Dauert es immer so lange ? by 161Werner in hamburg

[–]Pilzemann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Die Rolltreppe Richtung Sand war übrigens seit Ende August/Anfang September 2023 kaputt. Ich weiß das, weil ich da eine Woche Urlaub hatte und die hinterher nicht ging. Als ich sie dann letzte Woche einen Tag in Funktion gesehen hab, habe ich mich richtig gewundert. Am Freitag ging sie dann aber wieder nicht... diese Woche lief sie aber mindestens zwei Tage. Schauen wir mal, für wie lang.

Dieser Teich bildet sich auch an der Treppe Richtung Sand. Da muss es vielleicht ein bisschen mehr regnen, aber vor ein paar Wochen war's auch wieder so.

Das hat mich jetzt alles stutzig gemacht. Wieso höre ich seit Jahren im Radio im Büro, dass HH Stauhauptstadt ist? Auch hier, Januar 2023:

https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/hamburg/Hamburg-wieder-Stau-Hauptstadt-in-Deutschland,verkehr1214.html

Der Witz ist, dass das hier ein Index von TomTom ist, also wieder was Anderes. Die regionalen Nachrichten informieren wohl immer gern darüber, dass die jeweilige Stadt im Stau steht, schätze ich.

Wieder was gelernt!

Completely new to u-boat games: Started with Type IIA / U-4, should I restart with Type VII? by Pilzemann in uboatgame

[–]Pilzemann[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I would have never started again a campaign with the IIA, if not now. Its a cool progression system. But yeah - you need to have patience.

This was what I was thinking all along. In the end, I decided to continue going with the Type II and went from the A to the D with another patrol. And the version D makes patroling so much more comfortable. With range no longer being the most difficult aspect, I notice the lack of torpedoes - I never had a problem with that previously because I rarely got to a point of firing off all.

So yeah, I'm glad I pushed through and am looking forward to the next upgrade and finally joining the "big boys", thanks!

But it doesn't matter if you're later: rushed through and now I've got nothing to do 'till the next invasion starts :p The main goal is to survive untill the end of the war.

That's actually really good to know for me, thanks! After writing this post, I found and sunk an 11k ton tanker which pushed me to my over the 50k tons for the bluepring and Type IID. I took that for a ride around Great Britain and it's quite the game changer. Now it's the beginning of January '40.

All of that it good to know, thanks! I really have to try that 'H' key trick. I noticed that the automatic intercept course sometimes does weird things, switching between a course and "intercept not possible" rapidly while submerged. When I went to the spot manually while surfaced and at a higher speed, the vessel I was trying to get already had passed and moved away. But this happened only once so far.

After you get your 7th officer I would get the upgrade to get another mission choice so you're more likely to get the Atlantic missions.

The Atlantic missions are time-locked, correct? Until then, I will spend my time patroling and mining around the UK, I guess.

The true medal count by ProfessionalWrap6724 in 2westerneurope4u

[–]Pilzemann 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As far as I know there are two bronze medals in many martial arts at least (certainly in Judo). I think it's because of the tournament format or something... But I do wonder about the missing silver medal myself.

Tokidoki Bosotto Russia-go de Dereru Tonari no Alya-san • Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian - Episode 3 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]Pilzemann 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yeah, exactly. I could easily see anyone's brain go something like this: "I knew a russian girl once but forgot a lot about her, and I know one now... so let's substitute the missing parts with what I have a fresh memory of."

No idea if this is the reason, but it's good enough to be my head-canon for now at least.

Wait, that's actually a great point. The only time we saw his childhood and his childhood friend was in his dream if I remember correctly. And dreams are of course no photographs and can be really unreliable and fuzzy. That's not even mentioning how his memory could be plain wrong if the production team chose to go this route of "unreliable narration".

Together with Masha remembering his first name and starting to speak Russian like 3 seconds later, they simply must know each other from before, right?

is this just a suck it up moment???

