themeatbridge , in I don't understand the question.

See, “with” could mean two different things. Am I fucking the condor? Or is the condor just present while I fuck someone else, and maybe helping?

But the “without” option strongly suggests the latter. Having sex without a condor means it isn’t there in the room to assist. There’s no way to interpret that as an alternative to having sex with a condor.

@Infynis@midwest.social avatar

I couldn’t even comprehend the idea of sex without a condor

Buddahriffic ,

Another interpretation is to have sex (with your partner) nearby a condor having sex (with their partner). If that’s what they are asking about, I would advise against it, because birds are pretty quick at sex and you don’t want to be distracted with having your own sex when two condors get hungry after having theirs. They’d probably even eat you all romantic-like and share both you and your partner Lady and the Tramp style.

Though for the “having sex without a condor”, it could just mean having sex with anything other than a condor. Which I would also advise.

I’ve played King’s Quest V, so I’m something of an expert on condors. My general advice is “Prefer to do everything without a condor.” Even if your best friend is an owl, they don’t gaf.

King’s Quest V

Wouldn’t it be amazing if Sierra On-Line still existed as its own company? Roberta Williams hasn’t made a game since 1999 when King’s Quest: Mask of Eternity flopped and she quit.

Buddahriffic ,

I’m just glad she lived in a time when a couple of people who had no prior experience with video games could just say, “Let’s make a game” and do it.

Though apparently it was the new corporate ownership of Sierra that frustrated her (though it could have been directly linked with the flopping of the game).

And apparently she was a part of a 3d remake of colossal cave adventure that was released in Jan 2023.

Peppycito ,

Suddenly having a base with 12 is good? I bet you split hours into fractions too.

/joke

dojan ,
@dojan@lemmy.world avatar

Solution could be to learn what AM and PM means. Ante meridiem (before midday) and post meridiem (after midday).

Or use 24h time. Then you can omit the midday factor altogether.

ahto ,

Well, the definitions aren’t really all that helpful. 12pm is neither before nor after midday, while 12am is exactly 12 hours before and after midday.

dojan ,
@dojan@lemmy.world avatar

Okay if somehow one can’t figure out that night comes after day, then one can hopefully count and know that 12 comes after 1. 1AM is in the middle of the night so 11 hours later, 12AM would be noon. 12AM obviously doesn’t come before 1AM, thus midnight is 12PM, because midnight is when one day rolls over to the next and you get morning (or before midday) again.

ahto ,

Except the most widespread definition is the other way around: 12am is midnight and 12pm is noon. As that source argues, 12:01 during the day is clearly after noon, so it must be pm.

In the end my point stands: You can argue both ways and it is confusing.

Localhorst86 ,

I think it would be weird going from 12am (ante meridiem = before noon) to 12:01pm (post meridiem = after noon), therefore 12pm must come right before 12:01pm, so 12pm is noon.

BirdyBoogleBop ,

Crazy thing is I can’t tell if you explained it incorrectly on purpose to show how confusing it is, or if you did it accidentally.

Poem_for_your_sprog ,

12am…12 hours…after midnight??

LordOfTheChia ,

Easy way to think about it is that 12 is actually the 0th hour.

0 AM and 0 PM make more sense.

I actually enjoyed Barbie more. Both good movies though.

Diprount_Tomato ,
@Diprount_Tomato@lemmy.world avatar

I didn’t. Barbie was a nice time watching a movie that didn’t even seem to take itself seriously so it allows surreal and fun moments.

But Oppenheimer was just a masterpiece

Ryan213 ,
@Ryan213@lemmy.world avatar

To each their own!

funkless_eck ,

I strongly disagree. Both were middling and forgettable. In a year or so most people will struggle to recall anything about either movie.

Something_Complex ,

cuz maybe you are not smart enough to understand Oppenheimer.

But I guess some people are just simple.

Here I’ll translate, bomb go bombom humanity goes die die. Unstoppable process , no stop.

Simple?

funkless_eck ,

it’s not about that at all.

my criticisms in brief:

  • creating a post-post-modern work but centering the drama around the pre-modern harmartia in a character
  • the absolute break neck speed of narrative in an incredibly long work, without intermission is very draining and not enjoyable
  • the absence of charisma from the lead character coupled with the inexplicable attraction and support of everyone around him to him
  • "who’s story was it?" there were so many conflicting POVs, and about half a dozen endings
  • the surrealism wasn’t earned or justified
  • the entire thing is about the possible human cost of such decisions but the only victim we see is imaginary
  • most of the dialog is essentially exposition of scientific or legal terms
  • although what happens - post hoc - was interesting. the actual experience of watching it unfold was just watching a bunch of people bicker about their jobs
Something_Complex ,

XD well I’ll make it simpler, we are all dead men walking. In a society without patience I understand what you mean.

But 3 hours to build up to one sentence is something that I’ve never seen benfore in any other movie.

Considering the sentence, well nah this movie was something else.

You can expres you complaints however you want. But I never saw it as boring at any point…

volvoxvsmarla ,

Honestly man, have you never heard of atom bombs and nuclear power before that movie? You make it sound like this movie is enlightening humanity about the dangers of nuclear weapons and revealing some kind of secrets that haven’t been common knowledge for decades.

Or to use your degrading language that you seem to like to make us dumb dumbs understand: small thing goes boing, that bad, we deady-dead, just as granny said.

bighatchester ,

I loved Oppenheimer because I love biopics. Didn’t bother with Barbie because it seemed not my style.

partial_accumen , (edited )

Didn’t bother with Barbie because it seemed not my style.

What I assumed the movie would be about being a Barbie movie isn’t my style either. However, the Barbie movie was quite a bit more than I expected. I rather liked the subtle feminist messaging underneath the obvious message. The movie also didn’t take itself too seriously on what could be considered very delicate topics. I’d recommend it even for non-typical Barbie doll audience.

MargotRobbie ,
@MargotRobbie@lemmy.world avatar

While the feminist message was not meant to be subtle, there are plenty of subtle messages that people still haven’t figured out yet. At it’s core, Barbie is about identity and existence.

It’s not that deep, but it is a bit more complex than at first glance.

The food code should probably just be amended. It pretty generically says that you can’t have “nonnutritive” stuff inside of it, unless that stuff is safe to consume. That’s a pretty reasonable thing, but it should probably be tweaked for nonnutritive stuff that is easy to spot and less likely to be mistaken for food.
