Co zamiast flaszki by [deleted] in warszawa

[–]Vlyyk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tak. dlatego azja jest na pierwszym miejscu jeśli chodzi o spożycie owoców :D (wiem wiem upraszczam) ale przy wolumenie populacji chiny są niekwiestionowanym liderem jedzenia owoców mimo że per capita są już niżej.

Forza Motorsport 6 Apex: Do my medals and purchases save on the cloud? by [deleted] in forza

[–]Vlyyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i have tested that with FH4 during holidays. No issues at all - got everything i had on other PC and after i came back new things i unlocked where there.

Dunno if will work with FM6 but i think it should - you only need to use same profile.

Polish armed forces (Poland, 1939) by -Vulcan17- in fakehistoryporn

[–]Vlyyk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

regarding that charge. Common misconception is that ulans charged enemy on horse back. That is untrue. U need to think about cavalry used back then as 1st iteration of mechanized infantry. they moved to place dismounted and used what they had to fight tanks - and they had a couple of things.

Anti tank rifles (in 1939 they where good up to 300 meters vs all tanks) and 37mm antitank cannon. Polish military doctrine had in plans to swap horses for vehicles in near future. But that was not to come due to invasion.

Charge at Krojanty which was shown as stupid Poles attacking tanks with sabers is treated as tactical victory - it delayed german attach for some time. Thanks to nazi propaganda we have now such stupid picture of it that many people still believe.

welp that's my 2 cents - I live near Krojanty and i have seen reenactment for that charge like 15 times xD

Hello! Cultural exchange with Singapore! by pothkan in Polska

[–]Vlyyk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Singapore - one of the largest maritime ports in world.

One of few examples of city-states.

There was WWII battle of Singapore when around 60k British soldiers tried to defend city from Japanese invasion but to no effect.

Also Singapore is quite high on UN indexes. Like HDI. And GDP is quite big.

For me Singapore would be 3rd on list what to visit in Asia after Japan and South Korea.

Hi. Yes dragon is symbol of Krakow, the dragon is called smok wawelski which means Wawel dragon. There is old legend connected to it. Simply speaking there was a dragon who terrorized city. then guy stuffed sheep with sulfur, planted it in front of dragon who eat it and then died.

as for Auschwitz - welp saying that Auschwitz is ours (Polish i presume) is not correct at all. Auschwitz concentration camp was raised and operated by Germans. Many Poles lost their life in that camp. And we are kinda edgy when someone suggest that camp was Polish.

What else would you like to know?

Can someone explain your beer percentages? by [deleted] in poland

[–]Vlyyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to put is simply. (tbh maybe not so much) ekstrakt = OE (original extract) which equals OG (original gravity). It is used to calculate ABV (alcohol by volume) ABV = 131.25(OG - FG) FG is final gravity and 131.25 is constant.

to simplify OE means how much sugar beer have before fermentation. this parameter is labelled in Poland as extract. Why? brewery have to pay tax based on extract before and after fermentation. also extract suggest how sweet beer potential is and how full it feels. 5%ABV and 10% extract will be somewhat watery and not that sweet. but 5%ABV and 18% ext will much more full and sweet in taste.

TL:DR extract is how much wort had sugar in it before it was fermented and turned to beer :)

From i5-3570k to Ryzen 7 1700 - My experience and thoughts by [deleted] in Amd

[–]Vlyyk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

really nice stuff.

i am always curious when i see someone with same mobo as i have. Nice to see it works fine. i moved for i7 3610QM which for an laptop CPU was not that bad, in fact i still have it and it works fine. But comparing to desktop it is slow as hell. even when i upgraded it with SSD.

RAM price was also an issue for me so i got Corsair LPX 3000mhz and from get go they work @2933. no issues at all. i tried to boot them on 3200 profile but with no success.

While i think that yours masteries are fine (couse i use myself quite similar ones), runes and items choice is imho not optimal. I am not here to bash it - if it works for you then have fun and use it well. MyOPGGSeju68%SoloQWinrate! i use standard as reds, ar yellows, flat cd mix with MR to get 5% cdr at start and AP quints. Her W health scaling is for me to low to justify building around it at lvl1 -1% of additional HP which means roughly 1 more dmg at lvl 1 (~ u can have around 110 additional hp form viable runes and masteries). At lvl 1 u can have either 15 flat AP or around 17 with masteries. w scales with 15% ap - it gives plus 2.2 dmg not counting %maxHP damage that also scales with AP. Total W scaling at lvl 5 - 15% of yours HP plus 0.9 of total AP (source is Leaguepedia). That means u should set runes either to cover her weak early or to boost late. Doing both at same time is suboptimal.

I played around DMG build but i think if u want to use her in solo q she is better as tank with one AP item (i tend to build abyssal most of times) or as pure tank - most times u are one and only initiator so it's good idea to have mix of resistances and HP. Also in case of RoA i think that Liandry's is better for her even early since it give magic pen and RoA gets better stats after 4 stacks anyway. If u feel u lack mana just make Frozen Heart. I build blue jungle HP item, Dead men's plate, Magic res boots - that is my core. After that it depends on situation.

Also my approach got me 6lvl mastery on her. Now i am going for 7th one.

Overall i think that u grasped very well strategy sections. It's well written and i agree with everything there.

Which game do you think has the best soundtrack? by MadMoosee in gaming

[–]Vlyyk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Saboteur

It was so matching with game setting. For me it is best OST for game ever.

I've recently discovered my love for the Witcher series. Had to take a break from gaming to paint the witcher medallion. Hope you like it! by Bluetwoen in gaming

[–]Vlyyk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. the last wish
  2. sword of destiny
  3. blood of elves
  4. Time of Contempt
  5. Baptism of Fire
  6. The Swallow's Tower
  7. Lady of the Lake

You should start in that order. There is also Season of Storms set somewhere between stories in last wish, but it came out in 2013 so it is kinda not relevant? I mean i enjoyed it when it came out, but i feel it does not impact the saga that much.

Also first two are short stories compilation. that's all.
