ddickinson: Well I think I better call it a night, another hard day ahead of me tomorrow. I will leave you all to your word games. :-)

I hope you have a good evening, and hopefully something nice will come up for you when the sale updates.

Goodnight!

j0ekerr: Japanese is a strangely contradictary language (I'd say schizophrenic even). You see it's severely lacking in colourful pet names for people you don't particularly like. However it has about a dozen different ways to say "you" all of them indicating subtle differences in familiarity, age and gender (as well as half a dozen forms of "I" but I diggress). The thing is, that using the wrong form of "you" is not simply a mistake in etiquette, depending on the situation it can double as a detailed description of your mother's bedroom habits comparing them to those of a monkey in heat, with just one single pronoun.

20 minutes left.
I used to work with a lot of Japanese OEMs, boy oh boy do you have to be careful not to offend.
And once offended they never, ever forget.

As near as I can tell you can't. :-(

EndreWhiteMane: I dated one too, for several years. Learned a number of 'innocent terms' that would get the crap knocked out of you where I live. :-)
Ah, cultural differences gotta love them. I've always found fascinating how the word c*nt can be used to address a dear old friend in the pub without anyone batting an eyelid, yet it will instigate a bar brawl accross the pond.

On that note a typical friendly greeting here consists of at least 3 mentions to the ilegitimacy of your ancestry and at least one accusation of sexual deviancy.

Does it make me a bad person, that as I read this I actually constructed one in my head as I went along?

Aside from the fact that they seem physically unable not to add a social suffix to the name of someone they're not boinking. A language lacking different ways of addressing someone else depending of rank baffles them.

I'm not surprised, Japan's main production is passive aggression.

No, it just makes you sociable.
Be aware that you will be answered in kind.

Well, I just got some interesting info.

As it turns out, the internet in my area actually is being upgraded. Color me shocked.
Course, it doesn't get upgraded for roughly five weeks. If I'm still downloading this shit in five weeks, I'm going to be ready to kill myself.
But it's still pretty damn good to get some tiny sliver of better infrastructure this far out in the dust.

EndreWhiteMane: I think you're right, most of the ones I know in English I also know in Spanish. :-)
We tend to poop a lot more. But at least we don't fling it. Most of the time.

That's good news. Hopefully it will happen and not be a load of empty spiel as is frequently the case.

Of course it is - you're downloading your complete library now aren't you? It'll go live the day after you pull your last MB ;)

But seriously, lucky you. Nice to know you'll be pulling your Winter Sale haul in record time!

Well, I'm letting go of a couple of things. I'm exercising patience, self-control, discipline... and experiencing a severe case of... "my backlog is HOW LONG?!!"

Agreed. The presence of people working on this particular road is a good sign, at least.
Even if it doesn't come out until August, it'll still be better in the long run.
This speed is garbage for any kind of heavy bandwidth usage.
