Generations VI, VII and VIII all had fewer than 100 new Pokemon.

Why do you believe a “nutrition brick” would be at all more appetizing than the things described in OP?

Goober is a term for peanuts in general, it’s not specific to African peanuts. It can indeed be used colloquially to refer to a simpleton or silly person, but it doesn’t have any particular racial connotation.

The only connection to Africa I could find is the etymology, as the word was borrowed from an African language. Considering 75% of English’s vocabulary (including swear words) is borrowed from other languages, I don’t think this is a particularly pertinent thing to take issue with. I mean, unless you have a source showing I’m wrong. No source I could find points to any racist connotation for the word “goober”.

itch.io also has a Linux app

So… why are people upset about this? I’d say it’s about damn time. Having two settings apps is pretty ridiculous and it’s honestly crazy it’s taken them this long to ditch the control panel. I still remember people making fun of Microsoft’s inability to drop control panel in the Windows 10 era. Is there anything special about the control panel or uniquely terrible about the settings app that would warrant this kind of negative reaction? Is it because of the settings that aren’t available in settings? If they’re preparing to drop control panel that probably means they’re going to add whatever settings are still stranded on it to the new settings app, unless there’s evidence that they won’t do that.

The fact that the word “alienation” already existed doesn’t mean Marx didn’t have a specific theory about alienation in specific contexts that ended being pretty influential for philosophy. Like, holy shit, Marx’s theory of alienation isn’t obscure. Do a minimum of research before spouting ignorant bullshit.

So you believe that Mozilla was just “cutting useless bloat” on the sole basis that “If it was good Mozilla would’ve used it more”? Yes, I think I will stick with my own take. They dropped it because making web engines is expensive and they no longer wanted to invest in making a new one in Rust. It was good, that’s the entire reason people are complaining.

Servo is not the old name for Gecko. Gecko existed long before Servo was started and Servo continues to be developed independently of Mozilla. It was a research project to develop a web rendering engine in Rust taking advantage of parallelization. The parallelization stuff mostly made it through the Quantum project several years ago, which did indeed help performance. That’s about it. As of right now, Gecko’s code base 55.4% C++, 22.6% JavaScript, 4.5% C, 4.3% Kotlin and a mere 3.8% Rust. If Servo had indeed been integrated into Firefox, over half of this would be Rust. 53.2%, if the current Servo repository is anything to go by.

laying off the servo staff at least was a mistake

Really, it would work for one religion plus its derivatives.

Yuzu wasn’t. Suyu was.

There is no such thing as a fully uncontacted tribe. The term is used to refer to peoples that choose to remain in isolation. Therefore, “uncontacted” and “reclusive” can more or less be used interchangeably.

Today, Venezuela had its elections, almost certainly rigged by the autocratic Maduro regime. No one here cares.

Today, Malaysia applied to join the BRICS economic block. No one here cares. I’m not even sure most of the people here know what BRICS is.

Just for fun, sort this community by new and see how long it takes to find a post about the politics of literally any other country. You’ll be there for a while. Nearly everything is about the election they’re gonna have in four months.

The truth is that in a world dominated by American culture, any forum for discussion on the English Internet not explicitly about non-American topics is doomed to be instantly dominated by American discourse. If you want any amount of discussion on other countries, you have to label it as such. Because America is the first world power and to Americans, it is the default.

What I’m saying here is that whenever you see a community that labels itself something like “Political Memes”, you have to mentally prepend that name with “American”. Because this place certainly isn’t “Worldwide Political Memes”. Even the “Memes” part is pushing it, looking at what gets to the top here. It’s mostly just American liberal political opinions shared without a hint of humor or irony.

this is just going to cause indexers to ignore robots.txt

Having three levels of government is standard. It’s not a special American thing. Most countries have this outside of the really small ones. Even Serbia does, to a limited extent.

Excluding the de-facto independent province of Kosovo, The country has one autonomous province with its own government, namely Vojvodina in the North. Central Serbia however is not a province and doesn’t have its own government.

The country is further divided into 117 municipalities and 28 cities, all of which have a local government. Six of the largest cities are additionally divided into city municipalities, which also have a local government. This means that depending on where you live in the country, you’ll be subject to somewhere between two and four levels of government.

The manga? Start with chapter one. The light novel? Start with chapter one. Only the anime made it needlessly confusing.

These are known as the short scale and long scale systems respectively. Though the United States was indeed the first English-speaking country to switch to short scale, pretty much all English-speaking countries have used short scale almost exclusively for a long time, including the United Kingdom. Saying that it’s simply being influenced is an understatement. From Wikipedia:

British usage: Billion has meant 10⁹ in most sectors of official published writing for many years now. The UK government, the BBC, and most other broadcast or published mass media, have used the short scale in all contexts since the mid-1970s.^{[12][13][43][15]}

Before the widespread use of billion for 10⁹, UK usage generally referred to thousand million rather than milliard.^[16] The long scale term milliard, for 10⁹, is obsolete in British English, though its derivative, yard, is still used as slang in the London money, foreign exchange, and bond markets.

I’ve never actually seen the word milliard used in English outside of discussions about the long and short scale systems. However, many other languages do mainly or exclusively use long scale. For instance, my native language French.
