I also don’t get why it only includes NI and not Eire. Don’t most Americans go to Dublin, Cork, Galway, Waterford, Limerick?

funkless_eckto Fuck Subscriptions@lemmy.world•Imagine paying for Paramount Plus to then have missing episodesEnglish5·4 days agoI did some googling, apparently its a holocaust joke that most networks are scared will attract litigation.
Most of the other banned episodes are due to jokes about real life child death or acts of terrorism that the studios are concerned will either attract litigation or copycat killers.

my partner is a teacher, she catches about 5 students out by assignment with just the white text on white background thing, “Include the word mango” and she gets essays on the kabuki tradition with paragraphs about how you can enjoy a juicy mango while watching it.
In reality, it doesn’t need to be as draconian as you say, it just needs to be focused around demonstrating an understanding in a way an LLM can’t fake.
they’re 8. I used to teach 9-10 year olds and it’s not their fault, they aren’t stupid but they are kids and sometimes the things they do aren’t fully thought through or appropriate and they don’t know better.
funkless_eckto Games@lemmy.world•Bungie confirms it stole art once again, will undertake a 'thorough review' of Marathon assetsEnglish8·6 days agoI did. Luckily there were points where it was shit enough to be able to leave without looking back.
I beat The Black Heart, Atheon, Crota, Oryx, Siva, Xol, Ghaul, Calus, Riven, Nezerac, Savathun, and The Witness, plus AlakHul, Atraks, Sepiks, Taniks, the Forsaken Baron, a bunch of Vex Gatelords and Overminds… I rediscovered 3 Dark Subclasses plus a fourth Light one and then merged them, I became an Iron Lord, a Dregden and went to Osiris’ Lighthouse in D1 and D2, healed the Traveller (twice), I witnessed my own funeral in the Corridors of Time, bringing back Saint 14, I saved and killed Rasputin and Prince/Crow, became Taken and beat Sword Logic, Vex Simulations, and Nightmares themselves: including the real world that’s four entire realities I conquered and I communed with The Long Boi In The Soup. I saw the whole story through. Anything that happens now is of lesser concern, so I can leave.
For me the big mistake started with the Dreaming City: when the world first raid changed the game for other players- I wasn’t the main character any more and canonically all the raids and boss fights after that were done by other players, and mine (canonically even!) just fantasized about it pretending I was there. Even in the very last fight against the Witness, canonically, I was just one of hundreds of thousands in a faceless army that defeated it together.

I know this is a joke, but there’s no way a full body suit predates vests as a clothing item. You can make a rough vest without sewing, not the case for a whole connected outside with tubes for arms and legs.

funkless_eckto People Twitter•Which got wrecked worse by Lake Superior? Tom Fitton or the Edmund Fitzgerald?11·8 days ago“Wet”, like “funny”, “beautiful”, “delicious”, “bright”, “hot”, “spicy”, "soft’, “hairy”, “clean”, “malleable” are subjective, context specific, descriptors. You can’t describe how many hairs makes something hairy: three hairs on a bowl of ice cream is hairy, but the opposite on a human head.

Also learning from other humans is part of the human experience and tradition predating agriculture and the wheel. We’ve always taught each other things.
