I’m kinda tired of arguments that expect the minoritized group to not “radicalize” the majority group. Why is it on the people who are being oppressed to not offend people aren’t even necessarily oppressors? Honestly, this comment is tone deaf as fuck.
It’s respectability politics. The same as when people complain about climate protestors blocking roads etc. There’s a huge segment of society that cares more about avoiding any sort of conflict than achieving just outcomes.
Okay but they often don’t give users what they want
You should see the state of Firefox on iPad OS. I started using it earlier this year after they finally rolled out support for multiple windows—a feature Safari added in 2019 and Chrome had only a few months later.
Nice that they finally have this feature, but the browser itself is nearly unusable. It stutters constantly and freezes, locks up, or force reloads with some regularity. In a way that Chrome and Edge (and I assume Safari, though I have never really used that) never do.
Or on desktop OSes, a website I frequented around 2016–2018 used the column-span
CSS property, which Firefox didn’t get around to implementing until December 2019.
It’s been very clear for some time that, whether it’s because they stretch themselves too thin or some other reason, Mozilla has been failing to continue to deliver an excellent product for their users.
Ah, donc le mot “conviction” ne peut pas être un double entendre? Quand j’ai lu le Tweet en anglais, j’ai cru que Macron veut dire les deux. La signification superficielle, que tu as dit, et aussi la signification la plus profonde, qui est une coupe subtile à Trump. Ce n’est pas possible en français ?
Est-ce que le mot “convictions” a la même deux significations en français qu’il a en anglais ?
Got a link that works without signing in?
Oh huh. Until I read this comment I assumed it was written from the perspective of the weird alien things, and “bipeds” referred to the humans…
Maccas HQ should take the guy’s franchise off of him, then. They did it near me to a guy whose only crime was supporting the local community more than extracting maximum profit, surely making a political endorsement that HQ doesn’t agree with should be grounds for the same. Right‽
I just want to point out that “the solstice marks the start of the season” is not a universal fact. Here in Aus, we mark the start of summer as 1 December, and so if I were to take my perspective and apply it to the northern hemisphere, I would say that for you, Christmas is about a third of the way through winter.
The difference here is technically referred to as “meteorological” vs “astronomical” seasons. I’ve always thought meteorological seasons make far more sense because they much better reflect reality. Winter is defined by cold weather and short days. The winter solstice is already very cold and it has the shortest day. It is absurd to put the shortest day at the very beginning of winter. If you wanted to have an astronomically-based calendar, the solstice should mark the very midpoint of winter, with the season starting precisely halfway between then and the autumnal equinox.
But also, as the other user mentioned, some places have entirely different season systems. Seasons are, fundamentally, a human creation. The notion that weather patterns change throughout the year is a universal fact, but what we call those changes and how many categories we separate it into is human. Many cultures have their own systems with more or different seasons. Many tropical areas have traditionally only observed “wet” (or monsoon) and “dry” seasons. In ancient Egypt, the flooding of the Nile marked an important seasonal change. And South Asia uses a variety of different 6-season systems, such as the Hindu, Bengali, and Tamil calendars.

This is a bad take. It would work if D&D 5e were the only rules in existence, but it isn’t even the only version of D&D in the conversation, pretty alone the wife breadth of other systems out there. I’ve been singing Pathfinder 2e’s praises for nearly 2 years now, and if the problem with PF is that it’s too crunchy, there are numerous other much lighter systems out there like Dungeon World or 13th Age.
By all means, use 5e if it works for you, but that shouldn’t stop criticism of it in places where the rules can be exploited, especially if other systems lack those exploits.
Cadbury Bubbly does it too, though sadly I haven’t seen any of it on shelves (apart from the mint variant, eww) for a few years.
I’m guessing he didn’t know she was Native American and just saw a non-white person and assumed non-white=immigrant. Never mind that even if she were of Asian or Latin descent it’s entirely possible her family had been American for generations.
!sexmemes at whatever instance that community is in.
Every one of Innuendo Studio’s videos are absolutely excellent.
Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?
I had a quick look at your instance with traceroute and it seems to be hosted in the US. Which matches up well with the administrator being (according to his bio linked in the sidebar) American.
Oh damn, nice! I didn’t realise it was more than a one-off. Cows & Cows & Cows was such a classic back in the day.
