Are these scam websites?

Hey! so I want some opinions on whether these websites are legitimate or not:

  • studioghiblishop (.co.uk) - I was particularly interested in buying shoes.
  • thejapanbox (.com) - I was particularly interested in buying a kigurumi (onesie).

I just cant find much information online, some text seems to be AI generated by then the product images are 100% real. Items I want are out of stock for months. If they aren't real can someone recommend alternatives (Ghibli inspired shoes onesies), thanks!

Guess my top 1

I’ve seen enough of these posts so I think I should contribute now 😅

My top one has relations to some of the artists here, if that helps. They’re not a complete curveball

Edit: No one’s guessed it. I’ll give a clue- they’ve collabed with one artist on this list, they’ve toured with another artist here, and they put #LinkinPark and #anotherband onthislist in their social media videos.

How to improve (like majorly lol)

Firstly I have no idea how to use music software

Secondly I have had no vocal coaching so I have no idea how good i actually am

My friend begged me to be the lead signer of their band so that gives me superficial confidence that I'm good but I think there is still a lot to improve.

I feel my voice may be too breathy? I think is a slight lisp as well. A lot of things I cant pick up on when I'm singing in real life vs the recording. Any exercises or guides that would be useful?

I also don't know what equipment I would need to the recording. Like an amp/audio interface? Better mic (currently some Sudotack model with two pop filters, like the foam head and the arm one)

I do also want to get into fry screaming so if you have learnt how to pls recommend any yt guides or resources you used would appreciate it. Examples of fry screaming I want to learn is Blink twice by Jutes, My Only Mistake by Hazel and Empire (Let Them Sing) by BMTH.

Btw song is Vertigo by Jutes. Thanks. If my voice is god awful be honest

How is the M1 MacBook Air for light gaming?

Budget: £300-£600
Country: UK
Use Case: School work (word processing) and light gaming (Games even phones can run)
Preferred Specs: 8-16GB, no real preference on the CPU and GPU
Notes: look below

Hello! I have a dedicated PC at home so I'm not asking to play the big cinematic experiences on it, I want to save those for my big screen! However I'm thinking about buying a laptop for school and would also want to be able to play some of my smaller games on the laptop too, but I have no idea how they would run since I know Mac has some problems with compatibility and whatnot.

Some example of games I may want to play are Minecraft, Terraria, Geometry Dash, etc. I think the most difficult game to run that I would consider playing on a laptop is Genshin Impact, thats probably the 'pinnacle' of what I would want to run on the laptop.

But Genshin can be run on phones, so I'm hoping that it should be able to run on the M1. Again, I'm not asking to play CyberPunk or Call of duty, and also the specs would be M1 core 8, core 7 gpu with 8gb ram and 256gb storage. Any information is appreciated!

Is the MacBook Air M1 still good in 2026?

Hello, so I am thinking about buying a refurbished Macbook M1 air for £309 off of back market. The specs would be Apple M1 8-core and 7-core gpu, with 8GB ram and 256GB storage. I know that the intel chip Macbooks are supposed to be bad compared to the M1 chips.

My question is: is this a good laptop for the price? are there any other MacBooks or non-apple laptops I should be considering? I am looking for a smooth experience to do schoolwork with, and the battery life seems to be fine. I would preferably want it to last a few years with good care.

more background info- I have an iPhone 8, but am upgrading to the 16e very soon, so a MacBook seems like a good idea. Any advice appreciated, as I'm not sure on what features I miss if buying an older MacBook compared to a newer model.

[OC] I finally broke 20K DPS :)

Just got C6 bennett and can do over 20K DPS now. Still building my team up, next milestone is 30K :)

u/Helpful-Yellow9660 — 2 months ago

Is talking stick good for overload team?

When in a team with durin, chev and bennett, is talking stick better than the serpent spine for BP weapons? Or are there other 4 star weapons better than both of these options?

Are any of the other BP weapons a 4star BiS for razors supports as well? TIA

Is this artifact a sign I need to build Noelle?

I neglected Noelle icl, however after using her in abyss for the no damage achievements, I really liked her gameplay. Then I rolled this artifact. Is this a sign?

Support artifact stats?

I am wanting to use a team of Chevreuse, Durin and Bennett, however if you have information on Nicole that could be useful to share too. I am wondering for his supports, what main/ substats I should be aiming for on each character.

Looking at Keqingmains guide for bennett, for example, it says to use an em sands if you are triggering reactions, however isnt razor the main reaction trigger? idk, i just feel confused, and every guide is either outdated or doent use BiS lol. I think the info could be useful for other ppl too tho

3 teams to slowly build?

Every team I try and find for Nefer, Xiao and Razor seem to have overlapping characters (Bennett being the main culprit) and so what do you guys think I should use. I think the three teams should include at least

1- Razor, Chevreuse, (Overload team I think is his Best)

2- Xiao, faruzan

3- Nefer, Aino?,

I have good investment into Xingqui, bennett, Nahida, and I think Xiangling would be good- I could get the catch for her. I've heard kirara, yaoyao, Jahoda are good for nefer. other than that, the only other characters i think would be good is Noelle as a shielder and barabra/ qiqi as healer.

Honestly guys I'm kind of buns so thanks for any help. teams I was using before was a hyperbloom (razor, nahida, xingqui and bennett) which did good damage until stygian/ abyss lol

I think the BiS for each dps would be (not including 5 stars i dont own, but including 4 stars i dont own)(i could be slightly wrong on nefer)

Razor-chevreuse-fischl(xiangling for me)-bennett

Xiao-Faruzan-Sucrose/Xiangling-Bennet

nefer-aino-jahoda-nahida

Anyways Thanks in advance and sorry for not pulling lauma for nefer please dont kill me:(

Hi, came back after like two years lmao and I'm gonna try and build my two teams, one of which is this Xiao team. I have a few questions

  1. Is this team comp even good? I guess its a pyro swirl team, with Xiangling as pyro provider and, Bennett as pure support and faruzan as some support I think. Xiao as main DPS obvs

  2. How do I use Faruzan? Ive seen her suggested on a Xiao team before (It was basically the same team but Xiangling instead of Sucrose) so IK she will provide good support for him. But I lowkey forgot how

  3. What lance should I use on Xiangling? I think dragon bane or Favonius lance will be best, with dragon providing better pyro damage w xianglings guoza bear thing (idk how much this helps) and Favonius providing quicker recharge of Xiaos ult, which seems more useful. Both are lvl 1

  4. It feels like Xiao takes a lot of dmg. compared to my hyperbloom team w Razor, his health seems to dwindle really quick if I'm not careful. Its not even dmg from the plunge, when im not using Ult hes still fragile. Is it just Pyro from Xiangling maybe? idk

  5. What Talents should I not focus on? because IK some wont be useful but on Faruzan for example idk if elemental attack is useful (Tbf idk how shes used in the Xiao team to begin with)

Team comp rn is:

Xiao- Primordial Jade, 8-8-8, c0

Faruzan- Fav bow, 1-1-3, c2

Xiangling- dunno, 1-2-2, c1

Bennnett- fav sword, 2-8-8, c2

I might be fine sorting artifacts, but any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help, main question is xiangling but its been so long isk what im doing :) whats this gadget reshaping?
