No but what does that matter here?

Have you ever heard the tale of Ea-Nasir?

Oh I know how unions work, they're quite important and do mostly very good work where I live. I just always assume any unions that manage to even exist in the US are little more than begrudgingly tolerated by employers. I didn't realise they were referring to actual contractual obligations, I see. Thank you for clarifying.

If there were some external mind, one might at least speculate about its reasons. Which would probably be futile since it would influence those considerations too. Hm. Yeah.

The question is meaningless, the answer doesn't affect reality, unless you propose an external mind that is controlling or at least influencing our decisions.

I am absolutely on the voice actors' side here, but isn't this a less than ideal argument? It seems to presume a right to be employed. If epic don't want to use voice actors, why would they have to? I'm genuinely asking because isn't this just a form of automation? Again, on the side of real voice actors, anti gen AI, I'm trying to understand.

It is possible to be aware of something and to come to terms with its inevitability and still not like it one bit.

Edit: much like Tommy and his unicycle son! Full circle!

Give up, it's over, nothing matters anymore, meme now means funny picture. Language, uh, changes. grinds teeth

there has to be a slot between the two wings while they aren’t “streched”

Uh. Um. Your mum has to have a slot.

I don't understand what you're saying because I'm not a NERRRRRD and you're AGAIN questioning my primary school teacher and you're using a lot of numbers like a NERRRRD so I shall disregard any further comments concerning the topic of the width and height of German blackboards.

There. You happy? This should help you divide 200 cm (2 metres, the width of the middle part) by the number of letters in Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz.

Typo writing Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz

If you can't take this seriously for even one second and follow basic German Rechtschreiberegeln, you don't deserve any answers.

Are you... are you putting the word of my primary school teacher into question? How DARE you?!

Just the green. This is special German engineering high-tech space material whose name I absolutely do know but am not at liberty to divulge and that doesn't expand (i.e. I've never experienced a blackboard being warmer than slightly cool to the touch).

Okay, so, right, okay. Um. In German schools (and probably some other countries...?), many many years ago (possibly still today? or maybe it's all digital now? what am I saying, this is German schools), the blackboard in every classroom was a large, green, rectangular middle part and two square "wings", one on each side (as wings are wont to be...). They can swing in and out, providing extra room for writing on the outer side of the wings. Also for extracurricular shenanigans such as writing "[name] + [name] = SEX" in the middle, swinging the wings closed to hide the writing and then breaking out into hysterics when the teacher opens the blackboard to reveal your incredibly highbrow joke.

This type of blackboard is quintessential to my recollections about and concept of school.

Why am I going into such unnecessary detail about this? I have ADHD and possibly autism, I need you to understand what I'm saying and I can't find any sources of this existing in the English speaking world and I can't find an English word for those "wings" either. I can barely find a German one ("Tafelflügel"? I don't think it's ever come up before in my life).

So here's a picture:

The width/height of the "wings" and the height of the middle part, that's a metre. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Even among neurotypicals there is neurodiversity.

What?

Okay, I've been at uni for two years and haven't really achieved much (what with this weird heaviness I'm feeling and my job and all) but I can totally graduate this year. I can almost taste it it's so close. Wow there are people who've been here for 10 semesters and still haven't graduated. What's that like? Haha, 4chan is so funny.
