What a weirdly wonderful magazine this is.
Banger magazine you have here my dudes
Greetings fellow summoners of the Fediverse. Imma try to contribute some content to the magazine regarding the upcoming jungle nerfs.
I've heard through that Riot is getting ready for a jungle nerf in the near future (phroxzon suppsedly posted some Xcrement on Musk's dumpster fire). What is the impression of jungle in your games and on which rank are you playing?
I'm in bronze and mained jungle the previous two seasons whereas I play sidelanes now (top atm but adc is fine as well). I get that jungle is very impactful by concept, but I feel like this doesn't transfer two low elo games directly. Here are my reasons:
So here's what I conclude: Your jungler will either play it safe and will be behind all game or he will try to get fed but he doesn't have the biggest agency about it if he's not a smurf that has a way better understanding of the game. So you'll just flip a coin and see if your jungler snowballs or the other.
If the upcoming jungle nerfs will target jungle economy again I'll suppose this will get worse. A better way to nerf jungle in regards to game health would be to reduce the skill ceiling in jungling; maybe it's a "Zeri problem" where better players are just too good for the role.
Don't ask me how to do this, though. Only thing I can contribute is that I've seen both sides of blaming jungle that I think the role is shit in low elo. I don't even jungle anymore but everytime our premade has a random jungler from the interwebs in our team I hear the poor guy playing just as bad as ourselves but of course he's the problem. If we win then of cooourse we carried like hell.
I love the whole macro aspect of jungling but I won't touch that toxic role anywhere soon. Toplane is so fun in comparison: You'll fight mano-a-mano and both of you are still reasonably fed after lane if someone didn't run it down completely. You'll get to play your first 15 mins in peace and then you'll join clown-fiesta and see how it goes lol.
Thanks for coming to my FedTalk
I hope I am not the only one with this "issue", but whenever I pick up my instrument (most of the time guitar) with a specific genre or style in mind, I struggle to write just something like that.
To give a little background info: I listen mostly to blues rock, hard rock, and alternative/garage rock I'd say. But for the longest time my music leaned more towards the blues rock side; slower (e. g. 80-100 bpm), very focused on the blues scale. These days, I want to create songs more in the vein of Guns N Roses, Van Halen, Motley Crue and the like but I struggle with the general feeling of those styles.
What are your tips regarding this? When I look up some actual songs, it's just I-III-IV power chord stuff or basic pentatonic scales again. So why do my powerchords not sound like that as well? Phrasing it that way makes it sound ridiculous, but I hope you get the point. It feels like I am missing the point that distinguishes let's say sleaze rock from classic heavy metal. Maybe I'm m overthinking it but it annoys me that my writing process seems to be very trial-and-error.
As the title says, let's hear it. What's the best underwear type for you? I'm wearing boxer-briefs and while they are generally fine, I hate it when the legs roll up and start to pinch everywhere.
What made me write this thread is that I am in the process of starting up a new rock band after a one-year hiatus.
Is it just my social bubble or are musicians especially bad at connecting digitally? I've been looking for bandmates for half a year and I am VERY happy with the mates I am with now, but the process was again tedious. In that timespan I found two drummers, one singer and two or three guitar players. The one drummer I've continued meeting with fortunately had a bass guitar player friend, phew.
Either I am too dumb to find them or there are almost no sites that connect musicians locally on a big scale. I've seen something called "Vampr" which was like Tinder but instead of fucking your fingering a minor together. Unfortunately that site was more or less dead in a 250 km radius around the area I'm in, as it just seems to be a thing in the states.
Then I tried to look for local Telegram groups that are for connecting between musicians, but those were also more or less dead.
Social networks like Reddit (rest in piss) or kbin.social do have communities around music, but they tend to have a global focus.
So do you agree that there isn't a consistent thing to connect with local musicians rather than walking around looking for jam sessions or similar stuff? I would be so happy I we musicians would be more connected through discord, kbin, mastodon, whatever. I'd love to hear your personal stories about this.
This thread might be a little ranty, but I am genuinely curious about the topic and a possible solution. Maybe I'll start a small magazine for my scene here, but god knows when this would take off.
Either I am too dumb or I would like this feature to be added. It would be cool if there would be a button where I can directly jump to the source link if I want to read the article first, after diving in the discussion or if I don't want to open the thread altogether.
Heyo, does anybody play Street Fighter 6 on the deck in here? I'm having trouble with really heaving freezes that last roughly 1-2 seconds every few minutes that won't go away when I turn down graphic settings.
It happens during arcadeode offline as well as in menus and cutscenes. The deck just stops doing anything for a short period of time the everything goes back to normal. Performance in genera would be absolutely okay so I don't know what this could be.
