Seriously, it definitely wasn't more efficient to summon the magic maid. That hadn't really been the point, of course, but it remains true.

He was a perfectly normal mobster dressed like it's the thirties (we're going by Gotham standards) until, one day, he, um…
Something something… Corrected on his usage of whom... Something something… Electric eels… Colander with wires used as a hat… Batman gasps...
And that's how it happened.
New Batman villain: The Whomobster.
He's a mobster whose life revolves around adhering to inverse rules for who and whom. The only people he doesn't correct are using who and whom correctly.
His corrections inflict psychic damage, and he could do it with anything, but he's fixated on who and whom.

You're not choosing gender. You're choosing to be way too cold at times, or way too hot at times.
It's been a long time since I've played, so I'm not sure who's worse off. I can't imagine either is comfortable throughout.
By the definition of "what I care about or acknowledge," it's equally valid to not care about what came first, and there can even be good reason to.
Stories can start out shaky—not that I'd know anything about that—and end up full of all sorts of retroactive continuity.
I had the thought that no one is obligated to consider sequels as part of the story they care about. They might be official canon, but personal canon is basically just "this is what I care about or acknowledge."
And that got me thinking about someone only acknowledging stories in the middle 🤔
"I don't acknowledge many of the sequels as canon. I do, however, acknowledge book four as canon, which consequently means I do not consider the first book as canon."
"Wait. The first book? THAT you disregard as canon?"
"Whole lotta retcons in book four! Book one is basically gibberish to me now."
Is who vs whom any more complicated than whether the who or whom is performing the action?
"Whom did you call?" You're calling, so they're whom.
"Who called last night?" They did the calling, so who.
I sometimes hear long "how to know" guidelines, and that makes me question it being that simple.
(Looks up a #Fallout4 things)
Ah. Um... Sorry, Sheffield. I was, like, 100% certain you were "Protected" and would not be in any actual danger during a manually triggered settlement attack.
Good on you for charging into battle against raiders, I suppose.
"He did it!"
"'He'? Who is the antecedent of that he?!"
"...What?"
That moment when you delete a YouTube comment not because you don't stand by it, but because you remember that it's YouTube, and don't consider it worth dealing with random dumbasses.
(Writes "shouldn't we have", pauses)
Remove the contraction, and that's "should we not have", right?
I think this is the first time I've consciously considered a word sliding past one or more words to join another word, because unless I'm missing something, that's what's happening here.
All the things are good. i must have been unclear myself.
The first thing I thought of when I saw your first reply was “do they mean what DBZA does with editing lip flaps?”
I’m saying most official anime releases don’t edit the visuals, not that it can’t be done.
What I am talking about has been a writing challenge, not a technical one.
I am talking about official audio dubs for anime.
The visuals are usually not edited in official releases, so the audio has to be timed to match the original animation.
That is what I’ve been talking about.
You’ve been responding to my posts, but I don’t see one that plainly states “this is what I was talking about.”
I THINK you were referring to editing the visuals, but I’m not entirely sure. I have trouble parsing some of your posts.
I’m *still* not clear on what you’ve been talking about.
It was confusing because I didn't know what you were talking about.
Like talking about blueberry pancakes and getting confused when someone brings up improvements to the manufacturing process of ketchup without any mention of tomatoes.
Fun speed run fact:
In games with unskippable dialogue, people who are optimizing in every way possible will change the language to whichever one has been timed as being the fastest.
Doc Mitchell's initial dialogue in New Vegas can't be skipped, and players save four seconds by playing in Italian.
What I'm talking about has nothing to do with editing and everything to do with languages having different timings when saying the same things. It's why I found the mention of technology so confusing. It's not relevant to the context I intended.
I'm talking about editing audio with no changes at all to the video. I'm not sure if you are or not. If we are both just talking about audio, then I don't know what difference the technology makes.
This is about differences in timing in languages, and how one language can say the same thing faster, or needs more time than, another.
Making the same meaning fit within the same space in different languages inevitably results in instances of awkward timing if only changing the audio.
As such, when I read "there are tools for this even as open source software," it made me wonder "what does that have to do with anything," and I found myself guessing at what was meant by it.
"Editing lip flaps? That's not generally done. What does this mean? What's fixing the timing issue?"
I'm not certain, but I don't think we're talking about the same thing.
I'm talking about the localized translation needing to fit within the same space as the original Japanese. I'm not talking about technical difficulty in editing. I'm talking about differences in syllables, word count, etc.
Yes, though mostly for Local Leader and Caps Collector as I have a tendency to have a companion.
I'm not sure what you're claiming is different that would take away the issue of timing.
The appeal of not using VATS is less "I don't like VATS" and more "look at all these perks and SPECIAL points I no longer care about." It's like getting bonus perks by virtue of there being fewer I care about.
This build appeals to me in part because its one of the few ways I enjoy playing without VATS.
The difference this particular weapon makes is it uses fusion cores while being powerful enough to not use them that quickly.
The build's greatest weakness, running out of ammo? Not a concern.
