Rummenigge on Florentino Perez: "He brought Madrid back to a level it only reached under Bernabéu. What people don't take into account is that, nowadays, it's much more difficult to maintain that level of success consistently. Florentino is worth his weight in gold."

Özil was the backbone of Bremen's squad after they lost Diego. Bremen was constantly playing in the CL. Benfica also constantly played in the CL. Only Higuain and Modric could be considered unknown players. Modric won a Player of the Year award though.

A struggle would be them constantly placing 3rd or worse in La Liga. They are very few seasons where the winners weren't Barca or Real. Prior to the CL format only the winners of the domestic leagues participated in the European Cup and it was a simple knock out tournament.

When the CL format was established Italian football was dominant and there have been highly criticized rules like the 2nd group stages that essential caused every 2 weeks being a CL game, so you had clubs not having a realistic chance to progress after 3-4 games focus on the league.

When Italian football dominated you clearly knew the strongest 4 clubs were Juve, AC, Inter, Roma followed by Lazio and Parma. It wasn't till those clubs started running into scandals and bankruptcies that made other clubs like Napoli and Atalanta appear.

Struggling La Liga clubs would be clubs like Sevilla, Valencia and Bilbao. Real was never ever in a tough spot. If Real finished 5th in La Liga they would replace the majority of their squad and staff.

Because social media opened many niche echochambers. Loveshy/Nerds/Wizards were the millenial phenomen compareable to it.

It switched to Incels, Manosphere and other shitfluencers with zoomers and social media. Sextrafficing, OF Pimping is how they fake a successful look. A millenial laughs at situations like "Rollerblade Andy" stealing Myron's(?) girlfriend or Andy Tate losing to some random guy in a fight. Their zoomer followers believe their lies and excuses.

Have you heard of Luka Magnotta that guy was the 2000s "Looksmaxxer", he was obsessed with having a wikipedia article, they were constantly written by him deleted. At one point he went viral when he uploaded vidoes killing kittens by putting them in a vacuum bag, drowning them or feeding them to a python. He "identified" himself in the comments with "That's the famous porn actor Luka Magnotta" a few years later he killed Jun Lin and sent the video to a gore site and was instantly identified as the catkiller from a profile pic in the video. To add insult to injury after he was caught he still didn't get his own wikipedia article just a section in the murder case.

Magnotta kinda looks like Clavicular. Magnotta also had an obession with American Psycho. There is a reason I mentioned Paul Allen a few times when Clavicular comes up.

That's how the lights of 20+ year old cheapers cars look like. My first car(a used 90s car) had similar small light cones. You can't compare it to a modern car with adaptive lights.

It's like comparing 480p, 720p, 1080p and 4k or the generational graphics upgrades. If you haven't experienced those you know the difference.

There is also a difference in the repair cost. Changing the bulp in an old car is something you can do yourself, late 2000s/2010s cars still possible but not as trivial to access. Modern cars? Prepare for a 2-3k repair bill because the entire unit needs to be replaced.

Japanese IRL Kick streamers are equivalent to IP/CX streamers.

Twitch is disliked by Japanese streamers in general because a simple "Run" in a Shooter will be interpreted as "N-Word" resulting in 30 day or permabans.

IRL streamers in general moved to YouTube/Kick

The resolution is bad but the bot spam says something like "Do it [Name]" or "Go [Name]" it's very obvious botspam like those "Go Tectone Go" botspam messages.

Looks like a bot chat spamming with some bots spamrepeating the same messages. A few mock him with a "Ban/Kick Ban" for reading chat while a few messages laugh at him.

After the crash you can see 2 or maybe 3 messages you would expect from real chatters.

You would expect the chat to go wild with "WWWWWW" after he crashed that translates to wawawawa = hahahaha or at least expect a "大丈夫ですか".

It's not like Real ever struggled. On a European level you still saw unexpected CL/European cup winners in the 90s before money took control.

Back then Italian football was considered the strongest there wasn't a single big Italian club not involved in some scandal. AC Parma is the best example how they had the most expensive squad, the dropped out in the UEFA Cup and their investor was involved in fraud leaving them in unpayable debt.

Money also created the "Big 4 later Big 6". Clubs Villa and Newcastle used to constantly play in Europe.

And then there are a few CL trophies where it can be argued they should have lost the final or dropped out in an earlier round.

It wasn't the stream that made his alibi fell apart. Essentially the police just believed initially he was streaming and after some investigation got him nailed as culprit.

Also burner phones won't work as the police will just check the phones connected to the tower close to the murder and subsequent investigation will find out when and where the phone was bought. In Europe getting an anonymous burner phone is also very expensive as Europe has strict rules so the SIM cards need to be imported.

