Your science teacher was wrong, unfortunately. In Classical Latin, datum is pronounced as [ˈd̪ät̪ʊ̃ˑ] “dah-too(m)” and likewise data as [ˈd̪äːt̪ä] [ˈd̪ät̪ä] “dah-tah.”
Not that Latin should really have a say in how we speak English anyhow.
Air Canada should be top 5 imo. I want my three nights in an expinse hotel (the only one with available rooms, at that) reimbursed, goddammit, I don’t care if it was out of your control due to “weather” on the nice, sunny day that my wife was having at my destination.
I might be a little biased…
A hypercorrection based on a misunderstanding of the Latin declension for the word, at that.
Take the red pill, all linguistic categories are equally unreal.
Greatcoats actually work well on a bike when it starts to get pretty cold (ca. -20°C), I have a thick wool one that is Russian navy surplus and I might look like I just biked off of a warship, but it keeps me warm yet also breathes if I get too warm. Also, it’s long but splits down the middle nicely when I straddle my bike.
I haven’t biked in much colder than that, though in the winter it easily gets to -30 to -40 here. I kinda want to try but it’s quite intimidating both in terms of keeping all my extremeties as well as all the ice.
I’ll save everyone the visit to tineye: 
I really don’t understand how people have gone this long without realising that Linus and the company lost any morals they had (if any) a long time ago for the sake of profit. In my opinion Linus is just another greedy capitalist who treats his employees like shit and only cares about profit.
I would’ve expected more people to have at least noticed that the videos are pretty low-quality in terms of actual substance when you look past the professional coat of paint, and it’s been that way for a loooong time.
Pretty blue colour.

I reckon since he mentioned the lack of regional pricing, he’s probably from a developing country where 20 USD is a crazy amount of money for a Lemmy app. Whatever “side” you’re on, I think regional pricing is an extremely reasonable request.
Bet you can fit a hell of a lot of diplococcus in a diplodocus.
Not trying to be just be contrarian for contrarianism’s sake, but it doesn’t look like anything special to me. I’m just having a hard time wrapping my ahead around why anyone would pay for it, leaving charging for it / putting ads and tracking in it in the first place aside.
Someone please correct me if I’m wrong, but does Sync seriously charge to remove ads that they added to browsing Lemmy in the first place? I get charging for Reddit due to the API, but I have a hard time believing the app is that much better than the existing FOSS apps such that the privacy tradeoff with ad trackers and/or the monetary cost worth it for, well, anyone really. Seems kinda scummy and antithetical to the philosophy that drives much of the Fediverse to me, yet I see so many people defending it in a way that reminds me of the rhetoric used to defend Reddit. Seriously, am I just a crazy person?
Same here in Canada, e-transfer with 0 fees is pretty normal.
Here’s an article for those out of the loop.
That’s my B, I was looking at Ecclesiastical Latin for that one :3
Interesting points though, thanks for the elaboration. Shows the layers of silliness that is depending upon other languages for the way we pronounce words.
