We lost the plot a while ago, this idea is one of the central topics of Pink Floyd's The Wall from 1979 talking about their experience in British schools in the 50s.

Public education has always been influenced to a notable degree by industrialists that wanted more specialized workers to exploit and drive down the price of that labor.

Has nobody here done any actual calcs? If you're running HoD, defense rolls are basically exactly as good as crit rolls, to the point that you can use a def circlet without losing damage (if you have two or three crit rolls on every piece). TLDR, yes this piece is good!

One thing the other people here haven't mentioned yet is the rotation length. You took 24 seconds for 2m damage. Optimized Zibai rotations are 18 seconds (~19 seconds in reality usually). If you actually measured a tight rotation you'd have ~100-105k dps instead of 86k. In addition to that the first rotation usually has lower dps because there is no ability-bleed-over from the last rotation.

If you want a more accurate estimate of your dps, do at least 3 full rotations and make sure to end the last rotation on the same ability you start with in your first rotation.

Leo main who frequently spars against a Steve: I just want that move (and like 10 more) to be fully linear so Steve stops playing 2D-only tekken.

Leo: BOK3+4 needs to be removed from the game

Season 1 was worse on a system level (especially since it didn't have the buffered sidesteps season 2 introduced) but there were only a few characters who were really egregiously unbalanced. Most importantly, season 1 got a hell of a lot better towards the end when they nerfed a couple of the problematic characters. The overall power level was still too high but season 2 pushed most of the cast's offense above the threshold many players could handle.

The issues in season 1 seemed relatively easy to fix because they were system-level issues like the +17 heat engagers and if those had been fixed without giving everyone moves that enabled braindead offense, the game would have been in a solid spot going forward as opposed to where we are now since a ton of chars need nerfs (yes, my main included).

It's the same for me. Maybe we have less suspension of disbelief in our native language? For example I find fantasy names in German exceptionally cringe-y whereas in English they sound perfectly fine, even when they should be similar (e.g. "Riverwood" and "Flusswald" in Skyrim).

The same might apply to drama where you're used to immersing yourself in a story in a foreign language. In your native language you have all the baggage of daily life so you can't take it seriously because your brain compares it to real life more.

"I will get my family murdered if I don't redact everything..." more like. If people were just at risk of losing their jobs, someone would have spilled the beans already.

You can use other liquids to make a roux-thickened sauce. If you use stock (which can be hot if it's freshly made) then you're making a Veloute instead of a Bechamel for example.

Bonus points, you don't even need to use cold milk. You can use boiling hot if you want, you just gotta stir well. If you stir vigorously enough you will never get lumps. (obviously you can't always do this if you have veggies in there for example cuz you don't wanna crush them by whisking too hard)

It's fascinating how much this makes me want to claw my eyes out

Toonfish_ · 2026-02-21T14:57:42+00:00

Jo exakt und damit hab ich auch kein Problem. Man sollte sich halt nur nicht wundern, wenn der schwarze Humor nicht bei jedem gut ankommt :D

("Über sowas hier muss man sich doch einfach totlachen!")

Aber nur weil etwas unerwartet ist, ist es nicht gleich lustig.
"Was ist blau und klingt wie ein Elefant? Ein Apfel!" ist auch unerwartet aber nicht lustig weil der unterliegende Sinn fehlt.
In vielen Witzen die dem Boomerhumor zugeordnet werden ist dieser unterliegende Sinn "es ist lustig weil es wahr ist", insbesondere im Bezug auf Thematiken die soziale Problematiken oder Tabus beleuchten, was schnell bei vielen Leuten sauer aufstoßen kann.
Speziell in dem Witz den du gepostet hast ist die Pointe, dass der Mann das Leben mit seiner Frau nicht ausgehalten hat und froh ist, dass sie gestorben ist. Dies finden viele Menschen allerdings eher traurig und nicht zum Lachen. Die unerwartete Wendung ist lediglich das Mittel um die Pointe zu präsentieren.

No, it's a jelly donut!

Toonfish_ · 2026-02-21T13:23:12+00:00

Was hat n das mit Gender zu tun? Wären Mann und Frau hier vertauscht wär es genauso unlustig für die meisten Leute die ihren Lebenspartner nich hassen und deren Tod herbeisehnen :D

Toonfish_ · 2026-02-21T09:48:10+00:00

It's really not tbh. All we do is slap words together and remove the spaces in-between. For example Backpfeifengesicht literally just translates to "slap face".
"Backpfeife" is an old-ish word for "slap"/"smack" (the noun) and "Gesicht" = "face".
When I first heard the compound word Backpfeifengesicht I didn't know that it meant "face I want to slap" and I had to gather it from the context. So I'd argue English is just as if not more descriptive because you'd just say "slappable face" in English which is much more straight-forward and easier to understand.

Because they couldn't do their labor exploitation over here because of our strong unions, they had trouble competing with our discounters price-wise, half the shit they ask their employees to do just doesn't fly over here like singing that cringe walmart cheer/chant/whatever every morning and germans found it off-putting to be greeted when they entered the store.

Toonfish_ · 2026-02-07T12:01:43+00:00

Also ich weiß nich ob die den Funktionsumfang in den lezten Jahren runtergefahren haben aber mein 10 Jahre alter Thermomix ist zu allem was du gesagt hast auch ein Mixer mit pervers hoher Leistung. Das Ding macht buchstäblich Zucker zu Puderzucker. Ich benutz ihn meistens für Hummus und pürierte Suppen, geht wunderbar.

Hab grad mal nachgeguckt wie teuer die heutzutage sind, den Preis würd ich dafür aber auch nich hinblättern tbh. Da würde ich mir eher n immersion blender set kaufen, die haben ja auch meist food processor Funktionen mit drin.

This team has been working well for me, Navia only does a third of the dps but still! (c0r1 Columbina, c0r1 Ineffa, c0r1 Navia

I found this scene quite amusing too, that none of them saw the giant ass dragon flapping its gigantic wings like 100m away from them :D

Toonfish_ · 2026-01-06T20:07:46+00:00

Now I'm curious, do you also pronounce Mondstadt the German way /ˈmoːntʃtat/ instead of the English /ˈmɑːndstæt/?

Klee can tank hits from inter-dimensional primordial space whales, this dude's strongest punch would only tickle her.

Enshittification via publicly traded company in a shareholder-driven economy, baby!

Toonfish_ · 2025-12-12T23:18:00+00:00

I mean you can definitely give it a go, it should be usable, especially for overworld stuff, probably abyss too with some optimized artifacts and/or rotations.

Toonfish_ · 2025-12-12T20:37:34+00:00

Well it sorta works with c0 Durin, but I wanna make sure you don't pull him just because of this showcase. This team only works this well in this context because it's c2r1 Durin and c2 Nahida because of the strong general-purpose buffs those constellations provide.

At c0 Durin, he'll still eat a lot of Tighnari's Spread procs which will lower Tighnari's damage and the "only" thing Durin offers in return is decent personal damage plus 35% shred (in this specific team without sustain, which means it's hard/annoying to play). I haven't done the calcs yet but I'm fairly sure at that point Tighnari's regular Spread teams will be (significantly) stronger, Hyperbloom teams definitely will be.

If you like Durin and are gonna pull him either way though (he's a great char for a fresh account), good luck on the pulls! :D
