I love it

Gendered articles probably not but having "a" vs "the" removes the need for additional cases (eg. I/me/my). Latin and Russian don't have articles but they have more cases which have different suffixes that have to be applied to all nouns. Usually simplifying one part of language makes another part more complex. English has a very simple case structure but the word order is much more strict

That's the subreddit I miss the most. Some of the best history content on the web

And how did we get Finnish from Suomi?

Edit: I missed the other comment with the answer. Once again it was Romans

I'm a software engineer and own a car. I take the bus downtown because I hate trying to find a parking spot and dealing with other drivers.

Everyone get a job at Amazon and start posting slurs on twitter so we can take them both down at once

I agree but what does this have to do with this beautiful, efficient railyard?

An 8-10 inch mid level chef knife. One with a single bevel made of quality steel that can hold an edge will make a world of difference. You haven't lived until you've cut paper thin potato slices like butter

Is that what were calling apartment buildings now?

Not OP here, what do I do if this is my mother?

He's got a well organized workshop too

The high speed rail is pretty rad

Nice, though if I lose my job and insurance due to the paralyzing anxiety I have regarding losing my job and insurance, this doesn't really make a difference

MasterCard is the worst. They required like 150 manual tests for an EMV certification and used their own shitty test report format and now this?!

Russia should stop invading Ukraine so the war would end but they keep shooting missiles at civilians instead

And the owners will use it as an excuse to not hire more workers or increase wages for the more productive current workers

It's usually called feudalism at that point

What about when a few rich folks buy up all the land and you can't afford any for yourself so you have to work for them or starve? Like what's happening now

Quit posting quality content like this so I can stop

It's more of a "fuck car dependent infrastructure" thing. In America it's basically impossible to live without a car in most places. We don't need to live this way and we should have the option to walk, bike, bus, train, etc as well as drive.

Try walking to the grocery store in a suburb and you'll quickly get sick of walking through big empty parking lots and along roads without sidewalks as cars whip past. I wouldn't even try biking since drivers will run you off the road. If there even is a bus it'll run every 2 hours and be 15 minutes late. And there is no train because we tore up the rail system that built this country to make auto company owners even richer
