No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is there a culture/country that doesn't have sarcasm in its language?
8·15 days agoI believe 皮肉 means “skin of the meat”, or in other words, superficial. What’s being said is not necrssarily the intent of the words. Or, in other words, sarcasm.
How about we save some time and just install some sprinklers?

Games@lemmy.world•Resident evil 4 Remake: Capcom replaces Denuvo with Russian DRM Enigma
1·22 days agoGlad you like it! It’s got a lot of humor, and I really like the music. As the other comment said, you can always get the DS version, made before this DRM existed. There are also parts of the game that work better with the dual screen/touch screen setup, as that’s what the game was designed for.

11·22 days agoA shame you haven’t heard of Ghost Trick actually! It’s a fun puzzle game about a guy trying to solve his own murder, as he’s a ghost who’s forgotten who he is. You have to set up rube goldberg machines to prevent other people from dying, that may or may not be related to your death.
Also a shame that it has DRM.
What have you been using? I’ve been on and off with Japanese for a while, was using some Anki decks but was getting frustrated with it. Now for the last while I’ve been using JPDB, which I like, but wish I could customize more. I also wish I could use it offline, because sometimes it lags when I’m hitting an answer, and that gets annoying.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What fictional animal do you think would be the most delicious?
2·25 days agoiirc 999 smells like peanut butter, so it might taste like it too. Eating it might be hard though, I think it’s one of those hard to kill types.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that 49% of americans believe the country is worse off under Trump than under Biden. 32% believe the country is better off. 19% say it's about the same.
1·1 month agoSure, that’s sort of what I said.
People can put whatevet they want on their vehicle, that’s none of my business. That said, I’d be too afraid that having something like this would incentivize some asshole to vandalize my car.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•I am surprised that no one has started selling shell headphones for sleeping.
1·1 month agoThe shells may not have inherently sharp edges, but if they’re big enough to fit over your ears, and weren’t caged in some convoluted way, if you rolled over and broke them, then you might have some sharp problems.

22·1 month agoI can for this example yes, but those were sort of rhetorical questions about how polls like this are presented in general. I suppose the linked article is more clear than the title of this post is. “49% of Americans believe,” No, 49% of people who voted on this NY Times poll believe this. I know, it’s impossible to actually get every American to weigh in on this poll, I’m just saying I don’t like statistics like this because to me they don’t mean anything other than a 1000 or so people feel this way.

125·1 month agoWho conducts these polls? How many people were polled? 100? 1000? I always see “Americans say this” or “People believe that”, but I certainly never voted on any poll, no one I know has. It always makes me feel like the polling base is going to be biased or carefully selected in some way to achieve the desired percentages.
I doubt that lad accepts any unit other than whole.
Do people refer to individual units of lasagna as “slices”? Admittedly I’ve never thought of how to refer to one other than as a plate of lasagna, but I’ve never heard anyone else use slice, like you would a cake.
Unfortunately(?) no, if I was I’d be able to afford a convenient micro sized phone. Or I’d just demand some tech company make it for me.
I haven’t, do you have any specific recommendations? These Xperias seem just as big, if not bigger, than the phone I currently have. And I don’t know if narrower is necessarily the solution to my problem either, I know we live in a 16:9 world, but I kind of just want a square phone.
Seriously, I want a phone that I can hold in one hand, and my thumb can reach the entirety of the screen. My current phone is so bulky and heavy, I can barely reach half the screen with my thumb.







I do this with my dogs sometimes, or rather I pet or rub them around with my feet because it drives them into crazy play mode for some reason.
