Handling cash isn't free either, it has to be transported, counted and probably insured, all that costs money.

Why would anyone who's against nuclear automatically be pro coal? It's not like the only options available to us are nuclear and coal.

Evil as in emacs evil-mode?

While at the same time not even using the meme format correctly.

I suppose there are two related reasons:

1. older people (but also quite a lot of young people) don't speak english that well, they would have problems understanding and dubbing has been done for so long that they expect it
2. there are enough german speakers that it's worth dubbing instead of just subtitling

For a lot of african countries english and french are more administrative languages. More and more people learn them as they're used in schools, but in everyday life other languages dominate. Calling them english speaking countries may be correct as english is the "official" language, but that's not the whole picture.

Regarding media, I can get almost anything I want in a dubbed or translated version, even some youtubers provide dubbed versions of their videos.

Ferme ta gueule.

Web 3.0 was the semantic web.

Afaik they cancelled the expansions for GTA V because they fucked up the launch of GTA Online and needed to fix that instead.

Majority of users on lemmy are probably americans by now and they assume everything is about their country.

Weird selection of cities. Very U.S. centric considering they claim "geographical diversity".

To better understand urban spatial order and city street network entropy, we analyze 100 large cities across North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. Our sampling strategy emulates Louf and Barthelemy’s (2014) to select cities through a balance of high population, regional significance, and some stratification to ensure geographical diversity within regions.

Just read the study? They modelled street networks as undirected graphs, one-way streets are treated like all other streets, as their directionality isn't considered.

Street networks are typically modeled as graphs where nodes represent intersections and dead-ends, and edges represent the street segments that link them (Barthelemy and Flammini 2008; Cardillo et al. 2006; Lin and Ban 2013; Marshall et al. 2018; Porta et al. 2006). These edges are spatially embedded and have both a length and a compass bearing (Barthelemy 2011). The present study models urban street networks as undirected nonplanar multigraphs with possible self-loops. While directed graphs most-faithfully represent constraints on flows (such as vehicular traffic on a one-way street), undirected graphs better model urban form by corresponding 1:1 with street segments (i.e., the linear sides of city blocks). While many street networks are approximately planar (having relatively few overpasses or underpasses), nonplanar graphs provide more accurate models by accommodating those bridges and tunnels that do often exist (Boeing 2018c; Eppstein and Goodrich 2008).

It's wug, but you pronounce it like weeg.

It's a nonsense word, there's no right or wrong plural for it, most will say wugs, just like you did and that's the entire point of this test.

Oh we still do, we still do.

Lower budgets would probably be better. High budgets mean high risk, developers and publishers try to minimize that risk and you get bland games that try to cater to too many tastes. Movies suffer from the same problem. They get budgets in the hundreds of millions and you wonder what they spent it all for.

The one taking the photo.

I read several different drafts I could find since writing that comment and although it's alll written somewhat vague in general, OP's point isn't in any draft I read.
