"The homeless industry"?

Okay, so you're just stringing together big words to try and sound smarter than you are, because "precursor of spirituality and religion" is a nonsense phrase.

I didn't ask for the dictionary definition, I asked what you meant by using it in the context you used it.

[–] november@lemmy.vg 4 points 2 days ago (5 children)

What do you even mean by "precursor"?

Please tell us which names are "not British names".

you expect them to

No, we're quite used to humans being pieces of shit.

something they're eating

Animals aren't "things".

Good point. People should only advocate for dgoogling on platforms full of people who have already degoogled. It's stupid to try and reach people still using Youtube.

It may not be carbrain so much as shitty car-centric infrastructure.

Guy's an ass, but if this gets people on board with degoogling then good for him.

Depends how busy the federated timeline is on your instance. Often it's just a firehose of bots.

Someone criticising something in 2025 doesn't mean they just figured it out in 2025.

I would have asked this on a math community but I couldn't find an active one.

In a spherical geometry, great circles are "straight lines". As such, a triangle can have two or even three right angles to it.

But what if you go the long way around the back of the sphere? Is that still a triangle?

(Edit:) I guess it's a triangle! Fair enough; I can't think of what else you would call it. Thanks, everyone.

 

My eyes were bigger than my stomach... At least I'll have leftovers.
