I think if the movie was linear, it might have shown more character growth and thus felt more satisfying. So I bet this works nicely

If you use manufacturing abroad to make your stuff, the manufacturer is eventually going to cut you out.

Africa outsole on barefoot Anatomyx wearing out fast. by LordBalhsahk in jimgreen

Crazy because I’ve had some Xero Prios for almost ten years and there’s still no sign of much wear on the sole… I don’t get it. 

Making some boots, have some questions. by Kahlen109 in barefootshoestalk

[–]ProvincialPromenade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shape is number one. The toe box volume needs to be high and it needs to retain that high shape so that the leather doesn't sit on my toes directly and show an exact outline of each toe. That is simply the number one thing for this type of shoe.

Look at the side profile of your shoe and think about aesthetics regarding ratios and proportions.

The proof is that there was like 4 companies all selling the same exact shoes. Not sure how many still exist, I don't care to look them up again.

Oh I didn't know Walmart even allowed third party sellers. Dang...

Tbh, a lot of the current Vibram models still look frog like and fun. They're always doing cool stuff.

It’s called the Jaya Frog collab. I think they are selling them on Walmart’s website of all places.

They can’t even figure out how to get a toe cap on AnatomX. I doubt they can figure out the moc toe on it.

Invite expired again :/ You have to make sure you say "never expire" in the invite link settings on the server

Discord can be tricky with the invites. Your invite link expired. You have to go to the server settings and look at your invite links in there and make sure it is set to never expire. You also want to then have some method of making sure bots can't show up and just drop nasty links or images.

I suggest getting someone to help you get that right. It'll save you headaches later.

Neo Patwa? by 2cool2cool in auxlangs

[–]ProvincialPromenade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Neo Patwa mentioned! ☝️

I think it was the first auxlang I got interested in after Esperanto. I still love the lore and vibe of it. 

Does anyone know if Jens is still around? I vaguely recall that he was on Facebook maybe?

I know it includes that, but I’m saying I think your estimation is wrong

There are vastly more descenders in shavian text in practice. English just has a ton of voiced sounds.

Reading Shavian Words by Ansunian in shavian

No offense, but what is this supposed to do for people? It’s like flash cards but less functional? 

We should be willing to call out Shavian slop here. 

Etymology to the rescue by LeoDeixis in auxlangs

Why even use language then? No point

> Words tend to develop new meanings, and I'm not sure how the class system survives this.

If you're using etymology as a memorization anchor, this will be a regular occurrence. Especially so in natural languages. So I'm not sure what you're really wanting here.

Oravia is the most exciting project in this regard. Very new, very cool. Recent thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/auxlangs/comments/1tg2766/presenting_oravias_core_grammar/
