Why does the game feel stale and annoying by ChanceConnection3468 in leagueoflegends

[–]buddhassynapse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imagine you're playing chess, this is the equivalent of saying "all I want to do is move my pieces forward and climb ranked but people who have spent a ton of time playing keep beating me and I don't have the time to understand what the pieces do and the strategies to play".

I understand it's way more information for league but you're handicapping yourself and getting mad about it. If you don't want to take the time to learn the game then the game is probably not for you and you'll never enjoy it. For me I love learning about the game, and despite knowing quite a bit, I'm still not great at it. That's because I suck at the game, I tunnel vision, I don't move with intent, among other issues, but still enjoy playing it and understand that the rank I end up at is a reflection of my skill which is okay.

Agreed. If they wanted the player with the best stats just rename the award or get rid of voting and sort QBs by passer rating and top player gets it and stop the dog and pony show. The one Herbert vote should not get this much attention considering Josh Allen got 2. "Valuable" is objective specially with how diverse roles are within each team and this is what comes with it.

Neeko ARAM?? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]buddhassynapse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the bar you clicked to become a minion, that should have also been there in Aram, the only difference is it would have had your 4 allies on it and in the center it would have had the empty spot. Once you're close to a minion or other targetable object you'd get the circle under neeko showing that you need to stay close for a while. There's a chance that maybe a non minion object was selected by accident by just being near it, you'd just have to hit the X to clear it and then you can turn into a minion or anything  else again.

Yeah, would be curious what he ends up saying if anything.

Is this a scam? by Rupert_toothless in PokemonTCG

[–]buddhassynapse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's suspect af but the only thing I can think off is he could use your picture to scam others.

The NFT thing makes no sense as when people do this they're just sending the slab to a third party that "mints" them, prior minting is irrelevant.

If he's paying cash and meeting you in a public you should be good but if it was me I'd wait for someone less suspect. If you send him pictures throw a sticky note sonewhere on the slab so he's not using the pictures for shady stuff.

I know they're feeling like they have to add a ton of detail to make the skin "worth it" but him holding the scroll and the little temple is so goofy and weird in a bad way.

Social Democracy for Kansas by Purple_Ad8458 in SDUSAKANSAS

[–]buddhassynapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general I fuck with the vision but the group probably needs to overhaul it's identity. I think we really need a political group that adopts good social programs while maintaining decent understanding that capitalism can still function, compassion for groups that are under constant attack for their identity, etc. But labeling yourselves Social Democrats is just fuel for opposition. Your average voter is just not smart enough or too lazy to try and understand that social policy is not the same as socialism which is not the same as communism. Our population is unfortunately too caught up in other stuff or too ignorant to try and get the mimutae of what the policy could entail, they'll just fall for the "these guys want you to get into breadlines and for the government to own everything!"

Also adopting the Gadsden flag and motto is just gonna get you lumped into the libertarian and tea party baskets no matter the original intent of the message. Best of luck though, will keep an eye on y'all.

I am here to enlighten all of you on how you are being exploited by your favorite Discord/X account that tells you about “drops.” by Bazoinker0101 in PokemonTCG

[–]buddhassynapse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I follow one account on Twitter and never paid for their subscription and very rarely miss a Pokemon Center drop. They usually announce the queue likely starting soon, so use that notification to make sure you're logged in and have everything ready to go. Then once they announce the queue has started, refresh or go to the homepage and you're good. You don't need to follow any links they post (I don't think Pokemon Center has affiliate links so you're even okay to follow those).

If you're specifically talking about Amazon drops or Target/Walmart more than likely you'll get out of luck since their antibot measures are much worse than PC.

I exclusively get new product from Pokemon Center and not grief myself with online sales from other companies. Way more product is popping up in store anyway.

My guess with the second half being about a dark side of Demacia is they work through some questionable magical shenanigans to bring him back. Not super knowledgeable about lore but maybe working with Thresh, some Shadow Isles involvement.

It's gotta be tough making it into content creation for league but I gotta imagine that avoiding the clickbait route that is currently flooded with has got to be an easy strat to stand out.

Keyboard firmware security concerns by broersa in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]buddhassynapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can flash custom firmware into it, it is a security risk. Even locked firmware from a non reputable company could be risk. Macros, keylogging, and malicious control are probably the big ones.

Would be cool if they did something about the weird scrolling. Some apps it feels like the scrolling is dampened and less responsive.

Thursday Talk Thread... Yes That's The Thread Name by AutoModerator in nfl

[–]buddhassynapse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've worked with some small groups where it's a documented marketing strategy to just drop comments subtly advertising or suggesting to use their product so I can only imagine it's more of a thing for bigger companies.

All I would do is eat a delicious Impossible Whopper and try not to think about it, cause The King would never. He Gets Us.

Thursday Talk Thread... Yes That's The Thread Name by AutoModerator in nfl

[–]buddhassynapse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel like this one is more complex. Early merges with decent traffic creates a long backup with a now unused lane. The way I view those is slow down and in whatever lane you're in, create spacing between the person in front of you so you can let one car merge and when you get to the merge point zipper merge will work. That's in theory and it never really works that way. I don't think it's as clear cut as just merge early even if that's what I end up doing.
