You can believe that an answer can be found scientifically. You can have faith that what you see with your eyes, and that what happens during experimentation is accurate and not a fluke or trick of some sort.
Just because religion dominates most belief, and there are strong religious groups that hold that belief and faith are binary with no wiggle room whatsoever does not mean that it’s the only way they can function. On can still test faith and belief without losing them, and changing those beliefs to what holds more truth.
Holding that that belief and faith have no part in science… is a belief in and of itself. A particularly contradictory one at that.

Ah, if it’s one of the definitions, it must be the only definition.

Such as? Perhaps if you specified on what they’re getting a pass for people could be a little less blind.

They’re not necessarily happy, just not as angry as they look. Their neutral face just looks angry, grumpy, or otherwise in a negative state that isnt an accurate accounting of their current feelings.

Their height probably wouldn’t be as much of an issue if they lamps were properly hooded/aimed as well.

A joke doesn’t have to end with a punchline. Sometimes yes, anding is the best thing to do with a joke rather than just laughing and moving on.

Sorry, clearly you are far more knowledgeable about such things, despite having nothing more than I do to back it up. I apologize for contradicting your opinion on the internet, that was my bad.

Why does it have to be? It’s basically free money for them, whereas they have to make deals and curate their store front a lot more. Games take time and energy (if you don’t just want AI generated slop, at least), so to get that to market takes time. Whereas microtransaction garbage is basically hit it and quit it and generates insane amounts of money.

- Comment on Popular Tech Youtuber Enderman looses his YouTube channel after AI error 4 weeks ago:
Isn’t it saying that Enderman’s channel was linked (involved with, co-run by, some other AI based bullshit, etc) to a channel that had copyright strikes, and that the Japanese channel was the one with copyright strikes?

It was mostly for the joke, as the scientific calculator answer is just the equation written with different notation.

Let me guess, they’re introducing base-building and crafting elements that they somehow patented ten years ago.

Is he turning people into pterodactyls? Just because he is, possibly because of his own machinations, doesn’t mean he’s turning others into pterodactyls.
- Comment on Pop-up Amazon TV ads despite charging people monthly fees for their ad-free plan. 1 month ago:
You’re trying to excuse apologist language. Telling me to define the world by their terms, not how the world is. If you want to accept that their way is the right way, that’s on you. But when you tell others, that’s just spreading their propaganda.

They may have a specific corpo-speak word for it that they have codified into law with liberal applications of money… but in effect it is still advertising.
Arguing the etymology is like a child abuser arguing the difference between pedophilia and ephebophilia. At the end of the day, they’re still a child abuser, no matter how they define it.

Promotions are a form of advertising. Just because they have the excuse that it’s advertising on their own service doesn’t make it not advertising.

- Comment on Travel back to the days of cable TV with Blippo+, a time-hopping FMV game about... I'm not entirely sure, actually 2 months ago:
If it’s anything like the game Immortality, there’s an underlying story you can figure out. The gameplay in Immortality involves clicking elements in the video to link to elements from videos from other times and in-universe media. You can fast-forward and reverse, and there’s a hidden element you can discover.
Lots of nudity and a fair amount of blood, though.

But… a video isnt real life. It’d be more like “I dont need a nature documentary because I have a book on nature”.

Is the little descriptive icon there the whole time? Is it there only when you try to use the gesture? It might be malicious if there was no warning at all and it just does it… but to me it seems like they’re just trying to apply intuitive design practices in their mobile site design.
Not everything is an attack, even if one feels attacked.

Some publishers call it a “battle pass” or “seasons” instead.
