I think all the seals and sea lions are Caniformia, which makes sense because they're basically big water dogs

opaque basin
lusty jungle
#

sea lions are apprently sea bears ...

opaque basin
#

Sea bears-cousins

lusty jungle
#

๐Ÿ˜ƒ This was very educational

fresh osprey
#

I mean, bears and canines are distant relatives

#

Bears are actually closer related to seals than dogs

#

This is a much more accurately formatted tree

I have... some questions, about people romantic taste, sometimes.
I just finished a book, and by curiosity I go check the reviews. You see, at one point in the book, two antagonistes kiss. (They hate each other, one is sexually attracted and is disgusted by this, bullied the other for years, the other have been bullied for years, killed his friend, and right now is holding the first with a knife on the throat. She kiss him because she realised his desire/repulsion for her, and play on his disgust, etc. All in all, it's a sick scene.)

**Review: ** This passage was the most romantic scene I've ever read!!

#

I have * Questions *

lusty jungle
#

raises eyebrow.

#

It is my understand that there is a subgroup of people who enjoy contemplating unlikely individual having relationships even though there is little to indicate that is actually happening

#

Boaters I think they are called

opaque basin
#

They are still antagonists at the end of the book

#

It's YA, I get it that they are placed so to develop a relation in the next ones, but this scene, in context? I can't call that romantic

lusty jungle
#

How do you define romantic

#

People sometimes use it euphemism for sexual

#

I, personally, would not descbibe based on what you described as "romantic"

opaque basin
#

I did not understand your last sentence. But I would define romantic as things that go in the "Love" category. Sexuals things can be romantic, but not automatically

lusty jungle
#

The fragment of text you posted is not romantic to me

opaque basin
#

Got it, thanks for the rephrasing ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

lusty jungle
#

I think some people find unresolved lizard brain sexual tension to be inherently romantic regardless of anything else going on.

opaque basin
#

I guess. I admit finding that very strange.

young frigate
#

"their love could move mountains" yeah but are they like even friends

lusty jungle
#

Considering things like twilight, I do not think some people finding it romantic is very strange.

young frigate
#

abusive relationships are super romantic dontcha know

opaque basin
#

I mean, Twilight have at least the declaration of love. Like, it was honest "Yep I hate you too"

young frigate
#

popular media has Problems

opaque basin
#

They litteraly said "I hate you and that's why" a paragraph ago!

#

I don't fault the book, the book say "Yep thay hate each other and this is a sick move". It was a reader that said "Most romantic ever!"

young frigate
#

consumers of popular media also have Problems

opaque basin
#

I accept that answer

versed pebble
#

I think the notion of love in Twilght is the LEAST of it's issues to be fair

lusty jungle
#

Reminder: 50shades started out twilight fanfic

young frigate
#

it gives fanfiction a bad name tbh

opaque basin
#

(The book end on one of the antagonists saying to the other "Oh, you wanted that result? Well fuck you, that's the result, I'm gonna do everything to be a problem to you" btw. It's an honesty I appreciate)

versed pebble
#

a crap book wih a good ending is still a crap book

opaque basin
#

But it's not a crap book? Why would you say that?

lusty jungle
#

There is acommon adage "From hatred to love is one just one step"

young frigate
#

so many fans out there pour their hearts into writing some of the most honestly engaging stories I've ever read and then people see the word "fanfiction" and the first thing that usually pops to mind is... that literary abomination.

#

it's so saddening.

lusty jungle
#

So when you see someone talking about strong emotions, combines with lizard brain sexual tension attraction.. people kinda connect the dots

versed pebble
#

some of the best star wars and star trek books have been fanfics, soem have even gotten their authors jobs

#

hell, look at Seth MacFarlane

#

his entire career started in star trek fanfiction

young frigate
#

I'd prefer not to

lusty jungle
#

I mean, as I said, I didn't find that specific scene romantig, and not knowing anything else about the book just solely based on your description I expect that "love" of some sort will make its way into picture somehow later in the series.

opaque basin
#

Why would you insult my book that you don't even know the tittle?! Lone?!!

versed pebble
#

well disregarding him would be a mistake, he's been trying to point out issues in hollywood for years

#

plenty of others go that way inay, not just yours

#

i was also referring to twilight and others

opaque basin
#

You litteraly say it's a crap book

versed pebble
#

whats yours about?

