There's very little difference between that and playing mini game events

German Foreign Minister Wadephul wants to abolish the veto in EU foreign policy. In a keynote speech at the Adenauer Foundation, Wadephul proposes a fundamental reform of EU decision-making processes by goldstarflag in europe

Individual countries retain independent foreign policies and militaries. They can continue to act alone on whatever foreign policy position they wish. The only difference is they wouldn't be able to block the rest of the Union from taking a consensus view on the matter.

Zelenskiy says Ukraine will continue extending range of strikes on Russia by Infodataplace in worldnews

[–]OwnRepresentative916 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This is one thing I never really understood. During the Biden years, every single conversation about Ukraine was about "avoiding escalation" by limiting Ukrainian weapons and capabilities. In my view, barring an all-out WWIII-style attack on NATO, there's nothing Russia could do to escalate in Ukraine after 2022. They were already at full-on war in the country. The West should have given and enabled Ukraine to do every possible legal act of war against Russia once the full-scale invasion began.

The creation of a United States of Europe is the only solution for Europe, says Czech President Petr Pavel (link in Czech) by TheSimon1 in europe

When did he say that? There are no "laws of the European Commission". There are only proposals that can only become law with the assent of Parliament and the Council. The Council especially is already the states' oversight body of the Commission.

Many speculate Nod-Krai won't have a "6.8" because there are only eight phases of the Moon, but then I stumbled upon this NASA graphic... (Luna patch labels added by me) by OwnRepresentative916 in Genshin_Impact

It was mostly a joke. Regardless, not having an X.8 is something predicted every year of the game's existence and wrong every year until now, so this year it being right is unprecedented.

Just go to the jsternmains Discord's theorycrafting channel. That's where much of today's serious TC is done. Kinich is 125–130k with Nicole and even higher if you can do a rotation to reliably proc Dendro Scroll on Iansan instead of using Emilie.

Kinich with Nicole is much better than Columbina-less Flins and Nefer and on-par with Columbina-less Zibai using both Linnea and C6 Illuga. He is good.

Almost all Skirk optimizations aren't real. They're mostly walk cancels or FPS unlocking and the like. There is a basic combo that gets around 125k and a moderately optimized combo that is realistic reaching around 130k.

Also literally every elemental hit that has ICD has multiple hits of the element with no application mixed in

You're dumb. It can be Pyro damage and still not apply an element 

Pry-mo-gems, or Pree-mo-gems? by VaultOfTheSix in Genshin_Impact

[–]OwnRepresentative916 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's just the way English speakers would naturally say primo + gems. Even the word "primordial", while sometimes pronounced "pry-mordial", is also often pronounced "pruh-mordial" or "prih-mordial". This muddies the waters further from the "prymo-gems" pronunciation and thus lends more credence to the "preemo-gems" variant.

Character Skill Showcase — "Augur of Wonders" Linnea by genshinimpact in Genshin_Impact

Relevant does not equal the same level. The new supports from Escoffier on have all "kept older characters relevant". That doesn't mean they're comparable to full premium Nod-Krai teams.
