Not needing to worry about getting run over when I walk around is a strange experience.

It’s a strange experience walking in Calgary - the sidewalks are basically empty since everyone drives. Walked almost an hour up Edmonton trail and crossed like 5 people lol

I feel USA is a bit weird when it comes to esports, sure there's communities around Dota 2, CSGO and LoL but most teams in the biggest tournaments are anything but NA and its not like NA doesnt have the population to have enough players.

Feels like the biggest esports are like Fortnite? definetely Cod and maybe Halo, but those last 2, especially halo, are barely esports material.

I mean, in Dota 2 and CSGO NA tams had issues finding scrims, that can't be a situation 2 of the 3 biggest esports games are in, and i'm not sure Valve cares about it.

I don't know i just can't find the actual reason for that to happen


I would bet the biggest 2 esports in NA (by viewers) are LoL and valorant, by a pretty comfortable margin

honestly had no idea that valorant was as big as it apparently is (not doubting the claim that it's big! just funny to me, i'm clearly not in the demographic for it and i think I know literally one person who plays or watches[1]).

Anything Riot touches tends to be big. It helps that a bunch of retired and/or failed CS players helped boost the scene at the start.

The fear on SF ultimate has to be the least fun thing to play against. It has like 2 screen wide aoe and lasts 10 seconds.
Arcane blink bkb and supports never get to play the game again. Probably lost a 30k+ lead to that when they had one rax left. Didn't have a hero that could catch SF so game was just over.

arc is currently the dumbest thing in dota 2, the best you can get is second place

yes, just tried to push into their fountain with 4 lvl 30 warlock golems for 20 minutes to kill the arc so we could hit the throne but no, pretty infuriating

would think that's an exploit that would be easy to push out like I dunno, stop the bubble from affecting throne or so that some of the bubble would have to be outside the throne so you can hit it

That was such a crazy end to that game lol I don't miss dealing with Arc Warden's in like every other game though, so irritating to play against.

I remember early on in Dota2 True Strike allowed you to never miss against buildings which was an [unintended?] change from Warcraft3. Honestly could live with the current Pierce being back vs buildings even at lower percentages.

One thing I was not expecting moving to the EU was that many non-EU sites will straight up not allow you to browse their sites because they don't want to comply with GDPR

My favourite thing about EU in recent times was how I think Facebook was unhappy about some EU legislation change and threatened the EU officials that they would pull out of EU completely if the change happened, and the EU just said "go ahead, see if we care" :D

Yeah thats such a dumb threat lol. Volunteer more to extract your nonessential service from our local markets, giving us an opportunity to run that service domestically instead. What will we ever do!

I remember when FB was running massive ad campaigns across London because they had lost so much trust after Cambridge analytica. I would be super curious to see the numbers but if I had to guess from anecdotal evidence I would say that they have lost a huge number of younger users.

FB is increasingly the abode of boomers and Gen X with a sprinkling of millennials. The youths have moved on to TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter (though who knows for how long with that site imploding under Musk).

I haven't had this much fun on Twitter at any point in the 12 years I've been on here. Just from a technical perspective, though, I honestly think Twitter dies by the end of the month

The crowd for this Navi vs. Furia match at the CS major is insane
