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
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.
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
Bro, carrots to chicken? Really? You literally had anything to anything to choose from here - while attempting to literally one-up a god, mind - sky's the limit and everything, and that's what you settle on?
Not rocks into gold, sand into heroin, water into a 40 year old scotch, pee into milkshakes; nah, that'd be fuckin lame compared to carrots into motherfuckin chicken! I mean, I get it, kinda, cuz I'm not into carrots and would prefer chicken in its place 100% of the time, but... I'm just sayin, compared to some of the possibilities that's like mid at best, prolly more like a sidegrade if we're being honest.
Oooh, every other flavor Starburst into pink! Boom. Talk about unlimited cosmic power
It was more denigrating, than anything, if you wanna go down that road, precious. 😋 And you seemed more than pleased to open the door to insults, so... I dunno, don't dish it out if you can't take it, snowflake?
And if it was just an understanding issue, I would've simply said you were ignorant, but at this point either you're genuinely incapable of understanding or being purposefully obtuse. Both are pretty fucking stupid, so...
I mean, I guess? I dunno, I kinda wondered that at first, but I'm also kinda at a loss at to what other comment that could be a response to as well...? 🤷♂️ I mean, it seems like it's at least in the right thread, mostly, from the context lol 😂
Science is pretty much by definition supposed to be an objective measurement of the universe, uncolored and unaffected by political or idealogical bias (those would be your "political censorship" and "funding cuts" you mentioned, since you're apparently having trouble following along...) Since science should be objective, funding based on idealogical grounds or the political censorship of research is anathema to science, as it is by definition not objective. I'm not sure how I can make that any clearer.
I'm not sure what about any of this has to do with me making friends, but let me know how attempting to be condescending and thinking you're clever while completely missing a simple point works out for you... Cuz I may be autistic, but you're stupid, and I know which I'd rather be 🤣😂
So, I guess just in case you're somehow genuinely unfamiliar with a nested comment structure (which, if so, you've got to explain your situation to me, because I honestly can't think of a probable scenario in which you aren't, yet it's 2025 and you also have both a device with internet access and the faculties to reply to me): That was what's known as a 'top-level comment', which means it wasn't a reply to anything, but instead a comment which can be responded to that gets listed alongside other comments which can also be responded to... Any responses to these - such as your question - get listed beneath (otherwise known as being 'nested' under) the original comment or post, where it can be replied to in turn. Collectively, this is known as a 'comment thread'.
It's almost like they get the 'flood' part, but not so much the 'flash'
