2024.05.29 09:55 Spooneater69 AITAH For saying a special needs girl won a speech contest out of pity

Ok so, I am in the eigth grade and our school does a mini eighth grade “graduation ceremony” for our transition into highschool. Part of this event is three people from eighth grade giving a speech to the student body and parents. I decided to submit my speech and I believe that I did impeccable in my audition, I was able to look up and give eye contact, was able to be breviloquent when reading, and my voice projected enough even without the mic.
After delivering the speech to my homeroom class and the judges I sat down and listened to the next speech. The next speech was by a girl who was infact, dyslexic. She was unable to look up at the crowd and even had to be REMINDED to pause during periods. It was to my utter repulsion and envy that the dyslexic girl was chosen to deliver the speech.
I just was at a complete loss I what I could’ve possibly did wrong, I had more achievements such as volunteering at a nursing home, being head of student council, being in the gifted program, having the highest MAP testing score, and being chosen to write letters thanking a foundation for donating to my school. Besides I am far better at reading and writing than anybody in our school, even my homeroom teacher said that I am to the entire class!
So I was rather upset by being beaten by someone with a disability and turned to my friend to tell her I believed that this girl was chosen “Out of pity because shes disabled” and one of the teachers ended up pulling me aside to tell me how rude and disrespectful it was that I said that, and said they needed to “give equal opportunities to all of my peers” Even though some of my peers are mentally… lackluster. I just don’t understand why they couldn’t include someone who can read properly, I mean I know way more about literature than she does! She couldn’t name a classic that wasn’t taught in school, like when I attempted to speak to her about the novel Catch-22.
Overall, I know it was probably mean, and i’ve prayed and wished and hoped on her downfall, but I really don’t care that its wrong because I was still sitting in the audience. It just felt humiliating that most people didn’t know how intelligent I am, and how well I can write! Plus, they said they needed a “good role model” and someone to “represent our school”, which the winners were ofcourse not. One of them was a dyslexic and the other a godless, hedonistic, sIut who has spent more time on her knees in the boy’s bathroom than she has reading. If this post gives you the wrong idea on how I present myself, I normally present myself like I care, I even made up how much I enjoy our new principal even though she is a dictator and said it like I meant it. Everybody talks about how i’m so smart, and how i’m respectful and funny and other things, so I have no idea what I did wrong.

2024.05.29 09:51 Taphies Insane bot spam?!

Insane bot spam?!
I put a poll on my story for my hair. I only have 600 followers, most are irls. I’ve had a few third party “bot” stalkers that I’m aware of, but on my most recent poll I got FLOODED with bots with the same name just 1 character off in username, all picking the same option??? What kind of attack is this and just why LOL? It’s kind of funny. I just don’t get why.

2024.05.29 09:48 ShuaChort MH3 Review of all colorless cards - A 10 year Kozilek, Butcher of Truth player's reaction.

