I know, but why? Not trying to be a hater but why not just use the native words?

They transliterated it as English: “Great” being written like “Go Ra To” or something similar instead of using the Kanji 大 pronounced as “Dai”. Same with Sword, they wrote it like “Sa Do” or something, instead of 剣 pronounced as “Ken”.

Eyy I just watched Red Ranger, extremely enjoyable for how stupid it is. I bet I’d have loved power rangers if I watched it as a kid

I watched too much of power rangers on TV as a child.
As a result, I don’t find the anime enjoyable.Even though the premise was fun, I just couldn’t tolerate it enough to feel the fun.

When I took a geometry test in eighth grade, I got a point deducted because I wrote ASS instead of SSA (side-side-angle) when calculating angles and side lengths of a triangle. Still got the right answer though

Oh, wonderful, teachers who punish kids for being kids and/or making mistakes.
- Ethan@programming.devEnglish1 year
There’s no difference between SSA and ASS in that context so it’s pointless to punish a student for that

I’m so old and tired, this isn’t even funny anymore. I’ll have to explain to some junior engineer about ASS. Then management will learn about this term “ass”, and use it incorrectly at every possible opportunity. Then when no one can explain ASS, I end up being “the ass guy.”
For some reason, ASS files cause stuttering on my Jellyfin Server living on a NAS

Anyone who understands them is not to be trusted.
It’s even worse than tar.

GNU tar is easy and straight-forward.
It’s also completely incompatible with any other Unix, but then, what difference does it make is nobody can use them?

A more complex but more commonly used program is
rsyncrsync -rav /home/user/Documents /mnt/usbdriveis treated differently thanrsync -rav /home/user/Documents/ /mnt/usbdrivewhich is different thanrsync -rav /home/user/Documents /mnt/usbdrive/which is different thanrsync -rav /home/user/Documents/ /mnt/usbdrive/It’s a great tool for making copies onto drives, even servers. But man you have to double check how each folder path is laid out, otherwise it’ll write the files of one folder to the main drive, unorganized.

Tbh the frequent pain from needing to read it again often happens because it was so hard to write correctly that it misbehaves on some data and you need to adjust it.

The biggest pain in the ass I’ve dealt with was using a directshow lib to implement flash on a new camera we were supporting for a desktop application. Working with a device graph and pins is beyond frustrating. We’re porting functionality to the Web and my dev working on the camera just needed to call capture image to trigger the flash.

You scrolled too far. 😆 Same as me, but I scrolled back up.

Pages are fractional now?
Man, I really gotta get with the times…
- JackbyDev@programming.devEnglish1 year
I’ve had text books that have page numbers in the corner as chapter-number. It’s not unheard of. When I was in JROTC in highschool the cadet field manual had pages like this. I’m sure others did too but I specifically remember that one more because I was there for four years. (Had to be there for riflery team.)
