The advantages of catching the specific exceptions are that 1. you can tailor your response to each specific exception, since they may warrant different approaches, and 2. If an exception is thrown outside of the ones you specifically account for, it may indicate a problem with your code rather than a transient error (e.g. you probably shouldn't be blindly triggering an ArrayOutOfBounds exception or a NullPointerException instead of doing the appropriate checks).

It baffles me how libs are able to compartmentalize the manifest horrors currently being perpetrated by the United States and have rah-rah Fourth of July celebrations. Thankfully I didn't have to endure a full-blown party myself, but the contact I did have had me making this expression rust-darkness and doing everything I could not to blurt out my best Maoist Standard English taking-restraint

It's true, I don't know her—but I definitely know of Mærsk! Hard to miss all the ships and shipping containers with the family name on them.

Shows up similarly jank in Jerboa—I've added a link to the readme PDF in my original post for those having problems (and besides, it has some other useful information)

The readme recommends a few specific emulators and settings—I've reproduced the tables here:

The character depicted is a detective-themed VTuber called Amelia Watson and her fan mascot is the Investigator (seen on the grabber)

If anyone's wondering why, it's called ateji: writing foreign loanwords with kanji that have similar sounds but not necessarily much correspondence in meaning. Nowadays people just write things using katakana (a phonetic script where each character represents a single syllable), but ateji used to be the standard. That said, it's still very common to see single-character abbreviations for countries which use the first character of their ateji names (e.g. 独 for Germany, 豪 for Australia, and the aforementioned 仏 for France) in headlines as well as compounds like {日豪|にちごう}{関係|かんけい} (Japan-Australian relations) or, apparently, {仏式|ふつしき}バルブ.

You need that Japanese bath reheating technology (it's the おいだき oidaki function referenced in that video)
