Wikipedia has /ɥæ̌n/ i.e. the vowel having an “a” sound but “a” as in “cat” rather than “father” – telling English-speakers as this blog does that a sound is halfway between /a/ and /ɛ/ is unnecessary as that’s literally what /æ/ as in is.

Zuck raises an eyebrow and tilts his head. “Your statement is incorrect. I am composed of 24.6 kilograms of tripolymer composites, 11.8 kilograms of molybdenum-cobalt alloys, and 1.3 kilograms of bioplast sheeting. I am not made of steel.”

I agree it’s confusing, but confusing in a way that makes it even less offensive and detractors even less sincere. It’s obvious she’s being sarcastic and the only confusing part is whatever she possibly meant about the election

Journos don’t have a clue what’s going on or what any of this means.

Centralized social media is not sustainable.

Outside of our niche I think users don’t care about this yet but social media companies are aware of it. My only immediate inclination is to compare it to Bluesky which sets the bar very low. I see no reason to suspect Bluesky will federate before Threads does. I’m actually beginning to get extremely doubtful of ATPro’s role in the future of federation but curious about your thoughts on that as someone who understands it far better than I do on a technical level

De Santis has done Trump a big favor

Finally decided today to fediblock mastodon.social because it’s too annoying seeing posts I can’t interact with. I was obviously blocked by some bad-faith pro-war moderator over there. I’ll miss Whitney Webb but that’s about it

This is a thousand-times debunked right-wing talking point used by the state to justify war. Do better, jerk

“Meta’s text-based platform will be decentralized and interoperable with Mastodon, which is built on the ActivityPub protocol.” 🤨

God has liberated Bakhmut from the infidels

You can literally go do that in Ukraine right now

The best episodes of Voyager are the ones when it looks like they’re going to get out of the Delta quadrant but then Gilligan messes it up at the last minute

It’s hit or miss like all Trek, just sleep through any episode with Kazon in it

Never forget that Tucker Carlson had the only show on cable news that actually allowed progressive (i.e. anti-war) activists to appear on American television during the past 6 or 7 years. Anyone superficially associated with the “Left” who praises his dismissal should be reminded of this.

Intelligent critiques of Carlson have always come from the vantage point of co-opted opposition. All but the most ignorant, disingenuous, and dangerously unstable observers will acknowledge that he was himself actually, by any any meaningful remaining use of the term, the most “progressive” voice on cable news.

Do not engage in political debates with people mentally unable or unwilling to process this. Encourage them to find healthier hobbies or stay the hell away from them.

I knew a beautiful woman from there once whose name was Nazgul which I guess is a LOTR villain
