Fractions are just funky when dividing. Dividing by 0.5 is the same multiplying by 2.
Your analogy is really close, but backwards is all. If you have a quarter of an apple. In order to get half a whole apple, you need another quarter. Two quarters make a half, so dividing a quarter by 0.5 gives you 2 quarters. Dividing a quarter by 2 gives you 0.5 of the original quarter which is your 1/8th
The majority NOW. I should have specified.
That’s what Americans claim to save face. I’m a Vietnamese American and Asian history tends to suck in other nations. America used that narrative to justify invading another country and then dipping out when it was too hard.
I’m still going to overgeneralize, but here’s the actual history they don’t teach you. (History is much more interesting outside of school).
From the Vietnamese perspective, they initially didn’t want/need American help, but about HALF of Vietnam didn’t want communism. Similar to Korea, it was kinda like North vs South. America knew that Vietnam has potential to be another booming nation so they saw an opportunity to “help” Vietnam for profit and claim they’re fighting communism in the process. America doesn’t just “help” for the sake of good, we’re a nation of profit and greed.
During this war, South Korea’s involvement and then eventual American alliance actually helped South Korea flourish from all this new money they were getting. When Nixon saw that Vietnam was a losing war, he pussied out and ended up moving on to help Korea since that was the next “profitable” nation; even helping in “fighting communism” during the Korean War. Vietnam took a huge L after Nixon pumped and pulled resources so he partially caused the loss, too. Looking back now, America made the “right” call on South Korea as it’s now both rich AND has good US relations.
Most of the Vietnamese population today prefers a less communistic government but not much can be done. Government is just stupid powerful BECAUSE of communism in the first place. Like some long domino effect.
TL:Dr America is a sneaky country and does things that only benefit them. They couldn’t benefit from Vietnam so they moved onto Korea in “I’m done playing with you” style.
As a vietnamese American, my mom always told me stories about the shitty government. Most citizens in Vietnam know the laws are dumb too but can’t protest because the government is too strong now. Just know that EVERYTHING is regulated over there.
Emphasis on him suffering. The algorithm is incentivizing YouTubers to adhere to this meta. GN isn’t trying to mislead us, it’s just how the job is structured.
You living under a rock? Ghost of Tsushima, Spider-Man, Elden Ring, God of War, Doom Eternal, RE8, and Tears of the Kingdom are awesome AAAs of just the past 5 years to name a few.
It’s just that bad games tend to get more publicity cuz the mob likes to shit on them. Tbh, Cyberpunk wasn’t even a terrible game, it just dropped with performance issues that took over a year to mostly fix.
I’ll give you that all recent Ubisoft titles have sucked though.
I see so many ads for malware bytes that it almost looks like malware itself lol. I’m pretty sure they have a lot of money.
Parts are expensive and profit margins are thin. What’s stopping us from buying parts on eBay and reselling those phones for profit? You pretty much end up with the cost of the phone to repair the phone.
Your experience is subjective

You know what, you’ve changed my mind. I could totally see this being a bit more rustic and homey. Just depends on the color combo.
Color corrected to the best of my abilities by eyeball with my phone. It still looks out of place but the original picture taken certainly didn’t help
That’s the exact point lol. These restaurants are trying to feel more “homey” and “rustic” so they can feel more justified when they’re upcharging their mediocre food.
Wife bad. Wife make me feel sad. I escape into my own hobbies because wife bad.
Just do it. I was hesitant as well but now there’s no going back. It’s actually like 5x faster.
I think the problem is that it’s super popular for those who already own a PC and have a huge Steam Library. I got console friends wanting a Steam Deck but ultimately don’t want to buy one because it means rebuying their games.
You’re speaking pretty large for an American for not being a school shooter yourself
But as an American who meditates, that is not the answer lol.
We have a bigger issue with the media trying to make us feel like everything outside is scary first. A lot of fear mongering to keep the scared gun owners to buy and advocate for more until a mentally deranged one goes too far and ruins it for everyone else. The media can now sensationalize that shooting and you get either people buying more guns or people advocating for no guns and neither side wants to hear each other anymore. It’s one big crazy chain reaction loop we’re stuck in and the politicians got the crazies advocating for things that would just make the politicians more money. Sigh.
Yes. There is about 1 volume left to cover and the last 1 hour also covers about as much. Tbh I think it’s worth it for a series like this. I was an AoT hater for the longest time after S2 but now that it’s ending, I think it’s one of the greatest pieces of literature I’ve ever witnessed. The way the story unfolds is unlike anything else I’ve ever witnessed in any form of media.
Manga readers? I’ve known the ending for years now and I want to let Mappa cook. That’s why people are excited.
Blind fanboyism?
