It might just have “turned” micro afterwards, with a combination of a bunch of stuff, like them being a grower, the person putting on weight and also losing libido.

With all the information that Google knows about us and everything, they could in theory be doing a great job suggesting things that would be great for us - for example showing me a product or service I don’t know exists which would help me with some problem I may be having.

Google pretends that it’s what they do - showing the best possible ads for us. But what they do is the complete opposite, they find the best possible users to show their ads to. They have a responsibility to the ad, not to the user.

Everytime this shows up I wonder if this is really a male nipple or if the creator used a female one just for extra laughs. If it was a serious thing that people actually did it would be hilarious if they were replacing one female nipple for another.

Somehow also reminds me of a story about a singer’s album cover released during the latest military dictatorship in Brazil (it was a heavily censored period). Folks went out of their way photographing a woman’s asshole with a marble ball on it until they managed to get one that looked like an eye - then used that picture as the album cover.

For some reason Spotify is even worse than the average electron app. Back when I still had only 16GB of ram (and worked on this same project), running out of ram would cause some random app to close. If I had Spotify open, it would freeze the whole system instead.

I work with typescript on a very large codebase. If I have the code editor open and the run a typecheck at the same time, plus some electron apps and Spotify playing, it can easily fill my 32GB of ram, so 64 would be the next cool number to not have to worry about ram ever.

There was something in that game that made it insufferable to me, but I don’t remember what it was. Everytime I picked it up I would play for 5 or 10 minutes and put it down again, until I eventually quit it.

I need to be thankful that those bar games were hard from the beginning and had me killed within seconds whenever I tried them, so I never got addicted to them. If those games had used modern user-retention tactics back then I would’ve spent a ton of coins in my life.

I don’t have that many Gatorades, but I have a bakery across the street.

Considering Nintendo basically has an uncle scrooge money vault, that would’ve been quite an achievement.

Is that still a thing?

Speaking as someone who tried to get into homestuck after seeing how beloved it was, but couldn’t really adapt to it… Wait I don’t really have anything to say.

Which is obvious once you realize there’s no way that wild wolwes would have learnt the Greek alphabet on their own.

THANK YOU! I had heard about Chuck Tingle years ago but could never remember his name or find him on Google even with a million different queries (rip my history)

When you look at all adaptation attempts out there, each one failed at something different and there’s no single thing that all of them got wrong. Eventually someone will get everything right. It might not be with One Piece, but it’ll happen sooner or later.

It seems like Netflix is doing all they can to make it the best live action adaptation ever, which is a breath of fresh air considering how little effort shueisha puts on the one piece anime.

From what I’ve seen so far it really feels like one piece, which is all I want. Even if they make changes to the story and fail at some things, if they can replicate the magic of watching one piece, I’ll be very happy with it.

I’m looking forward to watching it with some folks who don’t watch anime.
