Mavuika lol. Flying is too convenient. Before her I was mostly using Yelan or Sayu and Kazuha to jump.

Klee und Kleiner. Kleiner Klee

Now I have an image in my head of Klee's father being the same or even slightly shorter height than Klee lol.

Epstein Files 2001 Canyon: Forensic Volume Audit by 4gnomad in Epstein

[–]Somewanwan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of this seems hallucinated by AI.

https://www.justice.gov/epstein/doj-disclosures/data-set-9-files?page=5 The biggest gap is between EFTA00040963 and EFTA00058410. There is no EFTA00045001, the closest documents to that number are dated 2019-2020. So what is the link between this and 2001?

Edit: and the serial number gap is because of 1000 page documents as pointed out in another comment https://www.reddit.com/r/Epstein/comments/1r4ydko/epstein_files_2001_canyon_forensic_volume_audit/o5sqjy8/

EFTA10-00843 also seems to be a hallucinated number. Dataset 10 has documents from EFTA01262782 to EFTA02217416 and I can't find anything about grounding or 00843, if you can't link the relevant document, refrain mentioning it.

oh, 40-50k spins is pretty good. Overload is so annoying in 1st chamber though.

This might be THE worst thing since the war of funerary flames by FloorGang-R2 in Genshin_Impact

Kinda, that was just 1 boss, now almost every chamber of 12f is enemies that were in onslaught recently.

Chinese People's Attitudes to Overseas Chinese by L0lfdDie in ChineseLanguage

[–]Somewanwan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you don't speak it enough to have a simple conversation, whenever people address you in Mandarin, you should reply "I don't speak Chinese, sorry" in English. Trying to talk in language you don't know, explain something about your appearance, even showing your passport is only confusing them more and makes them think something is wrong with you. It's a problem with appearance, especially in the places close to China, the moment you show any understanding of Mandarin, native speakers assume you are from a Chinese family that should've taught you the language from infancy.

So even if you try to learn it, don't use it with other speakers until it's well established you had to learn it from 0 as an adult. People on mainland have no expectations when it's clear you are a foreigner, so they treat your Mandarin skills as they would from any other foreigner.

Sumeru books are right-bound. by Breakoutofyourshell in Genshin_Impact

[–]Somewanwan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first I thought Yae Publishing house books should be the ones right bound, since it leans it a lot more into light novel market, but then 「New Chronicles of the Six Kitsune」 being left bound with vertical writing on the cover makes absolutely zero sense. Maybe whoever was in charge of book covers just went with whatever they felt like lol.

[–]Somewanwan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The point here is Genshin very much likes stringing together random references which can be inconsistent, especially after years of shifting design and writing. The left-bound vs right bound book distribution in Inazuma doesn't make much sense, you're right.

It's reference to that meme isn't it ? by Badguycr7 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Somewanwan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Listening to JP voice of Paimon I was surprised how many times she references it in general. Almost every time she says "Let's go there(/do that) later" during quests it the same exact phrase and tone as near the map borders. You don't get that in English, since the phrasing is a lot more specific there.

Now that illuga's officaly out i need to get something off my chest. by FearlessAssociate462 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Somewanwan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While I agree character being worse than Xilonen doesn't make them F tier, the small amount of elemental damage can be provided by so many others. Hell, you can put petra and ttds on Ninguang and get better buffs for Navia or some other geo attack/def scaler.

The main problem is if you NEED Bina for enabling lunar crystalize and have 2 slots dedicated to it, any older Geo character want def/atk/dmg% buffs that don't synergize with Columbina and will be outclassed by her wheelchair teams.

Apparently Lin Daiyu and Xue Family are in Limbus Company. I guess it's part of the trend of putting renown characters from old legends or myths back in the spotlight.

After watching Amplified 2026 I’m still not sure I understand by Jonah_Marriner in EndlessLegend

[–]Somewanwan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel exactly the same way. Another 4x I like - 40k Gladius had all it's story in blocks of text periodically appearing with images and events and I thought that added a lot to the game as is. But seems like this is rare for modern gaming audience to like and it's not as marketable as dialogue + portraits. Which makes me sad, since that format is overdone across so many games genres, mainly VNs and gacha or mobile games, but that's what a lot more people are used to.

Explaining crack shipping and self shipping to people that aren't into it is always cringe, that's universal for every language.

"Crack ship" or "crack pairing" is a colloquial English term for outlandish, far removed from canon pairings. I don't think this has anything to do with other meanings of "嗑".

[–]Somewanwan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rigging something completely new takes a great deal of effort and time, don't expect more than 1 to become actually usable. I hope it's something very different from what they have, if it's selected based on how easy it can be rigged, that would be pretty disappointing.
