  • That's nothing new.

    Gamers who don't know any programming, or maybe made a little utility for themselves. Looovee to bring out the old "just change one line of code", "just add this model", etc. to alter something in a game.

    They literally do not understand how complex systems become, specially in online multiplayer games. Riot had issues with their spaghetti code, and people were crawling over eachother to explain how "easy" it would be to just change an ability. Without realizing that it could impact and potentially break half a dozen other abilities.

  • GONK

  • Yes. The GNK-series droids are the most famous among the power droids. Those are literally walking generators and power banks. There is a heavy version PLNK(plunk) series with four legs. Both of which have a flat top, so you can use it to put things on them.

    They have been modified as weapons during some encounters. Where they would just walk straight ahead and explode when it collided with something.

    There's also rumours of a "Cult of the Power Droids". Where a group of gonk robots would show up at night and ask for donations. And the best way to get rid of them, is to say "Gonk. Gonk. Gonk ko kyenga see", which is apparently so rude it can't legally be translated to basic(galactic basic standard, aka "english").

  • Classic joke, but what I find interesting is that the people who say it with conviction. Tend to be the kind of people who are into knights, swords and things like that. And they're so invested in not being wrong, that they literally don't consider the whole "forging metal with coal" aspect.

  • Beetle = beetle.

    budgie smuggler = tight underwear/speedo

    chop, chomp = bite


    Animals tend to seek high-ground during floods, to avoid drowning. Doesn't matter if it's a human or a tree, so beetles and spiders climb him and hide. Although he's happy that it's beetles and not snakes.

  • He talked about it publically, and there was a business delegation sent there, but no formal dialogue was initiated. So no actual offers made.

    You have to remember that they are incompetent. They didn't know they had to reach out and start making offers, drawing up paperwork, etc. Although they will probably try to save face by proudly claiming they were never really interested in the first place. And the sheep will cheer on his genius business strategy of not getting anything.

  • In the US medicaid starts at 65, but you can get lucky and have workplace pension that start early. You only get "full retirement" with Social Security/state pension if you wait until 67 and many wait until then. Which seems similar to Denmark.

  • If I am going to be completely honest, part of their outsourcing is why I waited until a few days ago to start the game.

    Not because I knew, but because the initial screenshots and clips showed a very generic unreal engine level of graphics. With chromatic abberation everywhere, the exact same hair you see in every recent UE game, the same facial style that makes it easier to match mouth movements, and so on. Once I heard it actually had a good story I ended up putting in about ten hours in a day after I started. But they did suffer from outsourcing parts of the game.

  • Cruelty

    Jump
  • Around about there yeah, they can get up about 15kg but most are smaller. There are videos of people grabbing them by the neck and putting them back in the water.

    But people love to overplay geese and swans as these powerful beasts because of how aggressive and loud they are, and that they can cause bleeding and such with their beak. Some even throw around the idea that they can break your arm. Meanwhile their bones are much smaller and honeycombed. They're about the strength of a really stale breadstick.

  • Then you have pacific salmon, where they dump the eggs and semen in a pit in a river, and both die shortly after. Giving a whole host of meanings to "dropped off".

    Or the turtles who bury eggs on a beach and never go back.

  • How much longer until we have to provide our ID or biometrics to use the Internet or apps?

    That's already a thing in some places.

    In parts of Europe you have to "prove" that you're over 18 to watch videos that are age restricted on youtube. By doing something like a $0 credit card purchase on your google account.

    And Discord has been talking about facial reckognition age verification in the UK over their new "sensitive content" regulation. So it would block that content if not approved via that or other thing(like digital purchase or national ID).
