  I think there’s a good chance you’re vividly misremembering the lyrics.

  A few weeks ago I was looking for a song I was POSITIVE had the lyric “got to get my baby back” and it wasn’t until days later I remembered another lyric, found the song, and realized the lyric was actually “got to get a hold of this” (RJD2 - Through The Walls, by the way)

  I have an insanely good musical memory so I was 100% sure on the lyric until proven otherwise lol

  Right, so there’s no need to make up something it did wrong

  Hold up,

  […] instead of going back to the user and saying “the font size is already set to 150%, would you like to increase it more?” it just goes ahead and bumps it up to 200 because it has to.

  No it did not. Copilot doesn’t click or change anything in this video, that’s the user clicking 200% after copilot told him to make it 150%.

  The only actual flaws here is Copilot not seeing the size was already set to 150%

  I don’t have an answer but I do have a few followup questions:

  1. Do you know for sure that it’s an 80s song? As opposed to a song from later that sounds 80s?

  2. How confident are you on the lyrics? Could you be remembering the cadence and misremembering the words?

  3. Was the “get get get get down” part the singer herself or some kind of sample?

  4. Was the “nothing truly matters” lyric a one-off line or part of the refrain?

  5. Would you consider whistling the melody on vocaroo.com?

  There is no video game or TV show I can find that’s called “it’s the police”

  Never heard of this game so I looked it up…what the hell are you talking about?

  It’s a new game with no existing IP. There also isn’t a TV show.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨World Of Warcraft will get a new premium currency alongside Midnight for no obvious good reason at all⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Not defending the decision because I also dislike micro transactions but if you were OK with the existing shop, you should be ok with this, too. It’s a currency to buy cosmetics for the new housing feature - not even cosmetics for your character.

  Meanwhile, the cash shop has every type of cosmetic AND you can buy gold.

  The current expansion is one of the best they’ve ever released but I’m not holding my breath for midnight with the changes to addons.

  If you’re a mythic+ enjoyer, check out the game Fellowship. Not an MMO but it’s basically the same the WoW mythic dungeon system as a standalone game

  I agree that it didn’t deserve to die but it died because it lived outdoors. If you care about a stray, take it in.

  There’s an inherent risk to being a wild animal and it’s amplified in a place with thousands of people

  I mean isn’t “the future is for everyone” kind of a major theme in Star Trek?

  Plenty of people could have taken it in, it was obviously loved.

  If they did, they wouldn’t let a cat live outside in a city

  Just want to say that I think they handled the Nomi thing very well in the movie. They were VERY aware of what the audience reaction would be and played into it. They could have pandered a couple different ways and chose not to
