The kana is completely different. The words themselves use the same pronunciation.

Check the videos to see what I mean:

pronounced "sh"

pronounced "sh"

Then in the latter video when they break down the individual kana, you can clearly hear pronounced as "he" but in the full word it's "sh"
I don't hear in that, but sometimes I do with other words, like .

GameFAQs prohibits the posting of sexually explicit or excessively lewd content, commonly referred to as "hornyposting". This includes but is not limited to explicit descriptions or discussions of sexual acts, images or videos containing nudity or explicit content, objectification, and solicitation of sexual encounters. Users are expected to maintain a respectful and appropriate atmosphere in all discussions and interactions on the site.
So were all those posts with non-explicit, non-nude images deleted and locked in error?

The Boo in the Pianta Parlor still has cat ears instead of bunny ears, so some changes are definitely staying.

Edit: Actually, they removed the bunny ears from the Japanese version of the remake too. It's such a pointless change. What difference does it make if it's a cat or a rabbit?
Because it's a Playboy reference. Same thing happened years ago with the Dragon Quest VIII and Tales of Symphonia ports. People speculated it was over coypright concerns, but considering the the number of gacha games that use the design (and even DQ 11), it's probably because the sexual connotations are too overt.

I guess I don't agree w/ the Kate Hudson topic. It was just Jeff explaining about something interesting that happened in his life. But, I mean, at least it sets a precedent. We now know exactly where the line is. In a way Hollywood Jeff died for our sins.

But seriously guys, there is a Sex Board for a reason. Just use that. What is the point of even risking it.

Now granted the Sex board is mostly for relationship advice, and really weird horny posting isn't allowed -- but the line isn't so thin over there.

TopicAn increase of weird matter-of-fact explanations for things on social media?
Powdered_Toast
04/21/24 5:29:26 PM

Matter-of-fact explanations on social media are a result of multiple factors. The responses could be taken from generative AI, resulting in an unnatural, stilted tone. These are easily distinguishable from a human, and may make the person asking the question feel uncomfortable or believe that they're not being treated with respect. Another option is that the writer believes that a simple, authoritative response is more likely to taken seriously, as an answer full of grammatical errors and spelling mistakes will often be dismissed out of turn. Alternatively, someone might just be fucking with you.

18+ sets just mean they're expensive, retro, or have a ton of tiny pieces and are relatively complicated. Officially LEGO doesn't allow war or overtly violent themes, though they've released some WW1 stuff and the Indiana Jones sets had nazis and a Messerschmitt.

Yeah, it was a real problem that was mostly fixed. Dual flush toilets are better, they have two buttons, one for high flow and one for low.

I had a short dream that I don't remember too well, but I was driving around a rural area looking for an old hospital or something. When I got to where it was supposed to be, there was instead a little farm and orchard. There was a barn that opened up right onto the road, and a giant pair of red safety scissors were embedded in the barn door, jutting out over the road. There were a couple police cars parked nearby, but nobody around. I recognized this as a "scissors incident" and was a bit confused because the scissors were supposed to be a few blocks away. I wasn't very concerned, so I did a three point turn and left.

You know it's weird I've had dreams involving video games. I have never seen a video game console controllers or a TV in my dreams. Not sure I've seen even a phone or any other tech. Guns and cars I think are the most advanced things I think I've seen in one

When a dream for me becomes a video game to say it's just like video game stuff going on maybe like a mini map in the corner. Qnd maybe seeing myself in third person
It's weird that you mention that, because most of the time if I'm playing a game or watching a show in a dream there's no screen or anything, it's just sort of there and I know it's a game. Last night though, I dreamed about playing some new Star Fox game on N64, and I was holding up the controller and pressing all the buttons trying to figure out the controls.

Powdered_Toast
04/18/24 8:05:15 PM

The first time I saw this was System Shock 2. People talked about how scary the spiders were, and there was a mod to remove them. I hate bugs, and I was always a giant coward when it came to any remotely scary game. System Shock 2 kept me constantly on edge with the normal enemies, and I was just always dreading the moment a spider would show up. Is it going to be a massive swarm of tiny enemies that are impossible to escape? A giant, hallway filling monster? Then I finally saw one.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/b/b29f75a0.jpg
And my only reaction was "oh." That's kinda big, I guess. They're really slow and don't really do much. Some are pretty bullet spongy. The spiders in Turok 2 scared me way more.
viewmaster_pi posted...
eh, i also don't think arachnophobia is real. much like trypophobia, submechanophobia, megalophobia, thalassaphobia, coulrophobia, etc, i think these are social phenomena exacerbated by media, internet culture, videos and pics meant to deliberately creep you out or shock you, and people tend to glom onto these things and wear them like fun badges
They're real, but I partially agree that these modes feel more like a trendy meme than a real accessibility option. Making them crabs instead of pretty much anything else feels like wasted effort. You ever see that photo of the coconut crab on the garbage can? It's practically a giant spider.

You were intended to use the minerals and your buildings as walls. Also, a unit would spawn whenever you completed a building. We were all playing Terran. I ended up rage quitting when two of my friends teamed up on me, then the fourth guy quit too.

Isn't that crazy? Sometimes I wonder if there was a person that actually downloaded and backed up all these videos beforehand which got deleted and is sitting on a treasure trove of internet history.
There's always somebody out that that saves everything, but whether or not you can find them is another story. It always warms my heart when someone asks "hey, anyone have this old, highly specific, niche meme image?" and one random guy just happens to have been sitting on it for the past 15 years and sees that post. I have a couple now deleted youtube videos, but there's nothing for me to really do with them unless someone asks. They're movie shitposts so they'd probably get instantly claimed or deleted.
