Yeah, there’s this stereotype that professional/qualified linguistics are like super prescriptive but in reality most either don’t give a shit or are interested in informal language

in the prehistoric times. straight up “decomposing it”. and by “it”, haha, well. let’s justr say. My organits material

idk why there are so many images of the flag of china photoshopped onto computer chips but I find the trend strangely funny

I’ve also noticed it’s becoming more common to call desktop PCs laptops, interesting linguistic shift

I guess it helps I live at a higher latitude where summer isn’t as hot (although it’s getting hotter every year)

I’ve used nushell for several months, and it really is an amazing shell

It feels more like an actual language than arcane runes, and I can easily makes chains and pipelines and things that would be difficult in bash

Additionally, it makes a pretty good scripting language

Summer better because it’s not depressing

I wonder if people who actually have 6 fingers per hand (polydactyly) have any problems with it, like do people say their pictures are AI generated

EXACTLY this is what I’m thinking

I can understand using formal language in formal places but lemmy generally isn’t super formal

I think with the rise of the internet informal writing has gotten significantly more common, which is leading to changes in the written language

For a long time stuff like slang has generally been limited to speech, transcriptions of speech and quotations, but with messaging and internet, it’s common to write in the same register as you speak

Lemmy is an informal place, if people understand you fine it’s fine

What do you like actually get out of following rules if they don’t increase understandability

Aren’t chains only used by railworkers?

ADB loopback apps already exist, such as Shizuku

There are already android apps that allow you to ADB into your own phone without root, so you could VERY EASILY just make an app store that utilises that, you only need to install the app from desktop once

obviously the correct version is “yous” smh

While the transfer of power itself was fine and legal, didn’t they break the basic law they put in by violating people’s rights and freedoms? I do agree that it’s worded badly though
