  • Yeah, it's a pretty straight-forward solution. OP should have just used intergenerational wealth to buy politicians and make their preferred substance of entertainment (or coping mechanism) legal. It boggles my mind how so many people ignore obvious solutions like this.

  • What's with the cross?

  • Thank you, this was helpful. I'm also using Pop!_OS, so this reinforces my belief that it's just a graphical issue. I also see this when checking for updates sometimes.

  • Asking the real questions

    Jump

  • Yeah, I've considered a name change myself. Decided not to bother as it would mean every time I need to prove my identity to a government organisation I'd need to provide additional change of name documentation.

    Government is hard enough to deal with as it is without adding an extra thing that needs to be assessed.

  • It boggles my mind how so many websites and platforms incorrectly say my e-mail address is 'invalid' because it has an apostrophe in it.

    No. It is NOT invalid. I have been receiving e-mails for years. You just have a shitty developer.

  • Probably some bureaucrat decades ago making an incorrect assumption that passed down through generations. Happened to my family. No Irish roots whatsoever, yet somehow we ended up with the annoying form-breaking apostrophe in our 'legal' name just because it begins with the letter 'o'.

    Jump

  • I reckon this is probably what the issue is. Maybe it's of a device type where an icon wasn't created or where some reference to the icon's image is broken. Thank you.

  • Everything seems to be working fine and it mounts successfully. Thank you for the suggestion.

  • What's with the cross?

  • Thanks for responding, but no, I have 3 devices plugged in at the moment and the icons don't change regardless of which one I have selected. This is the only one with an 'x' icon. It doesn't appear to prevent me from using it, but I'm unsure if it's indicative of an issue with the device itself. Maybe it just means it isn't a recognised device. Kind of wish Nemo had tooltips or something.

  • I used to read Australian news every day. Now I just don't bother. This government just wastes their time on complete and utter nonsense like this while we're in the middle of a housing crisis that they're doing their absolute best to exacerbate.

    I feel like I became dumber just reading this article.

  • Do you use "mould" or "mold"?

    Jump

  • In honesty (my last comment was clearly not legit), you likely do pronounce the 'L'; most accents will include this in my experience.

    Does the tip of your tongue touch the roof of your mouth just on or behind the ridge before your front teeth? If you release your tongue before pronouncing the 'D' is there a release of air? If you do position your tongue here and there is no release of air before pronouncing the 'D' (which does release air), then you are pronouncing the 'L'.

  • Crunchyroll just Committed a Federal Crime.

  • Crunchyroll's (then Funimation) acquisition of Animelab is what led me to stop paying to stream anime.

    Lower quality videos. Harder to navigate. Distracting watermarks on the side of the screen. Blocking VPNs. Ads even though you already pay them.

    I hate that there is so little effort put into preventing monopolies from buying out the competition

    Jump

  • It's pronounced 'moeoueieueld'. You really need to emphasise the 'a' sound to get it right.

  • I hate that that happens

  • Yeah, Chinese is good for these too. The Lion-Eating Poet in the Stone Den is my favourite. The full text in pinyin is:

    Shíshì shīshì Shī Shì, shì shī, shì shí shí shī. Shì shíshí shì shì shì shī. Shí shí, shì shí shī shì shì. Shì shí, shì Shī Shì shì shì. Shì shì shì shí shī, shì shǐ shì, shǐ shì shí shī shìshì. Shì shí shì shí shī shī, shì shíshì. Shíshì shī, Shì shǐ shì shì shíshì. Shíshì shì, Shì shǐ shì shí shì shí shī. Shí shí, shǐ shí shì shí shī shī, shí shí shí shī shī. Shì shì shì shì.

    Edit: The English for anyone interested: In a stone den was a poet called Shi Shi, who was a lion addict and had resolved to eat ten lions. He often went to the market to look for lions. At ten o’clock, ten lions had just arrived at the market. At that time, Shi had just arrived at the market. He saw those ten lions and, using his trusty arrows, caused the ten lions to die. He brought the corpses of the ten lions to the stone den. The stone den was damp. So he asked his servants to wipe it. After wiping the stone den, he tried to eat those ten lions. When he ate, he realized that these ten lions were, in fact, ten stone lion corpses. Try to explain this matter.

  • Israel confirms Hamas leader Sinwar killed by IDF

  • Anyone can be a martyr; all you need to do is believe your cause has more value than your own life. However, we have another word for someone who believes their cause has more value than the lives of innocent bystanders. Yahya Sinwar was a terrorist.

    Sinwar won't be remembered as a martyr, he will be remembered as a selfish fool. There is no doubt in my mind that more Palestinians would be alive today if Yahya Sinwar were never born.

  • This is a fair assessment. I actually like politics, but I have still blocked numerous political communities because the users spam variations of the exact same 2 articles over, and over, and over, and over again.

    It's either going to be:

    1. Trump be stoopid
    2. Israel be bad

    The first few times were interesting, now it's just effing annoying. Blocking these communities has definitely improved my Lemmy experience.
