HIV: It’s free real estate

I watched the longer footage, later on the video it pan to the right and reveal there’s another shooter on the balcony/pedestrian bridge, and then the camera-man pan back and he’s sitting down, so he might’ve been shot by the shooter.

“money can’t buy happiness” used to be a saying for rich people so to make them more grounded and stop their endless chasing of wealth since they already have it, but over time it became a saying targeted at working and middle class to stop chasing financial stability altogether. It’s a tool now used by the wealthy so they doesn’t get out-competed.

That’s why it’s odd to call it a dialect, yet by definition it is, mostly because it’s spoken by the similar ethnic group that originated from the same or neighbouring region, and by that definition mandarin is a dialect as well, just that china decided to make it a common language of the chinese. Like 粤语, it’s originated from guan dong but in china it’s a dialect, yet in british era hong kong it’s their common language. The same thing for 闽南语 in taiwan, which originated from fu jian.

But even though it’s different, if you know multiple dialect you can actually roughly understand the dialect you don’t know. Well, roughly.

like 海闊天空 (song) is my favorite thing to listen to in Cantonese)

RIP Beyond.

I think maybe because english already standardised when the world decided to learn it, so it’s mostly accent and less about dialect. Still impressive nonetheless.

On another note, chinese dialect sounds so different that it might as well be another language, then China decided to standardise the language into “common language”(mandarin) and basically attempt to eliminate dialect.

So i guess this impressive result is because colonialism.

Dude just nuked them with atomic drop

Airbnb used to be about renting your room for short stay, nowadays it’s renting the whole unit/house, so the price reflect that. Then there’s also cleaning fee that usually around 30%/40% of the total price, which then they demand you to clean the place before leaving. They also jack up the price after covid. It might worth it if you have a big group, but for 1 or 2 persons hotel is still the best option.

How bout China 中国

Can’t seems to find it now, but there’s a lot of attempt on this idea though, so we might actually saw a different game. I remember seeing it in early or mid 2010s.

I think it might be a result of a gamejam? I can’t remember but i remember how unique that sound, but i can’t find that one i saw though. I googled a bit and it seems a lot of indie dev attempt on this idea.

If first person shooter is when you shoot the second guy, and 3rd person shooter is when you look at the shooter shooting the second guy, then 2nd person shooter would be you getting shot by the first guy. So uhh maybe you control the first guy but see through the second guy.

Actually i remember some short indie game based on this.

It’s a sunbear, it’s one of those that will flee when they saw human, and only attack when provoked. If it got this bad then the trainer probably push too hard. Report mentioned no one got hurt other than the trainer’s ego.

Love Hollow, that silly smile is so cute

…Maybe i should just give up on preventing my cats from destroying my sofa, seeing yours is almost on its way of destruction.

Legit, there’s no child abuse in US.

forcefully dissolved.

In acid i hope.

Well for one they probably like kiwi and kakapo more, one are endangered and another one is critically endangered. And this applied to cat that roam outside and have no dependency on human.

Ironically if anything, house cat kill for fun and will kill everything that move and smaller than them, so kinda like nazi. And i said that as a dad of 4 cats. Cats are cute, and i wish it doesn’t come to this, but other animal deserve a chance to live too.

Or double tap, just to be sure.

I think the practice stick because back then Windows doesn’t have build in antivirus. But then even with it, lots of malware/ransomware still get through.
