I've never understood the appeal of MMORPGs

"The Navajo language was famously used as a code by US forces in World War Two. In the Pacific battles, Japanese codebreakers cracked other allied dialects and coded language. They could never decipher Navajo.

Navajo is a verb-centred language. Even adjectives have no direct translation into Navajo; descriptions are given through verbs. It’s a prefix-heavy language, with 25 kinds of pronominal prefixes which can be stacked onto one another. This forms incredibly long phrases like chidí naaʼnaʼí beeʼeldǫǫhtsoh bikááʼ dah naaznilígíí which means “army tank.”"

LOL

And yet, still looks more understandable than Dutch

Dutch is one of the easiest languages to learn!

Just difficult to pronounce .

Dutch is kindergarten level pronunciation compared to Danish

[General]

And Danish is easy compared to Chinese?
Seriously though, they are smart people, why they just didn't invent a better language?

Yes, they are notoriously sloppy with pronouncing their own language, much worse than we are, even. They were pretty much the only country that didn't need Shibboleths during WW2 .

Other than that, the Danish and Dutch are very similar to us, they just have a sillier accent .

They are the wind-talkers/code-talkers! They would rather they get shot by their own guys before capture by the enemy.

Can we just scrap other languages and use English instead? It is taught in all the world at a young age anyways.

As a native English speaker that would be grand, but there's far too many Americans who are like "DON'T THEY SPEAK AMERICAN HERE" that I think it's worthwhile we have different languages to keep those fuckwits as sources of entertainment.

No, I want to be able to make fun of English speakers without them being able to understand me .

[General]

I think i can do that even in English, because of the accent

These are amazing!

I still have difficulty understanding how the fuck they managed to made these work. Interpreting brain signals to fucking use a machine

Electricity is not magic. It's determined by a very limited amount of parameters.

Yes but there is bazillion amount of nerves and their connections are not easy to observe or understood.

And even if magic existed, it would still be bound to some rules of physics we don't yet understand, so therefore it will be just science

Science is basically magic except mostly logical and way more impressive .

[General]

If the universe is a simulation, then it is logical to assume developers built cheat codes to test stuff faster instead of grinding like simulated beings.
Maybe one of them shared cheat codes just for the lulz or it was also an experiment, perhaps that is where the magic is originated from
