Cortell,

Dim sum restaurant will ask you what kind

Pu-er, iron goddess, chrysanthemum, oolong, saumei, etc.

Cortell,

It’s fine as long as it doesn’t become a self fulfilling prophecy. If you think an endeavour will fail anyway you won’t try as hard because why bother

Cortell,

This is your daily reminder that Tiberius lied and there is zero archeological evidence of fallow farmlands in the rural countryside as a result of extended campaigning seasons during the Punic Wars

Cortell,

She draws herself as a naked art gremlin

Cortell,

It’s pronounced kwaSSON but in indignant french

Row over restaurant ‘wealth screening’ boils over in French resort of St-Tropez (www.theguardian.com)

The Nice Matin newspaper quoted unnamed insiders as saying that some restaurants in St-Tropez, a favoured summer haunt of celebrities and the international jet set for more than half a century, had taken to checking customers’ names against their database and refusing reservations if a previous visit was not felt to have...

Cortell,

If they want customers to pay more then they should just raise their prices. Oh but then they won’t be able to manipulate people into paying more than they want anymore.

Cortell,

Yes and some places (like Japan) are even worse.

They have women only passenger trains on the subway because they need to not because they want to. Those don’t exist in most western countries that I know of.

Cortell,

It’s probably fake but I wouldn’t be surprised if this has happened multiple times to multiple different people. Cycle of abuse and whatnot

Cortell,

But it’s just a feeling of progress not actual progress. Whether she moves or not there’s still the same amount of people ahead of you in queue. Plus it’s an airport you queue for the airline that you booked with there’s no decision of queue to impact. The only actual factor is whether or not it spills out past the barriers so she can periodically check and move if that’s the case

Cortell,

Yes and the whole point of the post is about pursuing perfect rationality which means only caring about facts and logic not perception.

Cortell,

Yes the point of the post is that a single person acting perfectly rationally will be seen as mad by a civil society which is also perfectly illustrated by people saying “yes that does make sense logically but what about my irrational emotional perception of time?”

Cortell,

It’s alright but not as good as the comics. I feel like the quirky dialogue doesn’t really have the same impact when it’s happening over 20 minutes vs a short punchy four panel strip

Cortell, (edited )

Lmao that’s the most reaching argument I’ve ever heard in my life. Won’t anyone please save these poor companies from being “internet responders” and help them from pretending to care about their workers and forcing their hand to actually do something.

After all the only change that matters is internal change. Conveniently the kind of change that the general public also has zero way of influencing so any time a company performs any kind of obvious injustice it’s obviously virtue signalling to mention it since we have zero influence on internal policy.

Much better that companies not even give an appearance of giving a shit compared to the world we live in now where the direct problem people complained about is now being addressed

Cortell,

Reading comprehension might be an issue for you if you can’t understand sarcasm

Cortell,

Not being able to read sarcasm you really do have a Reddit mindset

Cortell,

Wow would you look at that they even had internal policy changes because of internet white knighting. Granted we can take this with a heavy heavy grain of salt and their commitment remains to be seen but you’re just taking L after L

eurogamer.net/baldurs-gate-3-translation-company-…

Altagram goes on to list seven commitments it will adhere to in order to ensure proper accreditation of its workers in future, including the establishment of an internal crediting commitmee, improved transparency between clients and staff, and a commitment to the IGDA guidelines which were set out earlier this year.

Cortell,

Wow that’s actually kind of pathetic that you’re so wrong and you don’t have a life

Cortell,

I mean the fact that you’re so dumb that you think you need to open the thread to check for updates instead of just waiting for a notification that tells you if someone replies just speaks for itself

Oh and then the sheer arrogance of you saying that the people who disagreed with you was the reddit crowd when the top comment of the Reddit thread was asking “who cares” like you were is just the best cherry on top

Just to be clear calling you pathetic isn’t just a school ground insult it’s a statement of fact evidenced by your comments

Cortell, (edited )

Lmao the argument was settled when the public giving a shit has objectively helped credit the translation team. Hell the person who originally posted is a professional translator i.e. the closest you can get to the situation without threat of being fired for saying something.

What do you call someone who spends all day refreshing a thread on the internet hoping for a response from an internet stranger?

Pathetic. Hell you even BRAGGED about it to me. Like I said it’s a statement of fact. If you don’t believe me brag to your friends

Cortell,

Reading comprehension not your strong suit huh?

I’ll break it down so you can understand

I’m making fun of you for bragging about checking on your internet arguments and that if you told your friends they would also think you are pathetic

Cortell,

plus them asking gives a chance to say you’re on break or something vs them directly asking and then awkwardly needing to say “yes I could help you but I don’t want to right now ask someone else”
