I’ve had to train my ear because I learned to speak spanish so I notice these things with my friends who are learning english.

The one that broke my mind the other day is that the D in drink is pronounced like a J. My friend was practicing his D sounds and came up with that out of the blue.

Sit close to me vs close the door

Even the second one isn’t pronounced the same. Some accents drop the th sound in clothes which is why they can sound similar.

Having to explain to my spanish speaking friends why an english word is spelled one way but pronounced another entirely different way gave me the same experience. So many times i have to tell them: “i don’t know english is just weird.”

This is correct but also glass blocks both ends of the spectrum. Really just visible light goes through glass. You get some near IR passthrough but not much.

Fuck.

Act 1 is a chore to get through on replay.

Good news is if you have the DLC you can skip the first act. The DLC start puts you in front of the Church in Pacifica after fighting Placide.

I like Cyberpunk a lot but replayability is shallow like you say. Sometimes I just boot it up to punch npcs though. Make a gorilla arms build and go ham. It’s pretty cathartic.

I’ve never assumed that interpretation. I always thought the gifts were given each day. So you end up with twelve partridges and pear trees at the end. The song says “on the nth day of christmas my true love gave to me” doesn’t that imply you are receiving all those gifts that day?

So download a user agent switcher and set it to show you as using chrome. This is what i do with firefox and i haven’t run across a site that thinks i’m using firefox.

They also charge you a crazy exit tax if you want to give up citizenship in order to save on taxes. They always get their pound of flesh.

Here in colombia a lot of people stream pirate sites instead of downloading a torrent. It’s just a culture thing. My guess is lack of storage space to keep torrents. Streaming goes to a cache that gets cleared out so it doesn’t take up storage.

Superb Owls kill squirrels too. Not just chickens.

Time to get off the internet, Dr. Jackson. I’m sure those goa’uld will show up in their spaceships any day now.

There are software KVMs that should work if you can’t get a hardware solution to work. I can’t imagine any issues with a hardware KVM and your setup as long as the cables and ports are the proper ones for what you have going on. Most KVMs are plug and play.

OP:

WWDITS is the best.

spend all that money in a lifetime

In thousands of lifetimes. 1,000,000 per year is a stupid amount of money to live on. If you “only” spent $1,000,000 a year you could live on 250billion for 250,000 years. That isn’t including any interest accrued.

People constantly underestimate how large a billion actually is.

Maybe the guy rebranded and OP didn’t realize it was the same guy.

I grew up in Maine. Deer in the road isn’t an edge case there. It’s more like a nightly occurrence.
