Mine just “forgets” that i have songs downloaded over time until i go online, so my playlist will effectively gradually shrink. And then as soon as i go online they’re instantly available and downloaded again…

Cave Johnson is that you?

He’s offering to take part in the bread and circuses, as a friend, implying that he’s suffering with bilbo

What in the everloving fuck do you Americans do to your pizzas that makes them be so greasy that you can wipe it off???

I mean no, they arose from their hiding in the depths of Angmar is definitely how I’d interpret that

I will not stand for this Pippin slander!

He resisted the will of Sauron himself for a bit, and even when hurt by him he told him a little as possible. Pippin very intentionally told Sauron nothing of their quest or of Frodo and Sam.

He’s a fool, but a fairly intelligent, strong-willed and kind fool.

Good meme though.

The cry of Morgoth in that hour was the greatest and most dreadful that was ever heard in the northern world; the mountains shook, and the earth trembled, and rocks were riven asunder. Deep in the forgotten places that cry was heard. Far beneath the ruined halls of Angband, in vaults to which the Valar in the haste of their assault had not descended, Balrogs lurked still, awaiting ever the return of their Lord; and now swiftly they arose, and passing over Hithlum they came to Lammoth as a tempest of fire. With their whips of flame they smote asunder the webs of Ungoliant, and she quailed, and turned to flight, belching black vapours to cover her.

It doesn’t actually say anything about how fast they got there. “In that hour” simply means “at that time” here. On the other hand, they travelled “as a tempest of fire”, which certainly implies magic and speed. Either way, with such inherently magical creatures as the Balrogs, saying that they cannot travel very quickly without flying seems somewhat naive.

Good meme though, always appreciate something that makes me go back to the scriptures.

I don’t think so, at least not meaningfully. Obviously it has a different meaning: tel- is seemingly a prefix that means “finish, end, be last”, and orn means tree (can also be seen in his other name, Celeborn). So the meaningful pieces would be tel and orn, which means that the p might be less pronounced than an English person would normally do it, but it doesn’t make much of a difference.

Tl;dr: he’s just named Teleporno ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Plenty of others complained, the difference was just that they could swallow the pill and keep playing. Linux players were just fucked.

She looks uncannily similar to the professor who plays host to Voldemort in Harry Potter 1

Anyone who read the article care to enlighten the rest of us who refuse to click on such garbage clickbait?

The factory i work at occasionally still uses them for delivering tests to the lab, pretty cool to hear them swish around in the pipes.

And a sledgehammer if the thumbnail is anything to go by

It did? I’ve never heard of this

I wonder if that’s where the mass effect devs got the inspiration for the mass relay design

yea i don’t have a problem with people with issues having non-harmful outlets for their urges, even though i might consider those outlets distasteful.

Yea that’s been the main issue, not enough resources spent to get the immigrants to actually learn swedish and truly become part of society. Instead you get whole areas filled with people who don’t know the language and distrust the government and civil systems, which breeds a whole host of problems.

Yea the Chinese are definitely the only ones who’ve thought of heaven granting the right to rule.

Yeah no thanks, a PC that can only run one program at a time? that’s just a console but worse lol. almost entirely useless as a computer.

I thought they would pull on the hairs but fair enough, can’t argue with experience
