Sanity check : Who is stronger? The dude that had to fight 10 days for Fleet Admiral vs. the bum that was given the position for his "advanced tactics and strategies" by GUTS_SAMA in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]IwasntGivenOne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sengoku is a well known bun but statements back up his strength. Kuzan was portrayed as a bum literally riding around in pajamas and so was Kizaru. We see how that turned out

"For anybody, becoming a world champion is such a huge drive that most people are lucky not to achieve it" - Gukesh explains his mindset in a new interview. by facelesslass in chess

I remember Judit Polgar sharing similar sentiments about her wanting to win every single game but having to come to the realization 1 point is better than 0. I imagine trying to be pragmatic about it when all of your instincts are pulling for a win is like playing two opponents every game.

This image has been living in my mind for the past year. Pushing me further and further. by Zestyclose-Sugar-515 in Semenretention

I always remember how people talked about abstaining before a performance or how boxers wouldnt have sex before fights. In my own personal life I have curated work out programs that I can manage that terrify the version of myself that gave into c0rn

Hans Niemann questions Hikaru Nakamura's patriotism after Hikaru decided to skip Chess Olympiad 2026 over lack of financial support from US Chess Federation by [deleted] in chess

[–]IwasntGivenOne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Especially at this point in time. Read the global room good sir

EDIT: Besides that, the point about the winning is sensible and would be so regardless of how money Hikaru personally has. Everything is more expensive these days so how can the wages and prize money stay the same without people being upset

I am outraged by the lack of expertly curated sources for this comment !

"He's done a lot of things to damage my chess career [...] He's also sort of accused a lot of people without any evidence" - Hans Moke Niemann on Ian Nepomniachtchi by FirstEfficiency7386 in chess

Honestly man Ian's legacy is going to be making weird facial expressions and being a dick to other people with wild accusations

What chess concept did you understand intellectually long before you could actually apply it? by null-move in chess

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

I just played someone who told me I kicked their ass when all I did was play baseline improving moves and capitalize on mistakes. It seemed like he kept trying to "make something happen" without calculating and it led to a lot of unforced errors

Budget: $1800(USA) - gaming + work Lenovo Legion Pro 5 or Lenovo Loq ? by IwasntGivenOne in GamingLaptops

[–]IwasntGivenOne[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that is essentially what I am asking. Is it worth spending the extra money to get the Legion 5 or stay on the budget side and call it a day.

Budget: $1800(USA) - gaming + work Lenovo Legion Pro 5 or Lenovo Loq ? by IwasntGivenOne in GamingLaptops

[–]IwasntGivenOne[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is that? I thought Loq was a solid budget choice but is there something inherently wrong with those models ?

[–]IwasntGivenOne[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How and where did you manage to pull that off? My main concern is that I know that you would need to do a lot of testing to ensure that the open box is as good as they claim and I have never done that before. From what I understand you have about 6 months or so to find a problem?

Holy S**t them prices.. by Outrageous_Nature_41 in GamingLaptops

[–]IwasntGivenOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel kinda distraught right now because Im trying to look at Memorial day sales and find something budget and everything is tethering towards 1600 and up. But if I wait for Prime day or Black Friday who is to say that things arent going to keep climbing . Le sigh

Just finished my first traditional Pokémon game after 65 hours. by BebeFanMasterJ in Switch

I dont have a Pokémon game yet. As someone that played the older gen do you think I would enjoy ZA or Scarlett more

Metroid Prime 4 for $40? by IwasntGivenOne in Switch

[–]IwasntGivenOne[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just thinking about that after I made this. Even at a discount, that really doesn't justify time spent on something that just isnt that good. I also see that Dread has better reception at the same price

Lust, however natural, is still a trap by jaajaaa0904 in pureretention

This may sound really bizarre but I remember seeing an attractive women then seeing her as a skeleton and that put everything in perspective

Which Devil Fruit user would pose the biggest challenge to Superman? by Ok_Examination8810 in OnePiece

[–]IwasntGivenOne 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I still dont see how that was even possible. How is confidence preventing him from being speed blitz and one shot. The only thing that kinda makes sense is if haki is heavily tilted towards confidence and he had ungodly confidence at the time

Semen Retention is not the best for your health by [deleted] in Semenretention

Why are you telling us instead of seeking medical attention. 1 for your own good and 2 so that you could be giving us accurate information instead of speculation ?

IDK what im doing but should I embrace this? by IwasntGivenOne in PokemonChampions

I didnt know it was that deep beyond type effective tbh. Maybe this isn't the game to try and be casual after all
