It's usually not too hard to approximately convert. Multiply by 1.5 for miles -> km. Multiply by 2.5 for inches -> cm. Divide by 30 for oz - g. That last one is harder, but it's fairly rare to need to talk about weight. Going kg -> lb is just kinda doubling it. When it comes to your own weight and height you just need to learn the new numbers, since they won't change too much.I'm meant to be moving to America from northern England (was meant to be July, but will be January at the earliest). Moving to Austin, Texas - I am not looking forward to the summer.
Should I forsake the metric system now, or will I be able to bluff my way through life?
Somebody said that during the Zelda concerts, Nintendo teased skyward sword HD, can anyone find this footage?
I don't think I've heard or seen it used once in anything I've ever done. Maybe in school as a kid. I'm from Toronto btw
I cant find the one from the last thread, sadly. I just remember seeing a lot of Japanese text.
I never found it :/ But there was alot of big websites reporting on it. Aonuma Teasing makes me think it's going to happen someday!Somebody said that during the Zelda concerts, Nintendo teased skyward sword HD, can anyone find this footage?
Yo you can't just do that to me heart
"He dit que no soc un ós rentadoooor" xD. Same here, watching anime since I was a kid (K3/3XL whatever it was) thanks to the amazing work the Tv3 group did localizing tons of classic anime. I remember them broadcasting Ranma 1/2 during the lunch time, an anime that has lots of explicit erotic content (basically tits twice per episode). What a time to be alive.Sempre recordaré que es diu ós rentador gràcies al Doraemon. L'anime marcant la meva vida ja des de ben petit lol
Holy shit. Do you know if it's for this coming direct?
he could've just meant the footage to be fair
OMG. I'm so pumped! Thanks for sharing!
You're the only person I've seen discuss completing it. Have you got all of the ones you can buy?I missed the A Short Hike convo.
Has anybody gotten all 20 feathers and gotten the acheivement for it yet?
I think my file is bugged because I swesr to god, I got all 20 gold feathers. Even triple checked. Still shows only 19 gotten though.
changing standards is fucking difficult and I feel like that's overlooked by the "lol look at how dumb Americans are" crowd
of course the metric system makes more sense, but that'd be a massive change that our country isn't equipped to undertake. we have the highest covid deaths of any country, it's a socioeconomic disaster, our infrastructure is outdated and falling apart anyway. we've got a lot of shit to fix before we get around to making our measurements prettier
This is the correct take. There are many more pressing issues than our numbers being different from the rest of the world when it comes to temperature and how far apart things are lol.Yeah, when you get into construction, absolutely everything from the lumber mill on is based on inches and feet. It would be a massive undertaking to try to get that entire industry to switch.
Did somebody ask for a TALL GIRL?
No? Discourse had already moved on to metric? Damn it.
Yes. I've gotten all the gold feathers, as far as I can tell by referencing multiple guides.You're the only person I've seen discuss completing it. Have you got all of the ones you can buy?
Outside of revisiting all of them in order, I don't have any other suggestions. Sorry :-(Yes. I've gotten all the gold feathers, as far as I can tell by referencing multiple guides.
Loved it! It has the advantage over actual TED talks of not being 500 fucking years longI'm not a tall boy unfortunately but I at least have fairly broad shoulders and a thicc ass rib cage which may make me seem shorter but I also seem a little less puny?
thank you for coming to my ted talk I guess
I started learning Japanese last year and uhhhhMark Twain:
"Never knew before what eternity was made for. It is to give some of us a chance to learn German."
"In German, a young lady [das Mädchen] has no sex, but a turnip [die Rübe] has."
"[...]a gifted person ought to learn English (barring spelling and pronouncing) in 30 hours, French in 30 days, and German in 30 years."
I own his book "The Awful German Language". It's funny.
The story and the characters are so good. These kinds of emotions were a first for the series!I probably liked Skyward Sword more than most (at least on Era) but it's really one of those games that needs a considerable amount of work even beyond the controls. Knowing Nintendo, I'm not sure they will invest it though.
Aonuma asked the audience if they wanted SS HD, people cheered. That was over 2 years ago.Somebody said that during the Zelda concerts, Nintendo teased skyward sword HD, can anyone find this footage?
Switch lite users will be treated like garbage once again I assume?
I think we can be fairly confident they will not.SS is so good. I hope they shorten the useless tutorial at the start of the game!
I mean it can be weird and objectifying I suppose but in my experience men of good taste like tall womenAm I allowed to say that I like tall women? I'm always afraid that it comes off as weird.
My favorite example of American exceptionalism is asking people where they're from, or where they live. It came up in this thread or the previous OT. You get answers like
"South Germany"
"London"
"Italy"
"Richmond, Virginia"
Most people will give a major geographic area, a whole country, or a major city. Americans will almost always do city-state, as though the whole world should not only be familiar with all 50 states but the cities inside them.
