Because of decisions that Blizzard under Kotick made, both in terms of products but also how they treated their customers, employees, and fans, I haven't given them a cent of my money nor playtime. Maybe someday I'll be convinced to come back to them. Bethesda's basically there as well for Fallout76 leading up to its release and after. Take2 and Gearbox as well.

I grew up with and around them but they're generally not a thing here in Japan. I'm trying to compost all my organics and such anyway and most things can go into compost.

If you've never used Eclipse, which I assume it was referencing, it does feel old, clunky, and ugly out-of-the-box (to me at least). I tried to use IntelliJ wherever possible, but a previous company had a project that really didn't like to run from it but would with a very specific setup in Eclipse (I don't recall any details now more than 10 years later).

There is a fair bit of boilerplate and bloat.

I don't remember UI stuff being so bad, but most of what I worked with was old Swing/AWT stuff. I did have to use JavaFX (I think it was?) once and remember something about it being frustrating, but it was for some existing thing I had to modify.

I don't mind Java so much, but it's certainly not my favorite language.

I don't know how one gets a nullPointer when doing a hello world, though. I'm guessing this is embellishment or mashing together something later with their initial printing of hello since I think you'd come up with some other error in that process to getting something to print before nullPointer.

It was literally in the last couple of weeks that I first came across this. I thought it just meant 'a person living in a country in which isn't their home country' regardless of origin, etc. The only thing I thought of it is that it wasn't necessarily permanent whereas immigrant to me had permanence. It's wild that, to me, it seems to have come out of nowhere.

Her stated policy positions and record on various issues would be my best guess. But, yes, 'Trump would be worse' seems true in all cases that I care about at least.

it's generally harder to fax to a wrong number, have that actually hit a fax machine, and have it print than to accidentally email the wrong person or something. There are things that could be implemented into certain systems to only send to certain addresses, etc., but that information also exists in multiple places that can be accessed as well. For a fax, the message exists on the sender's side (physical if any, machine memory possibly), receiver's side (same), and briefly on the wire. This is opposed to hard drive, cloud, etc. where it is always vulnerable.

Does making a list of all games not on any list count as a game? Also, what happens since that game is now on a list making the original list incorrect?

My actual answer would probably be the old SSI games on Amiga specifically for Death Knights of Krynn or similar, though I don't think they hold up super well (it's 1st ed D&D specifically in Dragonlance and adapted to PCs of the time).

That's a very average daikon at best. Random fact: daikon 大根 big + root

Some Greek guy living on Ohio, more accurately (used to work there). EDIT -- should've scrolled down; someone else beat me to the punch.

The meat and flavors should be #1

I would argue the chiles should be #1, though the protein/umami source at #2 works fine.

I have family that are convinced of several of these and any evidence I present is 'fake news' or otherwise handwaved away from not being from their approved sources (and I mean non-affiliated, peer-reviewed papers for stuff as well). It's going to put christianity in some position and take care of the immigration issues, so they believe, and that's what they want.

This guy is known for spouting all kinds of bullshit, apparently. I've lived here for a decade and it's the first I've heard of this level of insanity (though there certainly is no short of misogyny from the fossils and those wont to blame anyone else for their problems).
