I think we're back to the cucumber controversy. Or the mushroom one. Anyone being able to smell ants...?
I SO want him to lose by ONE single vote then... Even if he would probably never consider blaming himself for it. It would still be there in the back of his mind forever.
I wonder how it looked like when it was actually marked as a bikeable trail. I can imagine the amount of water changes throughout the seasons. Or years. Or aeons.
I never argued that. I wasn't even talking about the word 'ten' in English but the usefulness of the word 'ten' in base 4.
EDIT: I see where you're coming from: base 10 English also has a unique name for something that is not 0-9 or a power of 10 - however, the only reason to this is that they are from base 12. Obviously base 12 has unique words for numbers below the base. But not numbers above it (apart from maybe powers of 12). Which further proves the point.
"ten" is a fixed amount in base 10. A base 4 user may have an entirely different naming system for numbers above 3, so "ten" (which is written as 22 in base 4) could be twenty two, twoty two, dbgluqboq, or Janet. But similarly to how we don't have a single syllable, dedicated number name for decimal 22 (as in, it's composed of the number names 'twenty' and 'two'), they may not have a single syllable, dedicated number name for decimal 10 (which is '22' in base 4).
I mean, I didn't mean people were terrified of them - just didn't generally consider them cute/attracting/nice/edible. But we eat quite a lot of things because at one point desperate people had no other choice and found out it isn't even bad at all (think of lobster as a prison food in the 19th century).
And then there are people who just grew up with them around all the time or just simply different (some actually like spiders or snakes as pets, etc.). So yeah, matter of exposure is a big factor.
Or I don't know, kinks : ). I'm just talking about the average reaction.
I have some serious suspicion it's just evolution conditioning our brain to not try and eat these mofos. And maybe to stay away because some of them can give you a nasty bite (I mean, whatever that has way too many legs). Except people living under the most harsh conditions, having to resort to cricket thighs and locust butts.
Wow, you did the math like a pro! Thanks for crunching the numbers, I had no idea it would be that bad.
I wonder how that changes if we include private planes, helicopters and basically everything that humans fly directly or indirectly.
Back then, when I wanted to watch a film, I checked Netflix first, then amazon video. I only reached for other sources if it was unavailable at both. Now there are way too many platforms to pay for, and they are getting way too shitty to pay at all.
There was a time when I was even feeling good going "clean". Now everything is dirtier than I ever imagined.
I've been thinking about something similar (as someone who isn't a fan of rap/hip-hop). No matter how much I don't like it (the actual music behind it is too bland for me), it has the greatest potential to deliver deep lyrics with puns and other wordplay.
But then it got me thinking: What the HELL is holding us back from improving the other genres' lyrics, or actually slapping some decent music on top of rap/hip-hop music, and not just some bland base or short and repetitive catchy tune?
I love how nobody said any restrictions and the AI started to solve the classic puzzle already. It could as well be a boat with a cage on it, or at least a leash. EDIT: or a tame/chill wolf. EDIT 2: I'm silly, there isn't even a wolf. Just embark with the goat ffs
I have a digital clock with thermometer feature and a dedicated thermometer. I've been logging the measurements every half an hour for months. The clock is ~1.5-3 degrees off (or the other way around, who knows). Just be aware they are not always super accurate.
Yeah but I'd rather eat the shells plastic free.
A flaming house falls on him. Or, more realistically, a flaming Boeing.
On a slightly more serious note: I really wonder what's going on in your mind when you press that button and cross anyway. Is it just because "I don't care", or is there more to it? If so: what?
EDIT: In case it's because you don't care: why do you press the button then?
(No, I don't want to turn off ALL yellow dot notifications; ONLY the TFT one)
EVERY SINGLE TIME I launch the client, there is a yellow dot on the TFT tab. I check every item I can claim: they have been claimed already. I have clicked through all those childish conversations that you can have with champions. I have even checked my inventory. I am NOT going to buy the pass.
Still, after I close the client, EVERY SINGLE TIME there is a yellow dot on the TFT tab and it's driving me insane.
Where can I finally claim that hidden thing? What do I need to do to make it go away?
So the 2 guys I usually play with are champ2 and dia3-champ1 level. I'm also champ1. NONE of us were ever in GC, not for a single match. We play 2v2s and 3v3s, depending on who's available.
This season we got absurd amount of GCs in our matches. Both 2v2 and 3v3, but 3v3 seemed even more infested with GC titles. Interestingly, whenever they actually say something about their rank, they say they are GCs in another game mode, or that they played a long time ago. But most of them still do stuff that we have never been able to, and the rest is just as bad as us, or even worse (which isn't too rare). But this many "GC in another mode" players, suddenly, out of thin air?
What happened suddenly?
Before this season, seeing a GC title in our games was definitely a rarity. We saw ~2-3 every season, and that was pretty much it. Whenever we ran into one before, they actually played like a GC and they hard carried their suspiciously clueless teammates. This season GC matches are more abundant than the ones without.
Is it because the player numbers are falling so hard that Psyonix resorted to widening the matchmaking search, allowing significantly better (or worse) players to match against us, just to keep the waiting times low? Now that I think of it, as many GCs we get against us, we definitely don't see just as many clueless opponents. If it's not the waiting time, then why did matchmaking change so drastically? Is it boosting? Because that didn't just happen overnight between the two seasons.
What do you think?
EDIT: People starting ranked at a lower rank than what they had in the previous season also can't be the reason, since we would also be somewhere in low diamond then; it's the middle of the season, so I doubt THIS many people whould start their freshly deranked season now.
