You must be a linguist; the only other person I’ve ever witnessed using the word “conjugate” was my mother, who taught me basically everything I know about grammar.

2·2 hours agoI don’t know if it’s what the original commenter was referencing, but the combat controls - mostly not shown in your list - were extremely unintuitive last time I played it. Otherwise I enjoyed the game.
I heard about this when I was in my twenties, forgot the details, and purchased The Great Gatsby instead.
I thought I was missing something for the longest time. I guess I was.

It is not, but I am amused that - even with all that money - he still went with cheap folding chairs.
When I was in Jamaica, one of the tour guides pointed out the (former, I think?) house of a celebrity. Apparently, you always knew when the celebrity was in town because, quote, “you could smell them smoking.”
When he said this, I sincerely thought the guide meant smoking meat until I made a comment about that and everyone started laughing at me.
Debian is well known for maintaining established packages in its repos. This means that all of the software is thoroughly tested, and therefore (usually) stable; however, the software in question is generally older, so it also means that sometimes you’ll have to find your own approach if you want to run any newer services.
When do the blondes, brunettes and redheads show up?

politics @lemmy.world•Ignorance is BS: speaker’s stock answer on Trump’s misdeeds is ‘I don’t know’
2·2 days agoAt my first IT job (which was help desk/sysadmin), during onboarding I was told “it’s not okay to say ‘I don’t know’ unless you follow it up with ‘but I will find out.’”
Reminds me of The Onion, personally.

1·2 days agoThe choice is yours, of course, but as others have pointed out each episode is at least semi self contained. I’m a bit behind, but none of the others I’ve seen have been at all like that and most have been very worth watching.










Sure, if you’re a skateboarding legend.
