Teammates Overestimating Hwei’s Capability

does anyone ever feel like their team overestimates what Hwei is capable of when making decisions? I had a Kayn in game who was in jungle wanting to contest Rift Herald, with vision on only one enemy across the map, a hyper mobile assassin whose identity i don’t remember but im fairly certain it was katarina or akali, and she was at Herald. But one could also reasonably assume that at least the enemy JG was on it as well. He pinged me for help and I came from mid to help from behind and He dove. It turned out to be a mistake because all 5 players were there and it turned out better than you would expect. I got a kill and lowered everyone else to a health point that they would have to back without taking herald. Unfortunately Kayn died in the process, and afterwards i received a barrage of ??? from him. to which i pinged all my CDs and my mana at 5% because i was laning beforehand without time to back. he entered the chat and started telling me that i should have chased katarina (i’m certain that’s who it was now) into the enemy jungle to try and kill her.
TERRIBLE idea, and i let him know that I, as an immobile mage with no escape methods, would not be chasing a full team including an assassin into THEIR jungle to attempt to get a kill on the most mobile mid lane assassin behind Zed, and he was adamant that i shouldve used my E more during the 7 second fight, and that i shouldve chased katarina, and that i could’ve saved him from dying.
I’m sure that partially this comes from just playing poorly and becoming tilted in the process, but needing to ping my mana and my CDs seems like a common theme between a lot of games. does anyone else deal with this?

Unprecedented Extreme Lag Spikes?

For the past couple days now I've been experiencing lag spikes on league SO tremendously bad that entire fights are unplayable. i'm talking about lag spike so bad that they dont even register on my screen until they're over and my ping shoots to 3000-9000 and starts slowly going down. i cant log on until i solve this because i dont want to throw other people's games. Is it a known server issue? I've ran wifi tests from every known provider and my wifi never drops below an absolute minimum of 400 Mbps, which is pretty damn good for online gaming. my computer is absolutely FANTASTIC. so i know that's not the issue. literally the only thing i can think of is a server issue, but down detector has no spikes when im experiencing the lag.
Specs:
AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D 16-Core
DDR5 5600Mhz 16GB x2 (32 GB RAM)
AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX 24 GB
ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR X670E HERO
I've never even experienced lag in any game that wasn't having known server issues, but apparently league is "fine" right now.
are there steps i can take to figure out the problem if it's not a server issue?? im so clueless right now on what to do next.

EDIT:
Another reason I'm almost certain it's a league specific problem is that i also play overwatch and i'm not experiencing ANY issues (beyond mentally for playing both hell games). I watch videos with youtube, crunchyroll, netflix, max. I stream through discord voice chat no problems. i play online with friends in every game you can think of. NOTHING

Aliasing problem while playing overwatch only

Ignore Freja's... unique choice of makeup unless you also know how to fix that haha.. i don't know why a lot of things are happening. This happens on every champion almost.

After reinstalling Overwatch for the first time in almost a year, I decided to hop on for some games, but checked out the practice range first so that i could make sure my skills were somewhat up to par with what they were. Aside from my obvious skill degradation, I noticed that whenever i move my mouse to look in a different direction/aim, some weird Anti-Aliasing issue occurs where the normally perfect lines instead look like the game was created in the 90s.

Are there graphics settings i need to enable or disable to fix this? I don't have any performance issues so it's not a TOP priority so to speak, but it's pretty far up on the list of issues I'd like to fix.

I was too late to bit into the 4 day parking pass, and i really don’t want to pay a minimum of $240 for Ubers the whole weekend. Are there any areas nearby where i can pay for parking for the weekend or are there any kind Rockers™️ that DO have parking who’d be willing to let me ride with them? I’d be totally willing to work out the logistics like paying for gas.

Edit: im arriving at 2pm so hopefully someone who is going in around the same time. I know its super specific

Using the repo wiki, i get this or another one with a verification check box. they both want me to enable notifications. how do i stop this? I dont download sketchy stuff and i dont ever click the enable notifications thing. i know about all the popup scams and all the powershell verification scams. i dont recall ever doing anything that would do this to me

edit: for further clarification, my browser experience is limited almost ENTIRELY to informational searches using wikis/google, and also using trusted websites like google, reddit, netflix, etc

i’m allowed to order each piece of the meal separately, but ordering them together shows that it isn’t available. Each item is the exact same as the one in the meal, including the dirty dr pepper. Did the manager really remove specifically meals from the menu??

I’m really upset about the abrupt ending of Mage Next Door :( i actually really liked this manga and it sucks that it didn’t have the support I thought it would have.

They did the best they could to give it a 1 chapter ending, but it was definitely nowhere near enough to satisfy any part of the plot.
