Yes, I remember other Scala

Ah, you're completely right.

If that person had a kid it'd be your third cousin, but since that person is OP's parents' second cousin, they are OP's second cousin once removed.

For example, my great grandfather's sister's grandson was on the USS Thresher when it imploded. What would his relation be to me?

So your first common ancestors are your great great grandparents, so that's third cousin, and they're a generation older than you, so once removed. Third cousin once removed.

On that note, what do you call your grandparent's sibling, vs your great grandparent's sibling, and so on? Again, Google isn't being very helpful here.

Grandparents' siblings are you great aunts/great uncles, additional generations back you add more greats, so great grandparents' siblings are your great great aunt/uncle. After a while people say "twice great" etc

Gundam 0083 has even better tunes. The music and animation of that one slap so hard you almost don't notice the garbage plot lmao

Yeah, mpv is better on Linux. VLC is still my preference for DVDs on the computer though. Super easy.

While I appreciate the reference, most kids probably don't know about the whole Metallica Napster thing.

It's not true currently. Firefox and Chrome trade blows on which is more performance and which uses more/less RAM these days. It varies, but they're quite close.

FYI late 80s is a Millenial. Xennial is like 79-80. Millenials go from 81-96

Adventurous young person, ready to be sent on a quest, is where you got filed in my head.

We did have some DOS games on CD during the Windows 95/98 era, though. Lemmings always ran better if you dropped down to DOS and ran it from there instead of trying to run it through Windows, for instance.

Pronouns, in general. Japanese speakers leave pronouns implicit. Sometimes it's used as the source of sitcom misunderstandings.

Like, you don't have have to say "I want to go to the store" you can instead say, "want to go to store" and if you say it as a question, suddenly it's "[Do you] want to go to the store?"

S7 was the best one yet IMO

I mean, they don't HAVE to, but if they choose not to, the board of directors will push for a change in CSUITE personnel

If the board doesn't maximize profit, the shareholders can sue them, so functionally they do have to.

Am I right to assume you've got a laptop? Otherwise 70C is a terrible temp to hit at idle

Yes, but Rubber was excellent. It's really a problem of creatively bankrupt giant studios pumping out formulaic dreck.

Anyway my go-to response of course is “why how many do most people have” then offer to freshen their drink.

IMO it is worth being proud of the times you realized you were wrong. Most people live unexamined or underexamined lives. Having fewer moments when you realized you were wrong is not even remotely close to having been wrong fewer times. If anything it indicates the opposite: those with fewer wrongness-realizations will continue to be wrong in myriad subtle and humorously obvious ways.

I love this response because it might make the other person realize they have no clue how often they're wrong.

Just because Barbie and Transformers worked doesn't mean every old toy needs a movie

Generally the app is better. Compatible with more container formats, audio formats (surround sound, Dolby digital, etc), and has hardware supported decoding for h265 video in addition to h264.

At least in the case of a Jellyfin server, you can download media locally when you know you'll be without internet

Man, they really missed out, too. That show was amazing!