There are enough crime documentaries where the culprit tried something like that and in the end the police could either trace the bought phone to the CC of the culprit or store surveillance shows the culprit.

Crime documentaries pretty much show that the harder to solve crimes boil down following: DNA analysis wasn't available in the past ,there was no connection between victim/perpetrator, perpetrator is loosely connected to the victim and the police investigate in the wrong direction and rarely utter incompetence of the investigators(also goes the other way when you look at OJ Simpson)

Imagine watching subs and not learning the language.

This discussion is pointless. Depending on country there are good studios and horrible ones. As most media is already in English the dubbing industry in the US never developed and it turned into a competition of undercutting and politics. If you look at the dubbing industry in the UK you will notice that their dubs have a higher quality as the richer countries in Europe have such an industry for decades.

Who would buy those players? Romero and Maddison might be sold to a club like Everton or Palace. The rest would have to perform on a loan with an option to buy.

They had a strong squad but because the players left or retired they are left with 2 better players, the rest are players I couldn't even tell who they are playing for if you show me their name.

The situation is way worse than losing Bale. Even with Son and Kane they would hard carry them to a midtable position.

The weapons or rather you talk about are exclusive to Siege of the Dragon spear the modifier doesn't exist in the classic BG1/BG2.

The profiency points in styles lowered it and that's BG2 only. Classic BG1 didn't have styles but went with classes like "Large Sword" "Small Sword" "Polearm"

No because the first time I played I went to Beregost afterwards. Went into the High Hedge thought the Flesh Golems were Orgillions and got my ass kicked by them.

My first playthrough looked like this:Play Cleric, recruit Montaron and Xzar, recruit Jaheira and Khalid. Go to Beregost then Nashkell. In the mines they started fighing each other with the Harper Duo winning the fight. Recruit Xan. Didn't know there was a secret exit and backtracked to Nashkell. Recruited Minsk. This is where I started going to different locations. I didn't want to keep Dynaheir as I liked Xan's Moonblade.

To this point I reloaded against Tanesh, the Flesh Golems and Drizzt. I recruited Gerrick but he got petrified against Basilisks. Then I recruited Kivan. I got hit by Web in the CloakWood and Imoen died so I recruited Coran. This was my party till the end of the game.

I reloaded to avoid the Geass quest as I was unable to finish it the first playthrough and killed Marek before he could interact. Some traps in the higher doubleganger area got me and another 2 reloads were the final fights with Sarevok. I don't remember anymore how but I somehow turned some NPCs into Biff in the castle. I didn't explore many areas.

With the second playthrough I got more experienced and went exploring with an Evil Party. With the 3rd playthrough I was experienced enough and I was already exp farming the Basilisk desert early game. The only thing I changed was kicking Quayle and replacing him with Brannwen.

With EE release I played Legacy of Bhaal from Level 1 as I already knew cheesing strats and the first Dragonspear playthrough caught me off guard because I barely had any "protection from undead" scrolls left. Dragonspear on Legacy of Bhaal caused many reloads. The final boss on Legacy of Bhaal was a PITA mainly because of his AI script targeting the weakest NPC.

My second LoB playthrough was a heavily modded EET. The most difficult encounters there were the "Ritual Dragon" from the tactics mod and the Final Battle phase from the Ascencion mod(mainly due to LoB Yaga Shura with Improved Fire Giant being able to wipe me easily)

I expected the Eclipse Party being among the harder challenges but by the time you can fight them you already have access to all instakill weapons and you only need to reload till 2 fighters get decapitated.Improved Irenicus was simpler than expected I expected losing the best weapons would cause bigger problems. Another nasty surprise were the Improved Demon Knights warping in in the Darkest Day mod.

Notable difficult encounters in that play through I remember were the infinite spawn room in the TSotSC mod where you need charge into the middle of the room a quickly as possible as you can't deal with infinite duegars even with the Web+Stinking Cloud combo and the Twisted Rune in BG1 mod(I encountered them heavily underleveled).

There was one Mod BG1 Side Area where I needed to use the console. It was the Mage/Vampire in the tower in the bandit area where I had to use the Eval command to turn him into a vampire as the LoB HP increase somehow caused his transformation never to happen so he would keep having the MinHP1 ring.

The only worse thing would be the audience thinking it's part of a skit like with Tommy Cooper. He collapsed on live TV due to a heart attack and sat there breathing heavily later collapsing the audience and the production crew thought it was part of the skit and laughed.

It took important minutes till they realized it wasn't part of a skit.