#

no inay, i meant in general

#

I willopenly piss people off and say the same about the bible

#

now THATS a vocal minority that get uppity for pissing on their fave book

lusty jungle
#

Because to them it is not a literary work, it is not even same

opaque basin
#

(Xenon > I don't doubt it, but given how it work know, I think it will evolve with "forced to work together and learning to understand/appreciate each other". At least, I think it will evolve in this somewhat direction)

versed pebble
#

agreed

lusty jungle
#

Likes and dislikes are rather subjective.

versed pebble
#

some like robes, some don't for instance

opaque basin
#

For the book, I don't want to say the title as I've said some things that can be understood as plot points and I don't want to spoil

#

But it was appreciable. Not the best book I read, but a good book. Everyone have done bad stuff and is called out on it

versed pebble
#

did you spoiler your own book? nicely done

opaque basin
#

Not my book, the one I just read nounouille

versed pebble
#

ok, then you've lost me Inay, one minute we're talking twilight and 50 shades, the next yours... i dunno anymore

lusty jungle
#

Inay doesn't want to give title of the book so people who are consider reading it won't be spoiled but what we talked about

versed pebble
#

well are they spoilers or not then?

lusty jungle
#

Inay is reading a book that is neither 50shades nor twilight. We are discussing a reaction of sone of the reader to the book plot point/ending.

versed pebble
#

I'm so behind on reading though it's not funny

lusty jungle
#

Since ending was revealed if Inay also names the title it will be spoil

good goy

opaque basin
#

I just finished to read a book, by curiosity I was looking at what other people having read the book wrote on it. Someone (other reader) was calling a scene "super romantic" when it was a maybe sexual tension but really not romantic, mostly hatred scene, and I had Questions.

#

The answer was "Readers of popular medias have Problems"

It was an old thing from the 90 or early 2000, with a bad quality clip. It's at night, in a city. Not good music, a bit stupid, but catchy, that kinda talked about sex? Or having fun in the room all night. Lot of repetition in the refrain

Tfw trolls expect us to know they're trolling.... That is an example of the logical fallacy which is termed Poe's Law. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe's_law

Poe's law is an adage of Internet culture stating that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, it is impossible to create a parody of extreme views so obviously exaggerated that it cannot be mistaken by some readers or viewers as a sin...

the damn incompetent school administrators in Texas in the early 90s absolutely refused to learn any different way of dealing with neurodivergent children

opaque basin
#

See Rhennthyl, that's part of the problem in my opinion

unreal bluff

I wasn't "special needs" enough to be put in the special ed classes, and I tested with an IQ of 140+, so they were like "ooo..... kay..... she's CLEARLY doing this on purpose. we better discipline it out of her"

"hmm we can't legally administer corporal punishment ourselves but we can summon one of her parents to the school to do it FOR us. that's BRILLIANT!"

#

I don't really understand your notation system of A, B, and co either, but as the french one is a bit shitty too, I wouldn't tell.

versed pebble
#

i was happily average

unreal bluff
#

A is the highest, F is the lowest.

#

A, B, C, D, F. Skips E for some reason.

spice goblet
#

i'd probs be in between like.. Average and Dumbass on that bar tbh

unreal bluff
#

Or sometimes we just use percentage.

tulip bronze
#

basically A = 90%+, B=80%+ ... etc

opaque basin
#

I've heard like even C is bad?

unreal bluff
#

C is average. Literally average

spice goblet
#

C is 70%

tulip bronze
#

C = 70%, supposed to be average

unreal bluff
#

It is a passing grade in many cases, but in certain highly skilled college programs, you need a B (80%) or higher to pass

spice goblet
#

which is pretty bad but it's eh. you can still pass in most USA schools with 70%

unreal bluff
#

Things like medical school, because "average" gets patients killed.

versed pebble
#

didn't they recently change the grading again?

