Yeah, I guess, but as long as the challenge is still achievable I can dig a large field.

It's easier to place and organize finished assets than to create new ones, though, so after a while a lot of it starts to feel copy-pasted. I'm sure that noticeable lack of effort will only be exasperated by modern automation.

*exacerbated

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world -1 points 2 days ago (2 children)

My spelling is accepted when I search the word.

[–] nyamlae@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yes, because that is a completely different word.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world -2 points 1 day ago

Not according to a simple search, no.

Yes, it close enough to a homonym that I can see your confusion. Exasperated is being fed up with something, exacerbated is something making a problem worse.

Edit - Oh, if you notice in your screenshot ddg got the definition you showed from wiktionary, so I wouldn’t treat that as an authoritative source.

You never had anything to gain by choosing a different word in this discussion, your goal is to prove my chosen word wrong, and you've failed so far.

Bro I was just trying to be helpful. I wasn’t trying to prove shit, I didn’t have any fucking goal or ulterior motive. Tell yourself whatever you need to get through the day though.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 0 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Bye bye, now.

[–] borari@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 hour ago

Dude you’re really exasperating me by exacerbating this situation.

Dictionaries frequently show common usages, even when they are misnomers. Recommend taking this one onboard.
