What game(s) do you want to talk about? Make a post!
To echo what another person said I came here from /all
A solid chunk of Philip K Dick’s output worked better as movies/TV than as books.
There’s definitely something there, but the books feel somewhat unfinished/unpolished. Which makes sense, his books weren’t popular in English until after the release of Blade Runner, which coincided with his death. Maybe the popularity of the movie would’ve given him more time and resources to revise future works.
A Scanner Darkly is the only one where both the book and the movie felt about the same quality.
The decision to use Adobe suite is more likely to be a company wide decision. Part of Adobe suite lock-in is also familiarity making things faster. By promoting others, that may help future generations avoid at least part of the problem.
Google services may be much more piecemeal. Even if the boss personally happens to think there’s a productivity benefit to using a given search engine, it would be unusual to block others.
Practicing what you preach is sometimes important, but I’m not sure how much it bears on these issues. A single company eschewing either won’t make a difference. Getting the public to slowly consider alternatives may.
True but I’d just like to sit and admire the word frugivorous for a moment
Maybe folks just like symmetry.
If your comments are going to gum up the thread with a segment that they don’t think will have any effect, what’s a few more to match?
It’s also worth noting that this is famous enough that Amazon has offered a service called Mechanical Turk since 2005.
The implementation and service are both fine in theory, but you do need to be clear that what’s being paid for is humans pretending to be computers.
Slice it before you go. Are items with bread not found in picnics?
Sandwiches are perfect for a picnic, and it’s an occasion you’d want to gussy them up a bit for. Fancier bread might be the cheapest and most obvious way to do that.
I think that’s part of the point. It’s someone’s job to make the original comic.
Removing the titular protagonist should ruin a work. Removing them here does absolutely nothing. It makes no more or less sense, despite losing a core component. One would hope a comic in widespread syndication would fare better.
At least with memes when they’re inevitably bad, it’s probably someone fucking around, not a paid professional.
Folks with aphantasia are also more likely to lack an inner voice.
I wouldn’t say my birthday in my head before responding. My inner voice isn’t so different from yours, except being in a conversation mine is silent. With typing as well mine isn’t always present. Typing on my phone I have to think the word to swipe it, but on a keyboard I sometimes just type.
This looks like the photographer was aiming for a shot without people, and took a picture early in the morning or similar. Notice there’s also a lack of cars on the street and pedestrians on the adjacent sidewalks.
When I’ve walked through the area there’s usually a lot of people around. Some using the park, some walking to or from the north end.
The neighborhoods to the north used to be inaccessible to foot traffic from downtown. Now they actually feel like part of the city and are a big draw for both tourists and locals.
There may be an earlier version, but I know this as an old Emo Phillips joke
I’ve run into it when interacting with folks who grew up in the south. It seems moderately common there. With folks who grew up in the northeast, I haven’t seen this be a thing.
You may have missed the point of the example. It asks about steering wheels, and immediately transitions to vehicles that don’t have steering wheels.
Yes! The Name of the Rose and Foucault’s Pendulum were both great. If you’ve read more of his work and have a recommendation for where to go next I’d love to hear it.
On the topic of Italian authors, I loved Italo Calvino’s “If on a winter’s night a traveler” as well. I didn’t really expect it to pay off as a cohesive work. I was mostly along for the ride and was pleasantly surprised.
Cheerios and Bugles (each separately). Nothing in either item should make them smell like death. But every flavor of either I’ve encountered always has. They’re not even the same kind of grain.
I’ll eat most ingredients in a wide variety of contexts. It’s pretty rare that I’ll find something that I don’t like, and can’t eventually find a way to like.
I’m not expecting them to be amazing, but them being substantially worse than bland and boring is still a surprise.
I had a vegetarian sausage that had a close-ish flavor recently. It might have been Beyond? The texture was surprisingly awful though. Far from inedible, but I’d expect all parts of the texture to be closer, especially the casing.
The ham used on pizzas around here (northeast US), usually isn’t salty enough to work on a Hawaiian pizza. It’s often deli ham, which runs the risk of being sweet, but otherwise flavorless.
Bacon or pepperoni work better. Jalapeno also helps.
Slightly hotter, but still quite tame take:
Ham is the problem with Hawaiian pizza. Pineapple is innocent.
Or worse: it’s in telephone mode now, so obviously you only want the sound from the “call” because there’s no other reasons the microphone could be on.
