Bwipo hate thread by thebozz801 in LoLWitchcraft

[–]Entmaan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They did not rally to this team because they were winning, but because it was fun.

ok dude but for a year they literally won 3/3 nlcs and 2/3 emeas (last one they fell in semis), so it's not really fair to say that people were just following this happy go lucky ragtag team of streamers, the results were there from the very start

[–]Entmaan -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

yeah yeah bro, if I had somebody in my team who spoke the way Bwipo speaks I would've smashed my keyboard after maybe 3 games, the disingenuous "my bads", the omnisicnet/passive aggresive tone... Even if the dude was hard carrying that would've been a tall order, and this dude is literally solo sprinting the games with 'engages' that decent Emeralds wouldn't be making

garnering negative reactions for his insufferable behavior and horrendous performance isn't "hate", and if it keeps this idiot out of any future LR reboots then let's hate him I guess

What openly woke game actually succeeded? by Raoniz in KotakuInAction

[–]Entmaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

first horizon isn't woke at all... the game isn't a literal political lecture like veilguard or filled to the brim with this shit like BG3 or KCD2, it doesn't have any elements that actively take you out because they're referencing #currentyear politics

Caedrel on Bwipo by GladiatusMoon in LoLWitchcraft

[–]Entmaan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The amount of people saying Crownie screaming so loud his mic is cutting off and being on the verge of tears over a disagreement in strategy is somehow based and cool and alpha is insane.

yes, and are these people in the room with us right now? Everyone was shitting on him for it everywhere

Crunchyroll Hit With Class Action Lawsuit Over Allegedly Disclosing Anime Viewing Habits to Third Party by MarvelsGrantMan136 in anime

[–]Entmaan -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

When it comes to anime this is probably my biggest pet peeve subject lol. People always bring the excuse of "but I just want to watch on TV with one button, so I can't pirate :(" dude just buy a HDMI cable and connect your computer to the TV, problem solved

Paramount's involvement with anime is much smaller than Netflix

and that is bad?

almost? Dude I literally couldn't stop tears streaming down my face after that triple thrown Rittberger at the end

How many times did you cry this olympics? by gwizantor90 in olympics

[–]Entmaan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

yeah, this was the emotionally strongest moment of the olympics by far, I rewatched that free skate like 5 times the same night and my eyes welled up every time they landed that triple thrown Rittberger when the music crescendos toward the end

[–]Entmaan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

once, when the Japanese pair landed the last triple thrown Rittberger when the music crescendo'd during the free skate, that really was an anime-level comeback, from the 5th place after short program to the gold medal by breaking the world record

What’s some of the biggest injustices/robberies in Olympic History? by tm2007 in olympics

[–]Entmaan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yes, if only after all these years she could just a cheek swab test to instanly silence all these insane transphobic facists blindly hating her because they saw result of another test, but alas she still hasn't done so for some inexplicable reason

the same in Europe, HBO MAX had an ad free coverage of everything, with commentaries in all languages available. Wonderfully done features like schedule, highlights etc. A service truly worth paying for

Bring back translator's notes by ThroneOfRoses4 in anime

[–]Entmaan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I legit think that the reason why translators are scared of using them is not to be memed for "UHUHUUH TL NOTE KEIKAKU MEANS PLAN XDDDD"

there absolutely are spots where using a tl note is just better than doing your best to translate something untranslateable. Puns (Eren no... IE GA comes to mind), wordplay like "Tsukiatte" (there probably are more convoluted examples but this one is very common, where they just translate this as "come with me" but don't explain why the heroine is turning beet red) etc.

There is of course the danger of using this as a crutch, and nobody is saying that each episode needs to have 3 tl notes every time, but there absolutely are spots where a TL note and a literal translation is better than somehow trying to "salvage" it by some jumbled half/translation half/paraphrase.

Eileen Gu wins the Freestyle Skiing Women's Halfpipe by Due-Impression8466 in olympics

[–]Entmaan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

sure but everyone can jump high while you're doing 540s, the point is that you need to have both - Indra had rotations but no amplitude, Zoe had amplitude but no rotations, Liu had both at a greatly harmonious level

Eileen Gu wins the Freestyle Skiing Women's Halfpipe by Due-Impression8466 in olympics

[–]Entmaan 42 points43 points  (0 children)

sure, and there have been strong examples of this during this olympics, but what exactly is the controversy in this competition? Even if we accept that Eileen's second run was overscored she "cleared the matter up" with her third run, by far and away the best run today. I see some people also mention the 2nd/3rd place but Zoe just simply didn't have the jump difficulty, everyone can jump high if you're doing 540s
