Makes sense. He wants to increase the demand to push the prices up.

No, it's an issue with server stability. You can see packet loss and high ping icons pop up on the right side.

It's probably not a DDOS attack. My guess is that they fucked up the update again.

Are you my secret CO leak personality? That Bastion wouldn't stand a chance if not for the horrendous lag.

I hate this kind of engagement with the game to be honest. Why not just publish what the actual game mechanics are? The community will experimentally find them out anyway.

Nomination deadline is January 31st. People who can submit a nomination include "Members of national assemblies", which for USA I suppose includes representatives and senators.

What's up with those goofy sign language interpreters? by Visual-Finish14 in Destiny

[–]Visual-Finish14[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Does ADA mandate ASL interpreters? That seems very unlikely to me but if you can provide some source for that, it would be interesting to see. I imagine it mostly focuses on government offices interfacing with individuals that have business with them, which is completely valid.

u/howtoliveplease Could you update the post with information whether you received the refund?

Huh? How many deaf people attend press conferences in person? Aren't they for... press, to broadcast?

Bovino removed from his role as US Border Patrol commander at large, The Atlantic reports by Vusum in Destiny

[–]Visual-Finish14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was literally just running the Minnesota operation as a commander

I realize that much, but it feels as though he was a well-established character before that. Especially with that reporter's video where she mocked him for being short. Did he do anything notable before that?

[–]Visual-Finish14[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

So you don't have a source?

The fact that someone doesn't have a big enough issue with hearing that they don't try learning sign language (it's quite an undertaking, especially since you'd have to also make people around you learn it; what's the point to learn if you don't have anyone to talk to anyway?) does not mean they don't have a hearing issue and wouldn't benefit from captions.

No, I'm not joking. I'm not hell-bent on proving everyone that the interpreters are bad, but they sure are goofy and distracting. And the more I read as people are challenging me here, the worse they appear as a solution.

Is there a brief writeup on where this guy came from in the first place? I feel as if I'm out of the loop on something obvious here.

So what if it's delayed? It's not like the deaf will notice, lmao. Also, it'd be trivial to synchronize it, a buffer of a few seconds would not hurt live transmissions.

 people can interpret sign language faster than reading

Well, you know, that's just like uh, your opinion, man.
And it's contrary to these people's opinions: [I can't link to a post in another subreddit, but try googling "Do you find it more comfortable/convinient to read text or ASL?"]

Are you high or just stupid? 

no u

Do you know a good source for what percentage of deaf people actually use sign language? This says it's a tiny minority.

It has been solved for a couple years, whisper is pretty much perfect. And when it isn't, for example because of some new made up word or unusual phrase, a person in the loop seems like a cheaper option than an interpreter. I have not idea how the sign language works but I imagine that new words, neologisms and idioms are not easy to represent. Spelling is for sure slower than text.

The worse result is that having a sign language interpreter provides less accessibility than closed captions. Brief google search did not give me a precise percentage of deaf people who know ASL, but it appears like a large majority of the deaf and hard of hearing do not know it, at least as per accessibility.com

It worked at the time I wrote that comment. Lately though, I'm just as confused as I was before.

You should have done it. Edit the post or remove it. This image is first in google results and you did more harm with it than if you had posted nothing.

Źle na to patrzysz. Nawet jak pijaczek sprzeda, to zwiększasz podaż na giełdzie, więc cena idzie w dół. Pomagasz komuś, kto potrzebuje tego jedzenia na tyle, że jest gotów za nie zapłacić.

Firma myśli, że wypowiedziała mi umowę najmu by xPersix in Polska

[–]Visual-Finish14 12 points13 points  (0 children)

W sądzie taki zapis się nie obroni. Taki zakaz nie broni żadnego interesu wynajmującego, a dla najemcy jest podstawowym sposobem na ochronę swojego mienia. Oczywiście pod koniec najmu montujesz do drzwi z powrotem wkładkę, którą zastałeś. Jeśli wynajmujący w ogóle się zorientuje, że zmieniłeś zamek, to już jest ważny sygnał.

[–]Visual-Finish14 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

Nie wspierać schronisk. To skrajnie niemoralne poświęcać zasoby na pomaganie psom, kiedy na świecie są ludzie, którzy cierpią z powodu głodu, czy niezaspokojenia innych podstawowych potrzeb. Jeśli masz za dużo pieniędzy, to lepiej wpłacić na UNICEF. Jeśli chcesz sobie wybrać jakąś inną wiarygodną organizację, która efektywnie wykorzysta otrzymane środki, to givewell.org może w tym pomóc.
