don’t like that dredgen bael kid much but when we bind VI to a host i’m gonna make them smoke thirty cigarettes at once

every time i get tired of counting something in english, i remind myself that things could be much worse: i could be counting in danish. or hindi

The French word ‘employer’ (to emploi) has the same origin as ‘impliquer’ (to imply). The former was inherited from Latin, while the latter was borrowed from it later. They’re called doublets. Stay tuned for doublets in Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, Catalan, Galician, Dutch and English.

i think i finally figured out what the target audience is for With You Our Love Will Make It Through. even tho its main selling point is a pretty dog boy, it’s not for furries. in this universe, humans exist too, so its actual thing is taboo interracial PDA

literally had this conversation earlier today about Node.js version managers. i said “i don’t use nvm, i use n.” what is n? it is nearly ungoogleable

zootopia 2 really hit us with the redlining crimes

huge shoutout to mozilla taiwan for, some number of years ago, rendering “klaatu barada nikto” as 不要炸飛這個世界

why can’t claude just read my mind

two choices only remain for you, ikora rey: my toxic yuri, or no yuri at all

i went with Solly to this Monkey King opera and it’s fascinating. it feels like a way to introduce an opera-going audience to the 16th century novel by leaning into its criticisms of institutions and preserving the coherent irreverence that comes from the protagonist’s identity as a magical monkey

on type safety

Phishing, am I right?

Bill Nye is short for William New Year's Eve

霉擇日報 would be a beautiful chinese localization for a newspaper called The Miserable Times

I've published a blog post here, with implementation details and metrics: recursion.wtf/posts/detect/ this may not come as a surprise, but it not spawning a new process via `-exec` for every file or running multiple `xargs` passes makes everything significantly faster

i bet it feels good af to get orchestrated by the Pluribus

there are at least 12 fast and furious films that can be contained entirely within journey to the west -- @kourge.net

貓兒房，近侍三、四人，專飼御前有名分之貓。凡聖心所鍾愛者，亦加升管事職銜。牡者曰「某小廝」騸者曰「某老爺」，牝者曰「某丫頭」 The Cat Office employed three or four attendants to feed cats of recognized status. Favorites of the Emperor received promotions: males were styled “pages;” females, “maids;” neutered cats were addressed in the manner of senior eunuchs.

Aujourd'hui j'ai appris la différence entre 'tengo duro' en Espagnol et 'tengo duro' en Italien Faites attention à la détection automatique de la langue dans les outils de trad, ça peut vite mener à des quiproquos 😅

pluribus dares to ask what if you could get free 5g for life but there’s a chance it could kill you

Wake/Stay Night: Unlimited Tea Works

With You Our Love Will Make It Through’s anime adaptation may have a pretty dog boy with beautiful eyes but why does its title card have such dogshit handwriting

If your game has voice acting, then working with the voice actors is half of your writing process. It's not complete until you've heard it interpreted and reimagined by a voice actor. And they always reimagine it in ways that elevate the writing, in ways you never would have imagined yourself.

sudden intrusive thought: stack overflow is just the oral tradition, kept alive by programmers who only know how to speak in posts

Sometimes learning a new foreign word immediately alters your neurochemistry, and today for me that word is 屁理屈 (herikutsu), which means sort of splitting hairs with irrelevant quibbles, but is most literally “fart logic”

In most of the world, in virtually every community other than WASPs - every community that doesn't have to do a geneaological chart to get into the D.A.R. - not only do you not have to be related to someone for them to be your auntie, you might not have even MET them and they're still your aunite

DEAD HAND RULE is out today! As an implacable enemy skitters nearer across the stars, Tara Abernathy gathers Gods and Deathless Kings alike to join forces. Of course, there's still a little fine print to be sorted out. But surely they'll be able to come together against the darkness. Any minute now.

Designer: all right Mr. Del Toro here’s those Frankenstein’s monster designs, real sexy just like you asked for. Del Toro: (nodding) this is exactly as sexy as I asked for.

javascript twt melting down over pragmas. please, my functions! they are very colored

another huge L in this experiment. i like the idea of flattening player generational wealth, but unstable cores have a strong "the middle class gets poorer" phenomenon. each hop into the next 100 power band jacks up the infusion cost without any real increase in legendary gear drop

i'm only halfway through Legion season 2 and i'm already stunned by how big of a difference it makes to cast Navid Negahban to play amahl farouk / the shadow king in S1 he is david's torment, constantly wearing difference faces, but in S2 he shows a dangerously charming side with his own face

after finishing tron ares, my homie and i struggled to think of good things we could say about it beyond: - music - visuals - greta lee’s character arc worse, afterwards we booted up tron legacy and then just watched it to the end because that’s how well it holds up

for every post someone makes that is in any way related to “being mean to AI”, one of their 5 most recent interactions with a person doing customer service should be chosen at random and appended to said post

it might look like i just heard a cognitohazard but don't worry, my brain has already begun playing the song Sankarin Tango performed by the award-winning finnish actor and singer Martti Suosalo, so i will be fine
