honestly we probably pronounce it really wrong too anyway so we have no place being so annoyed at it

saw someone horribly mispronounce baten kaitos (sounded like they thought it was japanese and were trying to apply japanese pronuncation to it) in a youtube video and now I'm mildly annoyed but not enough to want to leave a comment on the video

Is there a big list somewhere of what food items expiration dates actually matter on and which ones they don't? because you don't want to be drinking expired milk but if a loaf of bread is past its expiration date and isn't moldy it's probably fine

every time our tv turns on it says in big letters in one corner "DIGITAL TELEVISION" which just seems weird

﴾also look at these fancy ones﴿

⦕what exactly is the point of these parentheses⦖

that may in fact have been the point, too! I don't know a ton about Aztec culture but I wouldn't be too surprised to learn that they gave their foodstuffs a day off

So apparently there was a major Aztec holiday where for a week every eight years they would make tamales with no filling and no spices in order to not overwork the maize

this description (which is from wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamale#Aztecs) makes me think they had a holiday where they just gave the corn a week off

why am I seeing a whole bunch of identical level 44 people standing on top of each other with names consisting of random letters

Consider: regular fireweasel me, but with hyena taurbody

on a positive note: liking the game so far. We might purchase it next month to be able to properly play it

well, we started playing the trial of FFXIV because people seem to think it's really good

One of the first other players we saw had the name "southern ancapistan" and uh, yeah, wow.

birthday present from our mom arrived a few days early! a box set of the Avatar series on blu-ray

I'm kind of amazed to see that even on blu-ray it's seventeen discs

kind of proud of ourselves for getting all that done, it was a surprising amount of work and I'm glad it's done now

it helps to have a single 12-outlet power strip instead of two chained 7-outlet ones, and a couple switches (one HDMI, one component) to allow everything to be hooked up at once

spent like an hour and a half yesterday untangling cables and rearranging things to try to make the tv area a bit cleaner and it looks a lot better now

I'm kind of wondering why they're still made

I'm kind of curious: is there any reason at all that someone might want to get a dedicated sound card for a modern PC?
