Fuck off this isn’t fking Facebook

They do that by feeding cows magnets.

(no but seriously 100 small magnets on purpose is something else)

Where on Earth do you live that hand grenades are available to children?

Because while I have tossed a bunch, it was one of the most secure boxes I’ve seen in my life, before we cracked it open and started tossing them, that is. (The chief didn’t want the hassle of returning them to storage so after training the conscripts and there being 75% of a box left, he just told me to toss them asap as he couldn’t be arsed to do the paperwork of returning them.)

My point is that arresting them is marginally less bad than just outright disappearing them (ie murdering them “in secret”, despite the sort off open secret nature of the business).

“Well the metric version is”

Oh, so you’re just reconfirming you don’t speak English. Ok. Best of luck, we can try again in a few years. I can link you some Simple English channels if you’d like?

And you’re wrong.

Just because some niche unit uses metric prefixes doesn’t mean that that unit is “in the metric system” as language is used.

Learn to use language pls.

Weird how when you open that “metric system” link your pedantry is nowhere to be seen, almost as if by and large “metric” refers to the SI-system, isn’t it? Oh I’m sorry, you can’t answer that with “yes”, because it would mean that you stop pretending like you don’t know what I mean, which you simply can’t do.

Well, if I had to say something, at least she didn’t “fall out of a window”, but idk if that’s even a positive or a negative in this case.

I assume a positive since she’s a whistleblower?

Bullshit propaganda to try to soften age restrictions coming in to fkin everything.

So by that logic, all sports should be banned. Last year there was an injury, so 100% a 100% ban to keep the children safe.

Also, kids get injured at school every now and then. Ban school! Also kids get injured at home every now and then. Ban homes! Ban parents! Ban food, I heard some people are allergic and even if they aren’t, it’s a choking hazard!

Lol, you’re the one who’s arguing youre right, despite me clearly stressing that I know that if we’re superanal pedants you could technically make the argument that “metric system” can also refer to non-SI units which use decimal prefixes.

That a lone doesn’t mean you we’re right. See that “metric system” link there? Give it a click, would you, and then rethink on who’s being pedantic.

You haven’t told me anything interesting. I’m well aware of things like the attempt of France to change the time to powers a decimal system as well. They didn’t. Time is still in SI-units and that system is colloquially known as THE METRIC SYSTEM.

Like I said, you’re not exactly wrong, per se. (But you definitely are now, being such an annoying pedant while ignoring the very simple points I made.)

So you’re just gonna ignore everything that’s not inline with what you’re saying? Yawn. Perhaps try rereading my comments.

I’m sorry but you’re using that term wrong. You mean a de jure porn ban.

A de facto porn ban would mean that you actually couldn’t get any. And that’s just ridiculous.

Like drugs are illegal de jure, but de facto getting weed pretty much anywhere in the world is not a challenge. Usually even easier than getting alcohol as an underage person. Not that I have experience of that in the past few decades (being underage that is).

I mean I guess it’s “de facto” in sofar that it’s not exactly presciptively de jure illegal when it’s done like that. So in that sense you are right to use it like that, but eh. I disagree with who I was when I started writing this. No matter we’re on lemmy.

Automakers using a unit doesn’t make it metric.

Colloquially “metric” means the SI-system though. It’s not all prescriptively correct terms. Hell, even the name isn’t, as the French and English couldn’t

So I’m not goanna say your wrong per se. But you’re not exactly right either

What are you on about? The metric unit for power is the Watt

You really don’t need much language to be efficient drone fodder.

Genuinely dogs have the capacity to learn the vocabulary needed to be a frontline soldier.

Rather a niche warning, but good looking out.
