Mastodon's filters are also applied to alt text images. So as of now if I see someone posting Trump screenshots/commentary/whatever in image form without alt text, I'll mute that person.

Ask me in June 2029 about cleaning up my mute list

From the language learning perspective the name of Gulf of Mexico is interesting.

Most Latin alphabet based languages went with x regardless of pronunciation.

But Estonian and Slovene have hh and h instead of x/ks to preserve the sound as best as they can.

What’s the name for when we do crappy shit it’s ok but when Chinese do it, especially if for cheaper, we are all up in arms and start talking about privacy and shit?

I’m not sure, is it hypocrisy or racism or being a world class moron?

For no reason whatsoever I'd like to remind everyone that there is a category on Wikipedia of Roman emperors killed by Praetorian Guards.

This is not in the context of tomorrow's events, Putin's growing list of casualties or Luigi effect.

Besides @vkc and @thelinuxEXP. No offense to them but having only them in subscriptions is not optimal

I'm looking at the datasets from Czech statistics office and I want to go Hulk on some politicians.

In 2000 there were 5 284 train cars (not engines) and 3 438 870 cars (on roads).

In 2023 there were 2 719 train cars (not engines) and 6 512 774 cars (on roads).

What the hell? Something went terribly wrong.