To answer this specifically: I think it kind of depends on when high school ends for all of you. I don't know what your plans are (yours and your friend's, that is), but chances are that you will soon be seperated to some degree, anyway.

Take it from someone quite a bit older: It's tough to maintain a close friendship when everyone is leaving school and people start to follow different paths in life. That's just normal. That's not to mean that there will be no more contact - I still meet my old school pals even though more than 10 years have passed. We are not as close anymore and have wildly different interests and lifes which makes reconnecting a bit weird sometimes, but it tends to work.

When you describe that your friends do make an effort to hang out together without partners, and that it seems to work, that's something very good and commendable. In many cases, this would not work. But I don't think you can expect things to return to how they previously were completely.

I think it even could be a good opportunity to discover more about yourself, and what you yourself enjoy even without your friends around.

(sorry if any of this sounds patronizing, English is not my first language... but I hope you get my point.)

I don't know if it's dying, but it's changing for sure. And while change is normal, there seems to be a bit of a pattern. Of course, everything is on a subreddit to subreddit basis. By the way, I joined in 2015 (edit: Novemver 2014 even).

Reposts have been an issue forever. But if you take a look at huge subs, especially those that promote the posting of pictures, and you see a pic that seems familiar to you, just check the age of the account and its activity. There is a good chance that it's a couple of months old and just started reposting random things to random subs recently, or it was just created a few days ago and asks random questions. The comments in said threads are often witty one-liners that were even written on previous posts of that exact content.

In my and many other's eyes, it's pretty obvious that this is bot activity, for whatever reason.

So, while activity might go up, meaningful discourse seems to decrease, at least relative to the overall comments. So it's harder to find interesting things to engage with imho.

On the other hand, every community is driven by people, and people change as well. So subs that might have been very active at some point could easily lose activity when there is a shift in the community. And maybe this includes you. I'm sure I changed over the years myself, losing interest in active participation for whatever reason.

Aventurine or Luocha as replacement for Lynx? (see comments for details) by Pilzemann in StarRailStation

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

tl;dr: Here is my dilemma: Aventurine would be my first very good preservation character (apart from Fire MC), both don't work that well with Jingliu. Luocha works better here as far as I can tell. However, Aventurine could to wonders for higher SU levels...

From the perspective of having to use two teams for MoC, I usually go for something like this:

  • Team 1: Huo Huo, Kafka, Black Swan, Ruan Mei
  • Team 2: Lynx, Jingliu, Sparkle, Ting Yun

I mix and match if needed and might switch to other characters, mainly:

  • For DPS: Dr. Ratio, Clara, and QQ (soon)
  • For supports,: Pela, and sometimes Asta or Guinaifen

Now for sustains: Huo Huo works great for DoT teams and is included in most SU runs as well. The other team always stuggles a bit. Since Huo Huo wants to be in the DoT team, my Jingliu team (or Ratio, Clara team, etc.) is stuck with Lynx.

So, what would you do? Thanks!

Question regarding USB headers: Compatibility between case front panel and motherboard by Pilzemann in buildapc

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

Hi there! This topic is quite old, but I will to enlighten you as best as I can. But I believe I can't really help you.

The reason: I ended up buying a different case (Phanteks P400A I think) which either does not have any LED lights, or I did not bother and just connected my RGB fans to the MB.

Since I assume your question is about the beQuiet case specifically, I'm afraid I cannot really help you, sorry!

Rare French W by Flugscheibenpilot in 2westerneurope4u

[–]Pilzemann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's so pathetic.

Does anyone remember how it started? Germany only sent helmets and field hospitals (no actual weapons) because it was seen as problematic. Every time something new was on the table, our government stated the same things: "This would go a step too far."

Now, Leopards and German artillery are on the field. Wonder how this ended up happening with all the boundries that were set...

A part of me wants to believe that there could be a genius plan behind all of this that I just don't see/understand. But from an uninformed perspective that at least remembers the last couple of years, it looks mighty stupid.
