So you’d support a “day” unit of time that has no relation with the times the sun is rising and setting?
if your “day” is exactly a 365th or 366th of a year, you’ll have to work with with the fact a specific hour like 12PM would gradually deviate to be any time from sun’s zenith to the middle of the night.
It’d still be a mess anyway. How do you subdivide your two year halves? What do your months look like? If they still exist.
Assuming you use equinoxes too, you can split your year in 4… Except since you’ve got 365 days to split, it will never be a perfect split.
And turns out the Earth doesn’t care about synchronizing rotation and revolution and the year is actually about 365.24 days. so you still have freaking leap days every four years, except not every hundred year, except yes please every 400. Or whatever rule you make to fix the inevitable deviation.
And then Mercator uncle’s like “Projection? What’s a projection? The Earth’s flat!”
Some people even think that adding things like “don’t hallucinate” and “write clean code” to their prompt will make sure their AI only gives the highest quality output.
Arthur C. Clarke was not wrong but he didn’t go far enough. Even laughably inadequate technology is apparently indistinguishable from magic.
I don’t even use gmail professionally and I was still using that.
Some (terribly implemented) services don’t allow changing e-mail on their accounts, and I have stuff I subscribed to aeons ago with a mail I am not using anymore.
Not that I can’t connect directly to that old crappy mail provider, but it’s very inconvenient.
Hey, I have some of those.
Oh. More than I thought actually. Like already a dozen and I just reached “I”.
Though a few have been replaced by newer versions.
I just make wish devilstrand with cotton and tinctoria.
Most Wii games used single layer DVDs, but it had a couple Dual-Layer DVD games, obviously still a lot smaller than Blu-ray. Including Smash, Xenoblade, Metroid Prime Trilogy, and also that Metroid game that shall not be named.
It was not as transparent because it required a system update to support those… and because some Wiis with faulty disc drives had to be replaced because they couldn’t read them at all. I had to send mine to support.
Tempting, but you know someone will get murdered for that at some point.
In the 90s they put random English phrases instead of translating.
Bad example. The original line was already about shorts. It also became a meme in the series and lots of later episodes have some guy being enthusiastic about shorts around the begining of the game.

It’s true this sounds a bit more random in English than Japanese, but it was an attempt at translating it.
Your cat’s data belongs to the people, comrade!
Maybe they expected a slightly less angry response, but they probably don’t mind. They don’t care if their model looks bad, they definitely want it to be a talking point before everything else.
Like the recent article in Wall Street Journal dunking on their stupid “vending machine”. Or when they publish studies about how training the model to make bad code on purpose turns it into literally Hitler. They want people to talk about it.
J’ai zéro code pour le pinard ou même l’alcool en général, pour la bonne raison que j’aime pas ça.
Si quelqu’un ne respecte pas ça et vient me faire chier à cause de ça, pour moi c’est un bon critère pour le ranger dans “les cons”.
Of all the stuff people do for cosmetic reasons, I think I will never get poisoning your face muscles with a deadly neurotoxin.
Are you? I’m pretty sure you can replace “high-level marketing execs” with houseplants, with zero impact on productivity.
I can’t check the link directly, that store’s site might be geolocked for some reason… But yeah, good one.
Not sure, but I don’t think so… I think it might have been the opening from Ouran Host Club. IIRC that’s what my sister was watching back then, and she showed me that video.
There’s a line about beautiful spring in there, maybe it’s not a perfect fit but obviously the person doing that started from an English translation, and there might have been some creative liberty here and there.
Long ago, I watched a youtube video of a girl singing a song from an anime that I’m assuming she’d translated herself in French. A bit bold because she didn’t speak French. It was a nice try, but overall quite funny.
The part that really got me was a line about “a beautiful blooming spring” that she translated as “un beau ressort qui fleurit”.
“Ressort” is the mecanical part that goes “boing”. The season is “printemps”.
I liked Wonder. It’s a decent attempt at refreshing 2D Mario, and some of the level gimmicks were quite fun. I think they’ve tried to recapture the effect of “every level a new idea” in 3D World, though I’d agree they were not as succesful in this one.
It’s a lot better than NSMB U IMO, that one was incredibly bland (especially after NSMB Wii, that one was great).
