My opponents are still throwing games sometimes. Like all they have to do is play their card on a different location and they guaranteed win but they instead just, uh, don't? math hard lol --- Neato, an account |

Almost certainly a combination of 1, 3, and secret #4: turn of the millennia era internet forums about video games were like 90% boys (/people who understood themselves to be boys at the time) to begin with so obviously that means more trans women down the road. That's true, the crazyisgood voters are probably cis men About 1% of the general population is trans: https://usafacts.org/articles/what-percentage-of-the-us-population-is-transgender/ Given that a b8er is 20x as likely to be trans as a member of the general population, and basically nobody here identified as trans 15 years ago, what do we think that says? a) Something about being a b8er correlates with a higher-than-average probability of being trans b) A significant chunk of the general population would identify as trans with some more introspection c) The b8 environment makes people trans d) Something else --- Neato, an account |

Basically the deck played a bunch of powerful creatures with downsides when they entered the battlefield. But I had a card (Tocatli Honor Guard) that eliminated their downsides.

| NeatoAnAccount 08/27/23 4:51:39 PM #268 | Just started playing the game, it's a lot of fun. Won my first 9 games in a row. I like that your deck has only 12 cards and that they present you with 1 new card at a time so you're basically just swapping out the worst card for the best card. It makes it easy to learn the cards and their effects.
I currently have 38 cards. I'm playing a Kazoo deck because I think that's the best i have: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/5/0/2/AAe_wlAAEyhO.jpg --- Neato, an account |

if it helps, i'm colorblind and it looks basically the same color to me. we can say the people of doma had the colorblind gene. I love the implication that the water is actually blue in FFVI. Like it changes from blue powerade to grape powerade lmao pjbasis posted... Well complaining about the water being purple is a little trite. It's obviously a storytelling technique to let us know what happened visually. He says the water looks weird. He identified the problem with visual inspection. It's not a symbolic thing like stink lines or whatever, the actual in-universe color of the water is purple. Cyan being the only person who didn't drink the water is another problem. Both of these issues could be resolved but they just weren't. --- Neato, an account |

ff6 is an abstraction, quite literally written as a play. it's not meant to be taken as realism in the slightest. that's not defending ff6, because it's not perfect, but trying to logic your way through it will never work with those old snes rpgs. What do you mean by this? I only watched a little bit of it on a stream last night; are there other instances of the game being like this? I don't remember anything like this from when I played back in the day but I also don't remember being bothered by this scene either so I probably missed something lol They could've shown this in another way too. Like maybe a flower drops into the water and instantly wilts or a mouse drinks it and instantly dies. It's just the choice to represent the poison as purple water makes everyone in Doma seem really dumb. --- Neato, an account |

| NeatoAnAccount 08/26/23 10:33:14 AM #1 | Kefka poisons the water, turning it purple. Cyan says "the water looks weird." And then like 50 people die immediately. Basically everyone in the kingdom drinks the water in that little 10 second window, including the guards on the second floor and the child sleeping in her bed. No one noticed the water was purple except Cyan.
Here's the scene, watch it yourself. It's so dumb lol https://youtube.com/watch?v=WGqAO_umr9o&si=ltq5VaJUxSnMuWiT --- Neato, an account |
| Topic | C/D: Either everything humans do is natural or nothing is |
| NeatoAnAccount 08/23/23 1:37:08 PM #12 | I reject the premise of the question.
"Natural" is a word. Like all words, it means whatever the speaker means when they say it. If the speaker is trying to say that we're just animals, and a beehive is every bit as "artificial" as OKCupid, then sure, fine, everything we do is natural. If they're trying to say that "unnatural" means "done with obvious human intention" then fine, everything we do is unnatural. It really depends on what you're trying to say when you call something "natural" or "unnatural." "Natural" has a lot of contradictory valid definitions. Like it's natural for kids to want to dig holes on the beach. That seems like universal human behavior, across all cultures. Is a hole dug by a kid "natural?" What about a hole dug by a sea turtle to lay her eggs in? --- Neato, an account |

| Topic | Is anyone hiring for remote work? |
| NeatoAnAccount 08/20/23 11:09:07 PM #1 | I have most of a degree in computer science. I still know how to write code but it's been a long time since I did software engineering (and honestly that's, like, a totally different thing). I got an 800 on the math portion of the SAT when I was 14. I speak enough Spanish to stream on Twitch in it and most of my internet friends can't speak English. My listening is about 1% as good as my reading but still. I will take basically anything as long as I don't have to go to an office.

| Topic | TIL "The Road to El Dorado" was dubbed into *Latin American* Spanish |
| NeatoAnAccount 08/20/23 1:01:21 AM #9 | paperwarior posted...
It's a different enough language, I think. If you want to distribute a movie in Latin America, a dub in the Spanish of Spain may be rather hard for viewers to understand. Not really. Spain is the "default" country for translations into Spanish. Castilian and Latin American Spanish are about as different as British and American English. paperwarior posted... I guess ideally you would want the dialogue spoken with a Spain-like accent by the characters who are from Spain. Yeah this is basically what I'm saying. British English has different vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation from American English, but not incomprehensibly so. Castilian Spanish has different vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation from Latin American Spanish, but not incomprehensibly so. It's a movie about people from Spain so you'd expect to hear Castilian Spanish. --- Neato, an account |