#

I'm dreading seeing CV's this year

unreal bluff
#

They could have. I graduated college in 2010 and haven't been back.

spice goblet
#

used to be that a D (60%) was passable

opaque basin
#

In France, we're noted on 20. Under 10 is bad. 10 is.. not good, but okay. More than 15 is great. The problem is that the notation is a bit subjective, and I know of teachers that refuse to give more than like.. 17 "Because perfection doesn't exist, so you can't have 17/18/19/20"

unreal bluff
#

For a lot of tests in the US, that's purely a percentage of the answers you get right

#

Especially on a test where it's multiple choice or true/false

versed pebble
#

I'm actually discalculate, i was really chuffed with my D in Maths

unreal bluff
#

So thankfully there's nothing subjective about it. Subjectivity always makes grading harder.

opaque basin
#

We don't really have tests like that. Where you choose one or two answers in those that you can

versed pebble
#

got C's in everything else, English was A/B

unreal bluff
#

I wish I could apologise to all my math teachers from high school and college

spice goblet
#

same. except, in my case it'd be all the teachers i've ever had.

opaque basin
#

It's all "you have that question, write your answer in your words"

unreal bluff
#

I learned more math doing my job than I ever did

#

Ah, Inay, those are "essay questions" in the US

#

and everyone hates them

opaque basin
#

Yes, that word

unreal bluff
#

because it hurts your hand to write all that out and the teachers hate trying to read the handwriting XD

opaque basin
#

Except every test is essay questions

tulip bronze
#

yeah, essay questions aren't really a thing except for history and english classes

#

at least at the high school level

unreal bluff
#

Right, I don't think that essay questions would be very helpful in most math classes. Unless it's something like "Explain how to find the derivative of this equation"

versed pebble
#

I dunno what it's like now, been over twenty years since I finished school

opaque basin
#

From memory, as it's been some years since I had any math lessons, you write your calcul.

unreal bluff
#

yes, but you still have to have the correct answer at the end

opaque basin
#

"I have this equation to do
So you do that
And then that"

unreal bluff
#

If you show all the work and then every answer is wrong, you're still getting marked wrong.

#

They do take points off most of the time if you don't show your work, though.

opaque basin
#

Yeah, the math-based class can have the 20/20 notation, they're not as subjective.

#

But I followed the litteray parcours so I did not

unreal bluff
#

My elder brother hated that because he did most of it in his head, and generally got the right answer. So his thought was "if I get it right, why do you care how I work it out?"

spice goblet
#

i hate it when the teachers don't give the highest grade because "perfection doesn't exist" I GOT ALL THE ANSWERS RIGHT, DIDN'T I

unreal bluff
#

Well like what if the question is something like

#

"Give a general timeline of Ancient Rome"

#

And my answer is "500 BC: founding. 0: republic. AD 500: Byzantine"

spice goblet
#

i don't see how an answer to that is subjective tho

unreal bluff
#

I might have the numbers a little weird

tulip bronze
#

eh, founding is probably earlier, and 0 is more like republic -> empire, and byzantium was closer to 350-400 or so

unreal bluff
#

Yeah, it's been a while

tulip bronze
#

early medieval runs from 300-1000 or so

unreal bluff
#

These were just numbers one of my history teachers had us try to remember as a general idea

#

Since Rome lasted about 1000 years in total and was roughly equally divided into republic and empire, and Byzantium carried on after Rome fell

