Yeah

From my experience, killing a process from task manager does free up any file locks held by the process. However, I wouldn’t consider it being graceful, any in-app cleanup is lost this way.

Bold of you to assume we had hotel money when I was 12

I believe Tom Scott had a video on gif vs jif with good arguments for both. His argument boiled down to what association a person makes when first introduced to the word.
Examples included words like gift (where you say g) and gin (where you say j).

I don’t think there is a correct answer, only an answer. Depending on criteria chosen I can make an argument for either pronunciation.

This, but also I just use my native language punctuation rules and hope for the best.

You can keep your prescriptive linguistic nazism. I’ll enjoy my descriptive freedom.

In all seriousness, prescriptive linguistics have a limit in a sense that language is formed by usage and that’s inherently a “descriptive” process.
It is possible to prescribe language when you’re in a majority of users, but after some critical mass of people there is nothing you can do. Even when they’re technically wrong.

Apparently the creator of the format argued for jif. But then again the g stands for graphics.

Honestly this whole argument just shows to me that english is way too inconsistent with it’s spelling vs pronunciation. Which is maddening coming from a language where letters correspond one to one to sounds you make.

To defend myself, I’m not a native speaker and we only have a single word for both conceps. So to me these are synonyms because my language doesn’t differentiate between the two.

Even after looking up some definitions they pretty synonymous to me.

Oof… My language doesn’t differentiate between types of envy, we have one word. So I cannot even translate this.

That’s how language works. You could say that a similar thing happened to the suffix -core. Where originally it was ment to be used with one word – a certain musical genre. Now, however, I can append it to anything and it means just a general esthetic.

As for rougelike, it no longer means a game that’s like Rouge. It means a game where you losing means starting over, where playing more doesn’t necessarily mean the game gets easier due to accumulated XP, wealth, gear or whatevet other mechanic.

After how the Withcher was butchered, I’d like to see less adaptations.

Even after noticing the difference they all look the same to me. Same bust, same hips.

For a minute I was sitting there and thinking: “They’re all the same, what kind of choice is that.”. But then I saw that some of them have gloves.

Nah, my keyboard has too many buttons as is

The new animated Spider-man movies were awesome, fucking loved it. Also Deadpool still seems to keep up the quality when comparing the first to. The boys also rock, I just hope the show doesn’t drag on too long. I’d say superhero media still has good stuff, it’s just way more saturatred, so good stuff has to stand out somehow.

Hmm… I’ve stopped watching Marvel after the endgame, I just felt oversaturated with superhero stories. Never recovered.

I’ve never really liked Star wars. I was exposed to it at an age where all I cared was cool action sequences and the prequels did it better. Tried watching the new ones and they were just boring.

Pixar seems to be doing fine? The second inside out was fine. I mean it’s more of the same as the first one, but it’s a good kids movie. Not sure about their other stuff, but I don’t recall anything particularly bad.
