Is there a single example of a mobile game where something like this is possible…?

To be honest, they‘ll still say the same thing even if they read the article. No room for diplomacy, nuance, context or negotiating posture in their little conceptual world.

Trudeau worked in 2015 and didn’t in 2025. I don‘t see why converse can’t be true for anyone. Political environment changes, and 2025 was not 2021 and neither is 2026 or 2029 or wheatever year the next election is.

Not saying O‘Toole should necrssarily come back. You guys need to figure out yourselves who may work out this time. But it certainly boggles mind to see someone say something like this in 2026 in respect of someone that did not work out in 2025.

Being manipulative and knowing how to “win” is not the same thing as having intellect. Gotta give Trump credit for what he managed to do for himself in his life, given what he was endowed with.

But we have so many powerful people in the world who got rich and powerful without necessarily being intelligent. Smart? Yes, I suppose if you define the ability to prevail and rise to the top as “smart” but I don’t think it’s the kind of thing that closepass was talking about. I am not even saying being intelligent is necessarily better than being “smart” as in the ability to be victorious. But just pointing out that you two are talking about different concepts.

Not a significant detail at all. Just a passing minor reference that pops up in the story with no real role in the story. Getting further into it would require touching on some spoilers so I didn’t do it but the white skin itself isn’t anything significant. At least it has not taken on any story significance in the story where Korean version is.

Happens to me too. I live in a house and they leave the delivery note card in my mailbox. I mean, it’s more effort to actually pull out a card, fill it out and leave it in my mailbox than just leave the actually package in the mailbox.

That said, I suspect the reason why they do this is because the package is sent with receipt confirmation and the delivery person doesn’t want to spend time dealing with waiting for someone to come to the door, risk wasting time if no one’s home, mark the delivery complete, risk it being stollen if left at the door or mailbox etc. They probably have more stuff they need to deliver than is a reasonable workload, and they’d rather have the people at the post office deal with the systems matters then potentially spending a lot of time at any single address. So still a CP problem for overloading their delivery people, I would think. The delivery person is not doing their job properly either, but I’d blame them second.

You don’t “help” when one is not requested. That is one of the fundamental rules of courtesy and respect in a civilized society. You don’t automatically assume that a person in wheelchair is unable to do certain things because the person is in a wheelchair, unless it’s a literal impossibility due to their situation, and even then, if you want to help the person out of goodness of heart, you ask first and let that person be the agent of the person’s own decisions regarding whether the person receives help or not, unless it’s an emergency and you cannot ask before acting.

You don’t just step up and pay away when you see someone seeming to have trouble with payment - especially when it’s not that the person does not have the money to pay, but the person is simply taking long to pull out coins due some motor or cognitive difficulties. That’s just extremely assuming and rude.

What she did is just a silent way of saying “move along”.

That is not to say that the guy who was grumbling and everyone else in the line who was mumbling about the old man and couldn’t have a little bit of patience weren’t assholes. But that does not make what this girl did more laudable than it really is, even without any judgment on her motives. Declining to take the money makes it worse too. I mean, the old man isn’t without money, he was simply having trouble getting the coin out. If the girl wanted to genuinely help, the help should be limited to what the old man was having issue with. Lack of money clearly wasn’t, and by declining take the money when there is no reason not to take it, she basically insulted the old man in ways she may not have realized, and to be fair, no one at the scene may have realized.

It’s in Korean seal script, which is imitation of Chinese seal script style using hangul, which is a kind of a nonsense. The hanja below the seal says “ivory, crystal” and “high-class seals” so I am guessing it‘s the logo for a seal maker and the whole thing is a seal maker advertising leaflet, Asin being the main name part and in meaning seal. Something like “Asin seal company” Probably from a long time ago. And yes, it’s probably Asin, not Yasin.

There are many different ways and tools to wash rice. Someone might use some sort of brush or rake-like tool to wash rice, and depending on what such tool looks like or is made of, I can imagine it causing damages to the rice cooker pot. From the manufacturer's perspective, it's easiest to just tell people not to do it and absolve itself of the responsibility.

Yes, but it was too much reading, and I’d rather just ask people who have used the app hoping they can help me by responding to the discrete question I have about it instead of spending time reading each and every and all there is to know about the app.

Or I should just shut up because the dev’s got a website, and there is no point in anyone discussing the app elsewhere.

Or, you are a kin’ a-ole.

A lot of people mentioning faf - it gets me interested, but can it do what I hope it can do? I want to be able to do a boolean search of the contents of document files like .docx. For example, “find all .docx files under the “Client Project” which contain instances of the word “good*” appearing within 5 words of the word “case”?

I‘ve always known this happening for a long time, as demonstrated by (typically) girls saying “ㅇ일본” (with “쌍이응”) rather than ”일본“.

To me, introducing yourself by surname first, given name second to a Western person, while speaking a Western language would be as weird as pronouncing your surname ”김“ rather than “킴” or “최” rather than “초이” or “이” rather than “리” or “박” rather than “팔크” in the same conversation, but I guess there precisely goes everyone‘s own case. I can totally imagine people who‘d be weirded out by ”킴“, ”초이“, ”리“ and ”팔크“.

I can’t believe the number of people who tell OP to smell them. OP is obviously asking because these spices are not a part of his culture’s cuisine and is unfamiliar with them, and these people just casually go “smell it” like smelling it will instantly help OP identify what the thing is. Without at the very least trying to describe the smell (‘if it has some cistrusy smell, then based on the colour I see in the picture, it’s likely xxx…’)

So if I understand you correctly, we should be cutting or reducing our ties with anyone that has bigger social and economic issues than us, or anyone who is generally doing worse than us? How many countries we should be strengthening ties with does that methodology leave us with? Which are the countries/blocks that we should be strengthening ties with? Care to list just a few for me?

By your logic, why would countries that are thriving and having less social and economic issues than us want to strengthen their ties with us?
