  • I used to live in a region where the city layout is almost square. A lot of the big roads are almost facing towards N/W/S/E direction, reading them in maps were easier. I had to navigate on my own relying map app because there’s only expensive taxis to go around.

    Now I live 512 km away, the city layout is more abstract. it’s also more crowded, but at least the public transportation are more accessible in lesser places. making travel around the whole region much cheaper. In this case I rely a lot on public transport map instead of normal map app like comaps. and somtimes reading public transport maps isn’t very straightforward.





  • in my case the game is only enjoyable for 3-8 matches, felt better in winning streaks obviously. But I’ve had terrible moments that keeps me up for 70-90 matches in 3 days, or about 3-6 hours a day.

    But recently character skins from every events are locked behind paywalls anyway, they don’t do skin rewards more often, mostly just charms, spray, voice lines, etc.












  • TheGamer came out of nowhere too. Back when I used faceboook almost a decade ago, I used to follow a gaming meme page. They post typical gaming shitposts of that era. They had massive followers, and big engagements.

    Then one day every shitpost they post is branded with TheGamer logo, the page renamed to TheGamer. I don’t remember the original page name but it gave me disingenious vibe from both of them, I suspected the page has been sold & ownership transferred to TheGamer.

    Back then I do have silly loyalty to stuff that I like, so I feel betrayed when they sold themselves to a sloppy article site.

    Every once in a while they’d post buzzfeed-type of articles from their website. I eventually unfollowed the page.
