What a precious overlord!

This might be very good news! It’s always good to see fandoms weening away from fandom.com / wikia and leaning instead towards selfhosted, or at least something like Miraheze.

If this catches up soon enough, I might change all my links from the fandom wiki to the new one.

Go to uBO’s dashboard, disable scripts, reload. Or just set browser to Reader Mode. Somehow, works over 75% of the time.

You try to shuffle under her

A forty points penalty to Gryffindor!

Did you disable both fetching settings? yes there’s two, one is for “first time” and the other is for “every X minutes” I think.

I’m unsure if it would work but, under the same principle as the pihole, I’m wondering if setting the account’s server domain to localhost would help.

Everyone please report on polygon findings!

Implying? Nah, nah. Just describing History.

Like, come on. I’m a citizen of a country that the US literally coup’d.

I like them as well, in particular the former because it clears ambiguity better when used in a list; I just would like more if there was a oneword.

Oh, varied local interpretations, a pretty fair point. I wish most of them were more consistent tho.

Gotta be honest and admit it took me more than 4 seconds to get it.

Before or after your childhood rival smells ya later?

I’m willing to excuse their faults. They mostly do it out of the consequences of colonialism and cultural appropriation. That’s just as much as saying they do it because of the barrel of a gun.

That said most proposals I’ve seen on the subject are… silly or unwirldy. I’m not gonna call people from the US “estadounidense” (looooong) or “USAmerican” (uppercases) unless they tell me they’re OK with it. I’d be fine with otherwise distinguising eg.: something like “American” vs “Américan”, since English has been fine with diacritics for a good while of centuries already (née, naïve, blasé, etc).

Do you have a good source on that? Every school book and college book I’ve ever checked, plus Encarta and Wikipedia, explicitly state that it is one continent.

America is the whole continent. You guys just fenced the worst part of it.

Terrorism?

Jury nullification!

Everyone has already given their response so there’s nothing really to add other than, well, there’s lots of reasons to justify piracy. Most of them are even provided by the publishers / distributors themselves!

Also it’s weird to browse the top 10 responses or even below, and NOT see this xkcd posted or even linked. What is going on, Lemmy?

Well you are certainly dragging your self.

¿por qué no los dos?

Leopard, meet face.

We’re asking for the systems we actively maintain (often against our will and under threat of homelessness, starvation, and death I remind you) to do anything for us.

WHAT? But the profits!