My deck has been established and fully blinged out for a while and the sheer amount of must play colorless cards in MH3 is exciting and sort of dreadful. I could seriously swap out 30+ cards to accommodate the new cards and new synergies with existing cards. I'll be reviewing all the new colorless cards in MH3 and the commander cards. For context, I'm tossing in reviews of the Commander Masters cards, which had some fun options for colorless, but comparatively irrelevant compared to the impact of MH3.
Note on playstyle: The reality of bringing Kozilek, Butcher of Truth to a table is it can become a game of archenemy. While too weak for cEDH, less competitive tables dread annihilator. Often it's a solitaire-style ramp, ramp, ramp until you win strategy, with minimal interaction. To build this deck for maximum efficiency, you often have to ask this question of each card. "Is this better than a mana rock?" You often cut titans and other big flashy spells to get in a 2 mana rock or an ur-golem's eye, just to make sure your ramp to Kozilek strategy keeps on track. So pre MH3, I ran Eldritch Moon Emrakul as the only other Eldrazi above 6 mana in my deck. (Probably taking that Emrakul out to try out new cards)
Pre-MH3 Decklist: (and Pre Outlaws, need to add Fomori Vault, Cactus Preserve, etc)
https://www.archidekt.com/decks/6404251/unlimited_budget_kozilek_butcher_of_truth
Tiers:
God - So incredibly powerful, it's difficult to imagine a day this isn't in my Kozilek decklist
Auto - Clearly makes the cut, but perhaps with steady power creep, will fall out of favor someday
Solid - Worth trying out, perhaps makes it long term, but it's easy to imagine swapping out.
Maybe - Might be fun to try, but doubtful to last long term unless some synergy makes it passable.
Doubtful - Starting to get really suspect to consider including this; probably messing with your deck's consistency/power.
Unplayable - Can't imagine justifying this card, unless some new synergy package makes it functional.
*Table below includes reviews of leaked MH3 commander cards; it's possible other colorless commander cards are still to be leaked/spoiled.\*
Card Set Tier Function
Zhulodok, Void Gorger Commander Masters Maybe Cascade, cascade is tempting value, but seems very win more. This has to stick around until you actually cast another big spell before this card has any impact on the game. Mana rocks seem better for our game plan
Rise of the Eldrazi Commander Masters Solid It's hard to argue with the pure power of this spell and that you're a deck that could reasonably expect to cast it. Even then, you might wonder if you're better served playing a ramp card instead and increasing consistency casting Kozilek quickly. But it's certainly very tempting.
Darksteel Monolith Commander Masters Maybe Can't be used to cast Kozilek, which is usually the payoff your ramp is leading up to. Still, it could be a very potent mana rock in a sense. Gets more powerful combined with Skittering Cicada/Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter for casting value on every turn.
Flayer of Loyalties Commander Masters Doubtful If you're trying to lock an opponent out with annihilator, just run a haste enabler and cast your commander instead. If you're trying to outright kill with damage, it certainly has some potential for that, but colorless tends not to be a decks that trades blows back and forth and plays a fair game of magic. It's usually more ramp, ramp, ramp, you're dead.
Skittering Cicada Commander Masters Solid Flash is really changes how the deck can play and this is one beefy creature all for 3 mana. But is it better than a mana rock and getting Kozilek out fastemore consistently? Possibly.
Omarthis, Ghostfire Initiate Commander Masters Unplayable Weird and not what Kozilek decks are trying to do.
Desecrate Reality Commander Masters Solid Colorless can use some interaction, hitting each opponent is nice, and potential to revive is cool, though I've noticed there's not a lot of cards I'm excited/expect to consistently be able to revive with this. (Dreamstone Hedron, Hedron Archive, etc. are artifacts you could plan to send to your graveyard, but they don't have odd CMC.)
Calamity of the Titans Commander Masters Doubtful I generally dislike cards that do nothing if you don't have the right cards in hand. And fairly likely to do nothing when my deck leans more into Kozilek for being the finisher
Abstruse Archaic Commander Masters Doubtful Decent body, decent ability. I might be underestimating, but seems kinda awkward. Would I rather have Sisay's Ring/Ur-Golem's?
Ugin's Mastery Commander Masters Unplayable Again with manifest, not what Kozilek decks are trying to do.
Emrakul, the World Anew Modern Horizons 3 Solid Kozilek tends to not have much of a creature board state, so you risk less than other decks in casting this. And casting this for 6 mana is actually doable with this deck. Absolutely absurd. Though discard outlets are more restricted in colorless, Fomori Vault is a great new one, and Geier Reach Sanitarium is another decent land to accomplish this. Collector's Vault could be passable. Still runs into "is a mana rock better?" issue, but this is so much bang for your buck, seems worth it.
Kozilek, the Broken Reality Modern Horizons 3 Solid Seems wonky, but 9 mana seems like a nice surprise when opponents think you're one mana short to cast your titan and forcing your opponents to manifest and drawing 4 cards is nice. Draws you into more ramp. Still, is it better than a mana rock?
Ulamog, the Defiler Modern Horizons 3 Solid Exile half the library is certainly demoralizing and could shut down an opponent relying on tutoring up combo pieces. And if you can give him haste, the annihilator is much more brutal than even Kozilek. Seems unlikely to get the sequence, but if you can follow up with casting an Oblivion Sower, it's certainly cute. Is Ulamog better than a mana rock? Possibly.
Ugin's Labyrinth Modern Horizons 3 God I'm not over the moon about this card in this deck, because having a 7+ drop in hand is not a given, but the potential upside of immediately tapping for 2 is so powerful compared to the opportunity cost of running some other land.
Echoes of Eternity Modern Horizons 3 God It's so easy to ramp this out fast in colorless and double mana rocks, cast draw triggers, annihilator triggers… Annoyingly pushed card that's a no brainer.
Kozilek's Command Modern Horizons 3 God Colorless desperately needs interaction and this is an absolutely perfect card for colorless because it also easily passes the "would a mana rock be better?" test because it can also ramp if you need it to. It's a kindred instant, so benefits from Eldrazi Temple/Eye of Ugin. it can creates eldrazi spawn, it can replace itself with a card draw (and if you scry 10 or whatever, perhaps you're drawing a game winning combo piece), it can exile a creature token or something with higher CMC, it can mess with your opponents grave. Couldn't ask for more.
Glaring Fleshraker Modern Horizons 3 God In isolation, it's solid. it's sort of like reducing the cost of spells by 1/creating a treasure token per cast. That would be a fine card, but this goes insane with the right synergies. Goes infinite, burning opponents to death when combined with Mystic Forge/Sensei's Diving Top, cards that are great in isolation. If you cast Echoes of Eternity first, you get two copies of this, 4 spawn and 16 damage per subsequent spell cast. Not infinite, but game ending all the same.
