wait re-toots (boosts) on Mastodon are not visible on Firefish?

The “John Smith” in Chinese is 王小明 (pinyin: wang2 xiao3 ming2), the 王 being the family name and 小明 being the given name. The 王 is a very common family name (like Smith), 小, small, is a diminutive prefix often added to nicknames, and 明, bright, is a commonly used character in given name. I should note that this is only used for males and there isn’t really a “Jane Smith” for females.

I’m not colorblind and see 74, but I can see how it can be read as 21. The bottom part of 2 is a less saturated orange.

Well I think if teleporters actually do get invented one day, the law would make the clone legally the same person as the original

Taiwan actually. They banned anything other than Mandarin.

banning local languages was also done by my local government around 50ish years ago. on every school. take a wild guess at where I’m from?

Calm down. All I’m saying is that if the Fediverse wants to succeed and actually beat Reddit, Discord, and Twitter, we need to have more than Linux users (I am too) on our platforms.

A meme about Linux and BSD and all those nerdy things on a general meme subreddit community that has more than 500 upvotes (with 1000 being a really high number of votes)? If this post was back on Reddit, say r/Memes, it would probably only get 100. Lemmy needs to somehow diversify its demographics such that less technical don’t feel as alienated after joining. (To be clear, this is not a criticism on this post.)

I don’t think it is racist. I feel like we have gone a few steps too far trying to associate everything with race. By the way, “hey here’s my theme I just did for my fresh Arch installation” just doesn’t have the same ring to it. About that origins as a racist term thing, like it or not, it’s now the term for the seeds of Oryza sativa, and there isn’t some alternative way of referring to rice. That means it is now widely accepted as a non-racist term.

Hey! I do that too

Wow, now that I think about it, it is quite scary. Hope that most instances stay alive
