Someone once told me to that words for things that are not traded across linguistic borders exhibit more linguistic diversity (as in, neighbouring countries use completely different words that share no common etymological roots etc.). Butterfly is one key example.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do stores use bank account info to analyze shopping patterns?
6·2 years agoDoes that mean that anonymous loyalty cards don’t really add any extra tracking capabilities?
Then what is the benefit for retailers? That some people don’t use those cards and are thus paying too much?

2·2 years agoThanks. The tall ships look amazing.
I don’t understand why there arent more commercial options around. Aren’t there armies of rich tourists and digital nomads struggling with their CO2 footprints?
Wouldnt it be possible to have WiFi on such tall ships? Wouldnt it be possible for people to work online for some weeks?

3·2 years agoInteresting, thanks. What does “fulltime liveaboard crusier” mean? You spend your days sailing the ocean? In sailing boats?

2·2 years agoThose are regular cruise ships, right? Yeah no, not interested in that either. Those are incredibly polluting and wasteful things.

11·2 years agoNo, I basically mean a sailing ship. A ship with sails. I’m curious about the possibilities to cross the Atlantic with no/low CO2 emissions. I have adjusted the title to make this clearer!
It’s sad that soon (or actually already now) we won’t be able to (easily?) distinguish amazing photos like this from fake AI ones.

That’s very cool. How does that compare to https://e.foundation/e-os/ ? (That’s what I’m currently running on my phone).
