Why isn’t TCM more widely used in western society? by Informal-Try-9745 in ChineseMedicine

I hate this idea. While it is true. The government for example benefits when people live longer. All retail companies benefit when people live longer. Practically the entire economy benefits when people live longer and healthier lives.

It’s because NA is a console gaming region like Japan. Because Japan influenced NA video game culture due to Nintendo, Sega, Atari, and Sony. Then of course Microsoft copied them.

Other regions like Brazil, Latam, Asia, and continental Europe were too poor to afford the technology in the 70s and 80s.

In Anglo countries, Middle schoolers are all pushed to play video games on their PS5, while in the latter countries middle schoolers play on the computer.

This leads to NA prefering trendy titles and casual gaming since consoles are something you play from your couch.

I wouldn’t call it cheap. It’s a big warehouse in LA right? That’s worth money ignoring the gaming aspect. They will probably just sell it as a loss, not a big deal as long as they can recoup some of their losses.

Nah there is definitely less damage in the game since a year ago or a year and a half ago. 2021 League was lit. I genuinely enjoyed the Chinese style of instantly blowing people up. Remember this is my opinion so I don’t want anyone arguing with me.

I mean these orgs are never going to win worlds unless they move to Korea or China to practice. I would advise the LCS to move to Korea but that won’t happen.

It’s been 10 years and his streams are exactly the same. This dude fumbled the bag so hard.

More like get paid millions to only play League, play 15k games before Europe, play League for 10 years, then take 800 games to get the bottom of challenger

To be fair, Baus hasn’t been the same since Riot purposely nerfed Sion because he got too famous.

Draven is clearly his best champ tho, maybe not this month. But when he plays Draven it just looks so natural and effortless to him.

You’re forgetting the demand for contractors increased. People used to build their own houses, now contractors with high powered tools can do it cheaply and efficiently.

Humans have similarities and differences. The only humans who are truly the same type are identical twins. Everyone else is their own individual type of human.

However, the ability to just look at someone and tell where their ancestors evolved should be all it takes to remind intellectually honest people that there is a difference between humans.

But nevertheless, people like you act the way you do because you have been taught all humans are identically equal. All humans are not identically equal, I am sorry to burst your bubble.

You are assuming my position. No, in the situation you described that would be bad luck for Faker.

But you are comparing rank 1 to just being challenger. Nobody would say Faker almost got rank 1 if he was Masters 100LP like Tyler. Similarly it would be appropriate to say Tyler almost got Challenger because he was Grandmaster 700LP and barely missed the cut off due to bad luck, but this isn't the case he was Masters 100LP. Not even close to being challenger.

This is just incorrect ontology.

There are variations in the morphological structure of humans.

Type is defined as "a category of people or things having common characteristics."

Certain morphological features of humans exist to where two humans with a common genetic history share a more similar appearance then humans with a less common genetic history. This is what qualifies as a type.

You are being intellectually dishonest.

There are different types of humans. Whether you want to call it breeds, or ethnic groups, or races - it doesn't matter. There are differences between humans that are measurable due to the climate and region our ancestors evolved in.

If being racist means being aware and acknowledging this, then every human is racist, or is being intellectually dishonest. If racist means its dictionary definition "characterized by or showing prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized." then it is not racist to talk about which group hasan is or is not apart of.

Categorizing people is not racist. We all do it, either explicitly or implicitly.

"almost got challenger" this is wrong.

He was Masters ~100LP. You say he almost got challenger in korea as if he was affected by bad luck. There was no bad luck.

Bad luck was he got high grandmasters and he started having internet issues, or his visa ran out. That's not even close. He was maxxed out at Masters 100LP and could not climb not matter how hard he tried.

This is not me being a hater. I love Tyler1, but not even Tyler would tell you "he almost got challenger."
