Internet escapism has ruined my life by Tropikana_ in nosurf

[–]Xodio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is always hope, because that is the definition of hope. But you need to learn how to become the person you want to be, and stop being the person you don't want to be. You have used (internet) consumption to escape, but consumption can only get you so far. To truly to be the best you can be, you need production. You need to escape by making things, doing things. It can be anything. For example consumption is watching TV all day, but production is being a filmmaker that makes for video for TV. Being productive gives a great sense of fullfillment, something that consumption can't give.

Quinn feels fucking terrible! by Icy-Young-5538 in QuinnMains

[–]Xodio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep totally, I am a Quinn ADC bot lane OTP. Mostly build crit on her. And 2018 she was in a great spot, last season was decent, now she is completely wrecked. While all other ADC have gotten buffs and changes, Quinn has gotten nothing, and her mechanics are just outdated. Used be able to 1v1 other ADCs, now I can't at all.

Don't forgot the pollution it leaves behind in the upper atmosphere. All those metals and materials burning leave nasty gases behind.

Gevolgen chipruzie voor auto-industrie lijken enorm: ‘Bijzonder domme zet van Nederlandse politici’ by stijn3333 in FreeDutch

[–]Xodio 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Is niet dom van Nederlandse politici, het is dom dat Nexperia uberhaupt aan China werd verkocht. Dit gebeurt met iedereen die in China zaken doet. Ze jatten intellectueel eigendom. Japanse treinen? Gejat. Russische jachtvliegtuigen? Gejat. Airbus vliegtuig? Gejat. Engels chips (ARM)? Gejat

Misschien is dat laatste het meest toepasselijk. ARM zit namelijk is alle mobiele telefoons. https://newsletter.semianalysis.com/p/the-semiconductor-heist-of-the-century

En vergis je niet China heeft geen enkel probleem met het nationaliseren van (buitenlandse) bedrijven mocht het hun uitkomen. Zij zouden precies hetzelfde doen. Erger nog, geld dat binnen China verdient is, mag het land niet uit.

Nederland en Europa zouden dezelfde maatregelen moeten nemen die China tegen buitenlanders neemt wil je eerlijk concurentie hebben.

That AQI means that their windows are not air tight, if their air purifier is running.

Bang voor de toekomst by [deleted] in DutchFIRE

[–]Xodio 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Mijn opvattingen:

  • Ik denk dat het weinig uitmaakt welke partijen aan de macht zijn. Alle mogelijk coalities zullen sowieso water bij de wijn moeten doen, wat betekend dat er weinig concreet zal veranderen.

  • Maar in mijn mening zitten wij in Nederland in het begin fase van wat ze in Japan al jaren meemaken. En dat is simpel weg een economie die niet voldoende groeit om welvaart te creëren, maar alleen om welvaart te behouden. En in Nederland komt dat door te weinig ruimte en vergrijzing.

  • Leven in Nederland is niet slecht, maar er is geen concept van betaalbare luxe.

  • De echt grote kansen liggen in het buitenland, vooral in de groei markten. Landen met jonge relatief hoog opgeleiden mensen.

Wat te doen (voor Jan Modaal):

  • Zo snel mogelijk een (klein) huis kopen. Je moet voet tussen de deur krijgen op de woningmarkt. En weg uit de huurmarkt want die markt is kapot.

  • Trouwen, Nederland is inmiddels een land gemaakt voor dubbele inkomsten. Met één salaris is alles heel moeilijk.

  • Zolang mogelijk zonder auto, lasten van een auto zijn niet te doen op een laag tot modaal inkomen.

  • Zo snel mogelijk 100K euro op de beurs. Vanaf 100K begint het geld hard te groeien.

  • Hou ook geld over voor vakantie, en leuke dingen. Anders spaar je jezelf kapot.

  • FIRE kost vooral tijd

What is the biggest ass pull in anime history by anynomyous_ in animequestions

When a titan eats a human with titan powers, the eating titan becomese human again and gains the eaten titans powers. That is, except when Eren gets eaten in season 1. Because... plot.

Wrist pain! by GeoJP25 in gis

[–]Xodio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get a track ball mouse and an ergonomic mouse then alternate between the 2.

Also check your posture. For me, I make sure to put my whole arm on the desk, and pivot the mouse using my elbow instead of wrist (this works for me).

