define "been without it"

there's been times where it ran out of battery and I didn't bother to recharge it for 1-2 weeks since I don't need it when I'm just staying at home anyway. but it's always there for me to potentially use if I really wanted to

I'm using Ctrl+V if I need to use "r", which of course is extremely inconvenient.

if you're on windows 10 you can use microsoft powertoys to do key remapping, which is probably better than this at least. My windows key broke like 4-5 months ago and I mapped caps-lock to it and now it's basically second nature (I might have a hard time unadjusting when I get a new keyboard...)

Xavier_On_High posted...
Someone better versed in it might correct me, but that's my understanding of it.
yeah I think you're kinda off-point here, "demon lord" in translations of anime or other japanese stuff is mostly likely to be maou () which is a pretty generic fantasy term for like, the evil big boss guy. it's sort of hard to explain so I'll just link this https://legendsoflocalization.com/tricky-translations-1-maou-daimaou/

but basically, demon lord is like the easiest possible canned translation for this and pretty much any time you see it you should assume this was the original word. sometimes it fits better than others, and that article gives a lot of examples of alternative translations that have been used for it over the years

personally I'm a big fan of nier translating it as Shadowlord

google search does curate information in a way that duckduckgo doesn't. like, the overall point of his statements here are some pretty dumb stuff but this part actually is true and is a reason I could see wanting to use duckduckgo beyond just the privacy part.

unfortunately, usually the curation makes the results better, not worse, so trying to avoid it tends to make your seraches less effective <_<

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_rice

The swollen crisp white stems of Manchurian wild rice are grown as a vegetable, popular in East and Southeast Asia. The swelling occurs because of infection with the smut fungus Ustilago esculenta.[2] The fungus prevents the plant from flowering, so the crop is propagated asexually, the infection being passed from mother plant to daughter plant. Harvest must be made between about 120 days and 170 days after planting, after the stem begins to swell, but before the infection reaches its reproductive stage, when the stem will begin to turn black and eventually disintegrate into fungal spores.[citation needed]

The vegetable is especially common in China, where it is known as gosn () or jiobi (). In Japan it is known as makomodake (ja:). Other names which may be used in English include coba and water bamboo. Importation of the vegetable to the United States is prohibited in order to protect North American species from the smut fungus.

this is super interesting actually, instead of eating the grains let it get infected by fungus and eat the stalks instead. actual region-locked food

I dunno if I really "had" to but I had (and have) a pretty good relationship with my direct family and I always would. I think it would be very strange to just walk out of the house and disappear for hours (especially overnight!) without saying anything to anyone. like, forget anyone making me do it, I would personally not feel comfortable doing it.

maybe not as far as everyone I was with and exactly what we were doing but just a general "I'm going out with <name of friend they actually recognize> for a while, I'll probably be back around <time>, do/don't bother making me dinner" sort of thing

the argument is kinda silly and now that I can see why it happened I'm not really interested in continuing it but I really honestly do think it sounds weird. it's kinda the same reaction I'd have to someone mixing up much/many. As in, if I was talking or reading it in a big paragraph or something I'd just gloss over it instantly but once I start actually thinking about the sentence it just has a wrong sort of feel to it that I can't unnotice

"number" and "amount" have the exact same meaning in everyday usage. Again. Nothing about that title is ungrammatical. "The Resident Evil Ports Amount of Ridiculous..." would be ungrammatical.

you use "number" for countable nouns and "amount" for uncountable nouns. similar to fewer/less (another one people get wrong very often)

Modern RPGs are balanced where, if you play normally, the challenge level should roughly match your levels. Gamefreak doesn't do that, so you end up massively over-leveled unless you skip content. The primary problem is the disconnect between the intended audience and the mechanics really.
yeah this is the big issue with it I think

the exp sharing like that is a very good mechanic overall imo. the problem is just that there doesn't seem to really have been any recognition of how high level this makes you and enemy levels aren't properly adjusted to match

they want to explore in totally different ways (kronii wants to check out specific landmarks, mumei wants to just wander randomly and see what she finds) and they're constantly pulling the other one away from what they were doing so in the end they don't really manage to do either of these
