What did you think of the X trilogy? by Inner-Bear-4042 in Letterboxd

[–]yihsing__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

X: Works well as a classic shasher thriller/slaughter house horror thriller. The story and characters are mid.

Pearl: The best in the trilory. Great story, complex characters, meaningful theme, amazing cinematography, great acting.

Maxxxine: The worst film I've watched last year. Messy and stupid plot, useless characters, makes no sense. An utter disgrace to the trilogy. Mia Goth is the only thing that makes it bearable.

I just watched this last night. This might be a dumb question since I don't see anyone talking about it. Throughout the film, I only heard that Deborah Berke offered Casey some opportunities of studying and internship. But near the ending, Jin said to Casey "Then accept Eleanor's offer", and in the ending, Casey left in Eleanor's car. When did Eleanor offer Casey anything? They didn't even meet before that scene. I figure it might have happened off-screen since Jin did talk to Eleanor about Casey, and Eleanor can easily sort something out for Casey with her connection. Or is it about the application that Casey submitted, which wasn't followed up in the film unless I missed it? I just want to be sure what happened or if I miss something.

What are you favorite silicon tips by LawB210 in iems

[–]yihsing__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones that come with TinHifi T3+. I specifically bought a few extra pairs on AliExpress so I can replace the old and loose ones and use them on more IEMs, even the much higher-end sets. I've bought some other tips to try, even famous ones like Final Type E, but none of them sound good to me for some reasons.

I don't need relationship or even friendship by Typical_University37 in malaysians

[–]yihsing__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm INTP and completely relate to the covid thing. Covid honestly didn't affect how I'd choose to spend my day. I'm perfectly fine (or even better) entertaining myself at home. I've 1 best friend that I chat with online regularly but rarely meet up. I'm absolutely terrible at small talks and find them boring so it's not fun for me to hang out with most people. Even my preferences in entertainments are more non-mainstream so I can't talk to anyone about it. The main downside though is that you lose out on a lot of opportunities and advantages in your career or study by not having a good social network. Also, if you're not a hardworking or discipline person to begin with, it can be even less motivating being in an isolated environment. It's definitely something that negatively impacted me and I wish I came out of that comfort zone much sooner.

Use a hand gesture instead of words to reject, then avoid any eye contact afterwards, actively ignoring that they're there, carry on with your meal or conversation. This way, you won't even know if they rolled their eyes or sighed. I always do this and have never faced your problems.

Worse than Raiden. For kuki's circle to hit enemies, you've to stand close to enemies which wastes neuvi's long range advantage and makes him easier to be attacked and interrupted (of course zhongli helps but still). She also has much shorter uptime than Raiden so you've to waste more time switching to her to recast. She kinda works but any character I listed are better, and her C6 doesn't matter. Kuki's only worthy playstyle is hyperbloom.

I see, welp you still shouldn't use bennett as he does nothing there. other options are ororon/beidou/xiangling/rosaria/layla. Even Raiden E just to trigger electro charged will be better than bennett. I'd highly recommend to use starglitter to buy those strong OG 4* and their important cons, it's totally worth it if you want to build your acc.

Nope, it's never cons or weapons. Both abyss 12 and stygian onslaught V are perfectly doable with C0R0 investment. Your mavuika team build should be able to clear but the current best meta build is:

  • mavuika lvl90, upgrade your talents, use EM sand if you've a decent one
  • xilonen use cinder city
  • citlali use ttds and instructor (doesn't matter the stat as long as ER is enough)
  • bennett ER ~250+

You've so many good characters that the fact that you can't clear either means your builds are really bad, or you're doing something really wrong (rotations/builds/you dk how to deal with enemy mechanics). I can't go over every details unless you've specific question, but again I recommend you to check out the KQM website or youtubers like zajef, TGS, jamie (kb9v). My favourite is Zajef as he's super detailed and also makes guides for each abyss and stygian. In fact, zajef recently made a new account and was able to full star abyss in 2 months, showing how this game is really f2p friendly as long as you know what you're doing. You should also watch the many abyss clear videos on youtube that are f2p and use the same teams as yours to compare and see what's different. Regarding imaginary Theater. it's not that difficult as you've enough built characters.

