Do you have this problem only with “strawberry” or also with “straw” alone? What about other words beginning with str-, like street or straight?
My first language doesn’t have syllable-initial st-, yet pronouncing any of these words is no problem for me at all in English.
As an Esperantist I like the fact that so many FOSS projects have Esperanto-derived names. 👍
And under no circumstances confuse any other Microsoft products with each other, except under confusing circumstances.
meh, we already have an option for the first (KDE Plasma) and for the second (GNOME) as far as I’m concerned, so what else is missing
Yes, you are quite right: I heard about the existence of “Samsung DeX” here first. It’s such an obscure thing that I (a Samsung smartphone user for more than half a decade) hadn’t heard of it before. I had certainly heard of Chrome OS before even though I’ve never used it.
XML is best suited for storing documents, JSON for transmitting application data over networks.
SVG is an example of an excellent use of XML, it doesn’t mean we should use XML for transmitting data from a backend to a frontend.
The term “desktop” has more than one meaning and in the context of which operating systems are used on desktops, it certainly includes laptops. 😉

While true that I am not from the US, I think it was clear from context what I actually meant.
This is a nontrivial legal question.
Of course there needs to be a way for government agents to enforce immigration laws (like all other laws) and also enter private places for that purpose. You don’t have an automatic right to tell them to piss off because you don’t like certain laws being enforced.
What kind of warrant or situation they need exactly, courts may already have decided, or will still decide. It’s obviously legal for government agents to enter homes with certain warrants, and sometimes without warrants; whether the exact thing the linked article is about will or will not be found constitutional, no one here can ELI5 to you with any certainty.
The new platform, W, will require identification and photo validation to ensure that its users are both humans and who they claim to be
apparently we are now supposed to think that that is a good thing, huh
This is probably supposed to be a link to this: https://torrentfreak.com/nvidia-contacted-annas-archive-to-secure-access-to-millions-of-pirated-books/
There are a few communities where that link was posted correctly: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/53133358
Not a new debate at all… https://xkcd.com/1914/ and the context for that was https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/twitter-suspends-verifying-accounts-giving-154625015.html
I agree that if “verification” is going to be a thing, it should only mean the person or organization is who they claim to be, not imply endorsement of any of their activities.
I wonder if you can run Double Commander on ReactOS. I use it on Windows and it seems not to have this “usability issue”, apart from being very convenient in other ways too…
This is from 2021, why post this now…?
There are lobbyists for non-profits (that you can donate to if you agree with their goals) too.
Not really.
Lawmakers in a democracy can’t possibly be experts on all the fields they make laws about. Without any lobbyists at all, they wouldn’t know what kinds of laws any organizations (whether for-profit or not) would like to see passed. This would likely cause worse laws to be passed.
Ultimately lobbying is just (parts of) the population attempting to influence what happens in politics, which is what is supposed to happen in a democracy.
In some cases what you say may be true, but not in all.
I remember reading that the first two don’t allow free discussion about Zionism (one bans a lot of anti-Zionist speech, the other has an explicit rule against all Zionism), so I avoid posting there; I think communities that aren’t specifically ideological should allow a wide range of free speech. The third one is AFAICT better, so are [email protected] and [email protected].
There is also [email protected] for things that have to do with the European Union, which is somewhat different from the continent of Europe. The community this thread is about isn’t explicit whether it is about Europe or the EU.
may I ask what your first language is?
