Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Single English word for dying of thirst, like starvation. Couldn't think of one, how does Exsiccated/Exsiccation sound?
2·11 days agoI like desiccation, it has such a lovely mouth-feel. I was reading an Patrick Obrien book recently, and I think someone was in danger of desiccation.

3·16 days agoI’m not that surprised about Slovakia, they’re drinking Russian disinfo by the gallon.
France being #2 checks out, they have all sorts of dirty shit going on in Africa at all times, and Ukraine has to be competent to fight Russia. Netherlands sort of surprises me, but high education, professionalism, and technology resulting in competence makes sense.

41·1 month agoWhy the fuck is every dystopian industrialist naming their shit after Tolkein? Does an artificial moon designed to fuck the natural order sound like something he would want to endorse?
That’s because it’s propaganda. The person who created the image has a particular point of view and has manipulated what they choose to present to push that view forward.
Whether that view is correct or not is irrelevant to the fact that this is manipulative.
Post more images of things being built! Thanks for having beautiful summer days as the before, and fugly winter as the after to make the difference that much starker, the point of view we’re intended to have after viewing this almost wasn’t clear enough

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton owns 15 properties worth ~$9 million. His official salary is $150,000English

Do not fall into the trap of anthropomorphising Larry Ellison. You need to think of Larry Ellison the way you think of a lawnmower. You don’t anthropomorphize your lawnmower, the lawnmower just mows the lawn, you stick your hand in there and it’ll chop it off, the end. You don’t think ‘oh, the lawnmower hates me’ – lawnmower doesn’t give a shit about you, lawnmower can’t hate you. Don’t anthropomorphize the lawnmower. Don’t fall into that trap about Oracle. — Brian Cantrill (https://youtu.be/-zRN7XLCRhc?t=33m1s)
And
I actually think that it does a dis-service to not go to Nazi allegory because if I don’t use Nazi allegory when referring to Oracle there’s some critical understanding that I have left on the table […] in fact as I have said before I emphatically believe that if you have to explain the Nazis to someone who had never heard of World War 2 but was an Oracle customer there’s a very good chance that you would explain the Nazis in Oracle allegory. — also Brian Cantrill (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79fvDDPaIoY&t=24m)
Her husband:
He was arrested in 1962 after General Ne Win’s 1962 Burmese coup d’état. Sao Kya Seng was last seen being taken into custody at an army checkpoint near Taunggyi.[1][3] It was later revealed that he was killed during his detention that year by the military government, who never admitted responsibility. His wife persistently wrote letters to the Burmese civilian president, Thein Sein, seeking information about Sao Kya Seng. Unfortunately, these letters were consistently ignored.
