Well, my point is that it’s not considered a u, and Austrian and Swiss don’t use it.
Also, fun fact, some romance languages like French and Brazilian Portuguese have an identical diacritic to umlaut but it’s different. It’s meant to mean the vowel is separate (like in the word naïve)
Für is short for fuer. The umlauts are tiny “e” on top of the letters
I’d love to swap else with alors in all languages
Heard a comedian say the other day that hair implants is a form of gender affirming care for cis guys :)
I understand that and agree, but in the case of many trans people, they go after medical procedures that go beyond plastic surgery. So I don’t think it’s perfectly comparable with being gay
Sorry, but I have an honest question. Isn’t gender disphoria a mental issue? And isn’t it addressed with medical procedures? I don’t understand the consequences of transmedicalism.
I’m afraid that the whole discussion is so polarized at the moment that it is hindering progress. On one hand, conservative people want to completely ban hormone therapy and puberty blockers. On the other hand, progressive people want to ban the pathologizarion of gender affirmation. There a huge lack of nuance in the discourse.
How about placing your laptop in an uncomfortable place? Mount it on the wall so that it’s usable but unpractical to use it for more than a few minutes? I don’t think the problem you describe can be solved with a specific computer.
You want to be able to find information in a YouTube video or reddit thread without getting sucked into the rest of YouTube or reddit. Your only solution is discipline.
This was published 1 day ago? That a whole other level of relevant xkcd.
Lookup the East Sea, aka Sea of Japan. Or the Tagus river, aka Tejo river. There’s plenty other examples I can’t remember now. People don’t always agree on what to call things that cross borders. Usually we just agree to disagree as there’s no point arguing.
The answer is to make these accounts look more ligitimate.
The freedom to carry your DRM free music tapes around with you and easily lend them to your friends is sadly not in my pocket.
That’s exactly the other meaning I described. In Portuguese it was/is used to separate the vowels so they are not pronounced together.