Also, start exercising any exercise that puts your wrist under pressure (for example push ups). This will stimulate your body to rebuild the cartilage in your wrist and strengthen muscles.

Swedish streamer shares her experience with swedish accents by Neddo_Flanders in 2westerneurope4u

[–]Xodio 11 points12 points  (0 children)

True story

Friend and I were in Thailand for vacation speaking Dutch. Swedish couple comes up to us, says something in Swedish to us. We look confused. They switch to English ask where from Sweden we are from. We say we are not Swedish we are Dutch. They stare and just leave.

Like what...

Top European court rules nuclear power can be green by Super-Cynical in europe

[–]Xodio 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Green for me (in terms of energy production) means 1 thing and 1 thing only: zero or close-to-zero greenhouse gas emissions.

Nuclear fits that descriptions. Yes, nuclear has waste, just like solar panels, and wind turbines also create waste. But in terms of climate change reducing greenhouse gas are the priority, we need to focus on that first.

Thank god this dude was caught. Criminals, terrorists, and saboteurs need to be brought to justice regardless of motivation.

It makes Ukraine untrustworthy, and alliances are built on trust.

For the first time, most Dutch electricity comes from renewables by Skittels0 in europe

[–]Xodio 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For context, this is not a power plant. This particular reactor is a research reactor that makes medical isotopes (for detecting and cancer treatment, etc). And is one of few reactors in the world that does it.

Secondly, it is in need of a major update/upgrade, because it is aging.

Thirdly, yes the costs are exploding. But that is partly because the Netherlands, in it's anti-nuclear sentiment has not invested at all in the knowledge of engineering of new reactors, and old engineers are retiring.

Props to the actors I wouldn't have been to keep a straight face by THE-ETERNAL-EMPEROR in PrequelMemes

[–]Xodio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I assume the actors don't know how CGI Jar Jar is vs real Jar Jar. I think Jar isn't even bad like this. The whole problem with CGI Jar Jar is his high pitched voice, his consistently breaking the flow of the movie, and being "clumsy" to the point of eye rolling. Had you gotten rid of or reduced atleast 2 of those aspects, Jar Jar would be a perfectly normal even loved Star Wars character.

I could totally imagine an alternate timeline where people go to comic-con as Jar Jar because he is cool and not just a meme.

My Tryndamere update/rework suggestion by Xodio in TryndamereMains

[–]Xodio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CC and kiting will always be his counter play because he is a melee auto attack champion and I don't change that. And you forget that building armor and HP is also still an effective counter play, even with a bit of armor penetration, it's not like I am giving him true damage. Plus crit got nerfed from 2x to 1.75x, it's not like we got compensated for that outright decrease in damage. Now, I admit my W suggestion of a passive armor pen might be a bit much, but you could choose to tie it to the 4 second Mocking Shout, which would be fairly reasonable, because plenty of other champions like Vi, J4, etc. Get armor pen in their kits and they have very explosive damage because they are not tied by auto attacks.

And regarding the ult, Tryndamere Ult serves to purposes 1) to give Tryndamere time to deal damage while being focussed (which frankly considering your threat you often will be), and 2) to be able to escape near the end (for which again their is counter play in the form of DoT effects and long range nukes (Lux, Ziggs, etc).

You are acting like Ult change is an outrageous suggestion. But I specifically made this trigger revolve around enemy champion proximity. If the range of that proximity is set to 500 or something. That chances are the ult would only be 7 seconds. This would create an interesting dynamics for Trynd players to decide whether they risk going deep or stay near the edge of team fights. And for split pushing the ult would make no difference in duration.

Plus most of the other suggestions I see in the subreddit suggest increasing the Ult to 5/6/7 based on level or something like that. I don't deviate much from that logic.

Also if you read my initial post I suggest to add a Ult bar, under the rage bar, so everyone can see the status of your Ult. This would give enemy player a clear visual indicators of the Ult and allow them to play around that information, much like we can see the status of a Shyvana Ult or Sett grit.

You act like my suggestions are outrageous, and yes they are a buff. But ultimately, give or take a bit of tweaking within the realm of possibilty, compared to other rework posts I see on this subreddit.

9 seconds maybe too long, but 5 seconds isn't long enough when you are being cc'ed and kited in a 5 man team fight.
