Can they teach the adults as well?

China won’t attack Russia. They’ll simply start moving there and gaslight that it’s Chinese land.

Is there any historical significance behind the “River to the sea” reference?

Edit:

“Between the river and the sea” is a fragment from a slogan used since the 1960s by an array of activists with different agendas. It has a range of interpretations around the world, from the genocidal to the democratic.”

”The full saying is a reference to land between the Jordan River to the east and the Mediterranean Sea to the west, encompassing Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories.

Websites and articles that have nothing to do with search or Google have to be designed specifically for Google’s search algorithm. I think that’s pretty crazy.

Yeah, I added 2FA. I will try disabling it to see if anything changes.

It’s been a month since I’ve been able to post anything from my lemmy.world account using any app.

Huh, I looked that up and still messed it up. I’m terrible with European geopolitics…

I would honestly laugh if someone slipped up and called the states Canada. If they called it something like “Trump land”, I might actually get properly annoyed. But there’s no way that would have been a slip up, so I think my reaction would be justified.

It was sincere. I’m American, and the US didn’t officially adopt the “Czechia” name until 2021. The only reason I knew about it was because I noticed the name on Apple Maps (which apparently added it in 2020) and asked a European friend about it. I literally told my mother and sister about it a month ago and they had no idea.

I have no idea why “Czechoslovakia” often remains in the mindshare of Americans but I’d guess it’s to do with WWII in history books, and the fact that Czechia is rarely ever a topic of conversation. "Czechoslovakia” was apparently dropped in the 1940s. Recent enough that people’s grandparents might never have known. Information didn’t flow as fast or freely back then. I was born in the 80s, and I know I had to look up the difference between the Czech Republic and Czechoslovakia at some point.

The announcer guy, I promise it was a slip up and no intent of disrespect. He corrected himself. And in whose interest would it serve to be disrespectful towards Czechia anyway? There’s no incentive, is there?

Why would someone get upset about that? Is it not Czechia now?

Absolutely. I’m not religious, so the hypocrisy stood out to me.

Under catholic grandparents, I was taught that crosses are there to make satan’s minions flee.

What are you talking about? No one called the existence of Firefox into question.

Go to the librewolf shop and walk out in a rain coat.

A more privacy-preserving alternative to tracking does not sound privacy-preserving to me.

Excellently stated.

The internet was so fast you must have missed it.

I would need spreadsheets and slideshow presentations as well.

Betcha one of them is actually working just fine.

Well if she was just looking for any reason to sue, well congrats to her then. She stumbled across a really good one.
