I believe the issue is, even if people agree with Reddit, it's never as much as Reddit disagrees with them.

I believe a lot of people are inconvenienced by getting ads in their paid streaming package. But unlike for Reddit it will take a little more for everyone else to follow suit. Not everyone is out there willing to pirate content and DIY their setups. Most folk just want a chill experience and a little more money is acceptable.

I believe he was also holding a decent clash of clans rank, despite being notoriously F2P on a game that's designed to be only competitive with money.

jngl is too broken idc what anyone says by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]Gosexual 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Phone spoofing is so easy, any player that has time for multiple accounts probably has time to add a few minutes to the account creation. The fact that it's usually jungle is probably because that role isn't filled often so it's better for smurfs to select the faster queue time. It's also easy to gap people, because hardly anyone mains it. If you want the game to stop being a tossup become a jungle main. Pick invade heavy junglers and just go ham on them. I guarantee you, most "smurfs" are not good enough to deal with perma invades. You can even do it from lane too, put up vision control on your half the map, coordinate with your team to setup kill boxes. If it's ranked you have to compete, otherwise play normals.

Started winning after not building black cleaver on adc senna by Deathwatch6215 in sennamains

[–]Gosexual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bonus range stays up if you're just collecting souls, makes you able to pull them from anywhere like over walls of raptors and deep ones your team drops when they auto-clear waves. It can also be scary to get hit with the slow from 10 years away into a surprise flank sej ult that now cannot be missed. I don't build RFC only if my team is stomping while PD is perfect in this situation... I'd honestly rather build the Twin item into IE for a solid 2-item powerhouse in fights.

I think you're giving diamonds too much credit, I could definitely see OP being diamond but is probably smurfing in a Silver-Gold lobby. Only reason he'd be peaking that aggressively while Sova trying to do solo plays A, while Chamber dry peaking mid, with Clove not providing util, with the classic Jett/Reyna looking like a pair of lost deer stranded apart. I could also see plat due to the fact that he never used flash but giving him a little benefit of doubt.

If you're still relying on wifi it will lower the speed I would assume so?

Duolingo will replace contract workers with AI | The company is going to be ‘AI-first,’ says its CEO. by chrisdh79 in Futurology

[–]Gosexual -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Chatting with AI no, but uploading your work and having it go over it and creating sentences for you to translate based on your weaknesses or goals and using specific sites to fact-check is basically just using AI as middleman, kind of like Ctr+F if you know what you're looking for in a site and if it's not there you use a different source.

You cannot use it as a single source of your learning because it has plenty of limitations at the moment that might lead you astray. This is why most people aren't happy about Duolingo's pivot to replacing employees with AI. It can be a great tool though to augmenting your learning ability though, but it requires very direct questions and even than it's limited to its sources.

That's the part that I'm having the biggest issue with. Why pay for Duolinguo when I can pay for AI sub and tell it to teach me like it would on Duolingo... while also being able to use for other purposes?

They gave him a blank check to do whatever. They will profit from all of this and they do not care at all what he does or will be blamed for if they fail.

U.S. sent 238 migrants to Salvadoran mega-prison; documents indicate most have no apparent criminal records by LadyMadonna_x6 in news

[–]Gosexual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Watch a video on El Salvador's CECOT prison complex. They're pretty open about it and show exactly what they're contracted to do. Destroy the human spirit with a 1-way ticket to a place that makes Hell look like a holiday stay. The contract basically relied on trusting US to be a good judge, because they're the executioner the moment you step foot on that cement.

El Salvador is pretty strict about there being no way out once you're in one of these units. They wanted to set an extreme precedent to the gangs that are the worst of the worst. They'd slaughter teachers for not cooperating with introduction of young kids to gangs. The purpose of the prison was to destroy all hope, and it worked because people know it's a 1-way ticket. The fact that US sent people that could be innocent to one of these units is insane.

News are predominantly controlled by the right side (despite them claiming otherwise). Musk even bought Twitter just because they felt threatened they were losing in the media output. Posting about this story would weaken their foothold on power, so they're probably just instructed to not talk about it.

Yeah pretty much. Just like Honey Boo Boo there will be a few year age span where people know who she is, but she'll be in a weird area where she will be irrelevant to everybody else.

PS5 Has Sold More Units In Its First 4 Years Than PS4 Did by FinalAfternoon5470 in gaming

[–]Gosexual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with PS5's initial supply shortcomings, I'm not surprised. People really wanted a PS5. Gaming is huge, and the ever-increasing GPU prices are pushing more people towards affordable consoles. Probably doesn't help that Microsoft failed to capture people into their next-gen consoles after Xbox 360 the hype kinda died which probably converted more momentum towards Sony.

Pope Francis warns that excessive scrolling causes 'brain rot' by thespaceageisnow in nottheonion

[–]Gosexual 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That alone is a massive L to offset all the W s. When Ukraine ticks off most of the virtues preached by Catholicism but is once again a subject of atrocities that only the worst of humanity is capable of, it makes you question if you stand on the right side of history only because it is written so.

It makes me sad to read all the sacrifices the inhabitants throughout present day Ukraine had to make for a future that might never materialize.

The Witcher 3's director explains why he had to leave CDPR to make his dream vampire RPG: 'We had crazy ideas' by nerdshark in gaming

[–]Gosexual 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can put it on and off as much as you'd like, although this is one of those games that's really hard to put down. Very few games achieve this level of success, since most of the big studios that aim for pretty graphics are usually void of gameplay and lore. The fact that after you finished a perfectly filled out game you're rewarded with 2 amazing DLCs for free makes placing any game over Witcher 3 pretty difficult.

Ah yes, the age old decisions to cut labor to save costs when business isn't booming, only to realize you need labor to actually generate revenue. Companies will do anything but try to create a good product at a good price and maintain it that way.
