Mine’s sleeping and farting like a horrible goblin on my sister’s bed, so business as usual really. Apparently his 20 minute leisurely stroll around the park was just utterly exhausting.

Over at my parents, their little terrorist has been worn out for once by a half marathon, and is having some actually deserved rest.

Back in uni I discovered I can titrate perfectly. Normally you have to do at least 5 or 6 titrations and average the ones that match closest, but I never needed more than 2; A rough titration to get a ballpark figure, then a second to get the exact volume. Any more after that only ever confirmed the first figure.
My professor didn’t believe me the first time I came up to her and said my 2 measurements were identical, so told me to do it again in front of her. I produced the same measurement again, and she said she’d never seen anyone do that before, but I’d still have to do at least 3 measurements each time for my coursework.

Unfortunately I’ve never titrated anything since leaving uni.

I think you can edit everything except which community you posted it to.

Major spoilers for A2, but it opens at a school in the town of St. Ivalice before the protagonist awakens in Ivalice roughly circa ffxii. It eventually turns out that another kid at school found a magic book or something and recreated the world as they want it to be, so you have to get them to wake up to return the world to how it was.

Theres nothing in the game to clarify whether that means any of the events happened in the timeline or not, or what it means for the other games.

Somewhere between most and all of the Ivalice games are confirmed to take place in the same timeline, though the entire place may just be a child’s dream so :shrug:

The timeline is something like XII->tactics a2->tactics->vagrant story->tactics advance, with legendary events between a2 and tactics that lock off magic.

Revenge was my favourite. Not for the racing, but because when you crashed you could explode your car to fuck up the competition.

It’s just a stereotype.

I need you to be honest - do you not know what stereotypes are, or do you not know what racism is? Stereotyping is one of the conceptual parts of racism, so saying it’s not racist because it’s a stereotype is like saying pizza isn’t Italian because it’s from Naples.

stopped being used offensively several decades ago, and was then repurposed into being a praise of sorts.

Could you give me sources for when this happened for “ricing” and “ricer”? Because there are a lot of people in this thread telling you that it’s still offensive, and I’m pretty sure they know a little bit more than you about racism.

Probably G2A you’re thinking of, I’m pretty certain GMG are official.

not exactly how I phrased it

Yeah, no shit buddy, and your “gist” can be pretty forcibly rejected by reading these, which use some form of the term without defending it: https://hexbear.net/comment/5821220 https://hexbear.net/comment/5819913 https://hexbear.net/comment/5821145 https://hexbear.net/comment/5819994

Bold of you to assume I have smth against groups of ppl based on their race

So it’s not that you have anything against asian people, you just think it’s ok to use a term that origtinated in saying japanese people eat so much rice they even run their cars on it. Uh huh. Would you defend the N-word on the basis that it’s a commonly used word and you don’t understand why it’s so bad?

just an assumption you’re from the US

Extremely unsafe assumption, but newsflash - your ancestors don’t need to be the specific ones who invented a racism for it to be racist to act like them. If you copy someone else’s racism you are still the one being racist. You’ve been told multiple times by multiple people that the term is racist, but you’re arguing it’s not racist because you don’t know how it’s racist. Have you maybe considered you’re just not very smart and need to study racism a bit more? Maybe learn what this whole “microaggression” thing people keep talking about it?

the “wrong” ones that used the “r-word” happened to be blocked

I’m sure you can find enough examples of the word rice, ricing, and ricer to put two and two together and realise the “r-word” isn’t what got them blocked.

there is a comment from another mod that explicitly tells they’ll remove stuff using that.

No it doesn’t, because that hasn’t happened.

nor is it derogatory in its current form

Are you really not able to put together how transferring a term used to deride body modifications (using ethnic associations) to UI modifications is derogatory? Do you think it magically lost context somewhere along the way, the history of the term just disappearing into the aether?

I’d also like to play along and give you folks another (and, arguably, a more worthy) which hunt target

Stop trying to worm out of this you wretched little shit. Defend using that on the site and you’ll also get your comments removed, but we’re talking about your racism right now.

u fukin wot

Umm no it isn’t sweaty, it clearly says the source is [organisation founded by Adrian zenz] and [organisation that funds Adrian zenz]

Are you telling me that you have so little understanding of slurs and their use that you think people are getting banned for saying using the word rice? You cannot be serious. How dare you think you have the intelligence to hold an opinion.

I know what you’re arguing you fucking dunce, I just told you you’re wrong. There are plenty of slurs that aren’t as bad as the n-word, you’re not allowed to use any of them. And b) doesn’t matter. You don’t use the n-word even if a black person “gives you permission”, because that makes you a fucking racist.

You are stupid because you decided to waste time talking about not knowing what words mean instead of taking a few seconds to look it up. What you write is incoherent because you very obviously have difficulty with both word and sentence formation and heavily lean on phonetics for spelling simple words like “road” - i.e, you suffer from dyslexia, the term you used as an insult in your first comment. You are stupid because you try to use words like “incoherent” and “dyslexic” without knowing what they mean. Do you understand the difference yet?

What the fuck are you on about sports for? I’m telling you to look in a dictionary if you don’t know what a word means. There’s no competition here, I’m trying to teach you basic facts that everyone else already knows.

I just told you you don’t have to guess you dumb fuck, ableism actually appears in dictionaries. Unlike “lingoism”, a word with no defined meaning, because you just made it up.

For fucks sake, you can’t even spell able, you have no right to call anyone dyslexic.

Assumes i know what ableism means. It means nothing to me. This is the truth. I could look it up, but it just looks like, lingoism

I’m gonna be real with you sib, this has levels. First of all, you don’t know what ableism is? Are you 10? Even if you hadn’t encountered the word before, are you seriously so ignorant that you can’t guess a definition from the fact that it’s made up of “able” and “ism”? Even worse, you know you could look it up, but you’re rather remain ignorant. What the fuck kind of respect do you think you’re gonna get for saying you’re an idiot that doesn’t want to learn?
Well take a second to overlook those things though, take the wider view of you refusing to look into a word you’re unfamiliar with because it’s “lingoism”. So you won’t find out what a real word means because of a word you just made up. What is it even supposed to mean - some sort of language ideology? Are you saying you won’t look it up because it’s a word? The entire premise is just so fucking incoherent.

Censoring my speech, i’m also not really interested in. So i’ll say some shiat

You already used “caunt”, so there’s 2 possibilities here: either yes you do censor yourself, otherwise you’d be writing shit and c**t, or you’re just dyslexic, in which case you’re trying to insult people by saying they’re just like you.

Whatever the case is for either part, it is extraordinarily evident that you’re thicker than pig shit. Just stay on gitbhub, you don’t have the intelligence for opinions.

What’s confusing about being told to chill it with the ableism? You used dyslexic as a slur.

Edit: and then misspelt another slur

I think you’re referring to the gardening implement, but Hexbear did a funny to your comment:

It’s not like black people using the N-word, it’s like white people using the n-word because a stranger on the internet said it’s ok.

aside from the use of the “r-word”

You don’t think them casually dropping a slur might invalidate their opinion on whether a different word is a slur? Fucking LLM-ass logic right there.