Devourer of Destiny Modern Horizons 3 Solid Having this in opening hand should smooth out the cost of this being potential dead weight in your hand. (Not a mana rock) Something you can pitch to Ugin's Labyrinth. Not terrible, but not excellent as a top deck later in game.
Eldrazi Ravager Modern Horizons 3 Solid Cycling when needed, a super early annihilator threat. Some recursion possibility with eldrazi token generation… Could partially function as a sac outlet to sac Kozilek and recast for another draw 4.
Breaker of Creation Modern Horizons 3 Maybe Big life gain potential since it counts lands, hexproof, annihilator… Let's say you have lightning greaves out. I like the idea of an early threat to surprise an opponent who thinks you don't have enough to cast your annihilator commander only to get hit with this one. Still, might rather have a mana rock. Bane of Bala Ged is different, but might be better at that role anyway.
Null Elemental Blast Modern Horizons 3 Auto Only reason I didn't put this in God tier is because of the "Is it better than a mana rock" test. In some cases, you'd have been better advancing your plan (cast Kozilek) than messing with your opponents. But this is so incredibly efficient and can keep an opponent off his plan to buy you enough time to achieve your goals
It That Heralds The End Modern Horizons 3 Maybe As a cost reducer, it will probably only reduce the cost of at most one spell you cast each turn, unlike other reducers that will help you chain multiple spells each turn, like Ugin, the Ineffable, Cloud Key, Jhoira's Familiar… So it'll effectively produce up to 1 mana each turn. A 2 mana rock that taps for 1 might be better. The +1/+1 to the team is cool, but the deck usually doesn't go wide. Maybe alongside newest Kozilek, Glaring Fleshraker, Forsaken Monument?
Disruptor Flute Modern Horizons 3 Maybe Not the type of a card I like to include, but you could use it to keep an opponent off casting their commander.
Winter Moon Modern Horizons 3 Doubtful Always run Winter Orb above this, if you're going that route. (Since you're likely running all or mostly nonbasics, though you have the advantage of more mana rocks than opponents.) If your opponents play mostly non-basics, you could consider this too. So awkwardly, the more casual your play environment, the worse this card is.
Vexing Bauble Modern Horizons 3 Maybe Can disrupt certain strategies and be cycled away when needed, can be tutored with Urza's Saga… but you might just want to play another card? Seems meta dependent.
Idol of False Gods Modern Horizons 3 Maybe Benefits from Eldrazi Temple/Eye of Ugin, being a kindred artifact. Seems a little slow, if you're aiming for the second ability. But mana ramp, chump blockers… Not bad.
Urza's Cave Modern Horizons 3 God Tutoring lands is incredibly powerful in colorless. As a cave, can be tutored by Scampering Surveyor. Echoing Deeps can become a copy of this, which is notable.
Snow-Covered Wastes Modern Horizons 3 Solid Not really any snow payoffs in colorless to speak of yet. Scrying Sheets? There's basic land ramp that's decent, though I'm playing around with running no basics. Tough call. Wastes and Snow-Covered Wastes are two different land names for Monument to Perfection, for what that's worth.
Solar Transformer Modern Horizons 3 Maybe As a 2 mana rock that taps for 1, might be fine. Though since this enters tapped, you'd have to have an energy payoff for this to actually be worth it over running other 2 mana rocks.
Conversion Apparatus MH3 Commander Maybe A 3 mana rock that taps for 1, that can store up energy to tap for 3 later? Seems a little clunky, comparing to Kyren Toy or Skyclave Relic. But if you had other energy synergy, maybe.
Stone Idol Generator MH3 Commander Unplayable Not what this deck is trying to do, you're generally not going wide.
Horizon of Progress MH3 Commander God Unbelievably good, I've contemplated running cards like Zoetic Cavern just for the possibility of land ramp, but this is repeatable. And can even cycle itself away. Can produce colorless. Urborg or Yavimaya can allow it to tap for mana without costing life.
Lazotep Quarry MH3 Commander Auto Better than High Market, a card I already love? When needed, can sacrifice Kozilek to dodge problematic removal or sacrifice just to draw 4 more cards. Has desert synergy. Can even do graveyard recursion, perhaps bringing back a combo piece like Glaring Fleshraker.
Inversion Behemoth MH3 Commander Doubtful Kills walls and illusions, I guess? Really fun design/stat line, but doesn't seem to advance the game plan the deck is aiming for.
Talon Gates of Madara MH3 Commander God You can instant speed play this land (ramp) AND save a creature from removal/get rid of a blockeget rid of an attacker. That's insane. It's also a gate you can tutor with Maze's End/Navigation Orb. (also at instant speed for the bonus phase out effect)
Trenchpost MH3 Commander Maybe Between Cloudpost, Glimmerpost, Planar Nexus, Vesuva, Thespian's Stage, Monument to Perfection and Expedition Map, does this get there? Seems a bit dubious, but not a huge opportunity cost for the potential for lands to produce more than one mana.
Planar Nexus MH3 Commander God Tutorable with Maze's End, Navigation Orb, Scampering Surveyor, Monument to Perfection… Turns on urza tron, feeds Urza's workshop, cloudpost, Baldur's Gate (longshot), counts as a gate for heap gate, desert for a variety of effects…This card is the cornerstone of a new colorless land package, if you want to build around it.
Eldrazi Confluence MH3 Commander Auto Surprise! I flash in enough mana to cast Kozilek. Or surprise! You didn't block Kozilek? My 21/3 kills you in one shot. It's flexible mana ramp/chump blockers/removal/other niche utility. Absolutely the kind of interaction this deck craves.
Selective Obliteration MH3 Commander Solid Interesting, you'll never lose anything and at minimum destroys every multicolor card, so probably commanders. Though likely a lot of things will survive for each player. Seems solid, though awkward. Not a board wipe like all is dust, nor targeted removal.
Eldritch Immunity MH3 Commander Maybe Great effect, though not exactly needed for this deck; Kozilek dying is usually fine and making my creatures unblockable is usually unnecessary to achieve a win. Still, could win you the game, especially if going wide.
Spawnbed Protector MH3 Commander Solid 7 CMC for Ugin's Labyrinth. The eldrazi to hand seems powerful, though getting Eldrazi in grave is not always possible. (Eldrazi Ravager with cycling works nicely) 2 Eldrazi Scion each end step is nice, so it is a mana rock of sorts. With Echoes of Eternity, you'd get two of these and 8 scions each end step.
Twins of Discord MH3 Commander Solid 7 CMC for Ugin's Labyrinth. If void winnower taught us anything, it's that shutting off blockers is better than you expect. And this lets you choose odd or even each combat phase, so you can adjust to whatever is on board. Though the eternal question; would I rather have a mana rock?
Ulamog's Dreadsire MH3 Commander Doubtful Cute, but at 10 mana, I'd sooner go for a titan with immediate impact.

