  • "I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees," as the saying goes...

    Certainly does beg the question though, as to what happened to all those 'dont tread on me!', 'muh 2nd mendment' people who seem intensely concerned about their right to bear arms against an unlawful oppressor conveniently right up until one shows up...

  • The presence of active duty US Marines in their backyards? Oooh, no, no, I bet it was the national guard troops sleeping in (I'm assuming here based on what I read) whatever unlocked sheds or cabinetry they could find?

    Though, I suppose the more astute of them may have noticed his original coup attempt and raised an eyebrow or two...

    There's just so ~~much space for activities ~~ many possibilities

  • How did it go again... "I know pornography when I see it.", wasn't it?

    Which, honestly, is actually rather impressive as far as non-answers to things in general go in that it not only made the speaker simultaneously sound both like a condescending prick AND some sort-of super creepy dude who is waaaay too into porn, all while assuring us that these qualities gave them the necessary authority to... Identify porn, I guess? Ya know, like that wood book fellow

  • I mean, we're just gonna ignore how the Hebrew war parties were supposed to collect the foreskins of the men they killed then, I guess?

    What's he even doing with all those things anyway?

  • Be that as it may, I honestly don't see what difference that would make in regards to OP's point... While it is spmewhat rather ironic, their argument over choice of word(s) in this particular situation is - imo, anyway- not one of semantics, but more of localization.

    Either way, whether this is a language selector or region switcher (or any variation on such a theme for that matter), I believe the point OP was - correctly, if you ask me - making is: Whenever a UX/UI element is needed to prompt for proper display language, each language should be displayed however it appears in its native tongue as opposed to how it appears in whatever language is currently selected.

    As an added bonus, this also solves the problem of a user inadvertently changing the language (or forgetting to lock their workstation when leaving briefly and returning to find it changed to "help them remember to lock their station when not in active use" allegedly... not that that's happened to anyone I know or anything) and being unable to change it back due to not knowing how to spell "English" in Japanese, for example.

  • My theology is a little rusty, but I believe the point if it was basically to serve as one final, ultimate sacrifice - much like the ones made to Him for centuries before - one that would remove the burden of offerings in order to curry favor (ostensibly, anyway- practically we obviously know otherwise) from us going forward.

    I might be waaay off base tho, who knows 🤷‍♂️

  • Well, it isn't like he hasn't earned it at this point... How the fuck are you gonna spend the better part of a decade buying up a shit ton of studios - ostensibly to make you a competitive stable of console moving exclusives - to have almost all of them release what are arguably their worst games time and time again... So to compensate, they shutter studios who've just produced games almost universally lauded by critics and crowd alike, and then just say fuck it, we never even believed in exclusives to begin with, yet decided not to take a stand on it until... now for... reasons...? 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

  • Underaquaia? Seaunderia? Drownica? Or, my personal favorite: "fuck ugly giant cthulu adjacent heart attack inducer 2"

    I can only imagine the new PTB are already working feverishly to add mandatory for story progression, 30+ hour combined Seatruck and Snowfox segments, a minigun which mounts to the seaglide, and mats necessary for key endgame craftables which are conveniently available exclusively through loot boxes you can earn by sending individual dev team members your nudes or earn 15 a week absolutely free with your monthly Deep Dive Club subscription

    Also, from orbit the planet looks completely covered by ocean, but once you land it's like calf high at its highest... but there are still leviathans, for some reason. Because fuck you, that's why.

  • Look, I didn't want to have to be the one to say this, but since no one else is apparently going to: That toddler looks rough af bro... I mean, basically like a nearly grown ass man.

    Hopefully they land on their face and you can get it some of that sweet, sweet reconstructive surgery so it isn't fuck ugly all its life.

    Obviously, you look fine and stuff tho, OP. Don't consider my words a poor reflection upon your semen/egg quality. I'm sure they get it from their other parent. Now, let's move on before anyone points out that, best case scenario, I've now creepy ass things
