The expansion is about the Erdtree and you didn't go with "wood"?

I'm disappointed, Vyre.

Perhaps you didn't uncheck some pre checked boxes?

Yeah they usually have them checked-on by default. If you just mash "Next" all the way through the installation wizard, it's going to install a bunch of that stuff on your computer.

This one didnt ask me for anything. It went straight to install.

It didnt last more than 1 min before i remove them, but still, its not like Adobe would need t resort to such tactics

Unless your localization has different rules that Adobe must play by, you enabled them.
https://get.adobe.com/reader/

Offers to package Adobe Genuine Service and/or McAfee Security Scan Plus with the Adobe reader download, but its not on by default.

I know here you have to uncheck them.

I used to just get it from here, yet apparently they removed it.

Dont need to rush.

Grab a book or an Ipad, go to the throne room, and just take your time.

Just go have your gallbladder removed. Never have that problem again!
Whoa whoa, what? Having your gallbladder removed makes you regular?

The 0 at the end is a little odd because cents tend to only include two digits. But mathematically, they might be using that 0 to ensure you that there's no potential for rounding errors further up the line.

I read that as "One thousand, three hundred, eighty-seven dollars and eighty-eight cents"

Yeah, probably the zero also got me confused too, but it does makes sense to be one thousand.

That would be the price to host an application on Microsoft cloud service per month.

Paying like one thousand would be ok for a month, but paying one million would be like inviable for any project.

it's because they charge fractions of cents per hour, that's pretty rare.

It does happen (gas, for example)

Microsoft cloud pricing even goes into the tenthousandths of a penny.

$4.7539/hour

Yeah, because if you have, say, two transactions at $1.046, it might show up as:
2 * 1.04 = 2.09
...and you'll be like "wtf, math? please?"

Excel spreadsheets are notorious for that. If you've got a bunch of multiplication and division such as for taxes and discounts, a lot of super small numbers get lost in the void, and then nothing adds up or makes sense.

TIL there is a Neo-Aramaic language still used

Yeah, that Aramaic, Jesus spoke Aramaic

I found that interesting. Company I called today lists the languages their receptionists speak.

TIL
Yesterday I was doing some research for my game and came across a definition that I never really thought much of before. I finally discovered that "battery" (as in "Assault and Battery" and "Weapons Battery") stems from the word batter, as in to pummel something repeatedly. I then connected that dot to baseball and its batter and their "bat".

I always knew those definitions, I just never connected them to the root word before now. Talk about feeling stupid lmao

Mando came back today. If you didn't watch Boba Fett, you aren't going to understand anything that is going on. If you did watch Boba Fett, you aren't going to care about anything that is going on. Just focus on Baby Yoda and don't ask questions.

A favourite animator of mine just made a Star Wars thing. I haven't kept up with the franchise since The Last Jedi, so I'm sure I'm missing something, but I still thought this was super funny.
