Minimising is what should be done in situations like this. Perfect is the enemy of good.

You can come a complaint of inaccuracy on the BBC website. If you have the time to do so, do so. Stating they were antisemitic is slander and misinformed.

Proper grammar means shit all in English, unless you’re worrying for a specific style, in which you follow the grammar rules for that style.

Standard English has such a long list of weird and contradictory rules with nonsensical exceptions, that in every day English, getting your point across in communication is better than trying to follow some more arbitrary rules.

Which become even more arbitrary as English becomes more and more a melting pot of multicultural idioms and slang. Although I’m saying that as if that’s a new thing, but it does feel like a recent thing to be taught that side of English rather than just “The Queen’s(/King’s) English” as the style to strive for in writing and formal communication.

I say as long as someone can understand what you’re saying, your English is correct. If it becomes vague due to mishandling of the classic rules of English, then maybe you need to follow them a bit. I don’t have a specific science to this.

Obligatory Lemmy is social media response

Take no heed. Americans only think politics extend as far as their two party system and think it’s binary too.

(I know I’m generalising and not all Americans are as I described here)

I check Reddit like 5-10 minutes a week max and usually only if i land there via searches and just do a quick gloss over anything ive potentially missed. But compare that to the hours a week in habitually using lemmy (for better and/or worse i guess haha)

I used rockbox on a recent holiday for my ipod 6g. It’s always my go to for holidays so i don’t need to use up my phone’s battery

That’s bonkers, in the UK I’m technically disabled because i have tinnitus and ADHD. (I still work like anyone else, but I have protected rights because of my status)

I’m in the same block built boat as you. I always vehemently defend this game since finding out the general gaming public don’t like it.

Same, as a kid i had no idea if the controversy to and was still waiting on a sequel for some time after. I thought it was a novel idea and it was my first proper foray into Norse mythology.

Bit presumptuous to assume I and others are American too like

What’s xenophobic about not agreeing with how a government is running a country, its people and its wars?

The worst part for teams is if you do contract work and need to be a part of multiple teams instances… It’s a MASSIVE fucking pain. Microsoft’s login processes are absolute infuriating and even more so if you have to log in to multiple different accounts that all somehow have the same email address but different tenants without letting you know which account version is for which tenant.

We had to use slack for our internal stuff so we could always be in contact with each other because you could only be signed into one teams instance at a time without jumping through crazy hoops.

I initially wanted us to move to teams but that hurdle stopped us. I’m kinda glad in hindsight.

I didn’t refute that…

I imagine the tyranny was less felt in rural areas where a true sense of community still existed. And id correlate longer living wonders with living in those rural areas too. Wonder if that could be a reason?

I guess like communes right? Now that i say it it sounds stupid just saying it considering the name

We’ve yet to have true communism anywhere in my opinion. The road to communism opens up too many pathways to corruption and tyranny that so far have always been taken advantage of.

I think communism as a concept would be great but I just don’t think true communism is possible, at least not long term anyway.

Maybe somewhere in more ancient times we had something close to it, but I’m currently unaware.
