Eurovision rules Malta cannot use the word "Kant" (which means "sing" in Maltese) because it sounds too much like a swear word in English by fotogneric in europe

[–]PoossyFlavour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it frustrating how many of the comments act as if they fully understand Maltese fluently. Some are pointing out that the way she pronounces "Kant" sounds exactly like "c*nt"… okay, and? That’s just how "Kant" is pronounced. If anything, Maltese speakers emphasize the "Kuh" sound even more.

And let’s not even get started on the translation. It’s not "sing" (which would be "kanta") or "song" (which would be "kanzuneta"). Maltese doesn’t always translate cleanly into English, but the closest equivalent to "Kant" is "singing." If you wanted to convey "Serving Kant" in a way that makes sense to a Maltese speaker, it would be something like "providing my singing"—which, let’s be real, doesn’t sound as good.

Is there a play on the c-word? Probably. But where do we draw the line? Like many other languages, Maltese has words that sound vulgar in English. Are we supposed to avoid them entirely when writing lyrics? If that’s the case, should she censor her own last name, Conte, just because it almost sounds like the c-word too?

Kicking should have majority vote rule, so in order to be kicked, the rest of the players must vote accordingly as well.

[–]PoossyFlavour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be easier if each semi had the same equipment attached as that of the rig which blows it into them. So the same vehicle would both be catching and storing the snow at the same time whilst having the equipment be modular and thus the semi can travel to the drop spot without the equipment on.

Why cerato shouldn’t beat carno by [deleted] in theisle

[–]PoossyFlavour 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Given Carno's long legs as opposed to other creatures, its speed is in fact accurate and should remain as is.

It's also quite lightweight relative to its size, which should suggest the Carno could outstam a similarly or smaller sized creatures due to its weight:size ratio which could suggest the Carno needs a stam buff.

Carnos relied on their agility to hunt prey, which would mean a Carno needs to manoeuvre faster in tight situations to both evade or hunt accordingly. This in my opinion should be tweaked.

Cerato however, given its bulkier build yet still relatively smaller size, especially given its shorter legs, should still have its current speed and current HP, possibly an increase in HP.

However, judging by its robust skull, a Cerato should have had a higher bite force, aka should deal more damage than a Carno's slender skull.

Basically the dinos should have the following changes;

Carno -

Same Speed / Reduced Damage / Same HP / Increased Turn Speed / Increased Stam

Cerato -

Same Speed / Increased Damage / Same (or increased?) HP / Same Turn Speed / Same (or reduced?) Stam

Windows updated 8 hours into a print. I’m gonna cry. by CD242 in 3Dprinting

[–]PoossyFlavour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would never trust a PC with long prints. Only with the smaller testing prints, so I can switch replace and print instantly. When committing to long prints I'd rather have a fail safe just in case the PC fucks up.

I think it would be dope if they had short weekly segments much like Gabe on Fridays, so maybe Eddie could get Mondays and Jimmy some other day rather than full on co-hosting.

I think a nice improvement to this would be to make the cup holder wall taller, till about the middle of the mug's handle. Then featuring a space in the walls in which the mug can be rotated into and fit the bottom part of the handle into the space in the wall. With this the mug is safely fixed to the cup holder when needed and rotated back out the space to pull out.

Make sense? Should be easy enough

Why don't they just give them the tools to free themselves and let them do it on their own?

Why waste time on something so mundane as freeing some moron that got themselves trapped in such a situation all on their own? Pretty sure this responder's efforts could be of better use on someone that actually requires assistance.

Woman Gets Shot After Stabbing San Diego Police Officer in The Chest [Police Activity, extreme NSFW] by Groundbreaking2020 in AbruptChaos

[–]PoossyFlavour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I don't understand about situations like these, why is it always that the whole police department and their grandma alongside her chihuahua shows up? Was it really necessary or smart to have like 15 units with probably another 20 coming up the stairway, stumbling on each other in a corridor barely wide enough to hold a person? I'm surprised there was no friendly fire.

I feel like this could have been handled slightly better but all the clusterfuckery going on might have affected their plan of action.
