NeatNit,

I genuinely can’t tell if this is really the answer google gives or if it’s just fake because this sort of bullshit answers have become a meme. AI doesn’t seem to show up for me (is it region locked?)

NeatNit,

Tarantism… is that a real phenomenon? I can’t imagine there’d be a word for it if it wasn’t a real thing, or people at least believed it was a real thing due to mass panic. But seriously, what the fuck?

NeatNit,

Yes, I was right about it being mass hysteria, but it’s interesting nonetheless

NeatNit,

To be fair, it calls then categories, not genders

NeatNit,

It won’t work with irrational numbers, or transcendental numbers even if you allow things like √2.

But honestly I have no idea what the point of this conversation even is

NeatNit,

“A human being sincere” is a nice little garden-path sentence :)

NeatNit,

I didn’t make any comment about what you’re saying, I saw your point and had nothing to add.

A garden path sentence is one where you read it wrong the first time around and have to backtrack to understand it, for example: the old man the boat.

“a human being” is normally a noun, but then it turns out “being” is actually a verb.

NeatNit,

Octal is base 8. Decimal is base A. Hexadecimal is base G. Any questions?

NeatNit,

I have heard that at least the main ingredient being advertised must be real and the actual product. So for example, in a McDonald’s commercial the patty must be an actual edible McDonald’s patty, but the vegetables and bun can be made of whatever.

NeatNit,

I hereby believe you without fact-checking, and may or may not pass this knowledge forwards, also without fact-checking.

NeatNit,

This is not an answer to the question.

NeatNit,

Digital ownership is still in legal limbo until either explicit laws or regulations are passed or someone sues and sets a precedent. Until then, companies can make up their own rules. And of course there’s the whole issue of every country in the world having to do this separately.

It’s not exactly the same question, but check out www.StopKillingGames.com for a campaign going on right now to get the attention of lawmakers and regulatory bodies worldwide (mostly in France and EU, where the chances are way higher) to fix the issue of purchased games being remotely killed by shut down servers. If you own The Crew you definitely need to check it out, but check it out regardless

NeatNit,

It’s still a continuous cost that must be maintained indefinitely after purchase, as opposed to just the upfront cost of physical media. Apples to oranges, but at the bottom line I agree that digital overhead costs less. What I disagree with is that this should necessarily mean the game should cost less to the buyer - at the end of the day you’re paying for the game, and you don’t care about the store shelf or shipping. These things don’t add value to you so the price you pay is predominantly the value of the actual game, which is identical in digital vs physical.

I’m not taking a side though, the gaming industry is the fucking worst. Steam/Valve is a scummy company that overcharges their fees simply because developers have nowhere else to turn, and this makes indie games especially untenable. They do provide a valuable service to both buyers and sellers (mostly buyers), but that’s not an excuse to be this obscenely scummy.

NeatNit,

incidentally, I’d like to cancel my parcel.

NeatNit, (edited )

they clearly meant diamonds as jewelry.

NeatNit,

Compared to their artificially inflated price. They’re obviously useful in industry - mainly for their thermal conductivity and their hardness - but their price as a jewel is complete bullshit. They’re not rare at all in nature, but one company controls all of them and uses advertising to drive up demand and public perception.

NeatNit,

it should be noted that on a home network tunnelvision is not a real risk, only on e.g. restaurants and stuff like that

NeatNit, (edited )

sorry but how is this world news

Edit: okay, apparently the sidebar says “no United States internal news” so implicitly this is fine. carry on

NeatNit,

These are some of the worst visual effects I’ve ever seen, and I can’t tell if it’s incompetence or fully deliberate and self-aware.

NeatNit,

All of them. The nonsensical overlay when he looks through the binoculars. The CGI shots of the crane that don’t remotely match the environment or look and feel of the rest of the footage. How the writing in his notebook is so obviously different in the two shots where they are visible, and how the amount scribbled/crossed out is way too much compared to the timing and audio of it. The weird bright flashes near the end that don’t seem to come from anywhere. Even the explosion doesn’t look right somehow.

NeatNit,

You definitely misread the question but personally I would love to know what you thought it was.
