To be fair it was a prefix in the Latin word that it’s ultimately derived from. We still treat it a little like a prefix when we use the im- part of the related “import” like a prefix, as we also have “export” and “transport”

Should be exportant, obviously

If cats are any sin, it is pride without a doubt. Hell a specific kind of big cat is already called a pride when they’re in a group

That’s the default “kbin is down” message, I wouldn’t put much stock in the specifics of it

It’s isinglass rather that sulphites that makes a lot of beer and wine non-vegan. It’s a type of collagen made from certain fish (not usually crustaceans, so far as I know) that makes the yeast suspended in the liquid sink and coalesce into a sediment that can be removed. If you try homebrewing you’ll find that your own produce is hazy unless you use isinglass, although it doesn’t significantly change the taste

I’m imagining an alternative version in which Slavoj Zizek completely ignores the fact that he is in the shower and just continues doing his usual thing

At least as recently as 2005, diesel subs were the quieter option. There was that somewhat notorious story of the Swedish one that beat an American carrier group in a wargame because the Americans just couldn’t find it. I’m sure there have been developments in the equipment and methods since then - it was 18 years ago, after all - but it’s still notable enough that the Americans leased the sub from Sweden for a couple of years to practice against it.

That said, the Swedish sub in question was packed with cutting-edge (at the time) stealth features. I suspect North Korea’s fleet is not.
