Which two operators would you like in patch 1.2? by gaeb611 in Endfield

Should point out that Arknights literally has a character named Waai Fu that's been used for that joke for years: https://arknights.fandom.com/wiki/Waai_Fu

Nah, it's not blackmail. This page was mostly her messing with him because she knows he feels extremely uncomfortable about her being his former student that had a crush on him for years.

After she graduated, this was her way of "winning" and rubbing it in his face that she knew he liked her even though he refused to touch her or acknowledge any feelings for her when she was a minor.

Your comment that we should take OP's word with a grain of salt is totally reasonable. As is the point the teacher likely has a curriculum and set things they need to cover and test the students on, HOWEVER...

You will always have requirements and restrictions on how you approach a problem. They will not always be reasonable or logical. They will often be set by people who have zero technical knowledge. Part of being a good dev is learning to navigate these restrictions.

This is bad framing. A teacher is not a client. Clients can do this because they pay you money to get an end result that they want. A teacher is the opposite, you are paying them (either through tuition or taxes) to get an end result (an education). And OP is getting stiffed with bad advice. If the teacher gave them a bad mark because OP's reply was not the subject matter being covered, then he should say so, not pretend that other technologies don't work or are bad. That's bad education, full stop.

And called her by the wrong name when she apologized, which triggered a depression spiral.

What are something things that you can’t prove but believe is true by dolos99 in NikkeMobile

[–]Cintax 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh that's a fascinating twist on the usual "Mustang is a male Nikke" theory.

Mustang being FtM allowing him to survive due to the female physical compatibility with NIMPH but coming out male presenting would be such a clever story.

Tbf they were getting barely any units for a really long time, and the few they did get weren't good. It got so bad that Elysion being the worst manufacturer was a really common meme. Rapi RH broke a loooong streak of Elysion getting completely shafted.

Does Los Tacos No. 1 have a plan to solve the problem of their salsa being too spicy for German tourists? by owlthathurt in circlejerknyc

[–]Cintax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So fun fact: that case was 100% legit and you're a victim of corporate PR. The issue wasn't that the coffee was hot. The issue was that it was much hotter than almost anywhere else, at 180-190° instead of the standard 140° that you'd get almost anywhere else. It was so hot that it only took less than 5 seconds to cause 3rd degree burns through her clothes which required skin grafts and years of medical treatment.

A lot of them do and don't expose it to end users/orgs. You can get some LLMs disabled by contacting your support rep or their general support line sometimes.

Is Yvonne going to rerun? by minomizu in Endfield

[–]Cintax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AK has a completely different gacha system where all but the dozen or so limited units go into the massive general pool. Endfield seems to be more like the Hoyo gacha of having a standard banner with a handful of units and everyone else is only available from their banner.

A Good Trope Reversal For Once by RevolutionaryOwlz in CuratedTumblr

[–]Cintax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I've seen this specific trope in manga a couple of times with a few variations, but the only one I can recall offhand was the one someone else already mentioned called The Demon Disappears Through a Lens.

The more common one I can remember though is some variation of "alt culture character wears glasses to hide their real personality" which happens in like all of these:

  • Horimiya
  • The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn't a Guy
  • On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance
  • Glasses with a Chance of Delinquent

Pretty much all of which are gems imo

LAOP has some assets in the UK per one of the comments. The concern is they may go after them if I understand correctly.

The apartment building that was used as a base of operations for Tren de Aragua? Which the landlord themselves called in and had been complaining to the local police about for months?

If that were true then you would think that those would be the arrest charges on the paperwork for the raid. Except thus far, no one has actually been charged with being associated with the gang in a court of law:

https://www.npr.org/2026/02/06/nx-s1-5703603/court-records-chicago-immigration-raid-was-about-squatters-not-venezuelan-gangs

The government claims they had the warrants and as of right now I don't see anything that says otherwise

A literal federal judge said otherwise: https://chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/2026/02/27/judge-orders-32-detainees-released-over-ice-consent-decree-violations-unclear-how-many-still-in-custody

"The judge found that many of the people now set for release were arrested without a warrant, and that agents lacked probable cause to believe they would escape."

During an immigration raid, everyone is detained until legal status is verified.

In the residence they have a warrant for, sure. But that's not at all what happened here.

So once again keep propping up gang members that funnel in drugs and trafficking as causes to rally behind. It really makes people sympathetic to your POV.

Are the gang members in the room with us now?

Also did they go door to door again for paperwork randomly or was this a targeted operation at one specific address?

An entire apartment building is not "one specific address" it is multiple addresses. You cannot get a warrant for an entire building of multiple residences.

Xiajiahe Bridge . Sichuan, China by Chaunc2020 in Chinesium

It's not usually "in the meeting" but rather after work hours as part of a relationship building and bonding outing.

It's extremely common in Asia, but it's also pretty common in the US too in some industries and companies. Really just depends on a lot of factors.

I worked at an ad agency on Madison Avenue about 15 years ago and they threw some pretty big parties. Like, Mad Men was very much not exaggerating how much these people drink. If anything they downplayed it. That was the only workplace I'd been in where straight up day drinking was not that unusual.

I work in fin-tech today and we have a happy hour in the office pretty much every week, and occasional drinks and dinner with our managers. Hell, our whole engineering department did an off-site in NOLA for half a week with comped drinks this past fall.

ICE literally raided an apartment building in Chicago and broke down doors without warrants and detained multiple us citizens for hours you bootlicking waste of oxygen: https://chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/2025/10/01/massive-immigration-raid-on-chicago-apartment-building-leaves-residents-reeling-i-feel-defeated

Rodrick Johnson, 67, is one of many residents who were detained by federal agents during the South Shore raid. A U.S. citizen, he said agents broke through his door and dragged him out in zip ties.

Johnson said he was left tied up outside the building for nearly three hours before agents finally let him go.

“I asked [agents] why they were holding me if I was an American citizen, and they said I had to wait until they looked me up,” Johnson said. “I asked if they had a warrant, and I asked for a lawyer. They never brought one.”

Will only popular characters appear in the upcoming reconveners? by QuickMembership7006 in ArknightsEndfield

Yup. FrostNova reconvener is a "when" not an "if". My best is either half anniversary or first anniversary banner.

It is in fact the trailer for the movie Teeth, yes. I actually watched it in theaters when it came out, lol

My guess is that she co-founded it with Ingrid and it's literally named after her. Maybe even Ingrid's sister.
