What is the irony?

This just sounds like platonic masturbation.

EDIT: I started this thread tongue and cheek, but also genuine, but based on the OP's comment replies here I'm fairly convinced that they are either: a) talking to chatGPT so much that they've lost the ability to hold a coherent conversation, or b) just using a LLM to respond everywhere in the comments. They've consistently failed to address tone and context in every comment. It reads like they don't actually understand any of the things people here are saying, just stringing together some words and syntax that sounds like language, but totally lacks any actual meaning or understanding.

Is that premise even true? This feels like begging the question.

Christopher Columbus (Squirrels & Onions remix) doesn't technically have lyrics, but I always sing the title words along with the beat, at least in my head. Kinda of like how a lot of EDM just turns into Boots and Cats in my head.

The Star Trek Theme was originally composed with lyrics.

Why?

Then maybe you can tell me what "attempting to do more" means, because the author of the article certainly didn't. Or why that's bad. My only take away is that the author thinks the system should facilitate the running of applications and just get out of their way already. But that sounds a lot like building a road network and then failing to install traffic controls because the DOT should just stay out of the way of traffic.

This is why I set up tasker to lockdown my phone under certain conditions, such as: getting disconnected from Bluetooth (like when my phone is separated from me and my watch, my headphones, or the car), getting disconnected from WiFi (like when it's taken from where it's supposed to be), getting a slight jolt from the accelerometer (like getting thrown to the ground or even just a swift tap). My phone may get locked down a bunch during day to day stuff, but at least I know it will lockdown automatically when it matters.

Mentioning anatomy isn't substantially different than photos of anatomy in a classroom setting unless you're a troll looking for a knit to pick.

Ok, the title comes from the linked article, but they aren't banned from "mentioning anatomy". They are banned from showing pictures of reproductive organs.

How is that any better? Next your going to rationalize having no books in a literature class, showing no pictures of cells in a biology class, or having a trigonometry class without using the devil's radians.

I don't know why some people seem compelled to ignore all context and rationalize state sponored religious persecution in the name of "protecting the children". It's not post-truth just because you've decided to willfully ignore all the context.

I'm sure there are other birds that look more like the sketch on the right.

Yeah, they got the sudo placement inside out. You "sudo crontab -e" and put your commands there that need sudo, you don't sudo the individual commands in the regular user's crontab.

Larry Niven kind of works out this naming in several of his novels. I don't remember all the specifics, and he also used a similar scheme to describe travel in ring world, but it's close enough. First, don't bother with calling it north, that is just confusing. In the reference frame of yourself or the map you're drawing in a spinning galaxy, you've got spinward (in relation to the galactic spin) and anti-spinward, in (toward galactic center) and out, and then normal (orthogonal) to those dimensions, which you could call up and down depending on your preference. I'd probably call spinward, inward, and up positive.

If you need a reference (north) for a galactic map, it's really unlikely you'll want to use anything like grid coordinates. You can use the same ideas from the local map. You'd probably want an origin at the gravity center of the galaxy and pick another object as a reference point from which to zero angular measurements around the disc. That other object could be another galaxy (if you want to measure galactic spin itself) or something distinct and obvious in our own galaxy (if you want to navigate within the galaxy). Most civilizations would probably just use a line between their home system and galactic center as their prime meridian. Up and down should be orthogonal to spin again. If you're home planet had a magnetic pole roughly pointing out of the galactic disc (like ours), you'd probably choose your "north" pole's side up.

I know the Hogwarts Legacy game got a lot of hate from Rowling being a monster, but the game mechanics really let you optimize stealthing. I've snuck into many a goblin stronghold and just sneaky sneak murder-hobo'd like 20 or more of them, one at a time, looting the bodies before they even hit the floor. They even show the little ! icon. I feel like I'm playing Solid Snake goes to Hogwarts sometimes.

At they end? The whole thing is toxic incel red-pilled hate speech.

But it tastes so much worse than adding a ball of wasabi to the piece and dipping the soy sauce separately if at all. How can you possibly get enough wasabi to really bring out the flavor of the fish without absolutely drowning your sushi in soy sauce? Not every piece should get the same proportion of soy sauce and wasabi either.

Sure you are. God I hope you're lying because your flippant arrogance is a toxic quality for a teacher to demonstrate like this. This person wasn't asking for an anthropologist's academic use of people vs. persons.

peoples /pē′pəl/

Plural form of people

noun Humans considered as a group or in indefinite numbers. Often treated as a plural of person, especially in compounds. "People were dancing in the street. I met all sorts of people. This book is not intended for laypeople." The mass of ordinary persons; the populace. Used with the. **A body of persons **living in the same country under one national government; a nationality. The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition • More at Wordnik

Both persons and people can be used as plural forms of person. Persons is often used in formal, legal contexts to emphasize individuals as opposed to a group. People is the plural of person that’s most commonly used in everyday communication to simply refer to multiple humans. But people can also be used as a singular noun to refer to a population or particular community. The plural of this sense of people is peoples, and it’s often used in terms like Indigenous Peoples (in which it’s often capitalized since it refers to specific communities).

peoples plural of people (“a race, group or nationality”) The course studies the history of Africa and the peoples who lived there.

"People" is a generic term for more than one person.

"Persons" denotes a singular distinct grouping of people. Ie, Native American persons.

Are you sure about that? Cause it sounds like you've never spoken to a native English speaker about the terms here.

A group of persons with a commonality are a people. The individuals are persons within a group. You can say "a group of people", but that's different (like a sheep vs. a flock of sheep and also a distraction here). The group is a people. People is not a generic term for multiple persons, it's implicitly a group with some commonality. Nobody says "the American persons", it's "the American people". The "various peoples of North America" would refer to a plurality of various and distinct groups of persons.
