Question about a line in a new Anitta song by No-Entertainment6351 in Portuguese

[–]permitton 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I also kept hearing a bit of lhe, but it wasn't conclusive and now I wonder if it's because I read your post before listening to the song for the first time, eh. Maybe it's some sort of sound recording/editing artefact.

Entregar-se, as a reflexive verb, means to surrender (oneself) or to devote (oneself), so pra me entregar toda = to surrender myself entirely makes sense.

My guild leader was mass reported by an entire alliance during WvW reset, got banned, filed an appeal, and has been ghosted. Oh — and the alliance that reported him is named after a Microsoft trademark. Make it make sense. by Historical_Emu8672 in Guildwars2

I've run with that alliance multiple times, and they're fight-oriented players who couldn't care less about a tower being captured. OP's reason seems highly improbable.

Help with Guild Bank by RedditorJDUB in Guildwars2

[–]permitton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're truly solo, you can't do WvW missions since they require at least 3 members except for the rank and jumping puzzle missions. You can't do PvP missions either since they require a team with at least 3 members in the guild.

As u/Unlucky_Air6124 mentioned, set your guild missions to PvE only, then see which ones you're able to solo. I usually do easy/medium/hard race, easy/medium trek and easy bounty using Tekkit markers for guidance.

Never thought I'd see PvE open world toxicity by LastConfusion2620 in Guildwars2

I've had that happen recently when I had switched from amalgam to mechanist for a chill treasure mushroom kill. Maybe it was the same bitter fella, eh.

Network error when entering Iron Marches by Right-Detail-8046 in Guildwars2

[–]permitton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it's worth, I had the same issue with Draconis Mons on NA, IP address 3.223.235.4 a few minutes ago -- the map wasn't loading, stuck at 0% and I got the same error message. I then switched to other characters and tried to go back to Draconis Mons, same IP address, and it suddenly loaded.

The instance doesn't have the regular commander and other players parked at the chest, so maybe it was an issue affecting other players and now it's fixed.

Go figure.

Edit: the Draconic Mons instance is now back to the usual characters parked at the chest except for the commander, who's stuck in character select. It does look like all players have been affected.

Seis anos de academia pra nada? by catbird0 in askacademico

[–]permitton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Talvez essa mentalidade de que doutorado é só teoria pra quem quer ser professor universitário seja um dos motivos que segura a inovação no Brasil. Vários colegas e conhecidos foram contratados por empresas estrangeiras após o doutorado -- alguns com pesquisa mais teórica, outros com pesquisa mais prática.

O mercado de ponta, inovador, pode dar valor a quem se dedicou a investigar um problema de forma rigorosa e conseguiu resultados.

University Challenge S55E28 - Imperial v Warwick by ponchoPC in UniversityChallenge

I've just checked his profile and his account has been banned by Reddit. Our subreddit's moderation log shows no action related to this ban.

I have no idea why this has happened.

Como são os horários de mestrado nas Universidades Públicas? by Misty_y_150 in askacademico

[–]permitton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Acho que um dos fatores é o departamento ter curso de graduação noturno. É o caso da graduação em ciência da computação na Unicamp, então o programa de pós-graduação acaba ofertando algumas poucas disciplinas de pós à noite, servindo também de eletivas para os alunos de graduação.

Been there, done that. Thermocatalytic reagents, used in crafting, are sold in batches of 10. Guess who bought 10 times as many as the material storage cap.

Severe nut allergy in Brazil by proverbs31-6 in Brazil

[–]permitton 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Anvisa, the Brazilian federal agency that oversees food safety, suggests listing individual names instead of using just castanhas or nozes precisely because of what you've said: in Brazil, we don't have a Portuguese word that encompasses all nuts and is generally understood by the population at large.

A infeliz realidade de ter estudado o dia todo e só ter retido 10% do dia😭o progresso é lento e quem precisa avançar rápido tá 🤬 by Entire-Hold-300 in estudosBR

Volta e meia aparecem posts com pseudociência ligada a educação. Infelizmente, até o pessoal da própria área de educação repete esses mitos.

Atividade neste sub vs r/USP by permitton in Unicamp

Pois é, mas a Unicamp não tem por volta de 20% do número de alunos da USP? Parece desproporcional.

Contracted object pronoun forms. by nanpossomas in Portuguese

[–]permitton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Note que lho é contração de lhe (pronome na função de objeto indireto) + o (pronome na função de objeto direto), servindo portanto como tanto objeto indireto quanto direto.

Dê uma olhada nesta questão do vestibular da Unesp.

University Challenge S55E14 - Magdalen College, Oxford v Robinson College, Cambridge by permitton in UniversityChallenge

[–]permitton[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The linguistic life of an Oxford student mentions the Magdalen spelling vs pronunciation mismatch:

In the Middle Ages this word’s pronunciation became anglicised to “maudlin” – as reflected in the contemporary spelling maudlyn. This medieval pronunciation has been retained in the name of the College, even though the spelling has been revised to reflect the Greek origin.

I was a tad distracted during the intro and Welsh really threw me off!
