Yeah, that’s terrible color choice (I’m assuming, anyway, since Pete and sanders are presumably meant to be different colors)

Same for Canada in certain cases. Generally considered trustworthy or certified.

They’re definitely defined differently between some countries. Japanese cup sizes are different to US ones

I don’t use Facebook but was searching to see if anyone had uploaded a photo I no longer had a copy of from high school. It’s only been 20-something years, but the number of obituaries I ran across was surprising. We’re all in our early 40s from a small school and the percentage who died seemed high. A couple in war, but medical issues, drugs, and most of all, car crashed.

To generalize the answer a bit, if for no other goal, than make the goal to move to a country that better aligns with your beliefs and that you feel rewards you properly for your work. Make incremental steps to achieving that (what exactly the list looks like depends upon the person’s current state and where they want to go) and make marking each one off a goal and motivation.

That I’m an atheist, probably. Living on the opposite side of the world is a close second.

Because of decisions that Blizzard under Kotick made, both in terms of products but also how they treated their customers, employees, and fans, I haven’t given them a cent of my money nor playtime. Maybe someday I’ll be convinced to come back to them. Bethesda’s basically there as well for Fallout76 leading up to its release and after. Take2 and Gearbox as well.

I grew up with and around them but they’re generally not a thing here in Japan. I’m trying to compost all my organics and such anyway and most things can go into compost.

If you’ve never used Eclipse, which I assume it was referencing, it does feel old, clunky, and ugly out-of-the-box (to me at least). I tried to use IntelliJ wherever possible, but a previous company had a project that really didn’t like to run from it but would with a very specific setup in Eclipse (I don’t recall any details now more than 10 years later).

There is a fair bit of boilerplate and bloat.

I don’t remember UI stuff being so bad, but most of what I worked with was old Swing/AWT stuff. I did have to use JavaFX (I think it was?) once and remember something about it being frustrating, but it was for some existing thing I had to modify.

I don’t mind Java so much, but it’s certainly not my favorite language.

I don’t know how one gets a nullPointer when doing a hello world, though. I’m guessing this is embellishment or mashing together something later with their initial printing of hello since I think you’d come up with some other error in that process to getting something to print before nullPointer.

It was literally in the last couple of weeks that I first came across this. I thought it just meant ‘a person living in a country in which isn’t their home country’ regardless of origin, etc. The only thing I thought of it is that it wasn’t necessarily permanent whereas immigrant to me had permanence. It’s wild that, to me, it seems to have come out of nowhere.

it’s generally harder to fax to a wrong number, have that actually hit a fax machine, and have it print than to accidentally email the wrong person or something. There are things that could be implemented into certain systems to only send to certain addresses, etc., but that information also exists in multiple places that can be accessed as well. For a fax, the message exists on the sender’s side (physical if any, machine memory possibly), receiver’s side (same), and briefly on the wire. This is opposed to hard drive, cloud, etc. where it is always vulnerable.

Does making a list of all games not on any list count as a game? Also, what happens since that game is now on a list making the original list incorrect?

My actual answer would probably be the old SSI games on Amiga specifically for Death Knights of Krynn or similar, though I don’t think they hold up super well (it’s 1st ed D&D specifically in Dragonlance and adapted to PCs of the time).

That’s a very average daikon at best. Random fact: daikon 大根 big + root

I watch regular tv so little, it mostly doesn’t happen. We used to DVR a show, but it’s been off the air for a while now (or my settings broke when I moved), and fast-forwarded through them. Now, it’s generally only very rarely watching the news and I suppose I let them play.

When I worked there, I had to refund a few people coming from Missouri and Texas who did not expect what they got (and somehow were not concerned at the smell when they walked in to sit down).

Some Greek guy living on Ohio, more accurately (used to work there). EDIT – should’ve scrolled down; someone else beat me to the punch.

The meat and flavors should be #1

I would argue the chiles should be #1, though the protein/umami source at #2 works fine.

I accidentally added a bunch once having thought I was grabbing my oregano spice bottle (they’re identical in shape, size, and color). I refused to throw it out and expected to hate it but, even though it was a lot to my eyes, it was good and wife agreed. That said, we both also like Cincy-style chili.

I had never heard of raisin, but looking at Cookpad… sure enough. I don’t think I’ve ever had it.

A lot of traditionalists might argue tomatoes shouldn’t be in there, but I fully agree – I’ve always joked that it’s an American curry.
