Rudee@lemmy.mlto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do Americanized names of places etc exist?1·1 month agoI think in this case, it’s the proper nouns that should be used. If we learned it as Zhōnghuá Rénmín Gònghèguò (or at least whichever part of that translates to “China”), it wouldn’t be too bad. There’s not much point in also using the Cantonese versions of “country”, “language”, etc., since most languages have their own analogue for these concepts

Rudee@lemmy.mlto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are people from Moscow and Versailles called?3·2 months agoA demonym is a noun that specifically refers to a person from a particular location; you can’t use it as an adjective.
So in your second list, a school can’t be a Muscovite, since it isn’t a person. You could have met a Muscovite at the school in Moscow.
You would just say that you dated a Londoner. You would then use an adjective to describe the Londoner further (a female Londoner) or make the sentence longer and a bit clunkier IMO (a Londoner who was a woman)
Rudee@lemmy.mlto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What if Apple / other brands sold desktop chips?16·2 months agoThe Exynos, M series, and Qualcomm chips are all ARM architecture, as opposed to the AMD and Intel CPUs, which are x86.
Because of this, the majority of software wouldn’t natively work on them. Apple has obviously developed versions of many programs that function on their laptops, and could extend the same treatment to the hypothetical desktop product. The other chip companies do not have this benefit, and would have to develop supported software from the ground up

TIL meiosis gone wrong can cause a cumshot to give you cancer.
Thanks, internet stranger!
Normally no, since one gonosome comes from each parent: The mother (XX) and the father (XY).
If somehow a series of unfortunate meioses occurred to create a zygote that had two Y chromosomes and no X chromosome, the foetus would absolutely not be viable, since the X chromosome contains many essential genes, while the Y chromosome is a truncated version that has less than half the information
Rudee@lemmy.mlto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•are terfs actual feminists or do most transphobic women just call themselves that?10·3 months agoStep 1: Write “facts” and “logic” on your bullets Step 2: Apply said bullets to the nazi with an appropriate applicator
With this simple two-step method, the nazi will be cured of their misanthropic beliefs
Thank you for placing the thought of a 2 metre long Tyrannosaurus corkscrew cock
Supervillain origin story if I’ve ever heard one
So we can fix that row:
- Schrödinger’s Gun : The gun is both loaded and empty. Reality will converge onto the “truth” only when it is fired.
- Schrödinger’s razor : The box contains both the solution to your problem and a means to make that problem much worse.
- Schrödinger’s law : The future is both in a state where things go right, and in one where they go wrong.

You can choose to escape with Ralof and later join the Legion. I think there’s even some special dialogue when he recognises you during the fighting
Just imagine the diversity hire points for having a massive insect as an employee!
