>Creation is not birth; it is murder. The murder of the impossible in service of the possible.

What a stupid quote. You know why it's stupid. Because murder is creation. It is the creation of death while destroying life.

Just use the word the way it's meant to be used. Don't come up with quotes that sound clever and trick the mind into thinking a statement is profound when really it's just more word trickery.

Ha ha, you are funny:-)

This is the whole point of a (natural) language – the meaning of words is inevitably floating.

Do not nail down a meaning of a word, it’s impossible. Instead, try to imagine there is no word;-)

Battlefield 4 was amazing. It's sad that after all they went through with the community engagement and updates to that game to make it so good, they threw it all away to start from scratch making vibrantly coloured battle royale slop worse than everyone else was already doing it.

I put somewhere over 12k hours into BF4 alone, and I've barely touched the series since. That game had the special sauce that they've failed to capture ever since. An updated remastered Battlefield 4 would perform incredibly well; ironically, my biggest fear for it would be that EA wouldn't be able to help themselves, giving a huge budget to a massive team and completely wrecking it by doing too much.

You are surely joking:-)

12000 hours is 4 years at 8 hours a day.

Instead of carrying a small mouse, the case itself could be a trackpad :D

Apple should withdraw from the EU’s market. Apple’s closed ecosystem is why I use them. Open it up and Apple users are screwed.

Only I am in the EU. So please, stay and find a way! :))

MacOS developers have solved this problem pretty neatly:

Is there a similar trick for non-letter characters ?
