Not American and maybe I’m just OOTL but this confuses me as well… I’m aware of a peaceful protest against the mass deportations, but what else? Why do they need armed soldiers??

I know my job!

Only opened the comments to check someone had covered this, thanks!

Oh interesting, I had Dishonored on PC and didn’t remember it being so bad. And I know what you mean, the controls feel so off beat though it’s hard to put my finger on exactly what it is. Some kind of acceleration/mapping function thing. I like to use motion controls for ADS as well and those were very sensitive.

I had it on PlayStation a while back. Really enjoyed so much about it, but ultimately found the controls on console to just be unbearable.

It’s rose-tinted glasses in play as well. I have many fond memories of my university days and deeply miss all the time I had with my friends that I now rarely see. I would encourage any student to cherish that aspect. There were many, many, difficult aspects of that time as well though, and a decade or so on I deeply appreciate the autonomy I have now.

It’s a good reason for us to use base 10, but in the past many people have not used base 10. However, the bases a society use often are somehow tied to something about the body. As an example (haven’t looked it up for a while, sorry), I think there is/was a group that used base 8, and counted on the gaps between their fingers.

It was really unfortunate. I think sadly the torchbearers probably felt pretty locked in and just followed through. Perhaps they assumed the doves would fly away. Regardless I believe that real doves stopped being used shortly after this ceremony!

Reminds me of the South Korea 1988 Olympics open. Human traditions are cosmic horrors for birds.

Farrow & Ball go further by just calling their salmon paint colour “Dead Salmon”.

Okay sure I can get behind that. I guess I just like the handle to be a consistent shape because I like to have some precision at the back too, palm or pinky.

I use my fingers I imagine how you would, but then after a gap wouldn’t you typically have the end of the cutlery resting into or against your palm? At least occasionally, depending on what you’re doing with the cutlery. I love that we’re discussing this, by the way.

I want 2’s head on 5’s body. 2’s body looks better than most but it’s too big for me, looks like it’d have bad palm feel.

The information inside of the commas can be omitted, it’s just extra detail. The sentence can still read as ‘The Trump administration cut funding to Yale University’s Humanitarian Research Lab last month.’

Reminds me of the UK’s Government Digital Services, who want to digitise government processes but also have a responsibility to keep that service as accessible and streamlined as possible, so that even a homeless person using a £10 phone on a 2G data service still has an acceptable experience.

An example. Here they painstakingly remove JQuery (most modern frameworks are way too big) from the site and shave 32Kb off the site size.
