  • You’ve already shown a flaw, which is that English inflections do not match other languages. “I will go” in English is not “Je irai” in French but rather some more like “moi, j’irai.” The sound of the voice also wouldn’t make any sense because different dubs will change to fit local stereotypes. In the states they will have someone sound like a redneck but in Germany they might lean into a Bavarian accent for the same effect.

    With the low level of understanding demonstrated in your comment, plus the high level of confidence in your solution, you’re showing exactly why it’s a bad idea. Just pay voice actors and pay them enough that they will actually be of a certain quality instead of bitching that the dime-store VA people aren’t giving you top-tier performances.

    Take the AI and throw it straight in the garbage. We don’t need it and we don’t fucking want it. All it does is cost more money to produce a product that only an ignorant, over-confident corpo thinks is any good.




  • They’ll say “if they’re clever enough to not pay taxes then that’s fine by me!” as billionaires pay less than 1% real tax because they get to write the laws and then they’ll claim that a city bike lane has stolen their tax money.

    They’re stupid as hell. Like, profundly fucking stupid. Conservatives are so pathetic and I’m embarrassed to be considered part of the same species as them.


  • There’s also, I think, the weird fucky option were 75% sorta works because the 25% applies to choosing 50% and 50% applies to choosing 25% which means that as long as you don’t choose 0% you’re good?

    BUT ALSO, none of the question says it’s talking about itself. It could just mean in general, so we can choose 25% on purpose and then glare at whoever made A and D the same.

    They’re technically supposed to be the “cunning” house, and while that attracts all the villains it also has some normal people. Tbough in that same vain I want to see a Khorne Berserker taking a house placement test and getting Griffyndor, ya know? Anyway, all of Slytherin’s nuance seems to have come from the fans, which makes sense because JKR is not exactly capable of that on her own. I feel like people like the world because it’s such a blank canvas, but JKR acts like printing the paper makes her the artist and she’s not even the first to do it.

    I have an attachment because my mom and I read them together as I grew up but I’m totally fine throwing the books in the garbage and keeping the memory. We also read Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, so I can hang onto those, too.




  • It still helps. And they might not travel far but they do travel so it’s good to have a destination.

    The best part is that even if it doesn’t work the entire point is that you aren’t doing extra work. Literally just do nothing and at worst nothing will happen but at best you’ll start seeing more and more improvement, if slowly at first.

    In Montréal all our major parks have washroom facilities and if they for some reason don’t there’s still gunna be a port-o-potty nearby. There should definitely be two near the beach but the point still stands that you can definitely have nice things, or at least something stopping the majority of public urination. And hell, I’m sure that we have issues with them here, too, but it’s a small price to pay to have a civilized city so whatever.

    Longer term the city just needs to adopt any of the myriad studied ways homeless and poverty has been reduced in other places which will also reduce the danger to these things getting broken.








  • Oh no, we won’t be able to afford houses or rent or save for retirement or- hang on just a second…

    Wait, we already can’t do those things, and the last thing I want to do is, once again, validate the existence of people I would prefer to see in little pieces scattered all over the street for all the pain and suffering they’ve caused just to get a little more money on top of their billions.
