Probably.

Averageman would a great comic book character. Paired with Narcolepsy man and procrastination boy and it writes itself. Gender flip to your preference. Actually Genderflip is now the Villain(ess).

since several USA universities are in the top schools worldwide then clearly they’re going to accept the most qualified applicants from all over the world
Only for teaching and research. The only reason for undergraduates to be foreign is because they pay more.

have you guys forgotten what ‘Ivy league’ actually means
“Planting the ivy” was a customary class day ceremony at many colleges in the 1800s.
The “league” part is related to Athletic events between schools.
What was your point?

Can you expand? I thought it was pretty much shot for shot, except the exchange of common external enemy and exclusion of pirates.
- Comment on ‘The Wheel Of Time’ Canceled By Prime Video After 3 Seasons 4 days ago:
Agreed.
But how does the TV series fit into that?

Bond and Dexter improved by straying from the source material (up to a point). Bourne trilogy is better for ignoring the disguise element.
But in general you are correct.
- Comment on "You can't just have Geralt for every single game" says his voice actor, and if you think The Witcher 4 making Ciri the protagonist is "woke," then "read the damn books" 6 days ago:
Yes I agree with your interpretation of what woke currently means. I’m saying that this is actually using woke ironically an insult. An unironic usage has no negative connotations.

Someone who can tame unicorns and jump through time and space is much more interesting than a berserker monster slayer.

Wrong way round. The unironic woke is the BLM socially aware activist.
It’s since around 2020 woke is mostly used as an insult by douche canoes.

Lots of companies own the offices their employees work in. Low demand for office space has a material impact on the balance sheet.
- Comment on Why don't these code-writing AIs just output straight up machine code? 1 week ago:
Decompiling an executable into human readable code could be useful. But you would probably train on the opcodes, not the machine code.

I feel there is a big difference between being able to skate at 45 and learning to skate at 45.
I used to skate as a kid, but I never once managed to pop an ollie.

There is no disagreement. Merriam/Websters definition of color is not scientific. Science says pink light doesn’t exist.
