or cutting Brazil in half at the Amazon

Yeah, that's a really bad example.

But also, South America has a lot of borders in rivers that cut intermingled populations. The difference is that we were the ones that drew them (or asked some uninvolved 3rd party to draw them).

Well, yeah, they conquered the entire peninsula through a series of defensive wars. Why are you even asking?

Nah. Get on with times and launch them through a proper rail-gun...

Whence why most corporations out there have almost lethal levels of auto-immune diseases.

Well, the UUIDs for almost everything we use are galaxy-scale already. Astronomers just need to up those random letters a bit.

Just to say, but forex deflation is perfectly compatible with domestic inflation in any country.

Who had "crippling deflation on the international exchange markets" in their 2026 bingo cards?

Also, when does this year end? It feels like it has been going on for a decade!

There were 7 in hospitals this morning.

They were concentrated around a lightning rod. I'm really divided between thinking that those rods should be signaled, or that it's bad to train people to expect their hand held if they spend their time in open high plains during thunderstorms...

Also, I can't understand why people were in that place exactly, and what (or whether) the organizers were thinking.

And the government declaring that illness is a reason to miss work.

Portuguese: "carangueijo" vs. "sirí"

Apparently, the later are a single family:

The first is a very general name. But AFAIK, people eat those:

As a developer that learned it once, a long time ago, naturally I sign to the pledge...

I have some doubts if I should mark it NSFW.

 

All those student protests on the US seem to be about stopping their universities from supporting the Israel government. But supporting a foreign government is not a normal thing for a university to do, why do they do it?

Is there some educational or research resource they get?

 

The links like !NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world.

I have had a pretty bad time making those work. I have tried searching for them at the communities page, and removing the exclamation mark and pasting them on my instance (lemmy.world/c/NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world).

Some times one of those works, other times my instance finds nothing. And if I go directly to the home instance of the community, it doesn't bring my login.

What is the recommended way to use those?
