Bärbel Bas entspricht aber nicht wirklich dem Stereotyp der Herrscher Kaste. Eher das Gegenteil, sie kommt aus einer Arbeiterfamilie und ist wohl ein Paradebeispiel von politischer Beteiligung der Arbeitnehmerklasse.

Ich muss aber auch gestehen, dass ich froh bin um ihren Rücktritt. Ich wünsche ihr alles gute für ihr Privatleben, aber ist sie für mich eine große Enttäuschung als Arbeitsministerin und SPD Führung, grade weil sie so einen bodenständigen Hintergrund hat.

Ja, stimme dir da zum Teil zu, finde aber die Charakterisierung zumindest mal grob vereinfacht. Und der Vollständigkeit halber, sie kommt ja nicht nur aus einer Arbeiterfamilie, sondern hat ja auch selbst in ganz normalen Berufen gearbeitet. Den Werteverlust in der SPD empfinde ich ebenso.

Döpfner is the CEO and owner of Springer, a media group notorious for pushing a reactionary and neoliberal agenda. There have have been leaks of his private communication showing attempts to prop up the FDP party before elections via his publications. He inherited Springer media group from Ilse Springer. To avoid paying taxes, he invested his liquid funds into stock of the Springer media group before he received the inheritance. Because of the insane German inheritance tax laws, this meant he had to to pay no taxes on a multi billion Euro inheritance. Safe to say, he is a terrible person utilizing his media empire to poison public discourse.

A femtosecond is 10^-15 seconds. Tera Hertz frequency is equivalent to a period length of 10^-12 second, a pikosecond.

So with 156 tera Hertz a frame is around 6.4 femtoseconds.

Planck time is around 10^-43, so still some way to go until we reach the clock speed of our universe :)

Hope I did that right!

Not really, it's most likely a bad idea. I'm thinking converting most of the damage taken to elemental and cap out max resistances. I also contemplating doing full damage conversion to fire, since that stun as if doing 50% more melee damage node looks nice. In any case, it should turn out pretty tanky at least.

I was going to mention the German dub of the Simpsons, probably done by the same studio. There's a scene where Homer comes into Moe's bar, fully dressed in the Springfield baseball team merch and shouts "isotopes rule!' which they translated to "Isotopes Spielregeln!" meaning "isotopes rules of the game!". Pathetic (as Skinner would surely agree).

Looks like a massive patch, I am looking forward to it! Might even try melee with the increased damage and block chances, new flesh and stone, and changes to endurance charges.

On the other hand, warden ascendancy + the taming could give 1000% increased damage or 2000% with two of 'em. Hm. Wonder if that is going to stay like that.

I am flirting with Boneshatter Chieftain, because what could possibly go wrong?

Das sind alles valide Punkte. Aber letztendlich kommt das Geld vom Konsumenten und die traurige Wahrheit ist, das es die meisten einfach nicht interessiert, welchen Schaden sie durch ihren Konsum anrichten. Nestlé ist natürlich schon ein ziemliches Paradebeispiel an Bösartigkeit. Aber das ist ja auch nicht mehr wirklich ein großes Geheimnis und dennoch kaufen die Leute weiter Nescafé in Kapseln. Konzerne wie Endkonsumenten können sich ihrer Verantwortung nicht entziehen.

Ja da haben wir einfach eine andere Auffassung davon , was man von den Leuten™ erwarten kann und was möglich ist.

Das mit den 300.000 finde ich etwas sinnlos, aber ich stimme voll zu, dass Konzerne einen übermäßigen Einfluss auf die Politik ausüben, der nicht im System abgebildet.

Da Du dich mit der Thematik ja offensichtlich auseinander gesetzt hast, habe ich noch eine Frage:

Boykottierst Du denn Konzerne mit deren Praktiken nicht einverstanden bist? Oder lässt du es bleiben weil Du es als aussichtslos empfindest?

Ich persönlich versuche nichts zu kaufen, was mit meiner Moral nicht vereinbar ist. Alleine um meiner selbst willen.

I'm in the same boat. For sentinel/ kalandra I actually would have preferred that the characters are voided but at the same time they really tune up the rewards. Just being showered in recombinators and mirror tiles would make for a fun mini league. Sadly GGG never goes to crazy on the reward side of things.

Usually I try to create a low budget build to do all the "standard" content: atlas completion, beating the league mechanic, all bosses, anything but Ubers really, as my janky builds normally aren't good enough for those. I guess that is what I'll do this time as well :)

Maybe I'll try the new chieftain, though I am not sure he is going to that powerful. Hopefully new gems and balance changes will create new build possibilities!

Hm! So do I understand this correctly? My supported minions provide the linked aura? Some major D2 vibes coming in. Very cool, hope it doesn't exclude triggers as it seems very convenient with cwdt. So far my favorite new support gem.

I league start with my builds, I try to come up with something that can fund itself. For the most part it's fine, sometimes they are really nice even. Sometimes... Not so much. In sanctum I tried a Generals cry volcanic fissure berseker and that was not a fun time. I do the usual planning in pob and make sure the numbers look alright, but with new skills you just don't know how it is going to play like. I do love running this experiment though and it keeps the game fresh for me.

Controlled blaze actually looks pretty amazing, may have to play melee ignite after all. All in all the numbers of the new gems don't look too bad.

Minion instability will let it pop, but you will still need to manually resummon and reactivate the aura. Animate Guardian could work, the wiki states that there is some possibility with masked of the stitched demon. Maybe I'll look into that. I hope they patch it so that the minion can be summoned with the aura being active.

I'm fine with that! Less stuff is an acceptable price to pay for being able to play on the go :)

Thank you and everyone for your responses!

I am having a blast! I took the bait and went gladiator retaliation and it is extremely powerful. Haven't bought a single piece of equipment yet and can blast through yellow maps. I am using two retaliation skills in parallel and that makes for a fun combo play style.

I like all the league stuff, the encounters have a cool feel to them and especially the beyond themed camps with their buff afterwards are fun. I also really enjoyed the small changes they made to the campaign although I'm sure I missed quite a few.

Ach ja und Haferflocken sind auch super!

I read that as "I went on vacation for playing at league launch" :). I think the setting is pretty cool, it doesn't take itself too seriously and it's fun upgrading ones team even though I'm pretty clueless about it. Gameplay wise I can't really tell. Matches seem either way to easy or impossible to win. But I guess I just haven't figured it out yet.
