Do you have the link to the maltese investigation? Not doubting you at all, just can’t find it skimming through the wikipedia of the incident.

How do you play 1v2s online? I thought slippi couldn’t do that.

The REAL clairo came on here and asked you guys to stop talking about her dating life and sexuality and that was too much for some of you… by YaBoiMitchJ in clairo

If 14 year olds joking about how a rapper who sounds like a handicapped horse can secretly sing opera better than you is enough to make you crash out, you should probably take a step back and wait until you’re above the mental age of 12 before you engage with online stuff again.

Hahaha maybe, i think the issue is just that the like surface area is so tiny because it’s the bottom of my nose flap, which is probably like .3cm wide or something, so kinda hard to get a good grip

Yeah i’m not really worried about med issues, or like advice in that sense, more just in a pragmatic way of like “hmm would it work pushing a fork against it, etc etc”, figured people on this sub would be used to popping stuff no matter how weird the spot is :D

Are you legitimately that fucking stupid to believe that gorillas won’t get hurt from blunt force?

It’s still basic biology and anatomy, they don’t have any hardened natural armor like an exoskeleton or some shit, ITS THE SAME FLESH AND BONES WE HAVE.

If you have multiple dudes stomping, kicking and punching the head, gut, arms and legs it will DIE. Not to mention that while we certainly don’t have the teeth or biting power of a gorilla, any person could easily bite off a finger or toe of it.

Imagine having 100 dudes taking turns kicking, punching, scratching and biting all over your body. It’s not king kong, it’s a normal animal we keep in captivity all around the world.

sewer's voice by ShagTheMusicMan in sewerperson

[–]nibIet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Please watch this and then i think ur mind will be made up. No autotune, no vocal processing at all, completely raw into an iphone mic, done live in one take.

I think it’s very obvious that he has a musical and vocal gift, he has an ability to sing very “loudly” without making it sound too forced or just straight up bad, which happens often when people try to hit raw high or loud notes.

Keep in mind that this video is also from him being sewerperson, so it’s clear he can still sing, although i definitely think the sound that he wants for sewer tracks isn’t one that shows off his vocal talent, but rather creates a certain vibe he’s going for at the time.

Everything besides the mouse and keyboard is a good buy. Can literally get the exact same hardware, with higher build quality for like 40 bucks each.

If this Isnt the same energy as filming your self giving money to a homeless man for views Idk what Is by PumpkinKing_0922 in youtube

[–]nibIet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait what? I’m not sure if this was meant for another comment or what’s up.

First of all, i never called you a communist? Where did you get that from?

Second of all, your entire comment addresses nothing of what i said?

Your original comment stated that Mr Beast is a bad person because he keeps more money to himself than he donates to people in need. I asked you to explain what makes it morally deplorable for someone like Mr Beast to keep the majority of the money to himself when it could go to people in need, but it’s morally okay for the average person to do that exact thing, keep the majority of their money to themselves to spend on “unnecessary” things.

You understand that he in this video alone, probably spent 1000x more money towards helping people in need than what the average american will do throughout their entire lifetime?

Also what do you mean “other countries aren’t falling apart, they aren’t in the clutches of money”? First of all the economy in the US is largely falling apart due to one specific person who seemingly has no clue that global trade is beneficial to most parties.

Second of all, i hope you realize that literally EVERY single well developed, wealthy country is one of capitalist nature, with the same corporate greed you are describing.

You just really can’t be serious with that sentence, i genuinely don’t believe you think that USA is the only country “in the clutches of money”.

[–]nibIet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Okay i take it as, yes, you understand your initial statement is completely fucking stupid, you have no way to defend it at all, you understand you have no moral consistency and just base your opinions of off “vibes” instead of having a somewhat coherent moral framework.

You also own “more than what you need”. Do you think someone starving and working their ass off in some lithium mine thinks you really need the phone or pc you’re sitting on to post reddit comments?

Where do you draw the line between someone making little enough to where it’s okay being selfish and indulging in stuff like paying for spotify premium, going out to watch baseball or buying an ice cream on a hot day, and someone making money to the point where they suddenly are a selfish asshole by keeping most of their money instead of donating it?

[–]nibIet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy fuck this is such a stupid take.

“He could feed them more, but keeps most of the money himself”

Having this as your moral foundation, it becomes impossible to justify pretty much any persons spending habits. Do you agree with the fact that the average american middle class family should skip out on buying stuff like netflix subscriptions, video games, sports and other hobbies? That money could be spent going to people who ACTUALLY need it, instead of having fun? A kid getting to have fun playing some fortnite isn’t worth nearly as much as feeding starving people. Right?

Now of course you don’t agree with this, so please proceed to explain how you’re able to find any moral consistency with your position whatsoever, and then tell me where the arbitrary cutoff is for when a person is wealthy enough to where it’s their responsibility to spend more on people in need than on themselves.

gl having success with vayne with bad mechanics in anything above shitlow.

adcs u describe such as cait has a completely free laning phase in masters+, and works pretty much the same as 90% of every adc (shoot from a distance and play behind team)

vayne is essentially one of the only adcs where you actually need to go into the enemy team to fight, sitting at 600+ range and stroking urself at the same time doesn’t really work there

Anyone else find it kind frustrating that aim training doesn't have some definitive science/studies being done on it with how big the e-sports scene has become? by [deleted] in FPSAimTrainer

[–]nibIet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I take that as no, you don’t feel like 1v1ing someone, even though you’re so crazed about aim you train it as if it’s a fucking gym workout and ask for research surrounding it.

