I was very excited when they announced GW2. Sadly it is a very different game from the first one, and while I can still enjoy the story, it is not really a game for me.

But I would argue that the rest of the world also uses primarily English online. And just by virtue of being the rest of the world, outnumbers the Americans.

In other words, of all Internet users that use English, the vast majority is likely not American.

Of course I don’t have data to back this up, except anecdotally.

I’m sorry but this is nonsense. I’m in a lot of online communities where everyone uses English, despite it being nearly nobody’s first language. It just happens to be the only language that everyone there knows. Language is no indication of nationality, especially online.

And to be honest, in those places the assumption is usually that everyone is European, which I can imagine is just as annoying for the stray American.

People like your art director are the reason people like my product manager want us to write code to verify QR codes, so that our clients can tell their clients that they forgot the quiet zone and their client’s clients may have trouble reading the code.

Damn that’s a lot of levels of clients.

Why doesn’t anyone ever think COVID was sent by God to give us a reprieve and a chance to get our act together, which we’re now squandering?

With a million dollars you can buy mushrooms, making picking them feel pointless.

Usually you have to lift them straight up, often with another clip to release. You can’t just pull them off in passing - you’d pull down the bike, perhaps fall too, and have nothing to show for it.

Yes, level with the top of the screen, so you’re looking slightly down.

In the graphic the screen is way too.

It’s probably just as important though that the screen is in front of you, so you’re not constantly looking to the same side.

Yesterday I came across my old Icewind Dale box. The manual is 130 pages with tiny print.

I had also put the Forgotten Realms Archive manual in there, which is 368 pages - but to be fair that’s for all 12 games.

Rabbits? Have you not seen Monty Python’s documentary about the beast of Aaaargh?
