american cheese is not fake cheese why do people get american cheese confused with the cheese byproducts and processed cheese? there just happens to be processed cheeses that are american cheese style, but they also make those in swiss you folks are very confused about cheese
FormerRei@mobile
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_cheese >American cheese is a type of processed cheese.
FormerRei@mobile
>Today’s American cheese is, by law, required to be manufactured from at least two types of cheese. Because its manufacturing process differs from "unprocessed" natural cheeses,[1] American cheese cannot be legally sold under the name (authentic) "cheese" in the US.

mother fucker hou are so wrong i want to string you up thank good moon is here there js shit like velveta which is fake and the cellophane cheese is usually fake but there is a decent kind of american cheese out there christ

>Even though the term "American cheese" has a legal definition in the United States as a type of pasteurized processed cheese, and is actually something different, products called "cheese product" are by no means identical.
how about we just greentext the whole fucking page

People refer to it as "fake" or "not real" cheese because its processed.

>As a result, some varieties (e.g., "American cheese" and "American processed cheese") bear remarkable similarity to traditional/unprocessed cheeses, while other varieties (e.g., "American cheese food" and "American cheese product") are much more like Velveeta or Cheez Whiz.

>The processed variety of American cheese is sold in three basic packaging varieties: individually-wrapped cheese slices (which are not sliced from a block of cheese, but rather slabs of processed cheese which are formed from a viscous processed cheese which only solidifies between the wrapping medium); small, pre-sliced blocks of 8 to 36 slices; and large blocks meant for use behind deli counters. >the processed variety of american cheese >processed variety >variety

there's also the step down from that even to the cheese flavored products that's what's actually not cheese, and contains no cheese the so-called government cheese man i've had to eat that sometimes and it's nauseating it also doesn't melt when you put it in a skillet

>>586123 Because it's white american which you're just going to say "ITS THE SAME HERHEHGEHGEHGE"
Kirara, M.S.
i was gonna say yikes actually
Anno
>>586120 Probably a well-aged white cheddar. It's good for on crackers, and works on chili even though I prefer orange for that. And it's still cheddar enough for burgers. All around flexible cheese.

If we can just accept that I like non-processed white american cheese I would be content.
FormerRei@mobile
>>586127 There's non processed American cheese? I'm pretty sure its a legal definition.
>>586133 >American cheese is a type of processed cheese. It can be orange, yellow, or white in color, is mild, salty, and faintly sweet in flavor, has a medium-firm consistency, and has a very low melting point.

Although I'm surprised to see kirara and I agree on this one. Cause we disagreed a bit on the what is and isn't chocolate definition discussion.

Hrrrm Maybe I'll make pasta and put cheddar on it.

wew how intrusive are all the dlc and microtransactions?
Kirara, M.S.
imagine if there was a game that had absolutely no dlc or microtransactions it's like that the microtransactions are completely irrelevant and you never see them unless you look for them
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
wow I'd have expected ubi to have a poppup there constantly skins and grind avoidance I hear it was mostly
Kirara, M.S.
that's how Origins was too
Anno
The microtransactions can serve to reduce grind. You can get boosters for experience, drachmae, and the resources you need to upgrade your ship and equipment.
FormerRei@mobile
>>586142 Were that's not it, we were arguing something regarding the legal definition. Like what can and can't legally be sold as chocolate or something.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>586151 that just means they designed the system so that it in the end encourages some to buy into that
>>586155 Grind is a matter of taste. I don't entirely agree that they didn't design the game to be a little grindy. But they do reward you for engaging in the activities of the grind with quests and aesthetic rewards for adventuring off the exact path of the game. I don't find the game grindy but I can recognize the game model here.
i haven't experienced any necessary grinding it's an rpg there are quests that you do that's it
FormerRei@mobile
>>586157 Games that have skill progression that don't involve grinding are weird, at least in the context of RPGs.
Anno
>>586159 Because you're part of the subset that enjoys the questing and exploration in the game. I would say I am too. But I think for the majority of people the side content isn't enough of a pull away from the main quest, which if you are -strictly- following, you'll probably hit challenge walls if you're playing on Normal difficulty or above. I believe Ubisoft is fully conscious of that, and reckons there's enough people within the general populace that will shell out money for the boosters to not do what they'd consider grind, to make the microtransactions worth it.
Which I don't fault Ubisoft on, if people want to pay money to make their life easier, all power to them, it's their money. s
FormerRei@mobile
Oh yeah speaking of RPGs I'm basically on call for wacky D&D hijinks My friend has a dm who is a huge douche so he's going to be texting me and asking for advice on stuff.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
If game has microtransactions it is designed so that it encourages some to buy them simple as shit
FormerRei@mobile
I don't get why people would pay money to buy a game, then pay even more money to play the game less. That defeats the purpose of buying the game in the first place.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I have no issue with mts on free to play or cheap games but a 60€ triple-a game...
Kirara, M.S.
>>586163 so if people with first-hand experience don't believe that's the case, then your theory trumps their experience because it's a Law of the Universe?
>>586163 What if the microtransactions are just an afterthought that's inserted after the game has already been designed
Anno
I could see that being somewhat the case. Maybe not literally an afterthought but it is definitely designed to have the completely valid argument of saying they're completely unnecessary.
Either way there is no drawback to playing on lower difficulties, as far as I can tell, beyond insult to personal pride, which will also help deter the necessity to upgrade things and keep good leveling. There are a lot of options for doing exactly the thing the microtransactions are providing, so it's really just what you choose.
Kirara, M.S.
plus you can actually get the drachmae and xp boosts for free with the ubisoft rewards

I might be a little late for anime tonight but I will be present.
Also I was at my friend's house and we were watching Crunchyroll on his ps4 and got an ad for "stop democrats in Minnesota" I wonder if I should make a thread about it on /a/. Well probably not cause I'd likely get banned for shitposting.

