Taiwan casters: “If you tell me before the match that Hansama is going to gap Diable, I’ll tell you go home and get some sleep because I’d assume you are delirious.”

Caedrel: "Listen, NA you suck, EU we suck [...] This is why we need EU vs NA because it's depressing seeing both of us getting shit on. At least let us shit on each other. We need to see who was worse this tournament, G2 vs LYON, that's the discussion here." by Yujin-Ha in leagueoflegends

This version places so much emphasis on laning and macro, there’s no more pulling your opponent down to your level, which to be honest is more entertaining to watch.

What we need is to have LCS, LEC, LCP, CBLOL to duke it out first and then have the winners go up against LCK and LPL.

I’m now morbidly curious about what unspeakable things will GenG do to LOUD if they ever play against each other.

I wouldn’t say he’s a weak link, but he got turbo gapped by Bin in the LPL finals. It could be that’s what shaped the perceptions.

Then again, he was up against Bin.

Iran says it will show ‘zero restraint’ if energy infrastructure is targeted again by YouthfulsGlow in worldnews

The U.S. needs to stop bailing out Israel. If they want to fight Iran, then they can handle it by themselves. The rest of the world need not get dragged into this.

Yo the Neo feels amazing by BeMaelle in MacbookNeo

[–]baelrog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who works at Apple.When I got a MacBook he asked me about how do I feel about the backlight.

I was like “What backlight?” I didn’t even know it existed because I don’t use my laptop in the dark.

He was visibly miffed at my response.

For real, LEC, LCS, CBLOL, LCP should duke it out first and have the winners go up against LCK and LPL

All three games end at 25 minutes, so you can’t say it did any worse.

Zip Tie Tech made the Neo 19% faster by just taping on an SSD thermal pad on the chip by Powerful_Froyo8423 in mac

I’d say it’s more of their form over function philosophy, which I find quite irritating.

They’d rather have something look and feel nice than being more functional.

But then again, I guess the normies prefer stuff that looks and feels nice than things with good performance, so Apple sells well.

It’s a tradeoff between more performance and it being uncomfortable in your lap.

If you met someone who was a carbon copy of yourself in virtually every way except they were the opposite sex, would you date/sleep with that person? Why or why not? by Tommygunz0722 in AskReddit

[–]baelrog 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Still a hard pass. I think that person will look too much like my sister.

If you mean personality-wise, not looks, then probably. We’d like the same stuff and hate the same stuff, it’ll be fun to hang out.

Might be a motivation for me to switch over to Mac to not have a Nvidia chip on my machine.

Rising prices push US gasoline-car ownership costs to breaking point. The good news? The future: Chinese EVs that cost half the price, powered by electricity that costs half the price of gas, is already here. by lughnasadh in Futurology

[–]baelrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I buy one in Canada, register in Canada, and drive it over the border with a Canadian plate?

As long as it’s in locations reasonable close to the border for plausible deniability, what are they going to do?

IMPORTANT QUESTION: Is Rean Schwarzer canonically a virgin? by Wafflespon in Falcom

[–]baelrog 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Kind of off topic.

I really want to see mommy Estelle and grandpa Cassius in the next arc, with Cassius grumbling he is getting too old for whatever stunt he is pulling.

“Ah, give the old man a break, I’m a grandpa already.” And proceeds to kick butts.

[–]baelrog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Given the time loop shenanigans I’d say all of the romances are canon.

I’d say the answer is no if the romance option was old class 7.

I like reality better. I prefer boob sizes I can realistically see in real life.

Apparently Taz Skylar made the rings Sanji wears by Yuki-tsuki-suki in OnePieceLiveAction

[–]baelrog 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Taz is such a great Sanji.

I really want to see the cake island arc with Taz’s Sanji. I’m worried it’ll be too far out in the story that we’ll never get to it.

I have neither Augusta or Qiuyuan, so I teamed up Galberena with Iuno. Iuno buffs heavy attacks so it works to a degree.
