It is, but I have no idea what to look for or when. OP should know if they know why it was removed

How do you know the reason for the removal? Is there a modlog entry we can look at?

The first two principles for virtual currencies that they have listed are “Price indication should be clear and transparent” and “Practices obscuring the cost of in-game digital content and services should be avoided”, so if EVE is honest and up front about it then it should be fine

I think the title means that the re-posted post is the most-opvoted post of all time on lemmy. It is the top of all time on lemm.ee, on lemmy.world it’s a can of beans, and on my home instance kbin.earth it’s a news article

That’s kind of them! But you will probably need to replace that car in the future

I’m not trying to tell you that you absolutely must learn manual. Whether or not it makes sense to do so basically just depends on your personal circumstances. I learned manual, but I live in a country in which automatic gearboxes were pretty rare until quite recently and I enjoy driving (much as I support replacing most driving with public transport). I just wanted to bring up the second hand market as something to consider

One other thing to add that I don’t see mentioned yet: if you can drive a manual, you have more options when buying second-hand cars. How many more options will vary depending on where you are, but if cost is a significant concern then it might let you get a much better deal

Yes. You might have a version of it in which every group gets one representative, whether it’s “people who have visited Vietnam at least once” with 0.5% of the population or “customer service workers” with 20% of the population

I find the concept interesting, but I recognise that my own motivation and knowledge of linguistics are significantly short of where they would need to be to make a conlang myself. I have played around with around with VulgarLang a fair bit, which allows me to fake a conlang to my design juuuust enough to do the job for the purposes of tabletop RPGs and such.

Does Silbo Gomero qualify as a conlang? It was made by adapting a way to speak the Guanche language through whistling into Spanish, but I’m not clear enough on the origins of it to know how “constructed” it is. I suppose it can also be considered to just be a version of Spanish. If it does count, it’s my favourite

Well that does make it quite regrettable for most people, I suppose

Excuse you, this isn’t unconventional at all, 69,000,000 Brits do it every morning

Gallium? It’s solid at room temperature, but your own body heat will melt it, so you lie down on a solid block of metal and then slowly sink into a melting puddle in the middle of it. It’s non-toxic and six times denser than water so you’d be really floaty on it too

The biggest ones are about the size of teff grains or fine couscous, which is more like sand than a fine powder

Ahh my mistake, you’re right

Ehhh there’s not no interaction though, as .ml has them all federated and quite a lot of posts are there

I was misremembering, see below

Yeah good call. I kinda forget he exists and then once every six months he pops up to deliver three hours of perfect storytelling

VaatiVidya (FromSoft game lore videos) and Voices of the Past (narration of primary historical sources) for sure.

Ehhhhh we Scots should probably not argue too hard. Unlike the other two we joined mostly-voluntarily and were doing our own small scale empire thing beforehand as well. We were rubbish at it, but I don’t think there are sympathy points for incompetence. The Welsh and Irish definitely got dragged along wthout a say though