Kirara, M.S.
>Ham has previously blamed multiple factors for the underwhelming performance of the attraction. From local business owners to atheists. But is there a simpler explanation? Is it possible that people don’t want to visit the Ark because it sucks? haha
>Once you're outside the Ark, you can go to a zoo area with zebras and camels and some petting-zoo type animals like donkeys and goats. There are, of course, signs—this time explaining why each animal disproves evolution.

>All people who volunteer or work at the park are required to sign a “statement of faith” which explicitly prohibits them from employment if they’re gay, bi, or a person who has “attempt[ed] to alter [their] gender by surgery or appearance.”

you can discriminate against trans people but not gay or bi people or whatever

the new doctor is pretty good
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
well moffat is out now so...
Kirara, M.S.
yeah but moffat didn't have control over whether the doctor was good or not capaldi was good for example
Koi, MFA
time for mat farming
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>586310 yeah true, but he had really bad writing to deal with
Kirara, M.S.
oh yeah def but my point is that i like the new doctor
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
hopefully she can renew the series but capaldi era sure had pretty much worst writing of the show so far
Kirara, M.S.
kind of like how Baker was an amazing doctor with abysmal writing 7th had the same problem
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I hear moffat also ruined the sherlock show eventually
Kirara, M.S.
yeah, ive heard the same
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
well I will prolly watch the final capaldi season and the special that kills him and then see the shedoctor I had hoped they had done the "gender bendering" earlier and not during these times
FormerRei@mobile
Moffat ruins everything
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
welp that was exorcist a very good classic not really scary, but you can definitely see why it was so scary back in the day the director cut is too long, though, can really see why these scenes were cut as they didn't really serve the story at all
though they did give some more screen time to the two priest characters
>>586321 I like the hood on the jacket. I am envious of that jacket.

are you guys watching index tonight
Anno
Hard to tell. There's a lot of stuff on the list and I'm not sure what Rika likes to get to first yet. Definitely a chance of it, I think both Rika and I are excited about it.
There's also JoJo to watch too.
FormerRei@mobile
Ah fuck New index is this season It's going to be really hard for me to talk about it without spoiling stuff Since the lns covered this season a while ago.
Kirara, M.S.
well, if i'm still around when you guys watch anime, i might join in for index it's hard for me to watch alone, haha or at least it will be until they get to the accelerator stuff
FormerRei@mobile
Well It's not really a spoiler to say that its the world war 3 arc.
Anno
Anime's hard in general for me to watch alone. I probably wouldn't watch nearly as much as I do if I didn't have the nightly watching sessions. Which probably wouldn't be too much of a loss since it would probably reduce down to the best stuff, but still. What's fun is good.
>>586338 Well Rika did say she'd probably be pretty late tonight, so I'unno if you should hold out if you're feeling like going to bed. If we do watch it's a good fit for a first up show too though, so could also get it out of the way quickly.
FormerRei@mobile
>>586338 Accelerator is going to be important in s3. There should be several episodes with him.
Kirara, M.S.
i know, i've read the novels
FormerRei@mobile
>>586342 Have you read the one where he and the US president go shoot a bunch of people together?
>>586345 On /a/ its your fault for not reading the source material.

Err "your" as i the hypothetical person who is watching the anime but didn't read the lns despite having plenty of time to have done so since s2 aired. Or s1 Which was like Almost ten years ago
I've got to head back to the campus library and also try to figure out what I'm supposed to do for my proposal for a research paper. I really don't want to write something on the scope I'm limited to by my course. So I've got until midnight Mon/Tues to put something together, or I dunno. I could still drop out without academic penalty I think.
Kirara, M.S.
I have to go figure out why Fish is breaking up with me tomorrow
You can usually withdraw from a class without penalty for like 10 weeks here What class was this?
Anno
Drop out of the specific class I mean, not my program overall.
Anno
Yeah, I've been keeping abreast of your situation. I hope things go well.
I'm pretty sure the withdrawl without penalty is some time in November here, so I'm near-certain I'd be safe. I'd only get a partial refund though. The class is Advanced Research Methods, which, at least with this professor, uses a particular foci over the whole semester to teach, well, research methods. Except in this case the foci are these issues of WWII-era Canadian comics that are just ... terrible. They're poorly written, the art's inconsistent, they're full of ridiculous shit like disparaging people from Africa or the Japanese. Everything about them is just trash.
On top of that I deliberately avoid any kind of class that explicitly involves WWII history because I'm thoroughly disinterested in learning more about it than I already have, so I'm particularly annoyed at not being able to have that information regarding this class before picking it. Of course any time you have to do an in-depth analysis of something from that time period it's impossible to disentangle it from the whole World War II so I feel roped in to something I really don't want to engage with.
I've tried to disengage from the war material where ever I can but I feel there's a certain inevitability here and that just makes me even more frustrated against it. And it's just hard to get passionate about something I hold so much disinterest or negativity towards.
Yeah, I'd need it to graduate. I'm already ahead a few classes despite being in year one because of my night school classes, so I could "afford" to not take it this semester. But it would be nice to graduate on a slightly faster track than the standard four years, considering how late I've started. And who knows if taking it in any different semester or any -with any different professor would actually be a more enjoyable experience.
I'm even considering just taking my greviances to the professor and seeing if she's aware if it's done differently elsewhere but I really don't want to get lectured on "some times you just have to do things you don't want to do" or "if you'd started on time and not put things off you wouldn't be having such a hard time" since I've already gotten that nonsense from my parents about this.
Kirara, M.S.
I'm falling asleep
>>586503 That sucks I hope you can get an alternative focus or something at least
Good night /moe/

Thanks. Good night and good luck.
