I first thought this was a bad idea by Paypal but you opened my eyes

I thought you were talking about “makaronivelli” before you specified the milk was for drinking.

Yeah, to paraphrase something I once read on the other site, “unknown” doesn’t mean “I don’t know”.

Oh not at all, they’re patented Skinner burgers, an old family recipe.

People also often feed bread to birds, but bread is harmful to birds because it doesn’t provide the nutrients they need while filling them up so that they don’t go find more nutritious foods.

This is called the etymological fallacy

And I expect the browser is none of those things.

This is looking really cool! I’m really interested in trying it out.

Since you mentioned Garmin Connect in this thread, I would like to throw in my five cents too. I’m in the Garmin ecosystem for my fitness tracking devices, so it would be amazing if the game could get my step counts from Garmin Connect, since that’s where I’m collecting them anyway, and lugging my phone around to do the step counting can be a bit cumbersome. But if the game is fun enough, I guess it’s not a dealbreaker for the time being!

cops have learned to just play copyrighted music (say the Frozen soundtrack)

I hope they’ve secured the proper licenses for a public performance of that music.

I was never a fan of Calibri but the new font looks way too Arial-like for my taste.

And they didn’t even hit the guy they believed to be shooting at them. Don’t get me wrong, it’s good that he was not injured for nothing. But with all that blasting, they didn’t even hit their target.

This footage gets regularly played in documentaries and Youtube videos when nuclear weapons are discussed, so many people are familiar with it.

Why did the North Vietnamese fight against the United States? Surely they could not have won?

Why did the Afghani fight against the Soviet Union? There’s no way they could win against a superpower, right?

Why did the US fight against Japan after Pear Harbor? It just meant that more people got killed, both American and Japanese.

Why did the Soviet Union fight against Nazi Germany? It literally was just killing more people, both Soviet and German.

What Russians are doing might or might not be genocide in the strictest sense. But it definitely is cultural genocide, since their goal is to wipe out the Ukrainian identity, language and culture. Russianization is what Russia has always done to other peoples they have subjugated over the centuries.

Pihole and uBlock Origin have different purposes. Pihole blocks ad domains network-wide. uBlock Origin can remove specific elements from specific webpages with surgical precision regardless of the domain the content is served from, so it is a much more precise wide-spectrum content blocker.

In other words, uBlock Origin can block basically everything, but only works in your browser. Pihole blocks fewer things and less precisely but works for all your devices.

if my folks regularly add hours to their day/week to get their job done they’re not good at their job

Or they have too much work

No

Sometimes, initialism or alphabetism is used to refer to acronyms formed from the string of initials which are usually pronounced as individual letters

It’s a very deliberate phrasing, since not everyone agrees that initialisms are not acronyms.

Personally I think that “ackhually that’s an initialism not an acronym 🤓” is exactly the kind of ultimately irrelevant distinction that internet know-it-alls love to know and point out. I know because I used to be like that too when I was younger.

But often those distinctions are not universally acknowledged or useful in all contexts. Like how strawberries are not scientifically berries, but we still often group them as berries.

Nitpicking word definitions is pointless when the distinction being pointed out is not relevant for the conversation.
