This was my first Yakuza game and can confirm the last paragraph!

I actually thought the rest of them would be turn-based too, which is part of the draw for me.

Yeah, I've experienced that as well. A summer party is often nicer than a winter party too.

Depending on the country you might get some collision with midsummer celebrations though

Yeah, I don't disagree. And if you hit something small or relatively insignificant but common, that's all you need

You do sometimes have to worry about that weird g without the leg, though. But it's normal to them, so they don't guestion it. :^)

Yeah, I'd count that credibility as a real benefit from helping with bugs.

As far as xz scenarios go though, the AI slop seems to be a really bad strategy.

Hanlon's razor seems to work well here. I wouldn't be surprised if it were a mix of people who want some real or imagined benefit from bug reports without doing or understanding the work, and people who just think LLM output is gospel—a gospel that must be spread.

Nothing to be ashamed about! There's lots of stuff around the world that some people love but the majority shy away from. All the rest of us can ask is that you enjoy it responsibly and don't bother other people with the smell. :)

No, there really is talk of tariffs several places to neutralise the price advantage that the Chinese subsidies result in. The Chinese want to promote their domestic auto industries, but so does any other country with an auto industry.

Some Norwegian dialects as well call them jordepli.

(Some apparently go one step further and just call them apples, with regular apples getting the name sweet apples. Same kind of reasoning as when they call fermented milk just "milk" and unfermented milk "sweetmilk".)

There are some more ways, usually involving fermentation. Us arctic types know some methods. But I get the impression rakfisk, lutefisk, hákarl, surströmming and kiviak would have caught on as exports by now if they were actually something humans in general were interested in eating, rather than the descendants of very specific kinds of desperate people.

Batteries seem to work fine in rural Norway. If you live somewhere warmer and/or with a bigger population or population density than Norway, you should be fine.
