Reply to ELI5: What is the difference between colons and semicolons when joining sentences? by Nayfonn
it's different,
colons are commonly used for emphasis, show dialogue, introducing lists or text, and clarifying composition (the one in your example)
while semicolons from what I understand, is used to join two different sentences that stem from one same idea where using a period is too strong (as it's end a sentence and would introduce a new idea), and using a comma is too weak (as it's used to continue the previous words without ending a sentence).

JRPGs are notorious for this, many says the genre mainly focuses on story as they put less effort on combat but goddamn the thing you have to know is ridiculous.
Final Fantasy 8 is one such case with GF (a.k.a Summons/Eidolons), how you equip it, how you level it up, how it interacts with status, how it interacts with equipped spells, and its magic system that doesn't use mana point but instead act like a perishable items, which depends on how you do things, you can be massively underpowered in the endgame or ridiculously overpowered since Disc 1.
other genre that's notorious with having too many mechanics is the 'Grand Strategy' genre, basically all Paradox games (Hearts of Iron, Crusader Kings, Europa Universalis). You could open several semesters of class just to teach these games' basic mechanics.

Reply to eli5. If Windows is an 11gb download, why do you need at least 65gbs free on your hard drive to run it? by graemo72
Because download size does not equal installed size. A bunch of files can be compressed to be much smaller in order to make downloading faster.
to find out what's taking up your space, I recommend WizTree

I'm more familiar with the squire of the high pot and noose joke

that's too advanced for me as I don't know what 'squaw' means and how to pronounce it
