Oh hi.
The Alyx Vance must go this way anyway.
Gordon Freeman dies in All Dogs Go To Heaven 2.
I wasn't designed to be carried.

@a1ba If I did, I wouldn't tell you.
@BasedLunatic @RichardKuklinskisIcyGlare
Isn't Crusader Kings a video game? I think he's talking about the game.
@RedTechEngineer @Tony
We don't have this in my part of Europe. I've seen a couple of such math examples over the years, and... tbh completely honest, I do find some of them as neat examples of how to think differently about math. And I would have liked to be shown some of them as a kid.
BUT, a kid shouldn't be graded on whether he understood and can apply the random common core tricks (which from what I've seen, they apparently are). Just give him 63x9, and let him choose whatever method he wants to solve that.
If he can draw the rectangles on paper, or in his mind, as fast or faster than I can use the traditional method, why stop him from using it? I think it can be useful to show different methods, just in case one of them clicks better for someone than the traditional method, and they are faster then they would have been otherwise.
BUT DON'T waste too much class time on this. Show the thing once, let the kids know they can also do things this way if they like, but don't linger on it. And don't try to grade them on knowing all the methods. At the end of the school year, they really should just know the one that is fastest for them. And just grade the fucking end result.
@monsignor_dickface What do you mean? CoD has been going backwards for longer than it has gone forwards.
@Tony As an outsider, I'm still stunned that Republicans and conservatives voted in a bunch of 90s-2000s liberal democrats. Trump, Tulsy, RFK, Musk. None of these guys are even remotely conservative.

Let me make myself clear. If you need a third party software to make your UI usable, then your UI is defective. This is not even a Twitch only rule, and it's technically not even limited to UI.

Oh shit, there's a Xenoblade 2 delocalization now.
Fuck yes, maybe I'll play it in an emulator after all

I don't get why people cope and can't admit that Twitch has a bad UI and is just a bad platform overall. I'm not even talking about this thread. I see this everywhere. Aside that people can get away with infringing copyright laws, I don't understand why streamers even use it.
@mischievoustomato That was peak wallpaper design 20 years ago.
@mischievoustomato I've been cursing the penguin for years, and the only response I get back is "no, you don't get it, it's meant to look ugly!". These people are literally worse than art snobs that pretend a shit stain on the wall is art. 
@mischievoustomato
Can't tell if it's one of those Chinese fakes, where it's a woman in a dress and makeup that pretends to be a robot, or if it's AI generated, or if actually is the real deal.
@SMetzeler I wonder if the models appreciate being used as political pawns by a lunatic. I can't imagine they were informed of this stunt prior to the show.
@BasedLunatic The worst part is that I swear I've seen that exact face.
@BasedLunatic
That would actually be better than what they actually do.
@BasedLunatic What's the job? From the items on the desk, my best guess would be accounting.
@mischievoustomato Trick question, one of those will never happen.

@wgiwf @Goalkeeper @DrRyanSkelton I was going to start a manga publisher back in the mid 2000s, got my business plan together, got into contact with Tuttle Mori (the agency basically all works used to be licensed through) and I found out a lot of things about the Japanese industry.
1. It is market driven.
2. They are aware that they don't know what Westerners want and trust Western companies and journalists to reflect what we want to them.
3. This is not "art" to the publishers (Kodansha, Square Enix, etc). To them, it is a product to be made to sell and whatever needs to change for it to sell overrides whatever the artist might want or think unless they are a reliable hit maker (Toriyama, Seo Kouji, people like that)
The function out the other side is that they will absolutely let Western studios change just about anything they want. It got bad enough in some cases, that the Japanese companies were getting upset at having the media misrepresented to the world and clamped down a bit.
For the more artistic Japanese side reaction to this being the state of the industry, you can see the minor rebellion that Murata Range created in the form of his ROBOT books, where he got weird and interest artists together and let them just do whatever they wanted.
But generally, it's understood that this is a product and appeals to a specific genre segement (shounen, seinen, shoujo, ecchi, etc)
China doesn't have that view and is very protectionist of their culture and cultural output and how it's viewed abroad so I expect they will remain better about it.