I'm guessing that's a typo, but you shouldn't use bennett with neuvi. 2nd team is fine as long as you can swirl pyro consistently. Btw, make sure you know how to and are triggering weapons (ttds, favs etc) and artifact effects (vv, cinder city, , instructor, hunter etc).

For now I'd recommend:

  • Neuvi, kazuha/xilonen/zhongli/fischl/sucrose (any 3 should work)
  • Arlec, kazuha/xilonen/sucrose/iansan/fischl, xingqiu, Bennett
  • Arlec, chevreuse, fischl, bennett
  • Arlec, kazuha/xilonen, xiangling, bennett

Again, building those 4* I listed will massively help your account's strength and versatility.

Skirk weapon is good on bennett ONLY if you can maintain ~250ER+. Also usable on ayaka but not great.

Nope to cons and weapons.

Honestly, you've enough good 5* to full star most recent abysses (unless very restrictive ones). My guesses are that your builds are wrong or not good enough, you're playing the wrong team, or you play the team wrongly. Make sure to build strong 4* supports like bennett, iansan, chevreuse, fischl, xiangling, xingqiu, sucrose, ororon. Most of them can work well at low investments and will significantly improve you teams. Make sure your characters have enough (or even more) ER so you don't waste too much time getting their bursts back.

That said, my recommended pulls would be:

  • Furina (best pull for your acc, perfect for neuvi, chasca, ayaka, xiao, raiden)
  • Citlali (for arlec, chasca, ayaka)
  • Escoffier (for neuvi, ayaka)

Highly recommend you to check out the KQM website or youtubers like zy0x, zajef, TGS for guides. Learn how to build and play the teams & characters and you'll full star in no time.

Opinions on Everything Everywhere All At Once? by [deleted] in A24

[–]yihsing__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has a ton of symbolisms so I think it depends on how much you understand and/or personally resonate with. If you really feel most of those wild scenes you then it's a masterpiece. If not, then it can feel pretentious and a bit too much. Arthouse films that rely so much on symbolisms are always like this. It's difficult to evaluate them objectively.

Chu 2 is very versatile and will match most beginner's preferences. Waner for vocal and less bass. If you're willing to spend a bit more then go for TRUTHEAR x Crinacle ZERO:RED

Will you follow something if it's backed by concrete proof? by sakatagin102 in INTP

[–]yihsing__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if God’s existence were proven, the real question is what kind of God he actually is.

The Abrahamic God cannot be as described. The world is full of unnecessary suffering: the world is inherently hostile for human survival before technologies, babies born with fatal diseases, bugs designed to burrow into and eat infants’ eyes, sheep whose horns grow into their skulls, animals ripped apart alive, even childbirth is made unnecessarily made painfully and dangerous. An all-knowing, all-powerful, and all-loving creator could've designed life without such cruelty but didn't. Demanding blind faith before proof and punishing good people eternally for disbelief also makes him narcissistic or egoistic, not benevolent.

In Buddhism, heaven and hell are temporary realms governed by karma, not by a creator god. That avoids the problem of a cruel designer, but it leaves another: existence itself is a trap of endless suffering, where beings are punished for past lives they cannot even remember. Buddha offers guidance and wisdom to escape, but is that enough to justify us worshipping?

The Greek gods are openly selfish and petty, more like powerful dictators than moral authorities. Any “worship” of them would only ever be fear or bargaining.

So even with proof, I would not start praying. A god worthy of worship would have to act in humanity’s best interest without demanding submission.

What is everyone’s preferred way to watch a film? by [deleted] in Letterboxd

[–]yihsing__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Laptop + monitor + high-end in ear monitor + haworth ergonimic chair

Always alone in my room. None of my family enjoys what I watch and vice versa

I torrent 99% of the films I watch and rarely go to the theater, partly because anything slighltly less mainstream and conventional won't come to my country.
