One of the first words Japanese language learning resources teach you is the word for baseball. It’s 野球 yakyuu (“field ball”) btw

The recent EU elections are a pretty good reminder of this

I was gonna disagree, but I couldn’t actually think of a functioning stateless ideology which allows private property. Anarchism is inherently for abolishing private property, so that’s out already. That mostly just leaves you with "anarcho-"capitalism which is just replacing the government with an ultra-capitalist power structure and decimating social mobility, it’s just an undemocratic state but shittier…

Shoot them

We’re allowed to kill Abe Lincoln and JFK, why aren’t we allowed to kill these guys? Why does Reagan get plot armor out of all the presidents? Who wrote this shit?

To be fair JFK getting shot was pretty epic though. He almost caused nuclear holocaust (although a more rabidly anti-communist president may have definitely caused nuclear holocaust), war crimed the South Vietnamese a ton, and stabilized Israel. RFK getting assassinated was less epic because that gave us Nixon

I have plenty of WEBP and every image editing/viewing application I have installed can use it fine. Including, but not limited to:

pdn, GIMP, Krita, Aseprite, InkScape, OpenToonz, IrfanView

I think Apple users have issues with Webm & Webp? But the issue here is using Apple products in the first place. Losing 90% of basic functionality is what you expect when using one of those.

They are the strongest DRM on the market.

LMAO you have got to be shitting me. It is the bare minimum for DRM, it’s weak as fuck and games protected by Steamworks DRM are cracked almost immediately by casuals

and for people unfamiliar with the field it has always been a term synonymous with AGI.

Gamers screaming about the AI of bots/NPCs making them mad beg to differ

Lol what? How did you conclude that if 9x = 5 then x = 1? Surely you didn’t pass algebra in high school, otherwise you could see that getting x from 9x = 5 requires dividing both sides by 9, which yields x = 5/9, i.e. 0.555... = 5/9 since x = 0.555....

Also, you shouldn’t just use uppercase X in place of lowercase x or vice versa. Case is usually significant for variable names.

Pi isn’t a fraction (in the sense of a rational fraction, an algebraic fraction where the numerator and denominator are both polynomials, like a ratio of 2 integers) – it’s an irrational number, i.e. a number with no fractional form; as opposed to rational numbers, which are defined as being able to be expressed as a fraction. Furthermore, π is a transcendental number, meaning it’s never a solution to f(x) = 0, where f(x) is a non-zero finite-degree polynomial expression with rational coefficients. That’s like, literally part of the definition. They cannot be compared to rational numbers like fractions.

Every rational number (and therefore every fraction) can be expressed using either repeating decimals or terminating decimals. Contrastly, irrational numbers only have decimal expansions which are both non-repeating and non-terminating.

Since |r|<1 → ∑[n=1, ∞] arⁿ = ar/(1-r), and 0.999... is equivalent to that sum with a = 9 and r = 1/10 (visually, 0.999... = 9(0.1) + 9(0.01) + 9(0.001) + ...), it’s easy to see after plugging in, 0.999... = ∑[n=1, ∞] 9(1/10)ⁿ = 9(1/10) / (1 - 1/10) = 0.9/0.9 = 1). This was a proof present in Euler’s Elements of Algebra.

We don’t call that gambling, no, no, we call that LOTTERY! In Georgia at least.

The American spelling “matte” probably comes from the spelling “mate” derived from French “mate”, and doubling the “t” to differentiate it from “mate”. The British spelling “matt” was probably primarily influenced by the German word “Matt” considering the UK tended to have more German influence.

Alternatively, either (or both) may be an etymological spelling from Latin “mattus” (which means “drunk” but likely became a word for “pale” in French).

While I am a linguist, I only deduced this from a bit of Googling and a lot of speculating, so don’t take my word for it…

It worked for Turkey… until recently…

Also what Europe if every people group with a unintelligible dialect had a nation.

Papua New Guinea/Indonesia and Africa have like a thousand to a two thousand languages each, I think it’d be funnier doing that with them

here’s a replica i just made using the equal earth projection

and here’s one using the authagraph projection

i wanted to make one using the mollweide projection, but i couldn’t find a good blank map with borders to use

they’re both poor work, but i don’t want to put in the effort to fix them, and it’s pretty funny imagining icelanders getting mad that i put them in north america

both used blank world map images ripped from wikipedia plus getpaint.net

More like always been our starter pokémon, it’s just wayyy easier to notice the more dystopian capitalism gets considering ADHD is like the antithesis of the neurology of a “successful capitalist”

I saw your comment and was surprised to learn that the attacker is an illegal immigrant from Canada that overstayed his tourist visa for 20 years. Huh. I guess that technically means his “illegals are a danger to national security” beliefs are based on personal experience?

is it that difficult to look up the answer from a reliable source?

With the current state of search engines and their content (almost completely unrelated garbage and shitty blogs make in like 3 minutes with 1/4 of the content poorly copy-pasted out of context from stackoverflow and most of the rest being pop-ups and ads), YES

SEO ““engineers”” deserve the guillotine

Assuming this is when they’re a teenager, they don’t get rights. Minors getting rights in the US is an illusion
