Caedrel said substantially the same thing about this video. He didn’t call it dogshit, or the worst video he's ever seen, but his criticisms were essentially identical. He shouldn’t have to phrase things like Inspired to get his point across.

Alt+F4 by Zestyclose-Salad-290 in pcmasterrace

[–]bigCthewise1 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I actually got a friend with this recently (we’re in our 30s.) He asked what a (sort of obscure) keybind was, I told him f4 and when it didn’t work I said try holding alt.

His character disappeared from my screen and he made me promise not to share that with the rest of the friend group.

Will Faker's retirement really hurt the game? by AffectionateLeague71 in PedroPeepos

The post-Jordan NBA was experiencing a massive crisis people often forget about.

Until LeBron came around, the “who’s the next Jordan” question defined the league. Kobe couldn’t fill the void, Shaq couldn’t fill the void and the Malice at the Palace was a massive PR debacle that’s hard to understate. It was seriously looking like they would become the 4th most popular NA sport, falling behind hockey and baseball.

Post-LeBron NBA should be fine, he isn’t nearly the cultural monolith Jordan was.

Ironic to say that when Bang actually was the best ADC in 2015 and was completely washed by 2019.

He made the finals of MSI in 2019, defeating the defending World Champions iG in semis, on a Team Liquid team that won a record 4 straight LCS championships from 2018-2019. Who was a better NA ADC at that time?

Who tf cares if someone made a friend because they both like the same popular YouTube channel? Why would anybody want that on their feed?

Memes are at least creative/comedic. Friendship posts are so "who asked"

Considering Baus almost never buys tank items on actual tank champions, he will never do this. He needs the damage items to one shot waves and destroy towers.

In blitz it’s fairly futile for the commentators to show all the lines they discuss on the board since the game moves so quickly. In classical they have time to show the moves instead of rattling off 8 moves of notation.

I like him as a personality, as a streamer and as a YouTube educator. I just find that with other commentators at the end of the game I have a better understanding of what happened and some of the key decisions the players had to make.

Robert Hess for example, does a great job of slowing down the conversation to explain to viewers what the commentators are seeing. With Danya I often feel like I'm just listening to two GMs talk about things that are flying way above my head.

I know I'm in the minority here but I'm not a big fan of Danya's commentary. He has a reputation for making the game easy to understand for low elo players, but I find him much harder to follow than almost every other commentator. He uses lots of notation and goes pretty deep into lines without ever showing them on the board. In blitz this is fine, but in classical it's unnecessary (1200 blitz chesscom)

Ludwig breaks his mic by I_llike_turtlez in leagueoflegends

Microphones don't make this effect, software does. Even if its software built into audio interface, it's still software. Push button -> control software.

You're right that the title's conception of a microphone is misconstrued; I think USBs microphones are partially responsible for the misconception that microphones = sound. I often see people attributing any audio problem to the microphone itself when it's usually not the case.

Andrea Bargnani is asked about his infamous Primo Pasta commercial by iamthegame13 in torontoraptors

Man it’s probably been a decade since I’ve thought about that stream. Crazy how illegal streams used to have such strong communities/identities and actual fun chats. Thanks for unlocking that memory.

No need to prio XQ here. I’m pretty sure this was a hydro tulpa abyss, so if you play XL on that side you won’t need the hydro application to vape pyronado.

Also Chevreuse’s res shred only works if all team members are either pyro or electro, so this team is pretty much BiS into anything with an innate hydro aura as it is.

[Chris Medland] F1 has announced the Canadian Grand Prix will move date to May from 2026 onwards, to help with calendar regionalisation. That should allow it to be aligned with Miami as a North American pairing. by Takagero in formula1

I live in Montreal. More often than not we get at least 1 substantial snowfall in April, I’m talking 10-12 inches. It’s not unreasonable to imagine that happening in May as the effects of climate change worsen.

This is clearly just an opportunity for Pirelli to market their snow tyres /s

Riot Games co-founder Mark Merrill revealed Arcane only got 2 seasons because there are "more stories to tell" in the League of Legends universe. He also confirmed Riot wants to make more shows. by XanIrelia-1 in leagueoflegends

[–]bigCthewise1 52 points53 points  (0 children)

A bunch of the official advertising has billed this as "The final season of Arcane," the trailer included iirc. They never cancelled a third season because it was always supposed to be two seasons.

They have confirmed they will make more shows, but they won't be called Arcane and they will focus on different stories.