Help Me Choose A Logo for Reyn University
My team name is "Odyssey" after "The Odyssey" by Homer. The mascot will be a mermaid named "Bow" (Reyn Bow lol). I've toyed around with having her shooting a bow and arrow to really lean into the whole bow aspect, but I think it's too cluttered. What do y'all think?

2024.05.29 09:43 flamelordytheking Tips for lostbelt recollection quests?

So, I’m trying to assemble a party for the lostbelt recollection quests, and only just now realizing how much I relied on having leyline stones in order to revive my party for the hard bosses. I’d like some help assembling a party to deal with Qin Shi Huang. Here’s my box as of right now. My current thought is to do something funny with Kreimhild as a DPS, but I think she’s far too fragile to work during the buff removal round, which is when Qin usually takes out at least one or two servants (immortal team failed at this stage). So I’m not quite certain what I can do.
Any help would be appreciated!

2024.05.29 09:36 OutrageousWelcome705 What to do if a department head feels like an outsider in her own team?

For context, I joined this company Jan 2024 after years of doing remote and freelance work. I knew that this was a hybrid one and clear naman when I got their offer and also one of the reasons why I accepted was I also want to “belong” again to a team/unit/company. It’s different connection kasi when you’re working remotely for some time.
It was challenging for me at first because of course nangangapa and my role is in Operations and I amnthe head of this division. It’s a higher management role so balik sa tawag na “mam,ms” kahit super sanay na ko sa first name basis with my previous companies and clients, but makakasanayan din naman.
Now my dilemma is - of course makikibagay ka pag ikaw ang bago sa team and all but 5 months in, hindi ko pa din feel na integrated ako sa team.
Sure my manager, the highest ranking officer sa PH office knows I am doing what’s expected because I report to him development on projects etc. I also voiced this out to him and he said to give it time lang daw because established na yung relationships within the department when I onboarded and he also assured na the manager handling the teams is ok with this change (direct report ko si manager).
I’ve made efforts to have regular catch ups with TLs, I also go out with them (2x pa lang) when they have eat out, I’m present on office events and cheer them on etc etc, make time to chit chat when I’m at the office, sumabay sa lunch nila - but I still feel like an outsider. I go to the office 2x-3x a week, some of them are doing straight 5 days at the office then WFH the rest of the next months once 90 days onsite mandate is completed.
I’m planning for a team building for the whole team (6 teams, total of 30++ pax) to get to know them better and to see if ma improve ba - will I feel one with them ganon.
What else am I missing? What else do I have to do? Thoughts would be appreciated.

