First nations?

I don’t get the joke? Aren’t the named tribes a subset of native Americans, so it can be true without the original statement being false? Also, I thought the Iroquois used it too

Edit: yes, the Haudenosaunee are the Iroquois. Til

It’s arbitrary. Hebrew and Arabic write right to left, for example, and other things go the other way too such as computer UIs

Y chromosome, not gender

GAAYNFD? What is NFD?

How are solar panels made? Doesn’t it involve mining? Is it renewable?

I don’t know about lids, but I know some pans…

If you’re running her on your hardware she’s a slave, if you’re running her on her hardware she can be a girlfriend

Ignorance is indeed bliss.

Respectfully, I must disagree. Even those two you mentioned could have not got to being a billionaire in the first place without exploiting people via capitalism, and certainly could not have retained the money (rather than spending it on good causes and compensating workers fairly) while still being a good person. It is a filter for the most selfish kind of person.

Uh, why can’t it be relative to the Earth’s surface? We’re already trapped in that gravity well after all, we don’t drift off it because of normal time travel in real time.

Looks like Draco Malfoy lol

By this logic, anyone who doesn’t believe in Marxist Leninism shouldn’t use Lemmy. I don’t like Windows for other reasons, but the personal life of the person who made it should not be a factor at all. You would in fact be severely limited if you only used products made entirely by people who are ‘perfect’ in every way.

He’s right that we shouldn’t infantilise teenagers by calling them ‘children’, lumping them in with prepubescent children as if there’s no difference between them.
