  This is the first time I am knowing of this, that makes it a spoiler.

  On the other hand, I don’t plan on playing the game, so I guess it is not a spoiler.

  That’s their tech literate filter, which helps them not waste time on people that would almost definitely catch-on to their scam before actually getting scammed.

  imagining fields (not forces,

  Yeah that thing. Except that they were dubbed “magnetic lines of force”.

  Looking at the iron shavings though, it seemed more like low potential energy regions/ stable regions.

  Thankfully we won’t have to rewrite years of forums for searchability. Not that it matters anymore

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hamster⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  For anyone whose magnet related memories are not filled with various line illustrations of the forces, that’s probably it.

  And even though my head is full of those illustrations, I don’t seem to understand how the iron fillings and ferrofluids make the shapes they do instead of just sticking to the magnet. And I am too lazy to do the maths to make myself understand.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨are "brush" and "blush" really pronounced differently? i pronounce them the same.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nice to know.

  My language has both kinds of R. One that makes the tongue go all the way back and another one that’s closer to the ‘L’ point but the tongue is kept looser and not touched fully, making the ‘R’ sound.
  I tend to use the latter, mainly because it’s more effort to go all the way back. No. Mainly, it is because everyone else around me speaks that way. But now that I know, I’ll still keep speaking that way, due to the other reason.

  Yes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta claims torrenting pirated books isn’t illegal without proof of seeding⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Is it not also because it was easier to feign ignorance for the time the laws were passed?
  And that nobody thought of Tor, while at the same time, leechers who don’t seed are actually being worse for the Torrent?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta claims torrenting pirated books isn’t illegal without proof of seeding⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, that’s how it tends to be in most places.
  You don’t get caught for downloading; you get caught for uploading.

  And I’d guess all that money would then go to military funding, with Anna’s Archive, again getting nothing out of it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Meta Torrented over 81 TB of Data Through Anna's Archive, Despite Few Seeders' * TorrentFreak⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They are pirating, while also DOSing the providers.

  This is the closest.
  Remember, human brains also have OCRs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Excel Parking: Five-minute rule firm must pay driver's expenses - BBC News⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  More companies trying to scheme against paying customers.
  If this were the US, I would expect the guy to have to pay more instead and then the company would go around making it harder to find a parking spot, to increase these cases.

  Hopefully, they find a way to get the 5 minute rule removed.

  I’m kinda excited to see which pathogen it turns out to be and what flammable substance it turns out to generate.
  Really hope it doesn’t turn out to be something which would not, realistically combust in said circumstances, as I have seen in a few other stories. That would be another let down.

  So could it be that FromSoftware is considering selling out and working to increase their stock prices, to get a better deal?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony reportedly looking to acquire Kadokawa, owner of ELDEN RING dev FromSoftware⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sony seems to have a pretty workable strategy now.

  1. Want to acquire a company for cheaper.
  2. Make news that they are going to acquire.
  3. Target company’s sales plummet, because gamers don’t want Sony DRM
  4. Cheap company to buy.

  So unless FromSoftware releases a statement claiming they won’t be bought by Sony, I’m not buying any more of their stuff.
