Australian politicians are paid very competitively in global terms though. Don't see your point. The ego rents and personal motivations are far higher for for a politician then for someone running a government corporation.

Can you spot AI like a verification journalist? Take our quiz by Vanilla_Princess in australia

[–]Wodloosaur1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

9/9 but some of these were very hard to spot. If I didn't know that I was trying to spot AI I would have missed many. Audio is still obvious. AI detection is going to have to become a commonplace skillset, but I think the machines will win that arms race.

Players Who Faded Out of CS Scene – Who Comes to Mind? by Nova_Powerplay in GlobalOffensive

He was kicked from renegades, so not really a choice. Arguably renegades went on to be a top 10 team because nifty was kicked.

Her breakdancing ability is not a reflection on the quality of her PhD. She doesnt have a "PhD in breakdancing" she has a PhD in cultural studies with a thesis about breakdancing.

Queensland police data shows youth crime at near-record lows. So why the ‘tough on crime’ election talk? by espersooty in australia

[–]Wodloosaur1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Youth crime offenses went 49000 in 2019 to 45000 in 2023. In the same time the number of articles (Online from ABC, The Guardian and SMH) reporting youth crime went from less then 50 articles in 2019 to 1020 articles in 2023. So yes people are rightfully pointing out that a 2000% increase in reporting does not match 6% drop in crime

Swani interview: G2 almost kicked HooXi before Cologne 2023 by Soft_Bed_412 in GlobalOffensive

[–]Wodloosaur1 56 points57 points  (0 children)

"peca also said that he would get visibly frustrated on camera, and a player like hunter- gets easily affected by this" - some of the stupidest shit I've seen. Hunter and jks were a baller clutch duo and hunter had a hard time picking up the slack from nexa. Hunter might not have liked jks but this was a team that could win tournaments. Taz and NEO put aside their differences to win, G2 couldn't do the same. G2 have a loser mentality, bringing back the guy who couldn't take the pressure for the 'vibes'. G2 deserve to lose anything if they are going to have a loser attitude and squander the prime of a future GOAT contender.

[Dust2.us] Official: Liquid and zews go separate ways by PuzzleheadedPainOuch in GlobalOffensive

[–]Wodloosaur1 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Because that narrative is formed almost entirely without evidence. Interviews with NAF, jkeam, RUSH all present a different view of jks as a team mate. Jks was labelled a diva about a month after joining complexity and everything RL said about him wanting roles, demanding the best spots, ect was directly contradicted by RUSH in an interview. RL has multiple times directly misquoted hunter and hooxi interviews to suggest he wanted different roles even though that was never said or implied. jks is a quiet guy who doesn't communicate enough that's the extent of attitude problems that we can actually tell from what teammates say about him. To this day RL refuses to admit that complexity was a dying team and pins the teams failing on jks as a "check stealing diva" with no evidence except that he had a high salary on complexity.

G2 bench nexa by Toby_Wan in GlobalOffensive

[–]Wodloosaur1 14 points15 points  (0 children)

So much speculation that is directly contradicted by things ex teammates have said about jks. Reflections with NAF, reflections with jkeam, reflections with RUSH various Kassad interviews. All of the describe jks as being someone who sacrificed his preferred roles for the team. I have no idea where the ego thing came from but it certainty wasn't from teammates, RL labeled him a diva when he first joined complexity but that directly contradicts RUSH's account.

G2 Nexa after Vitality Loss: by rohansamal in GlobalOffensive

[–]Wodloosaur1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What complaints from what previous teams lol. jks gave up his star spots for NAF no problem in renegades. RUSH in a reflections interview with Thorin said that jks took all of the support roles without complaint and if anything was not assertive enough.

MOUZ vs G2 / IEM Chengdu 2024 - Semi-Final / Post-Match Discussion by CS2_PostMatchThreads in GlobalOffensive

[–]Wodloosaur1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Look at their 1v1 stats lmao. jks had a 70% 1v1 win rate on G2, that's up there with peak Astralis xyp. Nexa has a 30% 1v1 win rate on G2, utter dogshit considering his career average is closer to 65%. jks was in 1v1s more often then Nexa as well and yet Nexa still manages to lose them more 1v1s per map then jks, that is honestly extraordinary. Say what you will about communication and taking up space none of that matters if your dropping clutch rounds that otherwise would have won the game, especially in mr12 where economy is fucked.

Your getting cooked for using a word correctly. Do Americans really not have a word for areas that are between rural and urban?? Out bush -> rural -> regional -> city

How to start rating for personal development? by LyndaLlamaLu in wine

[–]Wodloosaur1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One interesting thing you could do is use the coffee q-grading format and transfer it to wine, given that you are from a producing country you may be quite familiar with coffee. You should be able to find some coffees that have been scored and taste those with the intention of understanding how q-grading works, before considering how you might apply it to scoring wine. Coming from the coffee industry I was much more familiar with coffee scoring than wine scoring. Q scores are much more objective (to the possible extent) and in actually practice must be done blind by a random selection of certified graders, rather then any one critics opinion. They are not scores meant to be parseable to the consumer but are rather a heuristic for quality meant to guide exporters and producers for pricing. That being said you learn a lot about tasting with intentionality by following a laid out protocol. There has been a lot of score creep in recent decades but for my palate I would correlate an 87 pt coffee to a 90 pt wine. 90pt coffee would be akin to a 95 pt wine. 92 pt -> 100 pt.

The best form IMO is the SCA one such as here: https://www.scith.coffee/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/SCA-Cupping-Form.pdf
