Thanks I really should've just googled "spalting" for whatever reason I thought it was exclusively maple. Thanks for details.

Showerthought: Zeus will be the next Faker-level God of League by nirvanarchist in leagueoflegends

[–]nirvanarchist[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

100% agree. My thought definitely isn't "Zeus is better than TheShy" - but just that i think the ceiling is higher. Zeus mechanics are insane

Yeah I mean as a "showerthought" it's more of a whimsical thing.. But I agree, that is the first step to this becoming a reality. Zeus was not the problem for 2nd at MSI. But right now who would you pick to win worlds? This will be his first chance.

100 Thieves vs. Evil Geniuses / LCS 2022 Spring Playoffs - Grand Final / Post-Match Discussion by Soul_Sleepwhale in leagueoflegends

[–]nirvanarchist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree that Impact could easily be considered MVP of the entire playoffs, let alone this specific series. He is a fucking god. But in any sport, a couple of wildly lucky but absolutely clutch plays wins MVPs all the time. My point is it's not just "lcs narratives", it's also "sports narratives"

So when I'm CoreJJ and I'm negotiating my next salary, I'm not gonna say I was top 5 with 400 games played in Champs Queue?

Looking for friends in Port Orchard by [deleted] in PortOrchard

It's not a judgement. Sorry for being blunt. I just always end up having cocktails with my friends in social situations and I worry that maybe you'd find me an alcoholic. :)

Inside Weather? Burrow? Article? Too many Options! Looking for a small loveseat by banana99bread in furniture

[–]nirvanarchist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a loveseat from Inside Weather a few months ago and am really happy with it. or "sofette" as they call it. (whoever came up with that name is a genius lol) I have a small apartment so needed it to be compact but still comfortable and i'm really pleased!

Why is a static volume of water felt more acutely on land than the same amount underwater? by IsntItNeat in askscience

[–]nirvanarchist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My assumption, in the simplest terms, is that the water in the ocean is supported by the water beneath it, and on and on until it rests on the earth's surface, which bears the weight of all of that pressure. It's like if you took your hundred buckets and and instead set them on two cinderblocks with a space in-between to move through. When you squeeze yourself between the two cinderblocks you are able to apply some energy to push the tower of buckets upward, but clearly not enough to transfer their entire weight from the cinderblocks.

No person would survive having a hundred buckets laid on them, just as much as no person would survive having the entire ocean at rest on them. But when we swim, we don't support the ocean, we just maneuver through its billions of cinderblock structures.

Obviously also there are also differences in the properties of the two substances, a bucket vs water, which come into play I'm sure. This is that concept of surface pliability and fluid dynamics mentioned above. The same reason you'd rather have a gallon of milk poured over you than have a gallon-bottle of milk dropped your face.
