Good to know!
Good to know!
Good to know, thanks for the feedback!
Is this just a Mount and Blade: Banner Lord ripoff? Kinda sounds that way?
Not in the slightest. I feel the same way.
Naw, it’s actually one Kinda Gallon; a Kinda Gallon of course referring to the average of the masses of a gallon of water, a gallon of beer, and a gallon of whiskey.
All, of course based on how many kerned 1s and 0s (alternatingly) you could fit printed in 12pt Times New Roman font within the thing’s length.
Also, you need to alternate rounding your error (i.e. quarter rounds down, but hotdog rounds up, etc)
Better yet, just use “cooz” as the “common unit”
Then it’s proportioned following fluid ounce measurements from there. e.g. “coc” (computer cup) is 16 coozes.
This is how I feel every time I see an overpowered “prototype” weapon in a video game that works better than the standard version.
You’re right, none need to go…
…but most people are too tech illiterate to even know there’s an option outside windows. Hell, I dated a girl who though windows was the operating system on apple devices (she used the term windows and operating system interchangeably)
Or pro numbers, depending on how you look at it.
So other commenters have opinions that I think are rational, but the part that I think is key that they’re missing: Tenant Unions.
I have some (in my opinion) tyrannical yet lazy land lords/property managers at my current apt, and have attempted to form a tenant union. Apparently no one agrees with my level of disgust at our treatment, so I’ve kind of wiffed at the effort.
Which is to say that it takes real work, but it can be done and there are resources for you, but that’s the first step: don’t go alone.
By the power granted to me by no one in particular:
I’ll allow it.
I know Lemmy is supposed to be a “post-karma” ecosystem, but I’m happy to provide the additional upvotes and apparent activity.
Wow, yeah def a typo there. Thanks for catching that for me.
While not the newest content, it recently caused me to find and finally watch the classics Boyz in the Hood and Training Day, and this weekend I intend to watch Vice. It was also because of Netflix that I first found the new Puss in Boots movie, Blue-Eye Samurai, and Delicious in Dungeon (I generally loathe anime so those last two are fairly significant).
I think Inside Job and Narcos are Netflix only content? I thoroghly enjoyed both of those (and totally understand why people hate them for canceling Inside Job). My wife enjoyed/enjoys (she’s doing a full rewatch ATM) of Orange is the New Black. The two of us also just finished binging Kim’s Convenience.
They also just added some other big name content that were (I think?) Exclusive content on other platforms - specifically thinking Dune, Whiplash, and Joker.
Between discovery and availability, Netflix adds value to my life in my opinion.
100% respect for people who disagree and have contrary opinions and/or are outraged at their handling of exclusive content (ngl, I’m not happy with them canceling Inside Job). But it’s good enough for me to keep around - that, and my wife is super NOT technically inclined, and I’ve yet to find a solution outside of a standard streaming deal (read as: anything involving sailing the high seas) that meshes with her willingness to work with it.
Edit: Spelling is hard.
This is more feel than empirical data, but Netflix feels like they’ve gotten markedly better over the last 2-3 months.
I get the subscription as part of a membership on some other things, but would not have paid for the service the way it’s gone over the last ~2 years. That said after seeing the recent improvements, if my access to Netflix was cut off tomorrow, I’d probably shell out for the lowest non-ad tier of service.
However, mad respect for the people out there keeping the P2P/torrenting communities alive.
Edit: spelling errors
A boost? I’m not familiar with what that is. That’s not a Lemmy thing is it?
Had just clicked away from this post when I saw you comment. I need you to know that I came back just to ensure I upvoted your post (or whatever we call those here).
Make it and then sell it to my wife to give to me for a gag gift next Christmas.
Her budget for such a thing would probably be ~$100 if you need a target price point.
Medieval setting plus the similar sounds of “Bannerlord” and “Manor Lord”.
I realize that was a total mistake to assumed that now.
