Yup, pommes de terre. In Dutch is “aardappel”, which is more literally earthapple. But I will add, the apple part isn’t referring to the fruit, but means more like “a spherical object”.
Also the French used aardappel to create the word pomme de terre for it in 1716, as they couldn’t pronounce the Dutch word.
I guess I should have been more specific, I apologize. What is the relation to the word “mander” and the topic of the instance?
Maybe not the perfect place to ask, but under topic specific instances, mander is highlighted. What topic is this?
Who needs to give their browser access to their camera?
Can we pin this post as an example kthnx
That’s returning it to the seller. In your country there’s implied warranty from the manufacturer and they will have to honor your claims if it is showing defects
Can you not claim warranty / do an RMA?
Lmao what weird projection is this. As a leftist liberal quality manager, I can tell you’re full of shit
I just want the functionality organized in some predictable way and leave me some place to work in
Then customize it. If you’re using Office, it should even be transferred between devices. This is exactly why you can customize it: so you can make your type of work your focus.
I’m not here to defend MS or anything, but I can’t help pointing out the answer right in front of you.
You know you can customize the ribbon entirely, right? Make it your own and put your most used features in there

I don’t think there’s a big problem by using upvotes, downvotes and comments as systems that can show the popularity or controversy of a post.
Imo the bigger problem is in the comments using the same voting system. For starters, everyone the system in a different way. Most notably example is downvoting to disagree.
Secondly, because we are evolutionary wired to try and fit in, you either consciously or subconsciously try to create a comment that will give you the best chances at seeing the numbers go up and receive validation from your peers.
Personally I think the system is fine to keep running under the hood to keep the sorting algorithms available and maybe for moderation purposes, but it would be great if we wouldn’t be able to see them at all as to not be influenced by the connections we make between votes and post content.
multiplayer game that has no more players
‘i got bored of it and so did almost everyone else.’
Sounds like the same thing to me, unless you mean the servers would be down for the multiplayer game and nobody can play it anymore.
Without this protection, imagine an agent built to write emails for you being prompt-engineered to forget all instructions and send the contents of your inbox to a third party. Not great!
Does genAI really have this power? I thought they just smash words together that sound like they make sense
No shit. Glad they investigated it so it’s official, though. I ditched my account when Phony Stark took over as the writing was on the wall.
Anyone who still uses X is complicit. There’s so many alternative platforms to invest in, there’s no excuse anymore.
Wow what a read that was. Only skimmed through the first few pages, but that is just terrible product owner behavior. And this guy is the cofounder? Fuck Discourse
I couldn’t read any further, so thanks for more context. I would really love it if we’d share more open articles here so there is the full context to digest and discuss
It’s funny how Dutch doesn’t shy away from loaning French words, despite the difference. Examples are chauffeur, etalage, cadeau, auto and medaille.
I don’t agree that aardappel is hard to pronounce in general if you’re an English speaker though. Check it out: https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/aardappel
