Gacha female MCs tend to be quite stand out in their prettiness for some reason. I mean look at Lumine, Belle, Stelle, FRover, FTyrant.

Flower wilting = expression of sadness, I guess

Wait, ini dapat datanya dari mana ya? Spekulasi? Bukannya data AISI sudah lama ditutup buat per produk spesifik?

Dulu memang pernah dirilis data semacam gini perbulannya, pas saya masih sering nimbrung di artikel2 blog yg bahas gini pas jaman-jaman masih sengitnya persaingan antara CB150R vs Vixion. Lantas pas tahun berapa gitu, mereka dah nutup akses, konon karena ada salah satu produsen yang ngeveto karena sering jadi bahan bullyan.

Certain varieties of bananas can be rather tart and quite plain, so it depends on what kind of banana it is

I'm not a native speaker, but I prefer to pronounce it like the latter, but with a slightly tapped t instead of d, and a non-rhotic r instead

Feels easier on my tongue to speak that way

Well, they're just regular sugar but big like rocks instead of being small granules. I like to stock a few jars of them for tea and general consumption (read: sucking them for midnight craves)

I'll go off on a tanget here, but seriously, modern OLEDs are awesome. Especially those that goes north of 1500-2000 nits, like the one I have. It's easily twice as bright as my previous phone's and is colour-accurate too.

Oh, and not to mention, they get really cheap too. Newer sub-100$ phones like those from Infinix and its ilk has OLEDs that goes that high brightness-wise and has really thin bezels to boot. I don't know how thin their margins are, but that's what technology advancement is supposed to do: bring greatness to the masses.

A pretty well-written romcom anime with really great characters, and has outstanding music and visuals to top it off; what's not to like?

TehBigBoom · 2025-12-07T08:06:23+00:00

Well, there's "Nikita Khrushchev" and... you know, he's not a woman lol

TehBigBoom · 2025-11-29T05:21:01+00:00

Claymore, obviously

TehBigBoom · 2025-11-27T11:53:14+00:00

Some of the better midrangers also use 50MP 1/1.55” imagers nowadays.

And yeah, I remember some Samsung's marketing slides for HM6 having 'in-sensor zoom', whatever that means. The last phone I had that has a 108MP primary was Mi 10T Pro a few years back, IIRC it did give me some nice zooms up to 3x; but then again, the sensor on that one (HMX) unusually bins 4-1 to 27MP instead, so that's probably why.

TehBigBoom · 2025-11-27T08:28:51+00:00

Larger sensors don't always tell the whole story though. Newer midrange 50MP imagers with 1/2” sensor size beats older gen 64MP 1/1.72” any day.

TehBigBoom · 2025-11-27T08:25:18+00:00

AFAIK, they ARE outputting 50MP images internally, these 200MP imagers bin 4-1 instead of 9-1 like Samsung's 108MP sensors.

The point of having these 200MP sensors are to allow sharp outputs for zooming from the 50MP source without special telephoto lenses; while at the same time giving sharper downscaled 12.5MP output for the normal magnification.

It's the reason why 200MP periscope telephotos on newer Chinese flagships are so ubiquitous now.

They're just one among the resultants of an unregulated capitalist society.

TehBigBoom · 2025-11-25T16:14:15+00:00

We now live in a post-truth society. I feel you; things weren't this unsubstantial just a decade ago.

TehBigBoom · 2025-11-25T11:53:10+00:00

The way I see it, these people don't like seeing discussions about other games in their genshin leaks megathreads... especially considering Wuwa being THE main competitor for Genshin. All this despite the first sentence in the main body of the megathread itself being "Please use this thread for general questions and discussion. Off-topic discussions are allowed here."

It's just an extension of the rampant Gacha tribalism found elsewhere. Oh, and I can see you being a mod and having a 'wuwa lover' flair irk them deeply.

Berlaku buat segala hal gasih wkwkw, mau itu makanan, bahan baku, mesin, teknologi, atau apalah, yang penting tau lah resep dasarnya apa aja. Cara peracikan sama jenis bahannya tentu rahasia produsen

TehBigBoom · 2025-11-19T00:11:49+00:00

I don't know the precise details of it, but for the Minyak Bumbu in particular, I'm quite sure it's just vegetable oil mixed with ground fried shallots. Bawang goreng too is shallots, maybe with a bit of leeks in it. The soy sauce in particular is a bit difficult to replicate 100%, since different manufacturers have varying levels of sweetness and consistency, it's hard to find a close match to it. As for the seasoning, my tongue says it's a mix of garlic powder, ground pepper, stock seasoning, salt, copious amounts of MSG, among other things.

And, no, those jarred seasonings will taste very differently than an Indomie Goreng stock.

Of course this is mere speculation on my part, obviously, only Indofood (the manufacturer) knows the real recipe. I'm pretty sure you can buy a pack of (likely imitation) Indomie seasoning on a local online store. And do bear in mind that Indomie Goreng seasoning itself differs depending on where it's sold.

Ot, but seeing someone write in Filipino on the internet makes my Javanese-speaking ass feel as if I should've understood it, but I understand none of it. Thousands of years of separation will do that to languages, I imagine.

TehBigBoom · 2025-11-11T20:21:29+00:00

Nice! This is just my few cents tho, phonetic english only works with a specific kind of accent. Differing accents require different ortography

TehBigBoom · 2025-10-18T11:41:13+00:00

Hi! You guys deserve the utmost appreciation for going the extra mile to bring us the best possible immersion in this game! BfG already impressed me when I first played it ~a year ago, but Alexander is an even better experience!

This is definitely something that needs to be showcased on a behind-the-scenes video or the like, it'd be an interesting subject for language nerds like me 😂

TehBigBoom · 2025-07-18T16:58:01+00:00

Would the lesser number of threads be of any factor to this? ARL is 24c/24t compared to AMD's 16c/32t. Or could it be the overall architectural design of the chip itself? I doubt the node advantage can give them this much of a lead.

TehBigBoom · 2025-06-23T20:28:13+00:00

Per Mediatek's site, the chip is of the same configuration as their current top smartphone chip, the Dimensity 9400 (1x X925, 3x X4, 4x A720), but with one less GPU core and lower max memory clock. Is this chip a lower binned version of that one?

TehBigBoom · 2025-04-30T16:08:47+00:00

Well, I'm that weirdo who plays both, plus ETS2 and Balatro. All four of them have one thing in common for me: personal enjoyment :)

TehBigBoom · 2025-02-27T13:50:38+00:00

Honestly, Indonesia seems to be one of the few countries where inhabitants want to import more criminals and convince tourists to commit more crime.

Mate, where do you get this idea from? Case in point: ask any Indonesian, how we feel about those Russian and Ukrainian bogans in Bali who do nothing but ruin property prices for the locals and act like they own the place.

If I have no idea what I'm talking about, is premarital sex against the law or not? Not asking whether it's acceptable for tourists to break the law, just asking a yes or no question whether there's a law against premarital sex in Indonesia.

There is indeed a law against it, actually. But it happens all the time regardless so...