2024.05.29 09:29 SirMmmmm Communicate with the playerbase!

There is lots of outrage about the terrible state the game launched in. Bugs, crashes even went down again. Combined with underwater gameplay and a terrible non toggleable zoom. And what does the dev team do a post of we hear you, or we are working on it or an apology after being down so long? No nothing. Can you at least tell if that was expected what you guys are working on and if you hear the feedback.
My issues: -The movement game feels sluggy and slow -moves take way to long to come out -game feels underwater -the terrible zoom in with no option to set it to static -broken rematch button -we dont get back our old gold (especially people saving for the old expensive banners) -playing games doesnt increase battlepass -you cant try all the characters in the lab -you are forced to use tickets to unlock characters not also the ingame currency -no longer able to do insta neutral airs on the ground -only thing that is working is the shop -5 euro gleamium pack comes just short of the standard skins -moves come out to slow to link them -no communication over the outrage after hyping it up for so long
Can we get a response PFG? Since it seems at moment like your name should be money first games.

2024.05.29 09:26 greecevisa01 What did I see at the Greece Carnival 2024 – The Apokries

What did I see at the Greece Carnival 2024 – The Apokries
https://preview.redd.it/y4l9pmrzhb3d1.jpg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5e6d34defa09086ab5eb0c04a800d8ba39fc92ac
When someone mentions Carnival, the first thing that comes to my mind is the Rio Carnival. Or other carnivals in Italy or Spain. But, this was the first time I heard about the Greece Carnival 2024 – The Apokries. I was surprised to know that the festival was almost a century old, maybe more. So, naturally, I went to Greece to check out what this festival was all about. To be honest – I enjoyed this festival a lot!

Greece Carnival 2024 – A Hidden Gem of Greece Traditions

The Greece Carnival season popularly known as Apokries is an amazing time that precedes the Lent. Lent is basically the fasting period before the Orthodox Easter in Greece.
I saw that during the Apokries, locals indulge in a wide range of celebrations and wine. From unique traditions to amazing dances and communal gatherings, the Apokries was an amazing celebration.
Now, this Carnival isn’t comparable to the other famous carnivals across the world in terms of size or magnitude. However, in terms of celebrations and traditions, Greeks are not that far behind.

I Came Across 5 Carnivals in Greece – Visited 2 on My Greece Trip

I was pretty impressed that Greece had 5 Carnivals spread across 5 places namely:
  • Patra
  • Rethimno
  • Xanthi
  • Naousa
  • Galaxidi
Out of these, I visited the Patra and the Xanthi carnivals. Here’s what I enjoyed there:

1). Patra Carnival – One of the Best Carnivals in Greece

This incredible carnival is celebrated in Patra which is located just 3-4 hours away from Athens. It was pretty crowded and later I got to know that this Carnival alone attracts a whopping 2,50,000. So, that’s why it was pretty crowded.
But, you won’t be disappointed when you visit here. Because the planning for these celebrations starts from the previous year!
So, imagine the level of detail and execution that goes into this Carnival!
I had a great time watching incredibly unique floats made by around:
  • 150 Teams having 60,000+ participants in total
Apart from this, I loved the local food, the people and the entire ambience!

2). Xanthi Carnival – 2nd Largest Carnival in Greece

Xanthi is another amazing place that hosts a wonderful Carnival. This place is located only 2 hours from Thessaloniki. The Xanthi carnival is regarded as the second largest carnival with an attendance of 80,000 visitors every year!
When I visited this carnival, I was spellbound by the amazing fireworks show in the main square. The best part of the parade (according to me) was the Grand Carnival Parade. I saw some wonderful floats and hundreds of participants. The entire spectacle was a vibrant display of sounds, celebrations, colours and excitement!
To sum it up, I made the right choice of getting a Greece visa Appointment and visiting these wonderful carnivals. The entire experience was unique and I would love to do it again!
If you’re interested in attending this Carnival then I would surely recommend it for you. Just make sure to get your visa and plan your trip for the best carnival experience in Greece!

