Snails are used in some cuisines (France). I've had them. They're not bad.

I use (pause) "Arch" btw.

And let me tell you, you do not want to be roadkill with this administration.

I think the concern initially was that cold brew may be more prone to bacterial contamination than normal coffee, because it has lower acidity and the water used to make it is not boiled. But like the study you linked found, it seems to be safe at least when refrigerated.

I think I just suffered a mild stroke reading this.

Eh, IMO it's more like four methods stacked on top of each other wearing a trench coat.

I can say with some pride that I have at least co-authored papers with null results, and they did get published. I'm not arguing that what you suggest isn't true, but I have hope.

Assuming that "masterpiece" refers to the quality and impact the games had in their time (not how well they aged) some of my picks would be:

• Baldur's Gate 2 + ToB
• Star Wars: KotoR
• Morrowind
• Read Dead Redemption 2
• The Witcher 3
• The Last of Us 1+2
• God of War
• Shadow of the Colossus
• The Legend of Zelda: BOTW
• Mass Effect 1+2
• Disco Elysium
• Half Life 2
• BioShock 1
• Diablo 2
• Fallout 2

I don't know how objective this list is. Some picks are definitely subjective and fit more in a "flawed masterpiece" category of games that had a large impact on how I perceived games but that may not be so widely acclaimed as some others on this list.

Actually, this is Stannis Baratheon from The Witcher.

Null results are still results!

What do you mean? The typst compiler is open source. The proprietary stuff is just the web app, and it's the equivalent to what Overleaf is to LaTeX (with essentially the same business model).

That hbox is much more than 9.895pt too wide.

Never said it was undeserved. The devs did a lot of things right, and they deserve all the positive feedback they get. It just didn't click with me personally in a way that I felt like I needed to add to the hype.

It's pretty good, although I think the hype is a bit over the top. The game is well done, enjoyable, and plays a lot like a modern JRPG (think Persona 5 and others).

Reviewer 2 didn't read my paper and makes it my problem. Trump didn't read a book in his life and makes it the world's problem.

Preliminary gender assignment party.

This would probably matter more if every search for "windows 10 problem XY" wouldn't turn up 100% garbage from their support forums anyway.

Science is more like having a laser pointer. Through careful application and repetition, you could technically infer something about the location of the cat. But the cat moves around constantly and doesn't like you being there, and you only have limited time to do it, because the funding for your cat-finding project is about to run out.

My cat was already a batshit weirdo when we met him at the shelter. But that was partly the reason we ended up adopting him. He fits in, and we love him.

Shush, you, with your reasonable and well-sourced criticism of the decicent.
