Time to smoke one.

Yo, if it has round corners and sounds USAmerican it must be so cool!

What a shitty title to the article. It should be “Actors demand action over unanticipated video game sex (and rape) scenes”. Especially if the actor may be a rape survivor, asking them to act that out without any warning is idiotic at best and harmful at worst.

Thanks, you’re correct. I was mixing that up with Latin and Greek. Dunno if Spanish and other romance languages have it too.

Let’s be honest: it looks like shit and interrupts the flow of a sentence. The alternative of writing both words completely also makes sentences way longer than they should be.

Every gendered language would have to make massive changes to become ungendered and change their grammar too. There’s quite a large list of ungendered languages.

German, to my knowledge, is like Russian and has cases which change the ending of a noun depending on the purpose in the sentence (subject, direct object, indirect object, possessor, location, time, …). Languages with only male and female would have to add a neutral ending, and languages with 3 grammatical genders would have to either use the neutral ending - if there is one, or make a new one specific to living beings.

Then of course pronouns would have to be changed too. In English they/them is already confusing enough when talking about a singular person to somebody and the person doesn’t know it’s a single person e.g “I talked to them today” - a group or a person? Until hints are dropped it isn’t clear. The most logical would’ve been “it”, but that’s used for inanimate objects. I’m sure there’s a neutral third person singular pronoun languages could borrow instead of using the second person plural.

Yes, I read the manual of everything I use. I have read every law book back to front, know it by heart and will never ever unknowingly commit any crimes. The car I drive, I know how to repair, no mechanic needed, I write all my software because I’ve read every guide known to man, I am in fact the perfect human being with no flaws and am up to date on every rule there is.

Which most people don’t follow, which is exactly the point I’m making.

Just because it requires it doesn’t mean most will follow it. Voting requires being informed, most people aren’t. Driving cars requires paying attention, many people are on their phones while driving.

I could go on. You’re describing an ideal.

No you don’t. Why do you need to read the changelogs?

Yes, you’re the exception, not the rule.

Until the next dumb shit Mozilla does without telling its users.

While introducing opt-out tracking where you data is sent to advertisers. Get LibreWolf instead.

Bound by duty

There probably are servers that try to be more tolerant or other opinions, but I think social media could be improved by something like in this video. I put a timestamp but TL;DW not just upvote+downvote, yes or no, but more diverse reactions like “partially agree”, “offtopic”, “you have convinced me”, “informative”, “misses the point”, etc.

So not just up and down, but left, right, diagonal and every which way to have a broader spectrum of human reactions instead of a binary one.

Additionally, add a more structured conversation flow depending on the community. A community for questions looks more like quora, a science community could maybe want options to add sources and have them aggregated in a thread, and so on.

US shooters are used to moving targets in schools or seated targets in movie theaters.

Yeah, in comparison, that’s for sure. But if they don’t join, they fulfill their own prophecy.
