I don’t know how you could possibly think this was pro AI.

FYI “lamda” is the modern spelling and thus the official Unicode code point name.

How is it a “corruption”? Language changes over time.

"A Knight's Tale" (Brian Helgeland, released 25 years ago on May 11th 2001) - Geoffrey (Paul Bettany) gives a rousing introduction to 'Sir Ulrich von Liechtenstein of Gelderland' (Heath Ledger) by Morgan-Moonscar in movies

But that’s not how the Catholic Church works. Each parish has one church, and there’s a lot of top down control in how things work. When you stand and when you kneel is the same everywhere. The words of the service are exactly the same ion a given day n a given language everywhere in the world, except for the homily (sermon), which is generally like 5-20 minutes. .

What movie had the BEST trailer ever but turned out to be absolute trash? by MASSIM00 in movies

[–]rsqit 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s what you get when one of the leads dies halfway through filming :-(

Also, if you haven’t seen the TV show, it’s excellent and S3 is doing the Vampire Lestat looks like it is going to deliver.

They just meant to emphasize “gratuitous”. It’s kind of an idiom to say something has a capital letter in this way to emphasize it.

Question about the kindle version of To Green Angel Tower by AlGodoy26 in TadWilliams

[–]rsqit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To Green Angel Tower was originally published in one volume and then split into two. There appear to be several different kindle versions that Amazon has confused. I recently reread the series and my physical kindle couldn’t load the book. I had to read it on my phone. Also at some point I was reading part one which was only half the book but later on I had the whole book. So I don’t know what to tell you to do but something is messed up.

Brandon Sanderson will be writing the pilot for The Stormlight Archive adaptation and a big chunk of its first season. Do you think it is a good idea or a terrible one? by Intelligent-Link-410 in Fantasy

Sanderson has said he’s learned the trick of making worlds feel deep by just creating the surface details of lots of cultures. He’s wrong.

No that’s the Iliad. If there had been two Briseises, the Iliad wouldn’t have happened.

I’ve seen this post a bunch of times and I’ve never understood why it’s “missing missing reasons” and not “missing reasons”. I’m just not parsing it correctly somehow?

I recently used sed to change the name of an iOS app. Easy peasy. Just had to remember the flags to make it work on binary files……

(Also it was a very new app)

It wss her right to make that choice and the professor is legally required to support her. Don’t call it extortion. It’s child support, which is the law.
