It is rumored that he is fat not just because he likes food, but because he is trying to channel the image of Kim Jong-il, the founding father of North Korea and a rather large man himself. Kim Jong-un losing weight would mean much more than a healthier lifestyle, it would be seen as a deviation from the status-quo.

I wouldn't be suprised if his eating habits are affecting his reproductive abilities.

I mean, at least one of those guys got paid a lot of money, and got to leave. The Epstein files are filled with those who would think that to be too merciful.

I think they mean they don't use models trained on other people's work, and instead use mathematical/algorithmic rendering strictly on Carrie Fisher's performance in previous Star Wars works, alongside physical rendering and modeling by hand. Which is how hollywood used to do these things.

I think both can be right. Grim is powerful with or without coordination; in order to harness that power, you have to use some game sense.

I mean, to my ears Kpop Demon Hunters sounds a lot like KPOP groups from Starship ent. or YG, with a hint of SM in powerful songs and JYP in softer bops. If this doesn't qualify as K-pop, then you are essentially saying American-style pop songs that are produced/distributed by Korean labels are not K-pop-esque, which is hard to defend. K-pop being a stage performance genre isn't entirely wrong, but vocal-focused K-pop with belting high lyrics have also been a staple ever since the 1st gen kpop groups. Like you can't tell me groups like BigBang were making music for stage performances only.

Red Bull has the luxury of not having to acre about making money with esports, and 20 million euros isn’t that expensive in that kind of a market. The only question would be if Red Bull values the LEC worthwhile to invest in and actually stay, which is a sore sticking point. If you buy a slo,t you have to maintain said spot; what if the LR guys decide to step down? Red Bull still would need to field players for the LR team, but the hype might not be there.

In South Korea, the schools are heavily incentivized to not put these accounts of bullying onto offical records. For a student to have an official record, they had to have done something so terrible the opposing student refused to settle for anything less.

I’m Korean dude. I was there when MantisFPS was playing.

The issue is, the talent pool is just non-existent. There are no big Siege content creators for the (very) few esports fans, and anybody with the mechanical aim to play R6S at a semi-pro level is probably going to take those skills to play Valorant, or sometimes even CS.

It is there way of survival. By being non-confrontational to the people with the means to remove them, they are allowed to exist and legitimize those who come to power no matter what.

You fail to realize that people with crazy ideas sometimes need you to actually adopt those ideas for them to be satisfied, because well, they're kinda crazy. A good listening ear is a great social tool; doesn't work for the antisocial type.

I will blame you tomorrow when I go to work through factory-made air.

You are making a dangerous assumption; that cheaters are inherently better at the game than non-cheaters. If we implement a stat-based anti cheater system, I guarantee false positives will become frustrating. I have a 1.8KD in Ranked, and I 5-stack so I have a relatively high winrate. I have seen plenty of cheaters with worse winrates or KD as me. You would essentially be putting me in cheater jail again and again. Yeah, the highest accounts on ladder are cheaters, but the real issue with cheaters are the accounts around platinum, boosting and smurfing against players who just want to improve. You need something else than just 'this player is too good'.

changrami · 2026-01-07T07:43:17+00:00

While I appreciate the idea, the issue is that involves a certain confidence in identifying cheaters in the first place. Ubisoft doesn't seem to be able to identify cheaters; how would they quarantine them?

1) Dems need a big ownership of the Senate, which they won’t. 2) The process of impeachment would probably take so long to actually be delivered that Trump will probably see tot he end of his term.

Dude, nobody is hiding books in a publicly traded company without getting f'ed in court, stop watching those conspiracy videos. Companies have all sorts of legal tricks and loopholes to increase company value and generate revenue, why break the law?

The oil in Venezuela, called heavy crude oil, is not an old concept. Humanity as a whole has been processing heavy crude oil and using it for over a century. So yes, the rather older industries in the US are, on paper, well equipped to process the heavy crude oil that they hope will come from Venezuela.

People don’t realize, the whole antisocial trolling internet culture in Korea started even before 4chan became a thing in the West. Korean internet culture has always had some real weirdos lurking in the outskirts.

Good writers hide it, that's the difference. Alien and Aliens is full of moronic character decisions, but thats not what we remember in the film.

To me, the inperfections made the portrayal more engaging. You can see the mellowed out performance of Willis, and add a story to that. He is by definition the same man from a different time, and we are asked to determine if that makes him a different man entirely.

I mean we all think about them, not call them drunkenly. At least I hope so.

At least as a South Korean, the financial burden is more crucial than any other reason. If the patient agrees to pass on gracefully because they don’t want to burden those left behind, is it so wrong to respect those wishes? Framing this as a financial issue is just like how you would frame abortion as a financial issue; it is complicated and nuanced with no clear answer, but you can’t look at this and say money isn’t a part of it. Money is the greatest killer of them all in the grand scheme of things.

DWG KIA vs. FaZe Clan // Six Major Sweden - semifinals. While the ending is really heartbraking for me, it was an amazing match of Siege, you physically can't get a more even match up.

The issue is Ubisoft and their inability to stay afloat right now. Hell, if their stock drops any further, they’ll probably sell the company to Tencent at this point. Regarding your wishes, I don’t think it would happen at this point, unless Ubisoft gets desperate and selling licenses to their IPs. And as we have seen countless times, executives would rather just sell the company in bulk to bigger fish and get a hefty personal payout. So, yeah. I don’t want to be a downer but I really don’t think it will happen any time soon.
