More like [ˈd̪ät̪ä], no long vowel.
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.
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.
Obsidian spotted, based check passed
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?
Can you explain a bit more, if you don’t mind? From what I’ve read not being able to port forward can decrease the number of connections you can make while torrenting (i.e. slower down-/upload), but I don’t see why this would cause IP leaks assuming your torrent client is configured to only use VPN connections. I’ve never used it personally. Not trying to be obtuse or anything, I’m just a bit confused and very sceptical in terms of alternatives because I’m not very serious in terms of torrenting and would be hesitant to change my trust.
I use CachyOS and it works great for my gaming needs. I use a PS4 controller on it just fine, no clue about the newer XBOX controllers, but I don’t see why they wouldn’t.
