As the other person already said, not totally relevant to the discussion at hand, but I do find that bit of trivia fascinating. The processing power version makes so much more sense logically, but it was put to the wayside by production executives because they thought the average movie-goer wouldn’t get it, since computing was still somewhat niche at the time.

This one is really fascinating TBH. It’s like they did this after a lifetime of scrolling 9gag.

Like when they suddenly decided every single function of the car including those you’re expected to operate while driving should be under 4 sub-menus on a touch screen you need to look at.

So that’s a very common mistake to the point you could argue it isn’t one anymore, but originally it’s “Junglist massive”.

That reflection does not look like 123kg to me, how??

They didn’t say it didn’t come with any other downsides, to be fair.

Either that or folks will happily shovel the slop into their eyeballs and lose all critical thinking ability. It’s a toss-up.

World of Warcraft. I’m honestly at my happiest when all I have to worry about are dailies and raids. Unfortunately, that’s not compatible with family life, my work, etc etc.

Not a Brit but I would add the different pies/shepherd pies etc to that list. But really I don’t think you can not count the imported cuisine because I do love getting Indian, Caribbean, etc when I’m there. Even Italian TBH you can get some nice pizza (but not quite like Italy obviously).

The French use “Visio” kinda like a generic term to talk about a video call (short for visio-conférence), I find that much better already than that W nonsense.

I’m willing to do both, just not consistently…

I said I love science, not that I know it or can practice it, they’re different things.

2 dead and a historic church gone up in flames in Amsterdam…

So the actual equivalent is testing directly on humans.

What’s a digital lens exactly?.. The only thing I can think of are in some point& shoot cameras and phones they have fake factorial zooms that are just cropping into the resolution.

Apparently they’ve relaxed that rule… So a bunch of kids are saying “des chevals” and that’s supposedly correct. Fucking heresy.

Snows very little in the Netherlands these days.

Wouldn’t set my tent under there.

First names still haven’t let me down to this date, and I’ve done phone work in the past.

What a headache, as a non-American just reading this makes my frontal lobe hurt.
