The set of all integers is not larger than the set of all odd integers.
The set of all real numbers, on the other hand, is.

He only wanted to create languages, for fun... but he wanted to do it properly, so he needed full cultural backgrounds for his languages, including epic poetic sagas written in said languages... and to do that properly he needed a whole history of the world said languages and cultures had developed in... so the maniac built that. And then he wrote a children's book set in that world, for his kids, as one does.
The question is how long that mindset will survive once Gaben leaves. Or dies.
We need to upload him into a GabenOS of sorts. To preserve the Valve mindset, and also for science.
Some neurotoxin and mass murder would be a small price to pay.

Activision Blizzard was already about as anti-consumer as possible, so in this particular case at worst nothing will change, at best Microsoft might actually clean house and there might be some improvements for the consumers...
extremely rare rocks
Silicon is the second most common element in the Earth's crust... 90% of all rocks are some form of silicate...
Grammatical gender ≠ biological gender ≠ gender identity. 🤷♂️
It's easier to understand when you look at English history and realize that English is essentially three different languages (old Saxon, Norse, and Norman) badly put together (a great example of this being meats having different names than the animals they come from, since the people farming said animals spoke Saxon, but the people eating them spoke Norman), with plenty of Latin, Greek, French, and other languages sprinkled on top, all written with a limited alphabet that's incapable of properly reflecting the pronunciation of those languages' words.
It doesn't help, though ,that at some point the English alphabet got simplified with things like ō becoming things like oo, without taking into account that things like oo were already being used to represent different sounds, or that at one point over a period of a few decades in the middle ages for some reason all English speakers seemed to decide to randomly switch around the pronunciation of all their vowels without changing how they wrote them (!?), or that, while all languages borrow words from others, unlike most others English for some reason doesn't bother to adapt their orthography or grammar (a French or Catalan speaker will have no problem understanding why façade is written like that and pronounced fassade instead of fackade, for instance, but I'm sure most English speakers won't be so lucky, especially if they write it facade... and then you've got things like fiancé, or the plural of radius being radii, and so on)... and you end up with the oos in book, blood, door, and boot all being pronounced differently... and, for some reason (probably the borrowing one), the one in brooch being pronounced a particular fifth different way... 🤷♂️
Bit inaccurate, isn't it..? No such thing as Greek gods and Roman gods... “Roman” gods are just your plain old Greek gods with fake beards, speaking Latin in a Greek accent, and wearing their togas in the Roman style... Should have used Greco -Roman gods for one door and something else (Egyptian, Babylonian, Norse... take your pick) for the other...
I got glasses. That definitely changed the way I saw things. Everything suddenly became more focused.
I'm fairly certain most of them are trumpers. They're far right 4chan trolls roleplaying as what they think leftists sound like (and they're really not very good at it), possibly for laughs, possibly to make leftists sound bad, probably both. And some of them are Chinese and / or Russian shill bots.
Had to do x km/day on the static bike, because fat.
Got no time for that.
Old static bike, with mechanical revolution counter.
Unscrew spinning cable that feeds from the bike into the counter.
MacGyver Lego contraption, with motor, with a pointy bit that fits where the cable would go.
Motor goes brrr, do required km in seconds, plug cable back in, rinse and repeat;, parents never find out (I "exercised" while they were working).
Still fat. 😞
