You fool, you’re only supposed to post things like that on the Warthunder forums!

It’s one of the many often attributed to Winston Churchill, though to my knowledge there’s no actual evidence of him actually saying it and his other writings go against the sentiment. I don’t know who actually did say it first

Where I am, autumn is when the spiders decide they want to be indoors

Not all instances/clients show those display names. I’m on kbin.earth and it doesn’t, I just see the underlying account name. It sounds like you’re seeing the same. But if I go look at Wheelchar’s profile on lemmy.world, which is their instance, it shows both “WheelchairArtist” and “@WheelcharArtist”

I don’t know what the actual terminology here is. The display name is “WheelchairArtist” but the underlying account name - the one that shows up in the URL if you go to their profile - is missing the i. I have no idea if that’s a typo on account creation or something intentional.

The research paper documents how the team’s fabricated cell achieved a power conversion efficiency of over 25% after optimizing oxygen vacancy defects within the tin oxide layer. The cell also demonstrated superior stability compared to traditional perovskite solar cells, as it retained over 95% of its efficiency after 2,000 hours of continuous operation under rigorous test conditions.

2 is normal cut trousers, 1 is low cut. 3 is spider chaps

Ghassan Massoud (the guy that played Saladin in Kingdom of Heaven) would have been perfect

We don’t even use the same type of imperial either

If France could just lie for a few years and say that they’re adopting the British system, it might persuade us to finally metricise properly out of spite and I’d be extremely grateful to them

I do have a 10 L pot, I use it for making stock and beer

I am also definitely not coming into this with any expertise, but reading the linked paper about it looks at least somewhat promising to me. The ingredients are silica (sand) and a couple of cellulose derivatives (cellulose being what plants are mostly made of)

The upcoming Space Marine game might hit the spot, if the previews are anything to go by. 3-player co-op campaign

I don’t know whether she is actually racist herself or not, but she is definitely willing to promote racists like Christopher Rufo and Matt Walsh so long as she sees them as being on her side regarding her hatred of trans people. On that basis I don’t think it much matters what she actually believes, what’s she doing is spreading racism

It looks like the Honda one was actually only in Japan, but if I am reading correctly they still used the standards from the American SAE which had me thinking they did it in more markets. It was 2020 on the Honda Legend that they first did it, vs 2023 on the Mercedes, but Mercedes was indeed the first to actually get it certified in the US

I assume that’s about the self-driving part rather than the EV part. Honda was the first to actually sell something that met the requirements for the (American) Society of Automotive Engineers’ Levels of Driving Automation that counted as the the human in the driver’s seat not driving

Wimbledon promo thing: How do you eat your strawberries? Everyone else: Cream, sugar, cream and sugar, cream Andy Murray: “With my fingers”

Absolute nonsense

some of it is also Mr Dikec’s cat

Imagine if this becomes a trend though. Every decent-sized website has an exclusivity deal with one search engine. At that point either google becomes the only functional search engine because it successfully monopolised too much of the web, or search engines in general become useless becaue every one of them is missing too many websites

To be clear in case I wasn’t before, I agree with you that “cis” is not a bad thing to call someone. I was disagreeing with the logic you supported the point with rather than the actual point itself. Peterson is 100% doing it because he’s a dickhead that wants to weaponise the language against trans people

Time to revert to the old Latin pronunciation of /kis/ and start calling Peterson specifically “keesgender”
