French people and French-Canadians both use anglicisms, just in different ways.
For example, if we take the sentence “I parked my car in the parking lot for the weekend”, someone from France might say:
J’ai stationné ma voiture dans le parking pendant le weekend
whereas someone from Canada could say
J’ai parké mon char dans le stationnement pour la fin de semaine
Both have influence from English, but in different places. English loanwords in Canada tend to originate from the beginning of the 20th century (a reason why many car-related terms in Canadian French are anglicisms, such as “bumper”) and in France loanwords tend to be a more recent phenomenon.
I’m French-Canadian. My native language is French, I spoke French at home growing up and the entirety of my education was in French.
When I’ve visited Paris, I had people switching to English despite me speaking exclusively in French to them.


IIRC, Spotube streams its music from YouTube.


It’s important to make sure reality is compatible with your hardware.
“Deep down, I want to be a Cambodian police woman. Is that allowed, or am I being unrealistic?”
John Cleese on trans people
(He’s definitely an asshole about more than the EU)
No, my mom taught me we should respect the elderly.


Well, no one ever needs computers either.


I think more cops should commit suicide to be honest.


Trump is literally a WWE Hall of Famer.

My mom did this in high school when a guy who was stalking her threatened to kill himself.
He’s still alive, over thirty years later.


The update from CS:GO to CS2 made the game unplayable on my aging hardware which is the only thing that got me to stop playing.
I’m in a single-player game phase now, and I have to say it’s nice having gaming sessions where I don’t get called every slur imaginable. That being said, Counter-Strike scratches a very specific gaming itch for me, I’ll definitely come crawling back one day.


The testing elements in Portal 2’s maps are technically Turing-complete, and people have made very simple “computers” with them. Here’s a video from 2012 of someone building logic gates.
There’s also VScript which PortalRunner on YouTube used to port an NES emulator and make a web server. Their channel is really good if you like this type of silly hacky fun.


It’s not Nazi unless it’s from the Rhine basin area, otherwise it’s just sparkling genocide.
This is what you’re arguing about. The intent in calling them Nazis isn’t to insinuate they’re members of the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei and no one would assume that’s the intent.
“Nazi” is common parlance as a shorthand for genocidal fascists because the Nazis are by far the most well-known genocidal fascists.
The meaningless semantic argument you’re putting forth is either a useless distraction, or you’re simply purposefully arguing in bad faith to derail the conversation.
That’s what package managers are for, though. Or add the GitHub repo to your RSS reader if you want the details.
Lemmy is a social media, like others have mentioned in this thread I don’t mind this type of post nearly as much if the person posting adds their opinion/analysis/summary.
Also people who commit the crime of being black near police officers.


They do have that for the Steam Deck.


Really hot take here: Super Mario Bros (you didn’t mention it in your list).
For a game from the '80s on the limited hardware available at the time, they really put a lot of work into the mechanics of the platforming. It’s an incredibly responsive game compared to its contemporaries.
I honestly feel that’s less of a diss on the Neo and more of a statement on how overpowered phones are now, especially considering the limitations placed on mobile OSes.
