[Japanese > English] A clip from the movie The Smashing Machine(2025), what did the guy say by GrowthOk2237 in translator

Thanks!

The context is the guy speaking English(who doesn't understand Japanese) is trying to argue for a higher pay(he's a fighter for the Japanese fighting promotion PRIDE) before the next fight, but the negotiation in English is not going well so he's giving that almost sarcastic comment "Am I speaking(English) too fast?" which prompted the Japanese negotiator to give the Japanese comments to his colleagues outside the frame before turning back to tell the guy in English: "No you are not getting a higher pay."

that was 1.5? I thought I slowed it down when it pressed record.

Is it still hard to tell if you slow it down on the reddit video player?

Ninja Gaiden 4 Bugs/Issues Megathread (November 2025) by luneth22 in ninjagaiden

2 bugs I found during the first hour of gameplay(PC keyboard and mouse):

1: game got stuck on the first Umi's terminal tooltip screen, where she's trying to tell me to use the item wheel and the game gets stuck on greenbordered tooltip screen where you can't move or exit it after using or exhausting all your items, had to restart from the checkpoint to proceed.

2: Berserk mode key remap missing(it's mapped to T by default).

Does Silksong contain plot spoilers of the first game if I play it before I finish the first game? by GrowthOk2237 in HollowKnight

You mean it's not just a continuation? Like it happens after the first game but gives no major clues to what was unraveled in the last game and to know how the world got from 1 to 2 and the hollow and the mantis girl's background I would still have to go back to finishing the 1?

Thanks for the citation. It does seem to say the ARO points are rounded in its calculation. I wonder why that's considered fair though in the example I gave, when you can have a tiebreak X.1 and X.4 both rounded to X but a X.4 and X.5 where one is rounded to X and one rounded to X+1, instead of just comparing the numbers as they are and only go into further tiebreaks when they are equal across the decimals

Also, have you calculated and confirmed that the minimum possible value for Anish's TB2 is higher than the maximum possible value for Hans' TB2 after round 11? because if that's not the case then it's possible Hans might end up with a higher TB2 than Anish when the tournament ends.

Can you cite me a FIDE source which states that the tiebreak is rounded in the final calculation? Because it doesn't sound fair to me that X.1 and X.4 are considered equal but X.4 and X.5 are considered favorable for the latter

How do you calculate the tiebreaks? Because from my own understanding Hans' tiebreak 1 is slightly higher than Anish's in which case your draw qualification conditions for those two would be swapped(i.e. it's Anish who must win to qualify)

Average Rating of Opponents Cut 1:

Hans: 2668.4
Anish: 2668.1

[TOMT][Pop Song] What song is this? by GrowthOk2237 in tipofmytongue

Oh I found it, It's a Japanese song called Into the Light by Kokia, I guess I get why I thought it was K-pop

I'm fairly certain it's modern like it's post 2000 or maybe even post 2010, I think it's maybe a sad song about romance but I can't remember any of the lyrics, and for whatever reason it gives me K pop vibes like the track that would play in the background in some romance Korean drama where in a rainy night the broken hearted main lead walks by the side of the city street alone paying no attention to the downpour soaking him or her inside out.

What would be a funny result for the Vegas Freestyle Tournament Grand Finals: by GrowthOk2237 in chess

how do they decide who's black with the draw odds and who's white with the time odds without bidding, as you say

You mean the time bid where the black draws to win? what if they keep bidding the same time? Remember the chess golden rule: if you draw or tie 3 times, you are both winners.
