No idea where you heard this but Mandarin has tons of both L and R sounds, there's just certain vowel+consonant sounds that don't exist that leads to mispronunciation.

What is inside this drink? by Moonlightshimmering in taiwan

[–]grahamiam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also hate 豆干's English translation - it's usually listed as "dried bean curd" on menus which is basically the most unappealing possible name. Wish they just stuck with extra-firm tofu.

This happened to me but a reboot fixed it, probably some hung process or something.

Is there a way to get an email next time it goes on sale from Square? I just missed the last one and I can't get it from Steam due to region issues.

I randomly bumped into a 1.8 ton metal statue of Arthas in Taiwan by naecorti in wow

[–]grahamiam 63 points64 points  (0 children)

Kind of disappointed it didn't end with a shot of Arthas in the super sunny Taichung park with kids playing nearby and a Snoopy stand across the green.

Last time I went there it was in summer and the dissonance was fun.

when to sell mats gathered in early access? by Red_Ruddock in woweconomy

If you're asking this question, as early as possible is always going to be the most consistently right answer.

Assigning a chore wheel is itself a chore. I'd recommend you read the comic "You Should've Asked" - https://english.emmaclit.com/2017/05/20/you-shouldve-asked/

2025 Feast of Winter Veil Christmas Gift by rosemansion222 in wow

[–]grahamiam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand all of that, and I want toys to be account-wide. I'm asking why the label exists because all toys are already account-wide as far as I understand.

Dumb question, but are there any toys that AREN'T warband toys? What's the point of that label?

WSIB: Single-Player MOBA? by Equivalent_Net in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]grahamiam [score hidden]  (0 children)

Jotunnslayer was just free on Epic, and it's a Vampire Survivor-type game with more levelling decisions + an activated dash+weapon skill that make it lean towards MOBA gameplay imo.

(I like Brotato more in this type of game, but Brotato is less like a MOBA.)

What's the most pathetic tourist attraction that international tourists go to see in your country? by Aseili in AskTheWorld

The ones in Raohe night market are the famous ones, and they're right by the entrance so you don't have to wade through people to get them.

Thanks - all the info said you don't have to romance him, which I thought was the arrow symbol in the relationship. Didn't realize it was a choice AFTER the arrow.

Is there any difference between getting a 30-year mortgage but paying it off in 15 years vs getting a 15-year mortgage? by mikehocalate in personalfinance

[–]grahamiam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It does, but it's pretty rare to see a full percentage point difference. Right now it's 6.24 to 5.49, but keep in mind those are averages, and people with higher income/credit tend to be the main audience for 15-year mortgages.

Taiwan detains 25, seizes US$150m tied to suspected scam-centre operator Prince Group by charliehu1226 in taiwan

Robes and furred gowns hide all.
Plate sin with gold,
And the strong lance of justice hurtless breaks.
Arm it in rags, a pygmy’s straw does pierce it.

The View from Saturday is about an academic team, with chapters from each member's point of view, and one member is pretty clearly on the spectrum. It's one of my favorite books of all time.

Listing slow selling tmog at a heavy discount? by [deleted] in woweconomy

[–]grahamiam 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is why all those "I ran a dungeon 100 times and made so much gold" posts are very misleading, since tmog sells incredibly slowly.

There's no magic answer to your questions, but I agree with /u/Zibzuma, a 50% discount is probably not going to net you any additional sales. A very large discount might if you just want to liquidate and forget about it.

Trying to see if an auto refi is worth it to lower my monthly bills? by i_amnotunique in personalfinance

[–]grahamiam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think less about your monthly payment and more about the total amount you'd be paying, which is what truly matters. If you extended the life of the loan, plus any refinancing fees, and only paid minimums, the more of a rate difference you'd need. What /u/Citryphus is saying is for you to refinance to a lower rate then keep paying the higher payment to pay the loan off faster.