2024.05.29 09:24 theofficialguac happy anniversary to my first kpop love shinee <3 a long and detailed appreciation post

*this will be a long post heh*
SHINee just celebrated their 16th anniversary a few days ago and I was watching fancams of their concert and I just bawled like crazy. It made me so emotional watching them and I really wanted to write this post to share my journey with SHINee.
In 2011, my friend in middle school showed me this iconic music video and it was love at first sight. I was so obsessed with the guy in the all red outfit and that my friend was how I found my first bias at the ripe age of 14. I went all in with SHINee, I bought their first album on Amazon, The SHINee World, and I ripped the CD on iTunes and put the songs onto my iPod. And till this day I always go back to listen to Best Place, Romantic, One For Me because they are genuinely some of the best R&B tracks in all of Kpop. This is a great medley performance of their first album songs!
They were also the reason I got into Korean variety shows. From their iconic Hello Baby series to other funny variety appearances like this one. And their iconic SNL appearance where Minho's dibidibidis rap is made to life LOL
Also adding this popular clip where Jonghyun recreated their ramen commercial and he falls down and just watch the chaos that ensues after, Minho's laugh could be heard miles away I swear.
Because of their appearance on SNSD's Hello Baby I also got into SNSD right after as well. Throwback to when Key and Taemin were the fanboys of this VCR for SNSD's concert, it's so good lmao
I also will not let people forget about the iconic collabs that they had with their sister groups SNSD and f(x). They did Juliette with soshi here and Hello with f(x) here and this iconic one where Taemin kissed Krystal. Yes he really did that, 2nd gen wasn't playing with their stages.
But what was the main reason that I got into SHINee? It wasn't just because of Key's cute ass outfit in Hello but it was because the song was that f*cking good. It only takes one good song for me to get into a K-pop group and I can tell instantly if they're talented or not. So lemme get real into it, SHINee's discography.
They went on this show called The Muzit and did covers with a live band and I kid you not I watched this video like almost everyday back then. Key had that ridiculous Lucifer hair here but he killed the rap in I'll Be Missing You.
Everyone is always Ring Ding Dong this Ring Ding Dong that but what about my girl Jojo??? She is one of the best b-sides out there, ok just please listen to their vocals on this track, it still gives me chills till this day.
We all know noona neomu yeppeo but do we know the Japanese version where Yoona was the main girl and they had those crazy ass sneakers with wings on them and Taemin actually had more lines? No well here it is because she's a banger even in Japanese! While we're at it, let me introduce Kiss Kiss Kiss as well another great Japanese track by them.
The album that I really want to highlight is The Misconceptions of You Chapter 1 - Dream Girl. Why? Because they came out on stage spinning those mics like their lives depended on it. SHINee's back back, ok. Let me tell you why this album is a genius because in the first track Spoiler - Jonghyun included the name of every single song from Misconceptions of You Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 into this song. Yes he included the names of all 18 tracks in the song Spoiler. This song is pure genius because the intro literally sounds like Sherlock but then you're like wait what is going on, just listen to it. He literally gave us the spoiler by putting the spoilers inside a song called Spoiler.......Ok you thought I was done with this album, right? No I am not. They have a song on there called Sleepless Night and when I say their vocals will make you cry and give you goosebumps, this song is here to back up my point.
Other notable songs that I need to call out is Love Sick which pays a tribute to Replay both in lyrics and in CHOREO, when this came out I literally felt sick because I was gagged by how they are literally doing Replay's dance during the chorus.
I also need to put people on this beautiful b-side called Feel Good, literally put this song on and that is how you will feel. It's such a good track, and the 1 of 1 album was so SHINee and a perfect album.
After 2017, I did withdraw back a bit and it was much harder for me to follow SHINee the way I used to. But I always kept up with them and would check out their releases. From recent years I really wanted to point out the songs Countless, Kiss Kiss, Body Rhythm, Days and Years, and Sweet Misery.
I can't get too into the solo stuff because this post would go on forever but my favorites are as follow:
Onew - Love Phobia, Into The Whale, Caramel
Jonghyun - Hallelujah (omg this song drives me crazy), Moon, U & I
Key - Hate That, I Wanna Be, One of Those Nights
Taemin - Be Your Enemy, If I Could Tell You, this iconic Japanese song idk the English title
Minho - Heartbreak, Chase, Stay For A Night
Anyways SHINee has had an incredible career and they were such big pioneers in the K-pop industry. They captured my heart right away because they're such a genuine and hard-working group. Not only that but they have been with me through some of the hardest and loneliest years of my life. Whenever things were bad at home for me I would turn on their music or search up english subs to their variety shows or binge watch their concert fancams. Their music and presence gave me so much hope. I was never alone because I got to cry and laugh with SHINee while growing up. It was evident from early on that this group loves each other so much.
I was able to write this long post because of all the years of heartfelt memories I shared with them. I have all of these specific moments, songs, and performances deep in my mind. Somewhere in the corner of my heart, SHINee will always be there, just like how I have a mini encyclopedia page for them in my brain.
They're the reason I got into K-pop 13 years ago. I might not follow them as much and they might not be my ult group anymore but they'll always be my first love in K-pop. And we never forget our first love. I wish nothing but the best for SHINee and I will continue to support them wherever I am. I truly wish them the best anniversary this year. Happy belated birthday SHINee <3 OT5 FOREVER <3
I hope that newer fans can also appreciate the legends that they are.
And my last song recommendations are A-yo, Up & Down, Ready or Not. Their 2nd full album is kinda crazy, but in the best best way. And watch the Hello music video, I promise it will put a smile on your face.

