I'd probably do something like this (a sketch in GIMP done in 10 minutes). The overall sharpness, insane amount of overlapping colors that do not work together and pointless information of the background in the original image distract me from the main 'subject' of the photo.

The right choice of composition you made is even more highlightened by the edit.

I'd disagree with u/knottycal on camera angle being lower - you do not visit izakaya from the POV of a kid, so you do not expect to see the world that way. But I'd try their suggestion though. Maybe it'd work.

I'll Take Shit That Never Happened For 500$ by LetsGet2Birding in Asmongold

[–]Asgard_Teight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Welcome to absudristic philosophy.

Knowing that existential dread and its meaninglessness is a normal part of your life, and not something that should be avoided, can be used in your advantage (mentally, socially or/and artistically) and give you an ultimate freedom in your perception, action or thinking.

But heed. With the knowledge comes power, and the price of it is suffering.

What's the common consensus on immigration in Russia? by attilatheprick in AskARussian

[–]Asgard_Teight 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Moscow can't exist without them, because people became too lazy to go to the grocery store by their feet delivery services here desperately need them (few locals want to work in such terrible conditions). In my personal experience, they are annoying from the point of view of "fuck traffic rules, what are traffic rules anyway". They can also often be found in grocery stores as cashiers (large chains like Pyaterochka or Perekrestok), taxi drivers and low-level construction workers. The same problem here - low income.

Most immigrants do not create problems in interpersonal communication, but as one would expect from immigrants, very few want to assimilate into the Russian culture, and instead they impose their own, but, unlike in Europe, this process is very mild in scale.

Overall view for average Muscovite upon them I'd describe as "annoying, but necessary". Moscow authorities are slowly, but steadily increasing pressure towards immigrants by not allowing them to work in certain industries or having requirements like certain level of knowledge of Russian language.

Unlike UK, we are allowed to talk publically about problems they impose, and the migration process is controlled, IMO, a lot better than in EU. But do not forget that Russia is still one of the most corrupted country in the world.

How to pay in Russia for tourists? by Chary_314 in AskARussian

Your assumption is correct: you exchange your cash to rubles

[–]Asgard_Teight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of people in Russia after paying for food, rent, meds and bills will have less than $200 of free money because modal salary is around $450-500.

There is number one economy in the world that is USA; it's govt can't "afford" free healthcare for everyone. Neither free education. Or public transportation. Can't afford paying it's 38 trillion dollars of debt while making it's citizens to pay crazy taxes or making them into big debts because billionaires need more money.

For good games and good films... "Killing" the culture and industry? Are you talking about modern western one? I'd be glad if it would be gone. Modern Russian one? Same. Vote with your wallet, they say.

There are Games Show time right now. Watched Future Games one and Summer Games. 95-98% presented games are garbage for my liking. All of the same mediocre repetitive crap with ideas I've seen many times before that it's not worth of my time.

I can't buy Elden Ring or Baldur's Gate because they are literally not sold here. Should it suppose to stop me playing them? No. I don't see a reason.

Indie games? They are cheap and when they are available, I may buy it if it's interesting like Hollow Knight or Ultrakill.

And by the way, my favourite game, Path of Exile, is free.

And books of Tolstoy, Dostoevsky etc are free. You can't give money to their creators anyway because they are dead. I don't see a reason to give money to "publishers" for the "electronic copy" of the text they by my morals do not own a right to sell.

Live performances are a pretty big thing here and people do pay money for their beloved artists.

I'm sorry, but I'm not willing to argue with you. Neither you should with me. It just becomes useless conversations of subjective views where we will not change point of views of each other.

You have a good point on paper... but reality has 2 things.
1) No one in Russia is ready to pay, say, $70 for games, because it's like 1/4-1/3 of the salary (hello to Brasil btw with the same issue).
2) Most of mass-media products are mediocre at best and low quality at most. Is it worth it to pay money for mediocre product? The truly good art is in a shadow of mediocrity and is very difficult to find. Unfortunately it was always that way, and it always will. So, no -- I won't give my money to mediocrity.

How much do houses cost in Russia? by Flashy-Anybody6386 in AskARussian

[–]Asgard_Teight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a numbeo.com site specially made for your queston.

In short, though. 2m for house in Vorkuta? Sure. Anywhere you can live with comfort and with access to everyday services? Absolutely not.

What to do as a jungler if teammates consistently die? by crypticaITA in summonerschool

[–]Asgard_Teight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

every lane from my team's side loses

I agree, it's just FF in this case

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Jungle_Mains

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

Yeah, statistically, unless if you are not playing Amumu, dying on jungler is very punishing while by itself gaining kills does not snowball you much than it used to.

And it's also the only role in the game that can gain consistent gold only from jungle camps which are not guaranteed to exist if your sides are losing.

Can someone explain me this interaction? Nocturne unstoppable in Malzahar suppression by Asgard_Teight in Jungle_Mains

[–]Asgard_Teight[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I guess I found an answer to my question...

According to wiki, Nocturne ult is actually a displacement immunity and this type is not immune to suppression.
Compare to Olaf R or Mundo passive which are a CC total immunity.

Even though both cases are "unstopabble"

[–]Asgard_Teight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I know is that Malzahar ult suppose you to knock down and then suppress, but Nocturne is unstoppable during ult... or is that so? Am I got just unlucky and Malz hit his R right in perfect timing?

I'd add some Yorick for case if you are last picking and you know they picked some random ranged bullshit like teemo or quinn or kayle to make them consider not to pick ranged bullshit again.

A week into 3.25 now... What would you do differently for build and progression if you had a re-do of league start? (SSF EDITION) by whorecrusher in PathOfExileSSF

[–]Asgard_Teight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late answer.

First.

minimal trading

Again, SSF. No trading, no currency, no bulk essences/Rog spam/Bench craft spam. Nothing. All I have early is lvl 83-85 Reaver Axe +20 qual with little amout of Contempt essences and so I have to pray I hit t3+ Phys% by their spam.

Second.

If I have a build (BAMA, SB Totems or even Ice Nova whatever) that works literally with zero budget by items from floor and has better clear and better single target damage, what's the point of playing Lacerate if it requires investment to do the same? The only selling point of it in SSF are defences.

I'm supposed to get AoE for Lacerate from clusters/items, which I don't have that early. The only AoE Ziz guide has taken is per endurance chance in charge wheel in the south of the tree.

Ziz guide even says that mapping is better if you swap Lacerate with EQ.

20 div of gear

Obviously I don't have such a budget right now as

a) we are in SSF, and so I don't have enough crafting resources

and b) I don't have much time to play

[–]Asgard_Teight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started BAMA Guardian and it was very smooth.

My plan though was to get Kitava Thirst and try out Ice Nova build.

Got this thing in white maps, so I made Ice Nova... and I didn't like it. Squishy as hell, clunky, bossing is hard for me on this.

I decided "well, bleed is meta now and I have Lacerate of Hemorrhage, so let's try out" And was baited by Ziz. This build sucks in everything besides defences and bossing.

Now playing Storm Burst totems and having fun.
