licensing issues

I understand that the buyer doesn’t lose the de facto ability to install the game from a local copy of the installer, but is it possible to lose the de jure right to install the game in that way due to licensing issues on GOG’s end? I’m not saying it is, I’m just curious.

Must have been the wind.

The difficulty of restoring to life someone who is already alive is why such high-level magic is required.

In case you’re curious, the one in the picture I posted is in the art nouveau style but the one in the comic looks more like arts-and-crafts.

Note the floral decorations versus the simple geometric shapes.

That’s probably a beautiful slag-glass lampshade she just smashed.

Slag glass is thick. I guess Mr. True’s skull is thicker.

It adds insult to injury, since it shows that they expect that some people will want to apply those filters, but then they don’t care enough to make the filters work. They just waste even more of my time by creating the false impression that they have made a tool that does what I want.

Once when my sister and I were teenagers, she was hogging the computer and so I just picked up the chair with her in it to move her out of my way. As I walked past, her friend (whom I hadn’t touched) used her bite to make an attack of opportunity against me. It wasn’t gentle - there was no blood but there were tooth-marks.

I had mixed feelings afterwards. On the one hand, it hurt. On the other hand, a girl touched me. With her mouth. I had never been kissed at that point but being bitten was close…

(I didn’t end up marrying her.)

Also a d6 bite is nonsense. The average commoner has 4 hp and 10 strength, so one commoner would be able to kill another commoner with a single bite 50% of the time. I’m not saying a human bite can’t be lethal, but it’s not “stabbed with a shortsword” lethal. Meanwhile, even a d4 bite from a level 1, 16-str barbarian is already invariably lethal to a commoner.

(Yeah, I know, HP isn’t supposed to be realistic, etc. I just hate fun.)

I used to live somewhere with a lot of snow and someone did this with a jacket and a glove. I can confirm that I quietly freaked out when I saw an arm poking out of a big heap of snow.

It wasn’t very funny at the time.

Less documentation means more job security.

My issue with this is that it works well with sample code but not as well with real-world situations where maintaining a state is important. What if rider.preferences was expensive to calculate?

Note that this code will ignore a rider’s preferences if it finds a lower-rated driver before a higher-rated driver.

With that said, I often work on applications where even small improvements in performance are valuable, and that is far from universal in software development. (Generally developer time is much more expensive than CPU time.) I use C++ so I can read this like pseudocode but I’m not familiar with language features that might address my concerns.

Is this ich_eil?

The “wear a loincloth before growing 30 feet tall” direction?

Historical swords aren’t spiky for a reason

Yeah but people in ancient times also liked cool-looking but impractical “ceremonial” weapons. They didn’t go to war wielding them, but neither do modern people who think they look cool…

I think if you’re just Huge and you’re grappling a Gargantuan dragon, you’re going to look like a dog humping his leg. Which may be what OP wants to do, but still…

If the guy with the bow isn’t bringing the DPS then what is he even bringing?

I think the general population always knew that there was a transparent substance all around them which had to keep going in and out of their lungs or they would die - the “breath of life” from the Bible. I mean, even an uneducated peasant in ancient times could blow bubbles underwater and see that there was something coming out of his mouth.

No, that means we have transcended the petty limitations of biological sexuality. We are like gods.

Isn’t that what blocking usually does on other platforms? I don’t use Twitter but if I block someone (for example, on Lemmy) then I expect that I won’t have to see anything that person writes. I don’t expect that that person won’t see anything I write, because that’s a silly thing to expect about something I deliberately make available to the entire internet.
