I know, I was making a joke

Because Queue<T> is typically read “queue of T”

“You’re a Queue of T”? I don’t get it

And they didn’t even hit the guy they believed to be shooting at them. Don’t get me wrong, it’s good that he was not injured for nothing. But with all that blasting, they didn’t even hit their target.

Why did the North Vietnamese fight against the United States? Surely they could not have won?

Why did the Afghani fight against the Soviet Union? There’s no way they could win against a superpower, right?

Why did the US fight against Japan after Pear Harbor? It just meant that more people got killed, both American and Japanese.

Why did the Soviet Union fight against Nazi Germany? It literally was just killing more people, both Soviet and German.

What Russians are doing might or might not be genocide in the strictest sense. But it definitely is cultural genocide, since their goal is to wipe out the Ukrainian identity, language and culture. Russianization is what Russia has always done to other peoples they have subjugated over the centuries.

Pihole and uBlock Origin have different purposes. Pihole blocks ad domains network-wide. uBlock Origin can remove specific elements from specific webpages with surgical precision regardless of the domain the content is served from, so it is a much more precise wide-spectrum content blocker.

In other words, uBlock Origin can block basically everything, but only works in your browser. Pihole blocks fewer things and less precisely but works for all your devices.

if my folks regularly add hours to their day/week to get their job done they’re not good at their job

No

Sometimes, initialism or alphabetism is used to refer to acronyms formed from the string of initials which are usually pronounced as individual letters

It’s a very deliberate phrasing, since not everyone agrees that initialisms are not acronyms.

Personally I think that “ackhually that’s an initialism not an acronym 🤓” is exactly the kind of ultimately irrelevant distinction that internet know-it-alls love to know and point out. I know because I used to be like that too when I was younger.

But often those distinctions are not universally acknowledged or useful in all contexts. Like how strawberries are not scientifically berries, but we still often group them as berries.

Nitpicking word definitions is pointless when the distinction being pointed out is not relevant for the conversation.

Initialisms are a type of acronym. All initialisms are acronyms but not all acronyms are initialisms.

What fell off was a plug filling in an optional emergency exit location. It was a regular row of seats because the plane didn’t have the optional emergency exit installed (it is only required for high density passenger cabin configurations).

Japan has various earthquake notification systems. Tweets are just one more way to get the information to the people on a platform they use.

A 5 second break, while suboptimal, is significantly less suboptimal than having to watch 20+ second ads.

I often watch vods. My favorite streamer’s time zone and streaming schedule mean that I can only catch a couple of hours of the beginning of their stream before going to bed, and I couldn’t regularly watch 8-10 hours of stream in one go anyway, so I watch the vods of the streams I want to see the rest of.

How else can you sell an iPoker 4X?

It’s not the exact same thing, but I’ve definitely been drawn out of what I’m watching because of compression artifacts.

They should of course keep that in mind, but it’s not that “should” should always be followed by a verb directly. The problem is that “of” in this context is a mishearing/spelling of “have”, so they should in this case have written it like that instead.

I believe it is the Vsauce video titled The Banach-Tarski Paradox.
