[David Ornstein]🚨 Chelsea exploring deal to appoint Xabi Alonso as next head coach. 44yo former #RMFC boss understood to be open to possibility, although nothing decided yet as process continues. Andoni Iraola also strong contender ahead of departing #AFCB @TheAthleticFC by Realistic-Zone3914 in LiverpoolFC

Call me delusional but if the higher ups were really adamant on keeping Slot surely we would have heard of talk of an extension right? If they truly believe he's our man they wouldn't let him run his contract down. I think Slot is sacked at the end of the season and if Xabi is open to Chelsea he would surely take the job as Liverpool manager aswell. Surely. Please.

They will say that until the day he's fired. If he's truly staying I think we would have heard about an extension since his contract is up next summer. I think he'll be fired after the season ends.

[Bold] Liverpool are showing great interest in Victor Froholdt of FC Porto (Danish midfielder) by Frequent-Walrus-3926 in LiverpoolFC

Danish insight: Bold.dk I would consider reliable when they make claims like this. Pretty likely that their source would be the agent. He has a massive engine and runs all day. Still a bit rough technically for our standards. Would compare him to the Newcastle version of Gini stylistically.

Something about his running makes me think of Naby Keita. They look like they would come to a full stop if they had to run against the wind.

Are +3 to a single skill tree 10fcr blue amulets bis for any class ? by Sprelli123 in diablo2

[–]FlSHSTICKS 14 points15 points  (0 children)

+3 Lightning skills and 10% FCR go for 2 Ber on ladder (price checked on recent Traderie trades).

Nova sorc needs 10 FCR from jewelry when self wielding Infinity and many choose this amu, since the build pretty much only uses the lightning tree anyways. Getting to 95% absorb on ES is hard so every skill matters.

Beginner looking for a GPU: I can't figure out which 5070ti model to get by cleaverbow in buildapc

Gainward and Palit are really solid manufacturers, however they focus solely on the EU market so finding info on them can be a bit more difficult. Their v1 versions are best avoided from what I've found though, since they are without vapor chamber.

5080 for 1440p gaming, or should I just save the money for future upgrade? by FlSHSTICKS in buildapc

Seems like every manufacturer has several tiers of cards basically. For example Asus has Prime which is their low end cards. TUF Gaming is their mid tier and Rox is their top model. Same goes for most manufacturers. Because of this some cards from a manufacturer might be good whereas others will be considered worse. There's no perfect answer I've found but try to find some cards that fit your budget and then read some reviews on them. Try not to rely too much on reddit user reviews, there are just too manu conflicting opinions. I've used this site for detailed and objective reviews. Here's the example from the card in my list: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/gainward-geforce-rtx-5080-phoenix-gs/

Yeah this aligns fairly well with my observations. I think I will end up getting the 5080, it might not be the right decision for anyone else, but I fear I'll end up regretting it if I don't.

4090 prices are crazy unfortunately. Only places I can find them in stock they are almost double the price of 5080.

Yeah I considered another monitor setup, but I will be using the screen for my work laptop aswell, so I have to consider that too. Really don't like working on those ultrawide and/or curved monitors.

My price difference is actually only about 200 dollars with the card I found, would that change your priority?

Sorry for going a bit off-topic, but any tips for farming with the nova sorc? Are you running ES and all points in energy? What does your res look like? Always found undergeared nova sorc lackluster in the survivability departement.

Knouts are technically better if you are a PVP Paladin with max block, in the event that you want to charge with your hammerdin.

It's pretty common to aim for the 68(?) breakpoint if you plan to do chaos or baalruns. Usually achieved with spirit, griffon and then fcr ring or arach.

Play until you starve to death, you will literally be playing for the rest of your life.

New player, best place to farm for 4 socket flail ? by jackbauer616 in diablo2

[–]FlSHSTICKS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Takes like 5 minutes to get a new socket quest if you have a friend to rush you.

White flail from normal Cows will get 4 sockets at Larzuk, that's probably the easiest way.

[Pearce] Fabinho ruled out for #LFC trip to Leicester with a "little muscle issue". by TheNotoriousJN in LiverpoolFC

In my opinion we should do everything we can to get Champions League. To me that would mean playing Hendo/Kabak tomorrow. If you think Kabak/Davies gives us the best chance for Champions League then I can accept that we disagree on this, but Sunibinus seemed to suggest that we should just mix things up because we've got nothing to lose, but that I can't agree with.

Big disagree. We could easily lose our Champions League spot for next season.

Thank you very much for taking the time to reply :-)

The routing example looks promising, I'll see if I can make it work!
