The case of Uralic vs. PBS + PGerm can be explained by interaction, but the Ainu doing the same is interesting.
In the Indo-European family it's mostly the Balto-Slavic and Germanic branches that avoided the original word, *h₂ŕ̥tḱos - the first one replaced it with "honey-eater", the second one as you said with "the brown one" (IIRC it would be *bʰérh₃os or similar)
If *h₂ŕ̥tḱos survived in Germanic it would've become **urght [ɜːt] in English, and probably **Urcht [uɐ̯χt] in German. Not sure in the Slavic languages, but Lithuanian (Baltic) does keep irštvà for "bear den", so the bear itself would be probably **irštas.
I thought you was the more respectful form of thou in singular, and “ye” was the plural form of that. In Ireland you still hear ye used for plural you sometimes.
Originally the difference between ġē→ye→ye and ēow→yow→you wasn't one of number, but of case: you'd use "ye" for the subject, "you" for the subject, regardless of being a plural or a respectful singular. Much like "I" vs. "me". Eventually however "you" displaced "ye" even for the subject role, in most varieties; what you see in Hiberno English is also an innovation, but a different one.
I still get teary when I see cute edits of Himmel and Frieren.
You'd probably cry at my wallpaper, then:
I often call them the "bittersweet ship" - you know it's canon, and you know it'll never happen. With then the author teasing the readers, for example with the ring or... well, ch117-8.
That's why you need truck-kun. Being isekai'd gives you automatic comprehension of all languages spoken in the world.
Undertale taught me how to be evil in RPGs. Without giving you spoilers: it puts that tendency of players of "gotta to see it all!" against their morality.
I noticed it's easier to shift back to the "pink döner" first perception if you hide the top half of the pic.
Mastercard and Visa Under Fire As Petition For Payment Giants To 'Not Police' Legal Content Blows Up
I think this is a good starting point. If Collective Shout can pressure MC/Visa to do it, a bigger group can pressure MC/Visa to not do it.
However, we (people in general) should not fool ourselves that this war is over, or that this is the only thing we should be aiming for. Ultimately, the end goal should be to curtail all this pseudo-legislative power payment processors have; laws, competition, change in the economic system, etc.
To add to that: my ship-of-Theseus computer is probably older than quite a few adult Lemmy users.
All current pieces are relatively new, as last year I felt like splurging and had money to do so. Except the hard disk - it's a few years old, I think.
I remember when I installed the predecessor of my current GPU. I put the computer on the floor, and my nephew was crawling in the way, curious. Nowadays my nephew has a stubby beard, and he's taller than me.
My old case was even older. It had a hole, where I glued cardboard. That hole used to hold a 3½ floppy disk drive. It saw the predecessor of that GPU I mentioned above, that I bought in 2004.
Me. I love this series. Scarlet's personality is so atypical it's refreshing.
