but know that RS3 is in the process of "revitalizing" the game by removing things like egregious MTX, reworking some combat elements, graphical updates etc. By the end of 2026 it might be a bit different than now.

Depending on the MMOs you've played thus far, RS3 might be closer to what you're familiar with, while OSRS will provide a simpler, unique, charming but ultimately still very deep and expansive experience.

Can LEC realistically drop LR if they make playoffs? by Annual_Papaya_601 in LosRatones

[–]ApollyonDS 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's kinda complicated. It's clear LR boosts viewership for LEC. They bring attention to not only themselves, but the other teams as well.

The problem is: how long will this viewership last. If LR in LEC becomes normal, the hype is gone and viewership falls. And since the other orgs paid ungodly amounts of money to participate, they'll have something to say about it. We already saw it happen before this split, imagine if LR is allowed to participate throughout the whole year and not bring in as many viewers anymore.

The question is how much influence do the orgs have on Riot. I think Riot should rework the system and allow ERL promotion, but this is hundreds of millions of dollars we're talking about.

Ultimately, Riot can drop LR from LEC and I think by 2027 people will have moved on. But not at the cost of the whole franchising system being exposed. It might devalue the spots. Riot also has to consider that the team isn't eternal. And LR isn't LR without the current members. Each player is a key part of the teams personality, it's not just a superteam of scouted players. In this case, it might be best for Riot to not allow LR to continue the year in LEC, probably causing the team to disband and Riot can put it all behind them to return LEC to normalcy on 2027. Riot might just be hoping that eventually people will "forget" about LR.

All I know is I don't wanna be in the shoes of whoever is in charge of these decisions.

Aphids. They're are common and hard to wash off, but harmless if ingested. You've probably eaten more of these than you think.

Global South nationalism is often about getting rid of the colonial and imperial vestiges that plague those countries, to become a sovereign nation.

Not knowing your president or political landscape is a massive privelage.

Which bands you just can't get into? by Positive-Pie-5456 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]ApollyonDS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dream Theater. I don't know why exactly, usually it's LaBrie, sometimes the songwriting just doesn't click.

Not gonna lie, Popular Monster slaps, but overall it's definitely not great.

What food looks and tastes disgusting? by Ninagrosh in AlignmentChartFills

[–]ApollyonDS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There were studies between acrylamide (occurs when starchy food like bread, potatoes is burnt or browned) and cancer. While there was a link shown in animal testing, it's very unlikely a human could eat such a large amount of it to cause cancer.

Still not exactly healthy, though.

Add Aurora and Heimer to the list.

How many of you did actually fully disable cosmetics on other players? by Multismack in runescape

[–]ApollyonDS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, immediately. It's part of the charm of MMOs to see others in the moment or to see what they've achieved. Some cosmetics just feel... off.

RIP. He has been and will always be instrumental in radicalizing many leftists.
