Does your brain also say it with the same voice as “Reticulating Splines” from SimCity?

I always remember the ‘pp’ by imagining it as some suburban estate. “Philip Pines”

Just ignore the labels. They’re one-size-fits-all ideas made up by strangers at some point, so you’ll never be able to properly wear any of them. They’re ultimately pointless things anyway.

Work at a university; try telling that to the academics. Some of them are phenomenally simple. They may be convinced of intellectual superiority because they’re a world expert in frog genders, but they struggle to solve simple problems or absorb reasoning without having it dumbed down.

A university is like a daycare for those adults. And the trantrums and toy throwing they have with each other, oh my god. Daily I wonder how some of these people would survive if they ever had to leave school.

The global oligarchs like many things. Some like children, some like crepes, some like yachts. But these things are as much political ideologies.as the Professor we’re talking about is a global oligarch.

I get that you want to raise your disdain of something with every chance you can get, but some times the context will make for such a stretch that your words will becomr devalued by your intended audience.

These are not political ideologies.

That business behaviour is illegal where I am. We have regulations and they’re actually exercised.

Hell, yeah. A linguist enters the chat.

So from Semitic languages, to Latin—which also can translate feminine, masculine, and anything between as three states jusr fine—to period-subjected variations of English, up to the modern day take, it should’ve been kept quite clear. But sometimes over a few thousand years it may have been skewed. At least enough to open up interpretation in a way that interpretation aligns with one’s beliefs or desires.

Well, I am shocked that this could happen to an Abrahamic religion /s

That’s a really poor translation. It sounds more like God gave the “you” reproductivity.

Fuck we’re weird.

That might be 2026’s Best Self-burn Award winner.

It’s got all the irony and impact only a stupid oerskn could conjure.

Zelensky reiterated that Ukraine is ready to provide drone interceptors in exchange for missiles, though he did not specify which countries could be involved.

Well, well, well… Tables the turned how have.

You forgot then asked them for help in Iran.

Yeah WH1000XMs are a very popular bang for buck wireless set. 5 is the latest.

That said, I have 2s that still go strong besides the battery. 4s going strong for a few years. Partner has had 5s for a while, no issues. All plastic hinges.

Not sure what OP is doing. Seems like a difficult part of the headset to break.

Spain most certainly wouldn’t.

So, Whitehouse, you’re telling me the guys that sent a naval ship to support the Gaza flotilla, is the base of the next floatilla launching, and has routinely and aggressively opposed Israel, their crimes against humanity, and disregard of international law, much louder than any other country; that Spain has suddenly started helping with the Iran thing?

Seems weird that Russia would attempt something based entirely on the rest of the world trusting Russia.

That’s what plenty of people do here on Lemmy, though. And from my experience, their inventive narratives are always wrong. Not just wrong, but often as polarised from the truth as could be.

I think it’s an echo chamber thing. They just assume everything is like how it is in their feed. That view makes the building blocks for a narrative out of nothing. Suddenly the claim is made a person likes killing when there’s nothing indicating that or even a reason to bring it up. Their head just goes there for some reason and with confidence to boot. Weird.

Get another OS on a bootable USB—Cachy, Ubuntu, whatever—and install over Pop. This is like a 15 min process. The hardest part is making a bootable drive, you’ll just need access to another comp to throw another OS onto the USB, but then you’re done. Hell, use it as an opportunity to try out some different distros lol

You just need something on there that is 1080 friendly because you currently do not.

You could troubleshoot, but the best way to beat a broken fresh install is with a better fresh install, since you’re already there.

Once done, deal with whatever Window’s issue is after that, if it even still has one. Use GRUB moving onward.

12 month rule. If you haven’t used it in a year or forgot it exists, get rid of it. In the end, it’s just shit made in a factory somewhere and nothing special.

It has nothing to do with one’s ability to detect text tone better than another cohort. It is simply using the brain for a split second to evaluate which is more likely; a pro-AIDS misogynistic Lemmy user, or someone taking the piss on the fact Lemmy users are much the opposite.

It is clearly “Amiright, guys?” character humour and really only requires some minimal effort to realise that.

Though, at this point it really doesn’t matter as those that think for themselves by looking at what others thought (the vote counters) will contribute by following suit.
