Are capybaras as chill as their reputation suggests, or is that more a feature of cases that are used to captivity? If the memes/images/videos are to be believed, I’d expect to be able to just wander up to one in the wild and have it respond like a well-socialized pet dog.
“Inconvenience” would be the verb for causing an inconvenience. So in the sentence you’re going for, “inconvene” would have to be replaced with the passive “be inconvenienced” (“we’ve gotta be inconvenienced and grovel to google a bit”). I don’t believe we have a separate word for “endure an inconvenience”, although it seems like the kind of thing some languages might have a single word for. Stylistically I’d probably restructure the sentence to “we’ve gotta put up with the inconvenience” rather than just using the passive verb, but yeah.
I think you’d most often see this verb in the stock phrase “Sorry to inconvenience you”.
GEB is pop science, it’s not math heavy at all
Pro wrestling is fake (or, is all just fiction, like a TV show or a theater performance). Wrestling and boxing are not fake.
Do you have any additional info about the changes they’re making to the mission? I didn’t see that in the article
Honestly I think this is the point of confusion. This guy has somehow never heard the word used anywhere other than the widespread military usage and his own field. Weird that that’s the case, but given that starting point I don’t think it’s crazy for him to say “why are people in my field acting like we’ve fought in a war? Maybe we should chill and take ourselves less seriously”.
Obviously there’s the additional problems of not googling things before trying to make a public point, and apparently doubling down when corrected. But I see where a sufficiently sheltered person could get there at least.
this improved my mental health
got any pictures of turtles wearing ferretnecks?
this community has the most diverse info on anything mounted on a rack
I’m gonna start asking all my bra fitting questions here
Well you can start here, then spend a few decades reading and thinking about it, and get back to us when you’ve figured it out
He’s talking about the belgariad/malloreon, by David Eddings. It seems like he may not have read the second paragraph mentioning the death gate cycle, hence the confusion.
The Belgariad is a series of 5 books, and the Malloreon is a sequel series which is also 5 books.
This stuff is generally archived and indexed elsewhere, that’s just where the main request threads are
Google “da archive” and be prepared for a rabbit hole of archived 4chan threads and indexes that probably have whatever games you’re looking for if you’re willing to dig long enough
Talking to people and examining writing will usually drop references to a couple of other places to explore, or to unanswered questions that are worth looking into. Even if they seem minor, these almost inevitably lead to putting together pieces of the larger story, regardless of which pieces you start with. I don’t specifically remember what whistling guy talks about, but it sounds like that’s the only potential lead you’ve found so far. It’s certainly possible to make progress without ever talking to him, via all kinds of things that can be independently stumbled on, but if you haven’t found anything else I bet revisiting his dialogue will give you an idea on where to search next.
(Okay, I checked the wiki and can confirm that, while Esker is not the richest source of new options in the game, his dialogue does include instructions that lead to new threads for you to pull on)
Where have you visited so far? Usually I’d think you’ve encountered something other than the ship within a few hours, and most of the things you can encounter should give you ideas as to what else to explore. Have you literally only floated around in the ship, or is that a way of saying that the things you’ve found aren’t interesting to you?
There are hacky ways to do it through a frontend that can only block communities. Any time a post appears from that instance, automatically block the community and hide the post. I don’t know if jerboa would prefer to wait until a more elegant solution is possible and/or leave it to the user though.
they probably fell into an empty enclosure one day and the zookeepers just rolled with it and put up a sign
