I mean presumably you could just ask ‘how do you know that?’. But also whats to say you arent just making it up in the first place and have never had peanut butter. Thats why you should be critical of information and find trusted sources.

I feel like this is probably due to the steamdeck and so much steamos functionality requiring steam to be running.

That cost seems incredibly high, how did you calculate that? Also what are you paying for a loaf of bread? Granted cheese is expensive so depending on how much mozarella you’re factoring in that could play a part, but im still curious about your numbers.

Okay but words are not math. Language exists solely for the purpose of communicating ideas, and if you understand the idea that someone is trying to convey and that idea is not false, but their word choice is inaccurate then you most definitely are just nit-picking, and its not in search of some greater ‘truth’ because the actual truth of the conversation is what they were intending. I feel like you’re conflating truth with accuracy. Misusing the word animal when you mean mammal is not false in the same way as saying the sky is green or the covid vaccine gives you aids. Words can also have multiple meanings, which lends itself to more than one truth. Theres the scientific definition, and as i mentioned, the colloquial usage. So if a majority of the population understands a word to mean one thing in one context and another thing in a different context, and you willfully ignore that societal understanding in favor of ‘scientific validation’, then you are again ignoring a form of truth.

Sure in some cases there can be an objective truth probably, although i doubt any of us is as close to it as some people seem to enjoy thinking they are. But i think what you’re missing (possibly intentionally) about my point is that if you know what someone meant then they achieved the objective of communicating, and by choosing to ignore what they meant and instead focus on what they incorrectly said then i feel like you’re consciously choosing to move the conversation away from ‘truth’ and toward ‘correctness’ out of some need to feel superior. There is a time and place to correct people, but lots of people (and you may or may not be one of them) seem incapable of distinguishing when it is not the right time or place.

Or they don’t care because they’re using it in a colloquial sense and 90+% of people they talk to would understand their intended usage, so they resent being lectured on semantics rather than responding to the meaning behind their words.

I mean if i was kyle gass id tell jack black to go fuck himself. He made a big fit over a simple joke when his whole shtick(before being a literal clown for Disney™) was being an ‘edgy’ comedian who writes songs that are supposed to be offensive.

I mean if your life started in 2005 and you didnt live through any of the 20th century, calling it the late 1900s seems totally reasonablr. You werent there when people were living through the “90s”, to you its just another bygone era that people speak about in waya you’ll never be able to relate to.

Still can also be used to mean “despite that” as in “i threw it around and it still always worked” = " i threw it around and deslite that, it always worked".

Except the difference between a person not buying the game and a person pirating it is literally nothing from the perspective of the company. Except actually, as many devs have found and acknowledged, people who pirate the game often actually result in increased word of mouth and publicity, and things like merch sales, not to mention many go on to buy the game later when they never would have if they hadnt pirated it first. So saying “just dont buy it” is kinda fucking dumb, because thats all theyre doing in the first place, and the only negative consequence of piracy for the company is a “potential lost sale” that never would have happebed anyway.

But you expect other people to use their free (literally unpaid) time to code what you want them to rather than what they care about or think is important. After theyve already made all of their work and progress free and openly available to anyone who wants to build off it. You have a fucked up view of the world.

So stop crying about it and tell us your must-pirate games already.

Moist. No but really ive always thought “sedge” is a funny sounding word.

Im not pro skub, but i am anti-anti-skub.

I have a lot of doubts about this article, but also i bet i could find multiple instances of churches in certain states taking down pictures of jesus to put up pictures of trump.

Im sure you could find a usb c camera that could easily be obscured or pinned to a lapel or otherwise disguised for cheaper than the price of a pair of smart glasses, or even just wear your phone on a lanyard around your neck with the screen facing your chest. People might think its weird but noone is going to second guess it unless your phone is in your hands actively pointing at them.

Get an air mouse remote. Theyre like 20 bucks on amazon and you just point the remote at the screen to control the mouse cursor. Mine also has media controls on one side and a full keyboard on the other, and only one set of buttons works at a tim3 based on which side is pointing up so you dont have accidental button presses. It makes it way more functional if you want to do even casual web browsing and the media controls are great for htpc apps. You can also use in browser streaming services this way too though. Honestly one of my favourite peripheral devices that ive ever bought, and super cheap and works way better than i wouldve thought for the price.

I mean yeah probably if it communicates who im talking about and why im talking about them. Theres lots of times when ill be talking about an actor and refer to them by the name of their character because i either cant remember or dont know their name, or because its more recognizable for whoever im talking to. But hugh jackman also has other accomplishments that he is known for and that he uses to further his career, its not just him marketing himself as ‘wolverine’ which is kinda the whole point. If he had never acted in anything else and did livestreams in his wolverine costume and personally sold wolverine merch and had a podcast called wolverine talks then definitely i would call him the wolverine guy. But also acting in a movie is a much bigger accomplishment than being a living meme.

And im saying its not at all accidental when she hired a publicist to promote ‘hawk tuah’ and named her ppdcast ‘talk tuah’. Its the identity shes chosen to adopt in the name of fame so she can lie in the bed shes made.

Are you serious? She brings a couple hundred dollars worth of animal food to a shelter (on a live stream) and you think thats actually something notable? She definitely got more out of the publicity and ads than she even spent making that video. Thats literally attention seeking behaviour. And yes, 99% of internet personalities are also attention seeking individuals. Anyway this discussion isnt worth my time, im not gonna give her another seconds thought.
