You’re describing culture, not language. You can absolutely say what you mean in English without beating around the bush. Start being more direct with people and watch your life improve.
The words “funnily” “reasonableness” and “impactful”.
Even though they’re apparently all real words, they are clunky and make one sound unintelligent when there are more elegant synonyms available like “comically/humorously” “reason” (no idea why it needs the “-ness” to be a noun when it already is) and “significant”.
Disney is raking its customers over the coals with a 75% price hike for their annual subscription (originally $80.) People wonder why piracy is on the rise.Multiple commenters are saying I’m off base about the 75% price increase. My payment less than a year ago was $79.99. Here’s the proof.
Literally the dumbest and most worthless gen z slang. It doesn’t save any time whatsoever. Why would you need slang for a very specific thing like lying?
It’s commonly accepted by most people that don’t watch My Little Pony, that the grown ass men that do watch MLP, and always hyper obsess over it, may be subtly indicating that they are into other children’s things.

Shirley even says “we just gonna ignore this hate crime right here?” like it’s 100% meant to be a meta joke about blackface. But, even comedic irony isn’t allowed in this context with streaming services. Disney cut like 5 episodes of Sunny from streaming because Dee in brownface and Mac in blackface.
Brazil’s telecoms regulator Anatel claims that during an operation last week, it successfully blocked around 80% of pirate ‘TV boxes’ in the country. Estimates from early 2023 suggest that seven million were active in Brazil. The operation, claimed to be the most significant ever carried out, arrives just weeks after...

do you find it difficult to get into games? I’ve got Epic Games and Steam Games libraries chock-full of classic top-tier games along with many other newer games like Stray or 2077, and a bunch of indie titles. I just can’t be bothered to download and install them, much less try to get into the characters and storylines. Used...
I’ve been through a bunch of life phases and gaming has basically been a part of all of them. Definitely, over time, the thrill of a new game is a bit more subdued than when you were a kid because you have done it so many times, and I’ll admit, if a game doesn’t immediately grab me, I probably will bounce off it. I have a ton of games that I still play from gen 2-6 if I need to feel nostalgic. But I realized that I have trouble committing to games that feel too samey as the most recent ones I’ve played. If I play a JRPG, I have to follow that up with a platformer, followed by an indie game, followed by a Sony 3rd person shooter. Fighting games are also great pallet cleansers. Sounds like you’re depressed, and you should really spend time in nature and remember what and how you found joy in the past with gaming.
Using FF with UBO, absolutely no problems. “May detect”? I’m pretty sure they either can or can’t. They’re not going to detect some FF with UBO and not others. The only thing that may affect whether or not you’re detected is if you’re using a VPN or other encryption.
I love how Game Of Thrones ended like 3 years ago and the internet is still processing our collective trauma from how objectively terrible season 8 was.
