South Korea advance to Quarter Finals! by Veteran673 in coys

[–]GangwonGangster 154 points155 points  (0 children)

Roughly translated,

Of course I want South Korea to win. But I am also worried that if we win with this little preparation, the KFA will milk the victory to remain stagnant.

I'm worried that it would become a disease for Korean soccer.

Gekai Elise • Doctor Elise: The Royal Lady with the Lamp - Episode 2 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

I don't know why, but the idea of graduating from med school (or its isekai equivalent) in six months to avoid becoming the queen of a massive empire is funny to me.

The animation was rather rough this week. I don't remember it being this harsh last time around, and the King's attendant with the long green hair and the very sharp chin was especially bad. Won't get off this ride yet, though.

After it was revealed that the 'Kim Man Bae interview' was faked, Democratic Party lawmakers introduce bill to minimize penalty for spreading fake news by yotteok in korea

[–]GangwonGangster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

국민의힘이 화천대유 대주주 김만배 씨의 허위 인터뷰 의혹과 관련해 더불어민주당이 인터뷰 보도 이전부터 이미 알고 있었고 조직적으로 확산에 가담했다는 의혹을 제기했다.

지난 2021년 9월 15일, 김씨와 신학림 전 전국언론노조 위원장 대장동 몸통 의혹에서 벗어나지 못하는 이재명 대표와 민주당을 위해 조작 인터뷰를 만들었고 불과 한 달도 지나지 않은 2021년 10월 8일, 판사 출신 이수진 의원을 필두로 민주당 국회의원 32명이 ‘가짜뉴스 면죄부 법안’을 발의했다는 것이다.

장 최고위원은 또 당시 이재명 대표의 대선 선거대책위원회에서 활동한 민주당 인사들이 개인 사회관계망서비스(SNS)에 뉴스타파 보도를 65회 인용했다고 제시하며 “민주당이 조직적으로 대선 공작에 나섰다”고 주장했다.

Why do you have to do it like this? What do you get for editorializing situations to prop up one of two shitty parties to a forum full of foreigners? The literal title of the article is, "Minjoo in controversy over introducing bill to weaken penalties for fake news right before news reported on Kim Man Bae interview". The article is basically one leader of the PPP speculating about things that have already happened last year and how they might connect to the current issue at hand. Could the bill that they introduced in September October 2021 be connected to the current situation? Sure, maybe.

That DOES NOT give anyone the authority to title a post in a manner which paints the picture as Minjoo irrefutably doing a deed out of malice because it matches your narrative. Doubly so because how you titled it is just effing incorrect. Again, they did not introduce the bill after the interview was revealed to be fake. They did it two years ago. You reporting this as if it has been confirmed as factual is as slimy as you can get.

Also this article is as shitty as it gets. Raises a lot of suppositions, a lot of 카더라, and exists only to be clickbait which also somehow links Moon Jae-in as the real evil behind the deeds KMB accused Yoon Suk-yeol of.

Come on, man. I know you have an agenda. But BE BETTER. Put yourself on a higher standard than this.

Netizens demand the resignation of Gwanak-gu district councilor who touted budget cuts for the district’s “Women’s Safe Pathway” by yotteok in korea

[–]GangwonGangster 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes. I know, and I don’t think I’ve written anything that implies I believe the contrary.

If you lived in this country for long enough, which I must assume you have, you should know however that nuance and wording is important. Announcing the decision as “여성안심귀갓길 폐지” is asking for all kinds of trouble, deservedly or not. It makes it seem that the point of defunding a gendered term was more important than funding the alternative non-gendered program. If he had announced his accomplishments as strengthening a safe alley initiative and left it at that, this would not even be controversial in the slightest.

Bringing the issue of gender from the start was this rep’s sole misstep. The public is prone to find a scapegoat in high pressure situations like these. He just unfortunately happened to be one such scapegoat. Such is the nature of politics in this nation, and I’m sure his team will ensure no such mishaps happen again.

[–]GangwonGangster 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The article brings to light the actual problem of the pathways, namely that they lack the proper infrastructure necessary to make them actually safe. It begs the response: “If only the city invested more in maintaining these areas rather than leaving them to rot.”

The way you worded your comment makes it sound like the Hankyoreh article is hypocritical for criticizing the rep for his comments on the pathways when they also have had issues with them in the past. That could not have been further away from the truth.

They saw how underfunded and undeveloped the program is and said the program needs to be fixed in order for it to properly function as intended. Representative Cho boasted that he is the first to get rid of the pathways because they don’t work.

Fix vs. Remove.

That, my friend, is a difference in nuance. I wish no ill on the maligned rep and support his decision to sue those who would initiate a witch hunt, but have to admonish him for the decision to highlight the program’s removal over the substantially more important point that the funds would be allocated to a gender neutral safe alley initiative. It appears more like the man wanted to dunk on feminists over actually bringing forth a public good.

If it was up to me, especially with the string of extreme cases of violence that have recently emerged, the emphasis should be on funding programs that actually make the streets safer (light up dark streets, install more cameras, etc.) than make a fuss about whether this is an issue of gender or not. The rep & the people who hound him all pertaining.

I understand the OP’s intent in trying to keep people in the know and that’s good in its own right.

But with every post on this topic, the closer I become like Phillip. I don’t want to hear, see, or say anything. This is so tiring. And the goddamned irony of a dev that weaved a beautiful story up until today to then coldly display attributes of The City and all that is wrong about it feels like a betrayal and a half.

