Yeah, absolutely. Then they escalate from "innocent mistake" to "accusatory" on a dime.

The Windows version definitely does not open your default browser to download a new installation package which you then need to install yourself.

I've also heard people use it who weren't lying, they were simply incorrect, and conflating those two concepts.

Nobody suspects a thing...

...why does your body wash burn?

I stand corrected

The same priority operations can be done in any order without affecting the result, that's why they can be same priority and don't need an explicit order.

6 × 4 ÷ 2 × 3 ÷ 9 evaluates the same regardless of order. Can you provide a counter example?

Sounds like we're in complete agreement.

What really gets me is when someone crosses the line from "enough to hold it together" all the way through "cohesive item you can take bites from" then dives headlong into "everything sloughs off as the cheese stays connected and drags every other topping with it", then acts like nothing is wrong and it's a good thing.

I might be an outlier here, but I absolutely think there is such a thing as too much cheese. My partner and I have regular disagreements about how much should be put on a pizza when we're making one at home.

Yes, that's all true, but none of that describes its free-fall trajectory. Drag causes it to deviate from free-fall very slightly, and it definitely wasn't in free-fall when the pieces were launched from Earth

Spent a moment thinking about this and I think there's an implied definition for what "on earth" means that we intuitively accept but don't ever really need to state.

If your projected free-fall trajectory both forward and backward in time intersects with the surface of the earth then you are "on earth".

Standing on the ground? Intersects twice. Thrown rock? Intersects twice. Person in an airplane? Intersects twice. ISS? No intersection. Incoming impact meteor? One intersection.

They were looking for an excuse to do this anyway.

 

I made a post here a few days ago complaining about content all being elsewhere, which was nice to vent, but doesn't really help the situation. Now I've decided to be the change.

Let's actually talk a little. What games do you all play? Tell me what you like about them!

Personally I've always been big into Street Fighter. I enjoy almost any fighting game, but the SF series is the one that I have by far put the most time into. I'm having a blast with SF6, even if I am just a diamond rated scrub. :D

 

Just venting, but if you want to avoid Twitter it means missing out on easily 90% of FGC activity, and the remaining 10% is almost all Discord and Reddit.

RIP SRK.

 

I can't wait.