#

And some scientific stuff, there is nothing subjective about it

spice goblet
#

i can understand why they don't give full marks when they're grading an opinionated answer but... if the opinion was a scientific theory that had valid conclusions and evidence, then it should be given 100% imo

unreal bluff
#

Yeah

opaque basin
#

Like, uh.. When you get.. 16 years old? You enter in "Lycรฉe", which is three years (Seconde (2th), Premiรจre (1th) and Terminale (Last?)) Well, if you didn't choose a professionnal parcours but let's stay on that.
Well. Seconde is a general formation, and then in Premiรจre, you have to choose a specialty.
L -> Litterary. Focus on litterature, language, philosophy.
S -> Scientific. Focus on Math, Chemiology, biology/geology/co (Science of Earth we call it), Physic
ES -> Economic Social. I don't remember the exact cursus but yeah, eco.

#

Ah, I think France must not do the Gen Ed thing like America does.

#

Gen Ed?

tulip bronze
#

france is probably closer to the british system than the american system

unreal bluff
#

General Education

versed pebble
#

very much so

unreal bluff
#

The first 12 years of schooling (technically 13 years) you don't pick any kind of specialisation. After kindergarten and grade 1 โ€“ grade 12, you go on to college

opaque basin
#

Before Lycรฉe there's "Collรจge", which is general.

spice goblet
#

Adhara means math, english (literature), social studies (history), and science. i think.

versed pebble
#

but then the EU influence is still there (actually education is one thing EU took advice from us on)

opaque basin
#

Lycรฉe is 16-18 years old, and then Superior Study (University)

unreal bluff
#

In college you're expected to pick a major, but in order to graduate, they make you take at least a few classes in almost every area

#

"credits"

versed pebble
#

thats Higher Education (college or 6th form) here Inay

unreal bluff
#

Like, I don't remember what the exact numbers were since it's been almost 8 years but

#

my computer sciences degree is so old, I learned how to network on 386's

#

we got excited when one class was fully upgraded to 486 dx75's ๐Ÿ˜„

unreal bluff
#

For an example, my degree in Geology, let's say the university required me to have 48 "credits" in Geology-related classes. But it also required about 16 "credits" of foreign language and 16 "credits" of a basic math and non-geology science (chemistry or physics)

opaque basin
#

Kindergarden -> 16 years old : General
16 -> 18 : Choose a cursus (Except you can't choose your classes)
18 -> ? : Go do stuff. University, Private school, etc. University have a credit system.

#

Flying toasters?

tulip bronze
#

In the US, kindergarten -> 5th grade = primary education
5th grade -> 12th grade = secondary
so you leave the general education system at 18, instead of 16

unreal bluff
#

Anyway, one of the assistants in a geology class I took had gotten his basic degree in Argentina and was now working on a higher degree (doctorate or similar) at my university

#

Caveat, rhennthyl

#

It's only compulsory until age 16

tulip bronze
#

basically, 16-18 doesn't exist in the us

opaque basin
#

You need to give me the age

unreal bluff
#

So it's possible to end high school at age 16 (grade 10)

opaque basin
#

Because I have no idea what 5th grade is

unreal bluff
#

Age is 5 + grade number.

tulip bronze
#

like 11 or 12 for 5th

#

18 for 12th

versed pebble
#

they use those numbers in UK now too

unreal bluff
#

In general, though there's a little margin because of different birthdays through the year

**Lycรฉe: **
Seconde (Second): 15/16 years old
Premiรจre (First): 16/17 years old

How about we extradite Logan Paul to Japan for sentencing

#

Do they still use corporal punishment, like Singapore?