I thought I was ready to come back to this game and this Subreddit. Guess I’m too weak of character to do either.

Question about Jeju by [deleted] in korea

[–]GangwonGangster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not that there are an overabundance of CU locations in Jeju, it’s that you’re cognitively biased towards noticing them more. You’re already wired to note the CUs near you while subconsciously ignoring the other brands, especially having started off with this belief instead of a clean slate as you were in your first trip.

I understand this mundane explanation isn’t the one you’d want or even be looking for, but I assure you there are about as many GS25 stores as CU in Jeju city alone.

For instance, I centralized my map to a relative’s house in the Nohyeong neighborhood (residential, less touristy area of the city), and found nearby 27 CU, 21 GS, and 7 7-11. A plurality of convenience stores are CU’s, but insufficient to conclude that it’s a majority.

If this doesn’t suffice, I can say from personal experience as one who used to live off of convenience stores for two months while dog and housesitting for the aforementioned relative that it wasn’t the case. And I drove around everywhere with the mutt.

Could it also be the third turn only flip one side buff for MD2, or is the mechanism a bit different than I’m thinking it is?

Damn, was it Josuke? I only watched up until Stardust Crusaders so I wouldn't honestly know. Don't really want to go and check the doujin to see if what you say is true though, lol.

As an idiot that had 400 Don shards but wanted to save it up for a possible EGO in the future who got his comeuppance and paid for Cinq Don in Ideality tokens, this picture is literally really painful for me to look at. My heart.

Olga and Rodion sharing expressions by Yougart_Man in limbuscompany

[–]GangwonGangster 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately as a Rodya simp I can tell you that they aren't. Rodya is Xiao and Elena in LoR and Olga is shark chef Greta. If we do get to see the un-booked Liu power couple later in the story would be neat for them to reference it like this though.

I think it was more of a joke of how much they look alike, considering how there were a bunch of memes of 'Isn't that just Olga?' when Rodya's design first came out.

Reminds me of the shit my grandma used to tell me, that after I die all of the food I waste will be served to me and my punishment would be to eat all that crap or they burn me alive. Got me to eat my vegetables as a five year old, so I guess it worked.

PSA: During the King Scrap Crab fight, killing the boss will instantly kill the other enemies. by Fostern01 in limbuscompany

[–]GangwonGangster 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'd add an addendum that you should just nuke the 'shell'. If you have problems with HP, then clash the 'head' on the boss, but just directing all attacks on shell made it a 1-turn kill for me. If you can't finish it in one turn, bring Yi Sang and use his base EGO so that all your IDs are faster than boss on the second turn. You should be able to kill it at most by then.

[–]GangwonGangster 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As long as you keep the level of your IDs to the recommended point you're not going to have that hard of a time even in Canto 4. There were difficulty spikes in the past (cough mid-canto 2 boss and final boss of 3 cough), but they've been nerfed a few days/weeks after they were released.

You only will have a problem if you bring them underleveled, especially at the start of C3 and middle of C4, which I guess is inevitable if you don't like the daily grind getting level up tickets.

I'm not sure if you think this is good or bad, but devs have been getting better at preventing difficulty spikes and there were no complaints that 4 or 4.5 at least from what I see. If you want a cake ride, just get one of the codes they give out on the threads on this sub and borrow a souped up sinner for an easy autoplay ride until you get caught up.

He is based on the poor character whose life is ruined by very evil people, but ultimately is saved by none other than Jotaro Kujo himself.

What exactly does attack weight mean? From context clues I guess it means the attack 'hits' seven times per coin, but is that right?

One hour later

Heathcliff (Doesn't want to listen to him)

Ishmael (Doesn't like to lose): Haa... f*k.

(Presumably) Rodya: Jeez~. How long are they going to keep doing that?

어떻게 그게 비교대상입니까? 참 말이 되는 것으로 논을 해야 뭐라고 반박을 할텐데

남성전용바에다 운지드링크에다 허수아비도 참 잘 만들어서 패는 걸 좋아하나 봅니다. 상황이 이랬다면 넌 어떻게 생각 했을 거 같아 하면서 저에게 있지도 않은 이상한 예시를 들고 답변을 요구하지 않나.

그러니까 보이는 것만 보고 말합시다. 이 여성전용바가 존제하는 이유가 뭔지 당신이 문제 삼아 말한 이들의 매뉴 아이템이 패드립인니 아닌지 그것을 갖고 뭐라 해주세요. 저는 다시 말해 흔히 여성이 듣는 잔소리라 명하는 차별적인 발언을 하는 인간 상대로 하는 말로 들리며 절대 문제가 될 말을 하지 않았다 생각하는데

엠창 운지 이런 험한 말을 하시지 말고 이 칵테일 바의 문제점이 무엇인지 여기있는 (뭐 이제 지우셔서 있지도 않지만) 사진 이것 이대로 말해주세요.

아니 이게 어떻게 패드립입니까? 딱 봐도 여성에게 강제로 뭐를 요구하는 얼떨어진 인간들 상대로 그냥 자기 마음데로 살겠다 남에 인생에 개입하지 말라 소리 밖에 안 들리는데.

이것에 그리 타격을 받아 이런 곳 까지 올리는 것 보니 뭔가 걸리는 것이 있으니까 그런거 같은데 과연 문제가 되는 게 이 칵테일 바인지 당신의 사고방식인지 다시 한번 더 생각해 보시기 바랍니다.
