Maybe my taste buds aren’t refined but I can’t tell the difference

There is practically no difference unless you fully defreeze it in a microwave which will usually make it feel soggy. However you can get it mostly defrosted in the microwave, and finish the job in an oven, and it will basically feel like fresh bread

“Vous” is the first one that comes to mind in french. But since it is also a more formal (and/or “respectful”) version of “tu/toi”, it can both designate a group of people or a single person, depending on the context (just like “you” in English). Sometimes people will use “vous tous” (literally “you all”) to make this clear.

It is a little better than the “you” situation in English since if you are speaking with someone that is not using the singular form of “vous” to speak about you (which is basically anyone you are familiar with unless they are your boss or In-laws and kind of oldschool), it is instantly clear what they mean at least.

Also, a lot of kids don’t have the slightest idea of what the “save” icon in their apps represents. They just know it’s the save icon because it’s everywhere

Bethesda has some serious issues they need to sort out with their production pipelines

That’s a strange way to spell “Todd Howard” /s

Has to be a New Blood game

Edit: actually it’s in the screenshot : Dusk

(I’m generally not a fan of Cloudflare, because its man-in-the-middle position between users and services has grown to an unhealthy scale, making it ripe for dragnet surveillance and other abuses. But it would be even worse if it was actively helping these greedy, predatory corporations dodge the law.)

You cannot convince me that it’s not literally a NSA front at this point.

its not normative womans, gays and trans people.

Not broad enough. When “gamers” say that something is political, what they mean is that it contains politics they disagree with. The ones you cited just happen to be the things they easily recognize because their favorite right wing grifter is raging about them 24/7.
As you also said, they usually don’t have the media literacy required to recognize more subtle political messages, which can be pretty funny. I remember when Disco Elysium was first released and they were very confused because it contains some actual, pretty deep political reflections

The old-school way, which is basically just overlaying an image with transparency over another one (in this case I also had to crop the template I found because it was the one with the 2 guys, and I used some online image editor tool but paint.net or gimp would have done the job if I had bothered to install them). I just searched “soyjack pointing template transparency PNG” in duckduckgo images search for the template.

These weapon handling animations look gorgeous. Hope they’re not faked for the trailer.

Basically me when I saw that one :

Any IP escaping Take Two’s claws is good news

Seasoning my oven like the cast iron diehards season their skillets

I saw a city maintenance guy with an electric leaf blower for the first time ever the other day. It was a beautiful sunny day too so I felt like I was looking at one of these utopic cities animations for a second

The “without an MS account” is the hard part. Don’t you have to basically use a hidden debug feature to actually do that on install in windows 11 ? And then if it’s anything like windows 10, they might trick you into tying the OS to your account if you log into it for visual studio/office/Windows store or whatever, that happened to me on my laptop and it was a major pain in the ass to revert

Don’t assume even your own country is trustworthy in this.

My country is one of the world leaders in mass spying software development and even gave themselves the right to basically do deep packet inspections on everything going through it a long time ago, so…

Hah ! That means I own the only unlicked launch copy of BotW in the world ! DM me your offers, starting at $1 million, serious people only, I know what I have /s

Academics : exists

This fucking guy : “no one in the entire world knows when nuclear power was first theorized, and then confirmed by several experiments”

Honestly, as a Metroid series fan, the OG was kinda bad (but tried something that was quite new for the time). Return of Samus was ok, especially considering that it was a Gameboy game. Then Super Metroid absolutely knocked it out of the park. The only thing that feels off when playing it today are the somewhat finicky movements

I don’t send many mails for work, but I do that with slack by sending a link to the first message

Excuse me, what the fuck ? By saying that killing said innocent civilians was avoidable and accomplishes nothing, I am defending the terrorists now ? Can you at least try to feign some intellectual honesty if we’re gonna argue ?

Right, and since Israel has one of the best intelligence agencies on the planet and access to precision guided bombs they couldn’t figure out how to blow up these guys without civilian casualties.
