Look at those tiny little paws and rolled up tail! :3


First of all, that is absolutely adorable.

Secondly, doesn't that make it not extinct? Just endangered?

Well yes, turns out that it wasn't extinct, unless they pulled some seriously messed up trick defying everything we know about time and space and biology and common sense. But it was thought to be extinct for a while. So as far as human public classification goes, it was extinct and then turned back to endangered. Which only makes it even cuter!!

Unfortunately we weren't allowed to see them in the zoo. Their house was closed with a sign saying "Fighting extinction".


Awww well hopefully their species is rescued and grows!

If I'm citing an asian name that contains 3 names. and all the other authors are listed first name first. do I consider the first or last name the last name for the purpose of the citation?

Just be consistent, so if the other names go First Last, go First Middle Last.
If they go Last, First then go Last, First Middle.

This works whether the "middle" name is actually their middle name or technically a second first-name.

If it's a competitor, make sure to get it wrong, so that the search engines wont identify it correctly and it won't count towards his h-index.

nothing like that. im just doing a college assignment and thought that someone on TL might have an idea. plus I was curious. I hope this didn't cross over into the asking for homework that's prohibited.

Why is so few streaming starcraft? Shitton of pro and popular players play it and everything is going well in general. Can't have twitch viewers if not many streamers stream.
Pro players should go Lowko style or TLO style where he just plays fucking beautifully unique style and does smart little things.

Pretty sure it has. Although I don't feel like starting to dig through the pages, It'd really surprise me if no one has ever asked if this question has been asked before in this thread.

Referring to another question of course, whatever that may have been, but the question will still have a formulation very similar, if not identical to, "has this question been asked before?". It should still count right?

Trying to decide if I should go "ded gaem", or say that smart players have already left sc2.

But more seriously, I don't think there are enough viewers to give even a popular streamer a meaningful income per hour.

What's the difference between tortilla, burrito, tacos and all those things? And especially, when I bought a package of the soft round flat breads that I roll my things into, why did it say "burrito tortillas" on it? Isn't it like saying CD disc?

the difference is scale and amount of bread.

Tacos are small, bite sized servings, more akin to toast with meat than to a burrito.
Burritos are dense wraps more akin to a calzone than a tortilla.
etc...

Essentially--big ones are for burritos, small ones are for tacos, and midsized ones are for tostadas.

You could technincally make a taco using burrito shells and it would look as silly as making a PB&J with pizza crust instead of sandwhich bread.

Saying viewership is on the decline does not mean daed gaem it means passionless viewers.

Daed Game suggest players have no passion, and so they don't stream.
No Viewers suggests viewers have no passion, and so players can't stream.

Its about who you want to blame.

Also, tacos are (usually) open at one end while burritos are fully wrapped.

Do the words 'noob' and 'newb' have diferent meanings to most people? It seems that 'newb' has gone extinct while 'noob' is used for both meanings.

Newb is the angry 5 year old spelling of Noob.
Its gone extinct because it makes you look like an idiot (only slightly more so then using Noob tho)
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

That really cuts deep, man. Do you often judge people based on the colloquial terms they use during their leisure time?

I always took it as newb = Bad player who is new to the game, and noob = bad player.
