I’d create an actual god with morals of absolute good that rules over humans with an iron fist. Political debates? There’s an objective answer and the god knows it. Do something wrong? Get warned. Do something very wrong? It’s brainwash time.
If it consoles you, I can explain the reason for that one.
They both come from the verb restaurer (to restore). Restaurant being the present participle in this case. In French, “ant” is equivalent to the English suffix “ing”.
And restaurateur is “one who restores”.
I meant English dialects.
I dunno if it’s the weirdest but “pronunciation” is pretty weird.
Why is it “pronUnciation” but “pronOUnce”?
Is this universal or are there places where they pronounce it closer to its spelling?
The depth of the stupidity of that is incredible to me.
You even get invaded by NPCs with “forbidden words” in their names. Checking whether you own game violates your criteria should be sanity check number one.
Invaded by Recusant Tanith’s Knight! -> works, it’s an NPC
Invaded by Recusant Dark K***ht Richter! -> Ugh.
And since those people keep their names like that, presumably they can’t even tell that their name is being ruined by the game. An extra layer of stupidity.
At least with stupid chat moderation, you can see your messages, so you know how your messages are being ruined and you can adapt to it.
Hah, I had the exact reverse experience. For years when I had a delivery they would come by once (of course not staying nearly long enough to allow me to answer the door) and leave a notice saying the package would be at their warehouse the following day starting at 17:00.
The warehouse was pretty far. The round trip would take nearly 2 hours by bus. And since they opening hours weren’t ideal, if I happened to have a class or be otherwise busy the one night of the week they’re open late, well I guess I’d better find a solution, because they’ll only keep it for a week.
I would plead with them. Can you come back? Can you leave it at my door? It’s not even worth that much! I’ll take the risk! No. At least one thing they did agree to do was keep my package a bit longer once when I realized I had absolutely no way of retrieving it in time. But they only gave me two days.
It was only when COVID hit that delivery companies started just leaving packages. Sometimes they just wouldn’t tell you at all about it, and you’d have a surprise when you’d open the door and hit your foot on a surprise package, if you hadn’t kept up with the tracking.
Some people complained, because they were scared someone would steal their stuff, but I was so glad they were careless. I’ve worked from home ever since COVID.
Finally, I can order a thing and actually receive it at home.
How would you tackle that? Unless you build a really intelligent system that’s allowed to interpret and reword and understand the significance (or lack thereof) of emojis in context, it sounds tough. Like, generally speaking, you just wouldn’t be able to tell how important an emoji is to the message, when writing an algorithm.
You know, it’s not always, but apple does sell things that are price-competitive with similarly performing competing products.
Some iterations of the Mac Mini have been hard to beat with a tiny PC with similar performance.
The M1 MacBooks had some surprisingly cheap options for the relatively premium laptops they were.
Samsung’s Ultra phones tend to cost more or less the same as the Apple Pro Max phones.
The main difference is sometimes just that Apple doesn’t make low-end or low-mid-range, or sometimes not even anything below “relatively high-end”, products in a particular category.
There can be a lot of reasons for that, but too much internet wouldn’t be my first idea. Histrionic tendencies, autism spectrum disorders, anxiety, etc.
It feels very weird to say but
I think maybe
the world was better when Trident existed??
It’s possible. But it’s a huge undertaking. If you just wanted to fully understand all of the specifications for HTTP, JavaScript and CSS, it’d take you days before having written a single line of code.
Then you need to write all that in a performant way.
Then you need to keep up with all the new features.
Then you need to keep up with all the new security threats.
Browsers nowadays are practically little operating systems. So the question is not that far off from asking what prevents you from writing an alternative to Windows.
You can. But it’ll cost millions, or maybe billions, to build something good.
That’s pretty impressive. I hadn’t even thought oral treatments were possible!
It’s amazing.
Are we both talking about the original game for Nintendo 64? Because that sounds like a bit of an overstatement to me if that’s the case.
Or am I remembering something wrong?
It’s clickbait. They do this because it brings in more income. I don’t resent them for it. Flying what they can to make sure more people watch it seems fair to me v
Doesn’t look bad at all, but aren’t Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi series RPGs?
Feels weird to use them as examples for inspirations for a platformer.
Feels more like Yoshi’s Island elements thrown into a 2D version of Super Mario 3D World.
Elden Ring. Welp, at least I guess i revive on death now?
It must have been over 5 years ago. It turned me off. The culture there was so painful. People would refuse to answer a question just because they deemed the premise of your question unacceptable. Or even recommend you change your whole project’s language.
It was like that both in questions and in chat. I never tried again.
Okay off topic but I had to Google “gubernatorial”. That word looks made up.
That might be good. With text to speech getting as good as it’s getting, it’s probably getting in the realistic territory, too.
