Correction: Everyone is still allowed to make fun of American’s crazy politicians, there’s just more non-American politicians in the pool to also make fun of

I’m partial to Trick NOR Treat

Based on the highlighting they did, I believe their theory is that “livejournel” didn’t work because it should have been “livejournal” with an “a” and you presumably made the same typo all the time.

Might be app- or instance-dependant. I’m using Liftoff.

For those who want to know, that makes Xitter sound like halfway between Sitter and Shitter.

As an English speaker you can try to make that sound by saying the Y in YEET and paying close attention to how exactly your tongue is positioned and where in your mouth the air is being constricted. Then try to position your tongue as if you want to say “yeet” or “yes” again, but make an S sound at exactly the same constriction point where you made the Y sound before. If you’re successful, it should sound like a hybrid between S and SH to your English ears.

That’s how I make it anyway, actual Mandarin speakers might find issue with my explanation.

I’ve got an unhealthy amount of hours and money (games, DLC) invested in various Paradox games because I once pirated EU3 on a whim.

My Steam Library now contains CK2 with most gameplay DLC, CK3 with most gameplay DLC, EU4 with all gameplay and content DLC, Stellaris with most gameplay/content DLC, HoI4 with most gameplay DLC, Sengoku, and other Paradox games that aren’t grand strategy like Magicka 1&2.

And both my hours in CK2 and EU4 are in the 4 digit realm, though admittedly that includes times where I played in bed, fell asleep and the respective game kept running.

Your spoiler tag failed

I remember that in the days before I got a gmail invite, I very quickly learned to use Thunderbird for emails.

I heard a story and saw a photo of a literally frozen router (as in, partially submerged in ice) before. Didn’t expect a literally (deep)fried one too.

Is that website something like The Onion for games?

And the shape and colour of the exclamation point depends on which animal it is? As in a kitten causes it to be pink and the dot to be heart shaped while a bed bug changes it to a horror font?

Careful: it doesn’t work if there’s a user account with the same name

Yes, but there’s context about why I asked

In this regard, I’m probably part of the old folks. I’m older than the WWW at least. I just figured I’d try asking ChatGPT with context instead of Google because I didn’t want something I suspected to be Nazi terminology in my search history.

I was just surprised by how differently it reacted compared to when I tested it with alt history scenario requests a few months ago.

I quoted your comment to ChatGPT 3.5 and asked what you were referring to with “the 14 words”. I’ve never seen it take so long to answer, and when it finally did, it was like watching someone else write in a shared Google doc, including watching words getting replaced. Maybe my question triggered a reply by an actual human?

I would be surprised if she came into this position without being either a psychopath or a sociopath. As such, all that truth distorting wouldn’t damage her mental health. At worst she might feel overworked.

In short:

Very hot weather & no AC => window open at night => getting woken up at 5:30 in the morning by early morning trains => tired af

Volume is an indie stealth game I’ve quite enjoyed. In addition to the campaign it has a level creator, if you want to try player-made levels.

I’m not OP, but thanks for the tip, will check it out. Greetings from Züri Oberland.

I have no problem at all with either eggs or dairy, so it must be something else. I suspect it’s my brain registering sweetness and telling the respective glands to prepare for an influx of sugars which then fail to appear, leading to those headaches.
