In honesty (my last comment was clearly not legit), you likely do pronounce the ‘L’; most accents will include this in my experience.

Does the tip of your tongue touch the roof of your mouth just on or behind the ridge before your front teeth? If you release your tongue before pronouncing the ‘D’ is there a release of air? If you do position your tongue here and there is no release of air before pronouncing the ‘D’ (which does release air), then you are pronouncing the ‘L’.

I wonder how many of these were people who voted for Trump in 2016 and now feel shame/embarrassment after seeing the entailing colossal clusterfuck they were partially responsible for.

Crunchyroll’s (then Funimation) acquisition of Animelab is what led me to stop paying to stream anime.

Lower quality videos. Harder to navigate. Distracting watermarks on the side of the screen. Blocking VPNs. Ads even though you already pay them.

I hate that there is so little effort put into preventing monopolies from buying out the competition

It’s pronounced ‘moeoueieueld’. You really need to emphasise the ‘a’ sound to get it right.

Crew of Soyuz 11: “Well, screw you too!”

Anyone can be a martyr; all you need to do is believe your cause has more value than your own life. However, we have another word for someone who believes their cause has more value than the lives of innocent bystanders. Yahya Sinwar was a terrorist.

Sinwar won’t be remembered as a martyr, he will be remembered as a selfish fool. There is no doubt in my mind that more Palestinians would be alive today if Yahya Sinwar were never born.

This is a fair assessment. I actually like politics, but I have still blocked numerous political communities because the users spam variations of the exact same 2 articles over, and over, and over, and over again.

It’s either going to be:

1. Trump be stoopid
2. Israel be bad

The first few times were interesting, now it’s just effing annoying. Blocking these communities has definitely improved my Lemmy experience.

I used to pay for 4 streaming subscriptions.

Now no one gets my money. I would love to support developers, but I’m unwilling to put up with this bullshit to do so.

Ads even though I already pay? Have to turn off my VPN to use your website? Incomplete series? Inability to watch content offline? Regularly increase the cost well above inflation level? Geolocking content?

Streaming services get shittier and shittier with each passing day. Glad I ‘opted out’.

It’s probably the website geoblocking content and OP is not at fault for posting a low-value article as I initially thought; my bad. I don’t want to disincentive people posting legitimate content, so my previous comment was uncalled for.

Edit: it’s both extremely telling and extremely concerning how much my rational take on consent is triggering all these pathetic men.

Your initial comment was rational, it was well-thought out and you made a fair point while ending the comment on a positive note. Left alone, I would have upvoted your well-considered opinion and moved on.

However, your follow up responses and your edit were unprovoked ad hominem sexist attacks where you assume everyone who disagrees is a mansplaining penis-wielder whose words have less value than your own. While having your views challenged can be confronting, responding in the manner you are only detracts from your argument.

Stop wasting my time.

Australians do. As do international companies selling to the Australian market.

This post makes me question my interpretation of events.

I have acquaintances who seem to have a paranoid belief that every other person in the world is a paedophile just waiting for an opportunity to kidnap their child. Growing up in the 90s, I had a great deal of freedom in comparison to this thought process. I played cricket on the streets, I walked around the neighbourhood without concern, I walked my dog in the evenings. My parents didn’t seem to think I would be unsafe without them around to coddle me.

I guess no matter the generation there are parents who go too far in one extreme or another… Though tbh, being concerned about witchcraft seems more medieval than boomer. Sorry for your loss, but I’m glad you feel more free now. I imagine it must be a complex mix of emotions.

It’s sold in quite a few different countries. I get it from Woolworths in Australia.

I can’t really remember what spam tastes like, except that I recall not liking it as a kid; I think it was too salty and too spongy for my liking. This product seems to have a meatier texture than spam though. I’ve tried it a few different ways and it’s quite enjoyable. I even use it as a burger patty replacement. Slice it up, fry it, and it pairs well with cheese and tomato sauce.

I was very doubtful about this when it first came out, but it was really cheap at one point so I gave it a try, even though I don’t like spam. This stuff is delicious.

I’ve been using Linux on and off for years and I’ve never really understood what these different directories are for. If I don’t know where something is I just search for it, though more often than not whatever I’m looking for is somewhere in the home directory. I’m also not sure of the accuracy of this though. I have a VM in /run, and an SSD and thumb drive in /media. I would’ve expected these to be in /mnt.

Not a good comparison. To produce milk regularly cows must give birth. These calves are often sold to be slaughtered as veal. Likewise situation for eggs. To produce hens farmers typically wait until the chicks hatch and throw the unwanted male chicks in a grinder.

This somehow makes me feel both old and young at the same time.

Thanks. What a shitty news article to not even provide the video (yet still include a completely unrelated random video at the top of the page anyway).
