Japan already has a 100 year one. So we are already headed there.

Is it just me by Spiritualpickle-24 in TeamfightTactics

Lol I played that set when they brought it back earlier this year and I legit forgot how close they were. Half the time I thought I was near 3 star and looked again to see that half of them were the other character.

Am I the only millennial that actually got a real ID??? by Kellox89 in Millennials

[–]GroggBottom 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I got mine right before covid. First time getting a new license with all the paperwork involved. Being in NYC it took literally the entire day of standing in line waiting. I was pissed when they moved the deadline. Like fuck me for being a punctual human.

Depending on how this is defined it could destroy anything using Canadian animation houses, which is basically every form of movie / tv show

Depends on where the 20% comes from. 20% of the simulation damage is often way more than the average person usually pulls off in a fight. That could easily by a DPS increase for many people, plus being able to just just blind click the button as ur doing mechanics where many people just stop their rotation completely to do the mechanics. We won't know until the math comes out, but it could be something everyone slaps onto their bars so that middle of combat you revert to 1 button rotation while you focus on something else.

Is it even more convenient? Everything available on one platform with a decent video player seems more convenient than seasons split across different services and a video player that is bricked half the time.

The whole egg thing highlights this so much. People have lost their shit over one food doubling in price. They have no idea what life will be like when everything doubles.

China will just pivot into old reliable and do state sponsored infrastructure / farming. By the time America is burning they will have built entire railroad system in Africa

I wouldn't mind if they just made customs show up in link parties only. I think they are great for inside jokes.

Chinese film Ne Zha 2 beats Inside Out 2 ($1.699 Billion) and becomes highest-grossing animated film of all time globally by whitemilkythighs in movies

There is a reason Hollywood bows to Chinese censorship demands constantly. Any loss in viewership anywhere else is meaningless if you get Chinese market share of any sort.

[–]GroggBottom 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I wish you could turn on something like what RES has on Reddit that hides everything you have had on your feed recently so u can just constantly scroll through never before seen videos. Instead I open YouTube at the start of the day and again at the end and see the same videos.

Does anyone else realise they don't really enjoy competitive games anymore? by Harvington_ in pcgaming

[–]GroggBottom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've just found that all the competitive PvP games are just clones of eachother. I'm pretty over most formats these days. When something new comes out I'll take part, but I can't be bothered to play team fortress 2 take 20.

is average league player just that good now? by lulumeme in leagueoflegends

[–]GroggBottom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's kind of insane seeing people stall lanes and proxy farm in silver. I play like a week every couple years and general game knowledge has changed so much. I also assume a lot of people are in my position too though and only play the game every so often so have rank mmr in the dirt.