2024.05.29 09:23 marinluv How streaming is ruining the watch experience for paying customers [rant]

We will start with a simple example-
You bought a subscription of Jio cinema to watch their so-called “premium” 4k content. You install their app on your 4K TV and going to start streaming the 4K CONTENT. That's when you notice that your 4K TV is not powered by Android or doesn't have a H/W piece which Jio wants so you won't be able to play the 4K content you paid for on your 4K TV which you also paid for.
The above example is not limited to Jio. All streaming services are doing the same in the name of protecting their content from pirates like govt wants to scan... [story for another day]. Forget 4K, even 1080p isn't available if you are a Firefox user. Their content is already being pirated, and people who pirate are watching the same content in the highest quality possible. But if you pay and try to watch the same content on Firefox or a device they don't certified, then you will be limited to HD (720p) resolution.
I buy physical media and can play that FHD disc on any of my TV without any issue, but the same can't be said for streaming. For FHD, you need Chrome but for 4K you need Edge - No logic here. Unless they are being paid by big corporations to force users to use their services by making an excuse in the name of DRM or protecting their content. I am not even diving deep on things like “Buying a content” ≠ “Owning a content” or their rent policy or how they remove the content which you paid for.
I don't pay for services except a few like Criterion. But I was recently setting up my friend's TV, and they bought Jio subscription for 4K content, but that didn't work because the TV they have is from 2015, and Jio don't support it.

2024.05.29 09:21 SJW_Shadow_Monarch A $WOWWWW fairy tale turning into reality !

A $WOWWWW fairy tale turning into reality !
The crypto world can be a harsh place. Rug pulls, shady projects, and endless hype cycles can leave you feeling like a deflated balloon. That's exactly how I felt after getting burned by one too many "guaranteed moon mission" memecoins.
Then, I stumbled upon $WOWWWW on Reddit. It wasn't the usual brash promises or outlandish claims. This one had a quirky name, a hilarious "wow" meme running through the community, and a surprisingly strong floor for such a young project (150k MC!). It felt...different. Intrigued, I decided to keep an eye on it.
Days turned into weeks, and $WOWWWW kept chugging along. The memes were top-notch, the community was genuinely supportive, and the price held steady. It wasn't a meteoric rise, but a slow, steady climb that felt...safe. Unlike the other memecoins I'd chased, $WOWWWW felt like a project with heart, built by a community who genuinely enjoyed each other's company.
One morning, things changed. My phone buzzed with a flurry of notifications. $WOWWWW was trending on Twitter, major influencers were tweeting about it, and the Coingecko listing everyone had been whispering about was confirmed. The price action mirrored my emotions: pure excitement.
I remembered the countless times I'd chased pumps only to be left holding the bag. This time, something felt different. This wasn't just about the potential gains, it was about being part of something special. I threw in a small investment, a mix of cautious optimism and pure belief in the power of this quirky, wow-loving community.
Fast forward a few weeks, and $WOWWWW is still going strong. The community hasn't forgotten its roots – the memes are still hilarious, the support is unwavering, and the price has settled at a healthy level. It wasn't a life-changing overnight fortune, but a steady, sustainable growth that felt...right.
If you made it so far into the post then this is going to turn into reality as the based team and community have big things planned with coin gecko imminent, multiple giveaways running as we speak and more to come , KOLs and so on, if I were in your place I wouldn’t miss this entry coz it’s gonna go to millions.
$WOWWWW reminded me that the crypto space isn't just about chasing the next big thing. Sometimes, the best projects are the ones built on genuine community, shared humor, and a touch of the unexpected.
P.S. This ain't financial advice, but with a community this awesome and a name like Wow'en Wilson, who knows what the future holds? DYOR and join the party!

