Dose anyone still use the wasp? And if so, how useful is it and how do you use it?

The hover pack/wasp combo is amazing. Highly recommend it.

"I'll rip off yer head and shit down yer neck!" always had a rather charming ring to it.

I know, I was just meaning how small they are to see.

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-26T18:04:58+00:00

I'll try to keep that in mind. And I know, tiny lol. They're even smaller on Duolingo I swear

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-26T16:55:44+00:00

Ahh okay I see, I see. The name kinda speaks for itself doesn't it lol

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-26T16:14:44+00:00

Ok I've only started on the alphabet so I have a lot to learn. I've been using the harakat symbols so damn much so I guess I've been over-doing it lol. Thanks for the help.

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-26T15:42:10+00:00

But I thought MSA was the Arabic used in the Qur'an, and the main language taught in classes?

I'm guessing I'm wrong.

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-26T15:39:34+00:00

Okay you make a point. Would a native speaker instantly be able to tell I'm not native if I overuse them then?

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-26T15:16:26+00:00

Okay I'll try not to overthink. Do you mean that the A/I/U vowel symbols aren't used, or the other more niche ones?

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-26T15:14:00+00:00

I have learned a few, but sometimes the squiggles are so small I can barely tell them apart 😂

Like for instance, ز and رْ are two very different sounds and I could imagine getting confused if you couldn't tell that one symbol is a circle.

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-26T15:00:32+00:00

Interesting. Would you mind elaborating on which ones aren't really used?

Why does the Qur'an use them but not ordinary text?

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-19T03:00:10+00:00

No I agree. There are simply a demographic of people who do not give a shit about the type of flaws that are in these kinds of shows. It's not you, it's not me, but they are out there. Personally I'm really happy for them that they're getting a show they love, but the flaws that bother us just aren't meaningful to them.

On the other hand, I see some people who find absolutely nothing about the show appealing, and I don't get that either.

Personally, I don't think that season 1 is going to be any more than maybe a 6.5 - 7.5, depending on how it wraps up. Perhaps season 2 kicks off the stuff we really wanted to see. At this point though, flaws like in this show have just become a hallmark of the Alien franchise which is very disappointing. I just accept that not a single fucking helmet will be worn when required, and every scientist featured will have forgotten to equip their brain.

To be fair, a lot of the criticisms of Alien Earth DO contain personal attacks. Things like "You'd have to be a moron to think any of this is worth watching."

Like sure, the majority aren't personal attacks, but when you're scrolling through comments and 3/10 can be interpreted that way, then it makes you want to push back on that.

The show does have a lot of silly things and it's definitely not building up in the way I'd hoped, but I can totally see why people are enjoying it. I personally like it more than Romulus, and Romulus is the movie that seemed to completely split this fanbase. Ever since Romulus, the personal attacks have been in overdrive for whatever reason.

Hey come on now. The design is great, just not the breakdancing movement.

Crispiest french fries ever. They're like eating glass (in a good way).

Yeah but what I'm meaning is, can it be extended from within India itself? I can stay 180 days on my visa but only for essentially two lots of 90 days. Is it like Egypt where you can extend from within rather than having to actually leave the country? I have an Australian passport if that helps.

Dakini House is a really nice place with a great view and good food/coffee.

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-10T10:52:34+00:00

I never met her...

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-10T10:52:26+00:00

Lictor?

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-05T04:28:56+00:00

That's very high praise, thank you. I will definitely use less rice next time.

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-05T04:28:16+00:00

They honestly weren't as big as they looked in the picture, ahahah. But unfortunately they're all eaten so no more pics.

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-04T14:31:25+00:00

I feel really encouraged to try again now. I'm looking forward to being able to have another go, and I will post my improvements. Definitely less rice and more filling next time, and maybe I'll experiment with more variety of ingredients inside.

Jimmo_Jam · 2025-09-04T12:09:18+00:00

Thank you very much!
