n=1. Just one. A really good one. Even starts with n funnily enough. I believe by definition it denotes a group of people which reside in the city of Paris but it’s not that city’s demonym.

Yeah I’m not fluent at all but trying to get there. I did hear that it’s definitely funnier in Japanese and most of it was lost in translation.

“konnichuwu, naguwu desu :3”
tbh this episode didn’t click for me tho. I really didn’t enjoy the theater segment, and the riko izumi story line felt way too long. Oh and I didn’t find the guinness record bit funny either.
I can’t tell tho whether this is a case of “I don’t like this” or “this is just genuinely unfunny”. I’ll be sticking with it thru the end but uhh… already not looking forward to City Sundays anymore.

No mate look on the right side, the number 20 is repeated. Ye imperial units are fucked but we are not at a point where 20 Celsius is equal to 2 different Fahrenheit values.

True, just saying that I can’t say whether these 10 anime are all better than City.
- Comment on Top 10 Anime of the Week #8 - Summer 2025 (Anime Corner) 1 week ago:
No clue but I don’t think so? I haven’t watched any of these 10 anime anyway so it might just be that it legitimately just isn’t that good idk. It just feels kinda wrong but I’m also the last person you should ask about anime stuff.

- Comment on Are those of us who grew up on older games more attuned to latency? 2 weeks ago:
I get what you’re trying to say but I’ve definitely experienced performance problems even on lowest settings.
The issue isn’t that everyone tries to run the game maxed out. The issue is that fundamental problems are often left in the games that you can’t just fix by lowering quality settings. - Comment on Are those of us who grew up on older games more attuned to latency? 2 weeks ago:
No. The thing is AAA games are now being released in an unoptimized state way too often. Even if you still get good FPS microstuttering and short lag spikes still occur frequently.
Of course this can make you wonder if this is a you problem and you just got too sensitive.
Nope, this is an industry problem. Why would you optimize a game? No, legitimately asking. It doesn’t affect sales numbers, it often doesn’t significantly tank your steam review score (that most publishers don’t care about), there are practically no downsides to not optimize your game.
But if you do value optimization, it lowers dev velocity, requires more training/awareness for devs and artists, and you won’t be able to ship as fast anymore. And on top of that you get… nothing. A few more sales maybe? - Comment on Are those of us who grew up on older games more attuned to latency? 2 weeks ago:
I had a super underpowered PC I grew up with and it influenced my imagination. For a long time stuff I’d imagine also ran at like 15-20FPS. Really weird effect.

- Comment on Apple's Greed Is Finally Backfiring 3 weeks ago:
The very tl;dr is that Apple has been catering to shareholders first and foremost to the point that all else suffers. To elaborate a lil more:
The video shows an internal email from the iPhone VP of marketing that basically says they should only add features that are good enough and that what the iPhone already offers could be considered too much. “ Anything new and especially expensive needs to be a rigorously challenged before it’s allowed into the consumer phone”
Then there’s the thing where Cook allows stock buybacks which Jobs didn’t. I am not sure what this means exactly but it plays into the broader point that Jobs was a product genius and Cook is a financial genius. (also, they spent $77 billion on stock buybacks, this will be relevant in a second).
Lastly there is AI. Apple is lacking in AI chips so there was a request to double their amount, which would’ve cost about $10bn. But this request was denied. So they had to not just work with their own aging chips, but rent cloud computing infrastructure from Google.
tl;dr Cook is cooked or something idk

If you think $32k is so much to spend on MTX to call him John Microtransaction I’m sorry to say that he’s probably still just a medium sized fish.

Got 3 games I rotate now of which only 1 I haven’t played before.
Death Stranding: Finished it on the PS4 way back when and bought the PC director’s cut a long time ago but only recently picked it up again.
Cyberpunk 2077: Technically bought it day 1 but I am just now doing my first modded playthru.
Starfield: I am not a Bethesda fan so I was 0% hyped for this and only watched a lot of YouTube content about it. Randomly decided to pull the trigger recently tho. Completed the game vanilla first now I am doing a modded playthru and taking my time with it.
This one surprised me the most because I’m having fun and really enjoy my time with it. Funny thing is that most of the negative stuff mentioned about this game absolutely holds true, the game kinda ass. And Nasapunk is an oxymoron. But I’m a raccoon I enjoy trash. And if u shove 600 mods down Todd’s throat you actually get a really cool experience out of it.
Still wouldn’t recommend it tho. - Comment on [Satire] Great Barrier Reef ‘not white enough’ Pauline Hanson says 5 weeks ago:

- Comment on CITY THE ANIMATION - Episode 5 discussion 5 weeks ago:
While I enjoyed the first episode, I noticed that I liked subsequent episodes less and less. To the point where after episode 4 I started thinking of dropping the show.
And I’m really glad I’m sticking with it because this episode was really cool. Now looking forward to what they’ll come up with next. Tho I do hope that they don’t try to out do themselves and give us 16 simultaneous plots next. - Comment on hygiene 1 month ago:
