H265 is a common video compression codec, charging for it is a strange way to encourage users to stay within their ecosystem.

“We’re not adapting the game, we’re adapting the books”
OK. So why does Garry sound like he’s from the games?
I’m confused. Do you think “Islamic” is a bad word?
I didn’t group multiple cultures? I grouped one, Muslims.
You don’t need to have an inside perspective to see that the overwhelming majority saying “Allah”, whether they speak Arabic or not, is a religious affect, regardless of it’s origin.
Language gets co-opted all the time. Atheists say “goodbye”, they don’t say “God be with you”.
This is the same logic I’m applying when I say “Allah” is Islamic; if a word gets co-opted to be ubiquitous outside of the origin, then the origin no longer matters within that context.
I’m not convinced that “bye” is “Christianic” in function.
I’d say it’s English in function, regardless of it’s origin.
In any case, you’re technically correct that it’s Arabic, but I’d say the fact that those who don’t speak Arabic still use that word - makes it Islamic in function.
Don’t non-arabic speaking Muslims also use the word ‘Allah’?

This comment scared the shit out of me…
My wall-clock was broken, and I looked at my phone and said to my partner “it’s not 9:11” and then five SECONDS later I got the notification from you “it’s not 9/11”.
That is fucking weird…
