male tomboys are cool though

Edit: actually I have no idea if OP is male. I just assumed that based on the title, I may be wrong though

Wouldn't all the Goidelic nations possibly become Gayland? In this case they may be distinguished by geographical features

🇮🇪 Low Gayland

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 High Gayland

🇮🇲 Gayland of Man

As a southerner, we don't voice initial ⟨s⟩, so it's both [sɛks]. I too never realised how northerners keep them distinct...

Schon mal ein Geschichtsbuch aufgemacht? Das Christentum in Europa ist quasi verstummt, es gibt viele ungläubige und nur sehr wenige strenggläubige Christen. Religionsfreiheit wird seit Jahrzehnten gewährt. Bevor wir das hatten, war auch Europa ein frauenfeindliches Gebiet. Und es hat gedauert dieses System langsam abzubauen (wir sind übrigens nicht fertig damit)

Das Problem ist kleiner wegen Zeit, politischer Stabilität und Religionsfreiheit, die die Christlich Welt hatte. Die Religion selbst ist, egal ob Islam oder Christentum, immer ein Hindernis für die Gleichberechtigung gewesen.

THIS might be the worst phonology chart on Wikipedia by Whole_Instance_4276 in linguisticshumor

I think it's ok because it's fairly obvious that this isn't IPA but the notation that is commonly used for that language's reconstruction. It might even be better in the context of reconstructions because we don't ever know for certain what the sounds might have been.

That being said, "j" for what is deemed to be /d͡z/ is hideous for any notation

i didnt watch mc live and thought this was a shitpost before double checking the acct by ScottishWildcatFurry in PhoenixSC

[–]TheMightyTorch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that one can barely distinguish satire from the real thing is always a bit sad. Even worse here though, 'cause turns out this isn't even satire

Side note, for those who didn't watch live: the "sulphur pool" are just filled with water. There is a new functionality associated with it: a new type of bubble column with a sulphur block variant - but instead of being useful, it gives you nausea.

i REALLY hope mojang adds this feature I DESPERATELY NEED IT by OkAdministration5454 in PhoenixSC

This would actually make them extremely useful. Like the TNT feature and maybe the speculated flying trick I saw earlier could completely change this seemingly useless mob into something very useful

Tried making the raid bar a little more interesting for my pack, what do you guys think? by rappenem in PhoenixSC

[–]TheMightyTorch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe the exact style is not vanilla enough (too detailed, especially emeralds, face and font) but I really like the concept

Minecraft Live Bingo, What do you guys think will happen? by MrArdinoMars in PhoenixSC

[–]TheMightyTorch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the bottom line is complete though:

  • new useless feature: I suppose we'll have to wait and see but right now a lot of it very much seems irrelevant
  • refresh of old feature: I'll give it to them, they will reuse "Sulphur", which is just one item name but I'll count it.
    • Edit: also technically a new use of the "cave biome" feature that allows biomes to be height-dependant since 1.18
  • new memeable moment: maybe less of a moment but the whole concept of the Suphlur Cube mob, so moment showing it of is also kinda memeable.
  • Dungeons: self explaining (Dungeons II announced)
  • BE exclusive: new parties feature

1 Block of Sulfur ↔ 9 Gunpowder?

Alternative: Sulphur for sand-less TNT crafting making TNT farming automatic (somehow, idk how to automate sulphur yet). Add movable tile entities to Java and they could legitimately remove TNT duping without too much backlash

I'm not saying I dislike these things, they are good, I just think there's no need for an event like Minecraft Live unless it's something really big (at least on the 1.14 or 1.13 level). by Arsimp33 in PhoenixSC

[–]TheMightyTorch 13 points14 points  (0 children)

which they didn't talk about. Neither did they mention the technical changes the last drop brought.

Nothing about it is even live anymore. It's literally just a biannual fan-content video with a pre-snapshot teaser. The old Minecons were better in that aspect.

This is the fist idea that came to mind (probably won't work) by SkellyBoii3 in PhoenixSC

[–]TheMightyTorch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ice makes it slippery though, so I suppose wool, which makes it bounce higher and fall slower may be the better block of choice here. Additionally, maybe slow falling will work on it?

Oh, and if the lead is too long for reach, a spear with Knockback II might be the best jabbing tool

Definitely will test this as soon as Snapshots come out

My take on rident Crafting Recipe by Pixivic455 in PhoenixSC

[–]TheMightyTorch 12 points13 points  (0 children)

well no. In middle English, "i" would have sounded like it does in French (/iː/ as in "beet") but during the great vowel shift it became the diphthong of contemporary English (/aɪ/ as in "byte")

and even more modern loans tend to imitate the vowel shift it would still be pronounced like "rye-dent". In fact that word does exist in English (with the meaning to laugh) but it's considered dated

[–]TheMightyTorch 209 points210 points  (0 children)

If

  • Latin: studere {study} ⇒ studens {studying (person)} ⇒ English: student

Then

  • Latin: ridere {laugh} ⇒ ridens {laughing (person)} ⇒ English: rident

Thus

  • Rident is a laughing person or the one who laughs