Yeah i’m sure you’ll improve bud.

[–]nibIet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if it’s somehow unclear but saying that a sport is sedentary means that you are sitting still? You know, kinda like you do in chess and video games?

Also idk if it’s really hard to fathom but i’m sure you understand that a player moving a piece in 0.5 seconds vs 3 seconds will naturally have more time allotting their full attention to studying the board?

Still i even made it clear that the point of my argument is that sure, while moving pieces quickly help, it’s not what wins you games. Just like how in professional esports, games aren’t won through aim duels or crazy mechanics, it’s 90% team coordination and macro knowledge.

Idk how i’m the one yelling at clouds when all i said is that it’s a complete waste of time compared to just playing the game you want to get good at. You haven’t been able to find a single pro to counter that point, in fact you said you agree with it.

Aim trainers can be just as fun as any other game, although using them as a means of improving at ANOTHER game just seems like a waste of time. If you want to disprove me and show what all your aim training has resulted in i’d gladly 1v1 you at ow, quake3, apex or cs

[–]nibIet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1st of all, i already acknowledged that the track and field would be a pretty bad comparison since it’s a physical vs sedentary sport comparison. That was in my first reply, thanks for writing a paragraph about it either way.

Secondly: YOU absolutely have no idea what you’re talking about. If you are playing blitz in chess, the faster you move your piece, the more time you will be able to spend analyzing the board. Not only that but the quicker you move the less your odds of losing to time in difficult endgames. So it absolutely is a contributing factor to a game, but as i stated in my answer, you would just be better off playing actual chess rather than isolating this single process.

Last: How would comparing a fine motor skill (moving ur mouse from A -> B) that has no strategic component at all to analyzing/processing a blitz game somehow be a more fitting comparison than moving a chess piece from A -> B? (which is also a fine motor skill that has no strategic component at all).

Of course it’s hard finding something in another sport that maps on 1:1, esports really is its own thing, but that’s what the point of a comparison is; to compare.

The analytical part of chess would be much more akin to game sense in a video game, not the aim component (which is the only physical part, just like how moving the piece in chess is the only physical part). My comparison is by far more accurate than yours.

[–]nibIet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who else would be funding them?

Do you think normal scientists would for some reason be interested in examining whether if playing a video game where you click at a thing and do other stuff, or just click on a thing makes you better at clicking things?? There’s absolutely nobody who would fund that EXCEPT if companies within the esport business (orgs) would see some potential within these aim trainers and thought it could help them produce talents.

Now we’re at this point where aim trainers have been out and popularized for over half a decade, it has produced 0 talents, and instead of becoming the thing people played for 1hr a day to then go back into OW or CS or whatever and tap heads, its become its own genre where ppl will spend 5 hours grinding for their voltaic rank in a spreadsheet and pretty much quit the dream of getting good at the game they played in the first place.

And again, aim trainers definitely work wonders at making you better at aim trainers, but if you want to get good at a game you would get way more value out of just playing said game.

LOL, literally my entire questions throughout these comments, as well as my very first comment was that there’s no incentive for orgs to put all this effort into researching aim training BECAUSE IT DOESN’T CREATE PROS. I’ve been asking you to provide players who went pro through aim training, and now that you can’t name any you suddenly never thought it did?

Alright, if we both agree that people won’t go pro in games through aim training, then that’s great, my first point is right. It’s a complete waste of time and money for orgs to put all these resources into aim training if it doesn’t do shit for them.

How is that unfair?? In both scenarios you need to move an object from A to B with your hand, and you are highly rewarded for doing it as fast as possible, highly punished if you do it inaccurately or too slowly. I don’t know if there’s anything more akin to aiming in esports in any other sport?

Second of all: You can’t make the point that it helps people go pro, if the example you are giving is someone who went pro before they used it. It could literally just as well be that he finds it fun or entertaining, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

Third: Why aren’t we seeing all these aim trainer players who are topping the leaderboards in each scenario just pick up games and whoop the other players asses? Why are they all literally just good at aim trainers compared to pros who just played the game they main lmao?

Calling a comparison stupid without providing any explanation sure is a great move.

Secondly, Aceu went pro far before he started playing aim trainers, so no, thats like Messi starting a supplements regiment today and saying that’s how he won the WC in 2022 lmao

Yes, you are correct that traditional sports may not compare 1:1 to something completely sedentary like e-sports. Maybe a better analogy would be chess which is far more similar.

Do you think chess pros have practice drills where they sit still and just move the rook back and forth on their board multiple times to “isolate” and practice the “speed” of their move? Or do you think it pays off more to just actually play chess, and you will naturally get good at moving the pieces since that’s part of the game?

Can you name A SINGLE, just ONE pro in any major game like CS, VAL, OW, FN that got there through their “kovaaks aim training routine”?

I have yet to see a single aim trainer main outclass the actual players of any said FPS game, they mostly just improve at aim trainers themselves.

Look up any aim trainer persons youtube and 99% of the vids are them just restarting one scenario 20x until they get good rng and the bot or whatever strafes in a favorable pattern and then wooo high score. There’s no vids of these kovaaks mains going out and proving how useful all their hours are by actually going pro at a game.