How about we don't endorse tortures?

also just so we are clear on this PDP's behaviour is NOT how a "normal" swede would behave

versed pebble

uh huh ๐Ÿ˜›

sly garnet
#

he is a national embarasment

unreal bluff
#

Okay, instead of torture

#

How about we teach him Japanese so he can talk to all the families of suicide victims in Aokigahara

#

If that doesn't make him feel like utter shit, he's a psychopath and needs to be locked up for the good of society, like a serial killer

though I prefer 24-hour time because I'm such a weeaboo I've been using Japanese time format for years

#

lol

#

my macs and iDevices are all set to show 24-hour time but I don't know how to get Win10 to show it

opaque basin
#

I find the 24h more practical, tho' we use the 12/12 sometimes in day-to-day life, by precising "of the morning/afternoon/evening/night"

#

Took me years to remember if am was the morning or afternoon. I'm no good with time

sly garnet
#

huh sounds like me

I only remember time based around work and my show schedule

I even have six cloxks ont eh wall for different time zones

I don't know, I've never heard of this person (which is not really surprise becasue i can count "famous" youtuber i persoannly know of on one hand)

#

But now his name been in the news including international news, and .. was there even an actual dead person? Why Japans has dead people in a forest where tourist can go and look for them? WTH is wrong with that country

#

And yes, 24h and Centigrade for me

#

Nothing to with Japans though, just what makes sense

Aokigahara (้’ๆœจใƒถๅŽŸ), also known as the Sea of Trees (ๆจนๆตท, Jukai), is a forest on the northwestern flank of Japan's Mount Fuji thriving on 30 square kilometres (12 sq mi) of hardened lava laid down by the last major eruption of Mount Fuji...

I wonder if forests of staves on wandering island is inspired by that now

I've been to Mount Fuji, I was told not to hike the forest, especially solo... the horror stories fromt eh region have lead to a lot of horror films in Japan

Is there anything I can do to get out of this?

#

I exited Morrowind and this happened

#

Itโ€™s happened once or twice before and I couldnโ€™t do anything except power off and restart with the power button but I hate doing that since itโ€™s bad for the hardware.

#

Already tried alt-tab, ctrl-tab, Windows-tab, Windows-D, and control-alt-delete.

CAD didn't work?

unreal bluff

Modded

#

Ctrl-alt-delete didnโ€™t work, Alt-F4 didnโ€™t work

try ctr shift esc

sly garnet

looks like the black screen issue is experienced by the overhaul mod

unreal bluff
#

Ctr-shift-esc didnโ€™t help

#

Ffff

sly garnet

most topics about black screen on exit relates to morrowind overhaul mod

#

hmm

#

desktop or laptop?

#

if on pc there is a topic suggesting a display driver reset by using "Win key+Ctrl+Shift+B"

unreal bluff

I just held down the power button until it shut down ~_~

#

windows problems suck

sly garnet
#

do you have that morrowind overhaul mod?

unreal bluff
#

MGSO yes

sly garnet
#

some topics i saw was generally related to that one

#

hmm theres one topic about running dual screens causing it

unreal bluff
#

I definitely don't have a dual screen lol

sly garnet
#

ok then we can ditch that part as a cause

#

some people bypass that issue by tabbing out and (in taskmanager) force closing morrowind

unreal bluff
#

Couldn't alt-tab to anything, couldn't ctrl-alt-delete

#

Couldn't windows-D to go to desktop

#

couldn't alt-F4

sly garnet
#

ok next silly question are you certain you have the newest version of mgso?

unreal bluff
#

Someone in one of the Morrowind Discords says it may be a problem with either sounds, or Animated Containers

#

and Animated Containers is a mod I can live without so I'll try disabling it lol

#

hmm

#

i found a "patch" for it not sure if its needed

unreal bluff
#

"No it doesn't And MW has issues exiting if a sound is being played."

sly garnet
#

another person suggests running the game in borderless windowed mode

I usually run mine in windowed fullscreen

It's easier to tab in and out than actual fullscreen

I miss having cats

Omg kitty get off the Internet

Also I canโ€™t generally alt-tab out of Morrowind anyway because it messes up the distant land rendering

Cats are funny that way I guess. Panicking and the first thing to do is bite the first thing you see xD I had another cat, we got them both at the same time. While she (the orange one I posted) is very gentle and sweet, the male cat we had was quite.. the little devil.

I loved him a lot, he was sweet when he wanted to be. But he has also given me many a scratch and bite.
