That might be good. With text to speech getting as good as it's getting, it's probably getting in the realistic territory, too.

I'd create an actual god with morals of absolute good that rules over humans with an iron fist. Political debates? There's an objective answer and the god knows it. Do something wrong? Get warned. Do something very wrong? It's brainwash time.

If it consoles you, I can explain the reason for that one.

They both come from the verb restaurer (to restore). Restaurant being the present participle in this case. In French, "ant" is equivalent to the English suffix "ing".

And restaurateur is "one who restores".

I don't understand

I meant English dialects.

Convenience store employees are unlikely to see it that way lol.

I dunno if it's the weirdest but "pronunciation" is pretty weird.

Why is it "pronUnciation" but "pronOUnce"?

Is this universal or are there places where they pronounce it closer to its spelling?

In case you're curious, the drinking age in Quebec is, in fact, 18.

I like to imagine that it's not jars of peanut butter. Just raw peanut butter, sloshing around when it's warm.

The depth of the stupidity of that is incredible to me.

You even get invaded by NPCs with "forbidden words" in their names. Checking whether you own game violates your criteria should be sanity check number one.

Invaded by Recusant Tanith's Knight! -> works, it's an NPC

Invaded by Recusant Dark K***ht Richter! -> Ugh.

And since those people keep their names like that, presumably they can't even tell that their name is being ruined by the game. An extra layer of stupidity.

At least with stupid chat moderation, you can see your messages, so you know how your messages are being ruined and you can adapt to it.

Looks like you're closer to the truth than I am.

 

I realized I couldn't comment on anything this morning. I tried clearing the app's data and logging back in to no avail.

But then I disabled my NordVPN connection and everything went back to working.

Is this expected behaviour?

 

I just bought it, and after a pop-up that says "Enjoy the ad-free version" or something, I was immediately brought back to my feed with an ad on it.

I get why it happened, and in my case it was just a funny moment that prompted me to restart the app, but a non-tech-savvy person might find it disturbing and waste your time with a support request.