2024.05.29 09:12 TheSilverSerpent12 Strongest build in One Piece with and without devil fruits?

One piece New world edition: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19i4tTji4IR-I9W7pKiK6Cc--j7Ofi412/view
Out of curiosity, how strong could you be as a starting pirate/marine/civilian?
With a build like this, how would you scale this to characters from throughout the series?
Strong Resistance (Blades, bullets, poison, haki) There are many more dangers out there than you’d think, but it helps to be resistant to a few of them. You are heavily resistant to some kind of damage or effect, be it blunt force, blades, fire, poison, or something weirder. The only exceptions would be the effect of water and sea prism stones if you have the abilities of a Devil Fruit, or a resistance to Devil Fruit abilities. This option can be taken multiple times for multiple resistances.
Grand Potential Although anyone in this world could theoretically reach the level of Gold D Roger, very, very few ever do, often finding their strength hitting a plateau. For you, this will never be a problem, for your potential for growth is as endless as the wide ocean around you. This is especially potent when you push yourself in combat, seeing your growth skyrocket, be it your physicality, skills, or unique powers.
Dracule Swordsmanship Few have taken their mastery of the sword to the levels you have, able to turn a butter knife into a deadly weapon and capable of cutting through steel with it. Not only have you gained amazing proficiency in most sword styles but with your mastery of the blade, you have become able to swing your sword with such skill and precision that you can use the very air itself as a way to extend your attacks, with none of the force behind it lost, cutting away at your foes from afar. With time and training, you could even one day surpass a certain hawkeyed man.
Haki Training While much of this world is more scientific than it seems, that does not mean the spiritual is useless. Capable of turning your will into a weapon and shield, you have mastered the basic uses of Armament Haki and Observation Haki. With Armament, you can reinforce yourself or objects and can bypass the defenses of those thought untouchable. With Observation, you can sense the presence, strength, and emotions of others. With time and training, you would be able to project your Haki without a medium to attack others from the inside or see into the future to such an extent that were you a Logia, even the might of Armament could not touch you.
Life Return The body is a strange and wonderful thing, and you are one of the few to have an unnatural level of control over it. By stretching your senses, you can control your body to the point where your hair might as well be a few more pairs of arms. You can also use this to eat a large amount of food, digest it almost immediately, and use the nutrients to quicken recovery time from days to seconds and regain your stamina. You can even use it to burn off any extra fat you might have. Who knows what other things you might be able to do with an ability like this?
Monkey See A rare gift, for your eyes are peerless in what they do. This ability will not grant you nothing so base as enhanced sight, but instead the power of mimicry. Should you watch someone perform an action, chances are that you can quickly learn to replicate it should you be physically capable of it. From swordsmanship to the Six Powers, you could even learn to mimic the capabilities of certain Devil Fruit users, though the supernatural will be far more difficult than the physical to replicate, especially if you don’t have anything else to help you along with it.
A Conqueror’s Disposition Though personal power and training is very important, in this world, willpower truly is strength. The strength to keep getting back up despite failure pushing you down, the strength to never submit to anyone, the strength to follow your dreams and enforce your ideals. You possess this very same indomitable spirit, this endless willpower that refuses to break, to yield. And with such a will, you now have the potential to learn Conqueror's Haki, a type of Haki found within a very select few people, Haki that allows you to exert your will over others.
Shining Nova So many new names and new faces pop up from everywhere, each one of them looking to make it big, for the entire world to remember their name, if only for but a moment. And yet none could match your meteoric rise to the top. Where others take years and even decades to reach their place in the world, you will find yourself matching them with only a fraction of the time and training they had. A simple man could match one of the Four Emperors with only a few years of dedicated and harsh training. And not only that, your reputation is an ever-increasing beast, tales of your exploits reaching far and wide across the globe, for better or for worse. This will also improve the weight of your actions, each one holding an even greater significance than before and more potent reactions to whatever deeds you commit. With such influence, perhaps you shall be the one to bring the world into a new era?
Germa Genetics Through the combined efforts of Vegapunk and Germa 66, it is possible to create superhumans through manipulating the Lineage Factor of fetuses, and you are living proof of its success.
You've got a crazy durable exoskeleton, heal at a greatly increased rate, and are much more physically capable than you should be. This strength of yours is capable of growing quickly through training. As a child, you could already outperform trained soldiers with ease, and as you grow, there's no telling how strong you'll become. Thankfully, you won’t have that nasty side effect of suppressed emotions, allowing you to enjoy the full spectrum of your passions.
Where would you put this build in terms of power?
