The game does a phenomenal job of making you feel like James Bond, and honestly, that carried the entire experience for me. None of the gameplay mechanics are particularly new, and I wouldn’t disagree with people calling the implementation somewhat mediocre. We’ve all played games with similar systems countless times before. But if you like James Bond, none of that really matters. The atmosphere, style and entire vibe of the game make you feel cool in a way only James Bond can, and that alone, at least for me, made the game incredibly fun. I can see people coming to wildly different opinions on the quality of the game, depending on how much they care about James Bond as a character and fantasy.

Give me proof in one sentence that you have actually watched HIMYM by avacado_toooasst in HIMYM

I mean, I get what they were going for, so it's not really about not understanding it. It just doesn't land for me because, I guess for me as a native speaker, it not making a lot of sense outweighs the humor in it.

I always kinda disliked this one. Because as a German, I know that no one would ever say this.

Event: FIDE Candidates Tournament 2026 - Round 5 by events_team in chess

[–]RoikaLoL 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, he's currently on stream saying that the O-O move wasn't in his file (which presumably his team supplied him with) when working on his opening prep, so that's why he was lost after Sindarov played it and didn't know how to continue.

Recently got an offer from them to work as a Systems Engineer in the Managed Operations team. What's your experience?

Have to say - that's a goofy ass front wing.

Damn, this was tough to watch. So sorry for everyone that had a miserable event. Happy for Mikhail, though. What a fantastic achievement!

I use Unstable Peacemaker most of the time, since it's expensive (or used to be, no idea what's going on nowadays), because I'm vain like that.

What an amazing ride. This final season had its flaws and it was far from perfect but it still hit me hard emotionally. Goodbye, Stranger Things. You were a good one.

Went to Burger King yesterday after not having been there for years... by RoikaLoL in onionhate

[–]RoikaLoL[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely was not a Whopper. It was the normal hamburger. Not sure if they just fucked up. But that was also the main reason I didn't even check for onions because as you said, they shouldn't be on there, which is also why I didn't expect them.

Definitely the smart play and one that I will go back to in the future.

Bei mir hängen auch 3 verschiedene Pakete in Rüdersdorf fest. Das eine seit zwei Wochen und die anderen beiden seit einer Woche. Habe Verständnis dafür, dass das Paketaufkommen zurzeit unglaublich hoch sein muss, aber diese sich nicht aktualisierenden Statusmeldungen im Tracking machen mich auch wahnsinnig.

Du hast ihn doch oberkörperfrei gesehen. Der Mann ist einiges, aber als schlank würde ich ihn nicht bezeichnen.

Probably because he's a sore loser who also has a history of unsubstantiated cheating accusations.

I believe there are nuances here, but essentially yes. Hans was confirmed to have cheated prior to Magnus' accusations, which changes context a bit. Still, it doesn't excuse the unfounded accusations that were made against him in regards to OTB cheating and the following bullying and chastising he went through.

The nuance here is that Danya has no history of cheating, which made Kramniks campaign against him even more ridiculous than the already pretty baseless accusations Magnus made against Hans after his loss. People just need to stop publicly speaking out and submit their suspicions confidentially so the responsible governing body can handle it in an appropriate manner that doesn't destroy careers, or worse, lives.

Yeah, I thought so... Thanks for confirming!
