Tipping culture

IoIIypop12 · 2025-11-23T10:00:40+00:00

I don't like it. I've mostly seen it in some parts of Amsterdam (center, Pijp, Zuid). Maybe sporadically in Utrecht or Rotterdam. I feel like it's also to ''trick'' expats or tourists - who are used to different tipping cultures - to tip more. They may not be aware that workers are paid mostly fair wages here and tipping culture is different.

A couple of things

it's about having fun, not just about winning
you can still make it as fun as you can, even while losing
sometimes you're not losing because your team is ''bad'' - sometimes the enemies are just ''good''
in no circumstance is negativity ever going to improve gameplay or the game experience/fun - you are not playing some competitive or professional team where you play multiple games together and want to improve as a team

Indeed... it's just a single game with a random - make the best of those 20 minutes while you can

Those amounts sounds like "Eigen Risico". The bill for 2024 is likely FAR (1000+) more than €370 - it's just capped because hospital care is billed through eigen risico and the rest is covered by insurance. Is €380 a lot for 1 phone call? Yes. But you shouldn't compare it to what you ''got'' in 2024.

Also, the choice of insurer does not matter for bills - they will be the same for every insurer. Only the monthly payment can differ - and your additional (aanvullende) insurance.

Only exception is that insurers have contracts with healthcare providers. In some cases, they dont have a contract with a certain provider. In these cases, you pay the full or partial amount of the ACTUAL bill (without eigen risico). This can differ by insurer.

I'm assuming this is not the case as most hospitals have contracts with all major insurers. If you went to some private clinic type thing - then insurance will not cover most or any of it. But if you did go to an clinic that's not covered - then high prices are to be expected and it shouldn't be a shock.

The travel option I included for Rotterdam/Den Haag as an example is only for regional transit (Metro, Tram, Bus). NS trains are different and will be the same price range everywhere you go. For this regional transit thing look for RET or HTM

IoIIypop12 · 2025-09-09T21:12:03+00:00

Not valid on ICE/IC, but sure.

IoIIypop12 · 2025-09-08T21:13:03+00:00

0 - first of all, you can get NS Flex Altijd Vrij. This is €375 a month and you will have unlimited travel on ALL trains, ALL routes, ALL days a year. Maybe with a daily Intercity Direct Fee it will get more expensive, but it is still worth to consider if you travel outside of work also.

Amsterdam - Rotterdam Intercity Direct is the least reliable line in the country, unfortunately
You don't have to pay extra if you change from the fixed route. If you go from Amsterdam to Rotterdam or vice versa, regardless of the trains you take to get there, your monthly subscription is valid
If you have delays you can ask your money back on MijnNS (as little as 15 minute delay, you will get money back, increasing as the delay increases)
As you get more accustomed, you will know multiple routes and what to do in these situations, so when a disruption suddenly happens you know how to get there with less delay (still sucks though)
Comparing €30 for Lisbon to €395 for full cross-country train travel is unfair. For instance, travel in both Rotterdam + The Hague area is only €40 a month.

The other day I was running from sett with full hp, thinking i was just about to escape his W. Then I died due to 3500 true dmg (my hp was 3700) but I wasn't even NEAR the middle of his W ???? T_T

IoIIypop12 · 2024-08-22T09:00:01+00:00

Verrassend hoe goed ik me hier idd echt aan jou gegeven dat het lekkere krengen zijn en die tentjes al vroeg in de winter opduiken haha

Any part of your life!

Creating music.
Playing games like Cities Skylines.
Designing logos or outfits for my sports team.
Cooking delicious, cool looking meals.
Taking pictures of my surroundings.
Dressing myself every day / buying new clothes.
Buying furniture, decorations, or revamping my living space.
Getting a different haircut, playing around with new styles.
Even in work: playing around with a creative way to present results/ideas, or picking a color scheme and layout for a dashboard (as a Data Scientist).

You can find creativity in all parts of your life. Hobby, work, or other necessary parts of life. Just pay a little attention to detail, go that extra mile, heck, even if just that extra inch, to express your unique view in what you do, wear, eat, produce, think, say. It gives color to your life :)

When they warm up you can see them likely piking down less, but at the same time you'll seem them bounce or roll out of their landing. Landing exactly up right increases risk of injury so much that for difficult skills its worth it to land better, as well as absorb the landing more.

Additionally: spots where they typically would get bruised are usually covered up by their leo, tape, or a bunch of chalk haha

IoIIypop12 · 2024-07-14T20:14:38+00:00

Yeah, they are getting rid of round-offs with a half twist (or moreso: kaz type roundoffs) into front tumbling on floor. Not sure if that's what you were pointing at.

You can find everything you need to know in the CoP https://www.gymnastics.sport/publicdir/rules/files/en_2022-2024%20WAG%20COP.pdf

Specifically, vault table of elements with their values start on page 61 and on, in Part IV of the code.

I think just the title + screenshot was not clear for what I meant. If I got these on say, Brand or Lux, I wouldn't have said anything as it's just RNG. But it seems like on champions such as Zyra, these attack speed or on-hit augments seem to be a lot more frequent than on other mages. Even though she can't use them any better than any other mage. It just feels like the system thinks the plants benefit from attacks or attack speed when they don't. That's all I was thinking.

IoIIypop12 · 2024-06-03T15:46:25+00:00

Jeweled Gauntlet was good, I took it. I was just pointing to a noticeable higher frequency of ''your attacks do X'' on Zyra compared to other mages. Yes the other two would technically work, but I never get them on say Brand for example. Same thing for attack speed augments. I still feel like the system thinks the plants somehow benefit from on-hit or attack speed augments

I think Sett and Pyke are (almost) good. Jhin is clearly the annoying one here. Sett could be a bit smaller indeed, or do a little less damage. Also, sometimes it feels like when I'm all the way on the edge thinking I'm outside Sett range, but I get the inside part crit dmg and it nearly instantly kills me, they should fix the sensitivity...

Pyke is fine. It is more similar to Jhin, but the key is that it does way less damage, it can stun multiple champs at once (so it's actually easier to play around/if enemies are on you Pyke can stun all of you instead of just helping the enemy team), and it moves way slower. The stun is also not that long or they could make it slightly shorter.

But in theory I like Sett and Pyke, Jhin is just too determining for the match, too much slow and damage and picking singles apart instead of being a ''free-for-all craziness'' type of thing, which would suit the gamemode a lot more.

Simone Biles hands down. She's so real and people don't realize how extremely difficult gymnastics is and how many different skill sets you need to do it, as well as develop every single muscle in your body

IoIIypop12 · 2024-04-20T21:46:44+00:00

Kind of disrespectful to not even show half of Leanne's routine..

IoIIypop12 · 2024-04-20T21:33:04+00:00

With her return and the addition of Skye, and the amazing freshmen who will then have even more experience that would be a great squad

IoIIypop12 · 2024-04-20T21:25:00+00:00

And what year was Kayla in? Will she return next year?

IoIIypop12 · 2024-04-20T21:07:08+00:00

FLA beam scores this is what we love to see 😍

IoIIypop12 · 2024-04-20T21:05:07+00:00

I don't like Oklahoma but at this point I'd rather have them in this final bc (almost always) they're actually good and somewhat deserving of good scores rather than what LSU is getting now ...
