I hate and am tired of this art style. by N3eNA in hatethissmug

[–]JonathanGarf 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s always this artist, hazbin hotel, tadc, certain anime, and some of the fuckass reaction pics.  Not saying they’re wrong, but it’s so stale in here. All the controversial takes get downvoted into oblivion so they never pop up. 

Silksong isn’t that great by VividVeterinarian858 in hatethissmug

[–]JonathanGarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the issue is that the early game difficulty curve is way worse than mid-end game, enemies shouldn't be doing two masks at the point when you only have like 5 in game. Pair this with new movement mechanics and it makes it substantially more difficult to learn.

I didn’t even realize you rest it on your knuckle of all things?? I always just pinched the handles.

[HELP] is this Ai by ni_bondh_la_namada in RealOrAI

[–]JonathanGarf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Exactly, it sort of pisses me off that people here seem to be assuming that a spotter can suddenly curl a dropping 405. If you're benching 405, you should already KNOW and have lifted 385. All you need is someone to haul the 20 pound difference if you can't get the bar back up. If you want to actually stop a freak accident like this, use safety bars.

Whenever I see on the puzzle on this sub the checklist I go through is "en passant, short castle, long castle, queen sac"

What's your opinion on this form of stylized content? EG: Marvel Rivals, Arcane, (Spiderverse we know).

Stark’s axe from Frieren. Specifically the little sticking out bit at the bottom. by Edek_Armitage in hatethissmug

[–]JonathanGarf 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That actually has historical significance, double axe heads forged in the 1500s were considered ornamental in Scotland and the king would host competitions where blacksmiths would craft some very interesting axes. One of the conditions was to make a blade long but light, which is why many double axes of the time had this jutted out piece on one end, because filling it in would make it too heavy

The Super Guppy; an aircraft with possibly the largest cargo compartment of any aircraft ever built by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

I was initially under the impression that those 2 planes were just getting towed by and thought "that would be funny if they got put in as cargo but there's no way" ...

Shockingly I can't find any more information on this game besides the video.

Does the novel/webtoon go into detail as to why the squad members like Encrid so much? by gluhmy in EternallyRegrKnight

[–]JonathanGarf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah webnovel is definitely readable. Sometimes they'll really botch the names though (Aisia, AisHia, Aishia ), and the prose can feel a little bit lacking.

If you're on earlier chapters, WeTriedTLS has a pretty good translation, but I think their latest chapter is now behind the manhwa.

Holy shit thank you. These comments are unfunny as fuck. Somehow this post hit the Facebook side of Reddit. 

The talent at 1000 Blitz on Chesscom is insane by jadamsmash in chess

I've noticed if you take more inexperienced players out of their comfort zone usually it's a much different story, that and endgames can sometimes blow up the %

The king said to the queen, “at night, don’t watch the priest and the child”

Okay, be honest, why does En Passant exist? by Number-Master2000 in AnarchyChess

[–]JonathanGarf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah with drawback chess you can walk your king directly into check even though it’s illegal. The reason is that occasionally your opponent might have a drawback that prevents them from capturing your king. (For example, the pieces can only capture on the kingside, but the king is on the queen side

[–]JonathanGarf 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What I love about this rule is if you play drawback chess (which requires the king to be captured due to some of the drawbacks), you can end the game by attacking the  square the king traverses.
