Island originally didn't have an 's' in it. Language is defined based on use, not origin.
What did the creator of the GIF name them?
Island was originally spelt without an 's'. It was later added as a stylistic choice and is now the "correct" spelling. Language doesn't give a fuck about original intent. If you want to be originalist about it then you need to hie back to corky English
What I DO find embarrassing is when people find out that they’re pronouncing something differently and flat out disagree with the world about its actual pronounciation.
Man, you must be embarrassed all the time when you hear British or American people talk.
Somehow the world can survive and we can understand one another with very different pronunciations of words like "Aluminum", but this... THIS WILL NOT STAND!
Make sure you thank your genie by buying him a jift.
The comment I originally replied to:
They would just have to start DMing us meme images hosted on a server they control, and they’d get a list of IPs. All we’d have to do is look.
So they would send random DMs with pictures, to threaten lawsuits they couldn't enforce, to achieve what exactly?
“Judge, they looked at this publicly accessible image” is hardly evidenceSometimes you don’t have to win a court case legally, to win a court case. Just the harassment of the lawsuit is enough.
That's not a lawsuit they would even attempt, as it would get immediately thrown out.
Unless anyone shared the in image link anywhere else on the internet. "Judge, they looked at this publicly accessible image" is hardly evidence
If I want to buy a game it's super easy to search for it on my choice of digital store front, pay for it and download it.
If I want to watch a show I could do a search for which streaming service it's available on and hope it's one I have an account with, or for the same amount of effort I could do a search for the torrent and be able to watch it if the internet goes down.
"Capitalism and Economic tagged games" is no more political than "War games fest" or "First person shooter fest".
It's just a genre of video games that the sale is focused on.
My car has remote lock and unlock on a FOB, no reason for an app and subscription.
I also get the feeling that the diagnostics are done on board by the car, it's just refusing to give you the information unless you're paying the sub.
