Yeah I still rely on fansubs for all my jdramas that don’t get official releases outside Japan (which is still most of them). The quality is instantly obvious compared to machine-generated crap.
Cultural context and an understanding of tone and narrative coherence is critical for subtitles if you want to do justice to the quality of the writing in the original language.
No Mans Sky is totally a time guzzler. It’s incredible how easy it is for hours and hours to go by like it’s nothing. It’s a really fun game though, and I’ve sunk hundreds of hours into it.
I did one playthrough shortly after it came out doing things the way you’re supposed to, and then I decided to just have fun with it and started using a save editor to give myself all the resources that take ages to farm or craft. That was a game changer. It’s so much more fun when I can just explore and build without having to worry about not having enough fuel for my jetpack, or not being able to finish a building because I don’t have enough resources for that one last piece of glass, or having to salvage a fuckton of ships just to open up inventory slots.
So if the game ever starts to feel like work for you, I suggest using a save editor and going to town. The devs don’t seem to have much of a problem with it, and it really opens up the game.
Yeah honestly this has been one of my takeaways too, after hearing about these awful things a while back.
You never know what’s going on in the life of a stranger on the other end of a phone call, so respect and politeness is the best we can offer.
Covid is the reason, FYI.
But it’s of course way more complicated than just that, as they go into in the article.
They’re both really really close to perfect, and any native speaker would understand exactly what you’re saying with no problem, but I’d say them like this:
“I won’t be at my computer much today, I have to be somewhere.”
and
“It’s incredible how time flies! It will be Christmas soon!”
I use Alexandrite on my desktop and Voyager on my phone. Perfect experience for me.
Yes, exactly. People seem to be purposefully ignoring his answers. He has amazing message discipline and always gives, imo, the perfect response which balances empathy, morality, and political expediency. He’s an incredibly talented politician who has weathered the manufactured pushback, overt racism (fuck you Gillibrand), and criticisms better than anyone I can think of.
Also, I’m a Jew (not that it matters), but I think when all the ranked choice numbers are finally tallied he will have won the majority of NY Jews in the primary.
I feel you. It’s very expensive to be poor.
Yesss I’m all for this. I’m a reluctant iPhone and Apple TV user. I hate my iPhone, but I hate it slightly less than all the various androids I’ve had over the years. I’d love a place to vent.
Yeah this is why I’ve stopped using Craig’s List. Most of the listings, last time I was looking, were scams. I lost a few ”application fees” and was always ghosted. I’ll never again respond to an ad that has any fees whatsoever until I can see with my own eyes that the property is real. Hunting for a place to live sucks so much.
If a reporter won’t go to jail to protect their sources, then they’re not a good reporter imo. That’s like, a huge part of their job.
The other day I thought to myself, “huh I’ve got a few extra bucks, I think I’ll buy a switch 2.” Then I saw that zelda costs $80. So nope, no switch for me.
I’m someone who has never played a switch, never held one, and I was about to impulse buy it. So I’d be a brand new customer (my last Nintendo product was the NES), and now I won’t be. Their loss.
Holy shit, really? I didn’t know that. That wild.
Yep, same here.
Soldiers take an oath to the constitution, not the president, so all members of the military have the right, and in some cases have the duty, to refuse illegal orders. Source.
Yeah the title, and frankly the article, is shit. They couldn’t have made it much more confusing if they tried.
Johnson wants Trump to be able to bomb, this resolution would have told him he has to stop bombing. Johnson is against the resolution, so he’s okay with Trump bombing.
He also doesn’t think Congress needs to affirmatively act to give Trump war powers right now, which just exposes the fact that Johnson doesn’t understand his own role in government.
These immigration raids and terror tactics are terrible on their own, but it’s especially absurd when Native Americans get caught up in it, and it just fully exposes how disingenuous and transparently racist the whole effort is. So I’m sorry that your peoples have to suffer even more because of this racist mindset.
From a January article:
”If you can’t say, ‘we’ve been here for time immemorial,’ then you’re an immigrant. You’re not from here, so who are you to classify our Indigenous people? These lands have been a melting pot for many ethnicities,” Hatathlie [a Native Arizona state Senator] said.
I heard another more recent example of a car full of Native Americans being pulled over, aggressively questioned, and asked for their papers, but I can’t seem to find it. It’s utterly shameful how we treat people.
I’ve mentioned it before, but the single player campaign is worth this price. I frankly couldn’t stand the multiplayer, but the single player story is simple and fun, and has a surprising amount of content. Gorgeous graphics.
