Is the Sabbath Sunday? I thought it was Saturday. But regardless, some countries start the week on Sunday.

It’s cursed as heck when we call Saturday and Sunday the weekend.

2015 can be written as Y-2.015E3S4

When would this ever be required, wtf hahaha

I routinely do this in emails and documents. No one has ever questioned me on it because they’re used to it from folder/file names.

Please do join me in slowly changing the world over to year, month, day order.

(Though I prefer the non-standard dots instead of hyphens, as they are non-line-breaking, and allows for hyphens to be used as separators for other parts in a file along with underscores)

YYYY.MM.DD is my fave

I’m glad this meme is known internationally

Is it? Seemed like a dig specifically at the fact that China doesn’t have a true union movement. Not a dog at communism in general.

China isn’t communist, nor very socialist, for that matter.

Capitalism with Chinese characteristics seems more of an apt description.

Pointing out that China is a dictatorship doesn’t mean that socialism is bad.

My least favourite argument is them pointing to the reduction in poverty.

Like, I could say the same for capitalism. Which I won’t because capitalism needs to be abolished, but just “there was a massive reduction in poverty therefore system good” is stupid.

Tankies aren’t socialists in my eyes because socialism necessarily needs to be democratic control by the people.

It’s silly that they don’t just operate from the browser. It’s how I use Patreon on my (admittedly not iPhone) Phone.

They should have just pulled Patreon from the app store.

It’s not like it’s such an impediment to ask users to use their browser.

In an ideal world we would not have monopolies controlling app stores, but I think Patreon is really stupid for not just abandoning the app store.

Don’t let Nintendo see this thread 0_0

Is this the minimum required, or just common?

We have 4 weeks annual leave (not including sick leave and public holidays) and I reckon it’s not enough 🇦🇺

Probably because our union movement has been crushed by years of hostile governments and right wing media monopoly.

This was excellent. Disappointed the YT algorithm doesn’t agree

I assumed it was a second bag.

I miss the days of a skillful photo edit

Ah, right you are. Just not on Voyager

Us Lemmy folks reading these comments from a different reality.

Sounds neat, perhaps I shall move one day.

For now, Voyager app doesn’t support PieFed yet (well, not much).

This whole piece is un-australian for exposing a great Australian past time.

This video should be removed for national security (to protect our fun).

Luckily most visitors to our country won’t see this video ;)

Back in my day, whoops had an h, which was the style at the time.

Edit: english doesn’t have a spelling system. So this is perfectly acceptable

Journalists are the number 1 cause of semantic bleaching it seems

Wait until you hear about How Vodka Ruined Russia

Tankies ought to be frothing at the mouth about alcoholism, since apparently they love Stalin. And Stalin brought back alcoholism to Russia (Not a socialist at all, in my opinion)

(Disclaimer, I’m in general much further left than the YouTube channel Kraut, but he makes some quite well put-together videos)

Dashing through the bush in a rusty Holden ute. Kicking up the dust, esky in the boot. Kelpie by my side, singing Christmas songs, It’s summer time and I am in my singlet, shorts and thongs. Oh

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, Christmas in Australia on a scorching summer’s day, Oh, Jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut. Oh what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden ute.

You can bet your ass foreign spy agencies are laughing their arses off about this as they track whatever targets they like

What’s worse, is this was the plan all along
