In case anyone else wants to look them up, it’s spelled with a third “i” instead of “e” Parmigiani Fleurier

Ah I found a mistake

(b) Telegraph

(1) Delay the transmission and delivery of telegrams to enemy destinations.

(2) Garble telegrams to enemy destinations so that another telegram will have to be sent or a long distance call will have to be made. Sometimes it will be possible to do this by changing a single letter in a word—for example, changing “minimum” to “maximum,” so that the person receiving the telegram will not know whether “minimum” or “maximum” is meant.

Surely the intended word is “manimum” because it’s one letter from minimum and one letter from maximum.

Haha I hadn’t seen that game before, thanks for that. Gauland is depicted exactly as ridiculous as he should be treated.

Ah interesting, here in Switzerland the rule was if you have a capable device that’s enough. They didn’t have to prove usage.

And now that they also stream online, any computer and smartphone counts. So they recently changed the rules to just charge every household.

I’m a bit confused by the wording. First the title only lists the entity indirectly, then the lead text uses the official name of the Publisher and calls it the Developer… I think in the end the action does actually target Cognosphere, better known as HoYoverse. Not MiHoYo.

The complaint is focused only on Genshin, but the proposed order does not seem to be limited to Genshin, instead it targets HoYoverse’s behaviour in general.

So it seems to me the same rules for selling lootboxes and disclosing chances and offering direct sale without intermediary currency would apply to Zenless Zone Zero and Honkai as well.

I found this in their FAQ:

Currently our armour and equipment is supplied by Marutake Industries, a film and drama company that specialises in recreating samurai era equipment (www.yoroi.co.jp).

Here, I think it’s this set:

Looks like this is the Matsumoto Castle Gun Corps

Laquered armor can look surprisingly shiny

But I think you’re right at least the helmet looks more like actually being plastic

This is just surprising. How did he even learn of him?

I like your funny words, but I’ll just continue to hit him with my Heavy Warped Axe until he falls over.

Weird, it doesn’t seem to reduce the amount of inappropriate art of their characters that much.

Oh yeah I don’t think it would feel great, I’m just saying it’s far enough from the LD50 that the answer to Anon’s question “Do I survive?” would be yes. (Unless he’s a child, or he has some preexisting condition making him more vulnerable to caffeine).

That’s about 11 cups of coffee. Should be okay.

I calculated the LD50 times average adult weight divided by 100mg per cup before, and I think the result was over 100 cups.

UK’s shelved(?) plan

The UK Conservative Party government managed to send 4 people who cooperated to Rwanda before they lost the elections. It only cost them 700 million pounds.

And I have hope the industry will start treating its workers well and its customers fairly.

Looks like we’ll all be disappointed.

It’s a bit akward to respond to that, since I did a Master’s in CompSci, lol. At least I can distance myself from that massive burn a little by saying that I was the akward virgin type and didn’t like the machine learning courses I had to take.

Language studies seem fascinating to me, I always found the stuff my sister was doing in her studies pretty interesting. A friend of hers was even trying to become an interpreter, that sounds so difficult.

I don’t think you can localize to a language. You localize to a region, you translate to a language. Localization goes beyond mere translation, they are different concepts.

I had this issue with a DNS provider doing filtering before!

It was Quad9 normal feed (9.9.9.9) at the time. They still seem to be filtering that domain:

https://digwebinterface.com/?hostnames=files.catbox.moe&type=&ns=resolver&useresolver=9.9.9.9&nameservers=

to contrast, here is the correct response from the Quad9 unfiltered feed (9.9.9.10)

https://digwebinterface.com/?hostnames=files.catbox.moe&type=&ns=resolver&useresolver=9.9.9.10&nameservers=

Either you can change your DNS server to one that resolves the name, or you can make a local hostfile entry, add the following to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts on Windows or to /etc/hosts on Linux or macOS.

108.181.20.35 files.catbox.moe

But if they ever change their IP you’d have to update it.

That makes no sense on the face of it.

First of all the ban comes from the legislative, who made a law and the judiciary who decided it applied in this case.

Secondly the executive might ignore their duty to enforce rulings for a while, sure, but that’s not a long term solution, and not a big achievement.

Thirdly even Biden’s executive was not enforcing the ban, apparently fearing the optics. Now we have gone from Biden’s executive not enforcing the ban to Trump’s executive not enforcing the ban. So there was no effective change.

Tiktok is just doing some political maneuvers here. They were the ones denying access for the last 24h for the optics. Not out of respect for the court’s decision.

It’s a dead fork, there’s nothing there.

Damn I hadn’t checked in a long time. Only 18th among cryptocurrencies by market cap now.
