Because the world is full of contradictions

I use different email accounts on different providers for different purposes. Most purposes, gmail or outlook.com, both of which I’m sure if they do go away, this will be announced well in advance.

Bill Gates has a list of favorite books. Ronald Reagan watched Back to the Future.

absolutely this, here in Austria most of our books are obviously written in German, so many of them have prices for Germany, Austria and sometimes Switzerland on them, but obviously not for other neighboring countries because the books for them are written in Italian, Slovak, etc.

I don’t think so. This is just shitty website design on the part of the website developers. They aren’t links, they are elements with click handlers on them, so the browser doesn’t know what to open.

On some websites it works if you click one part of such an element, eg. the text.

No, you can’t go to real court. You’re actually kinda getting at something more serious: This is true for all crimes. Especially also drug crimes. That is why the prohibition of drugs causes violent crime: the only way to enforce contracts over illegal drugs is through violence.

There’s a Wikipedia section here about one that is not ancient, but relevant to your question about multilingual states: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austro-Hungarian_Army#Linguistics_and_translations

I wrote “at least”.

I am older than OP, but not old enough to remember the 2000 election very much.

US presidential elections have been approximately this way since at least 2016, actually I think this one may have been less crazy than the last two.

you do realize that people from other instances than beehaw can post here too? :D

yup, central European here and I do not own a dryer and am not aware of anybody who does, I use a drying rack.

This wasn’t too hard to find with a web search: https://edition.cnn.com/2024/11/05/politics/can-trump-vote-2024-election/index.html

Realistically… what do you expect to be radically different this time in comparison to the four years Trump has already been president?

How do you define popular? I think it already is reasonably popular, I see enough activity here that it prompts me to comment at least somewhere on most days. I think it’s going to become more popular over time.

The more time passes, the more information can already be found on the web (including forum threads) and the less need there is to post new threads to these kinds of forums.

I can’t blame people given how many parts of the Internet now engage in automated or semi-automated intransparent censorship. Can’t have the general public communicating freely with each other, they might coordinate a revolution or something. So far I trust the fediverse to be relatively immune from that though.

Neither of those statements is universally true. It is a tendency, but not a universal rule.

Mobile internet is newer, less essential to many people, and I think mostly more costly to operate for the ISP per amount of data transferred, so this is why it tends to be the case. But there are unlimited mobile plans and limited home plans too in the world.
