Blame me, and others like me. I wouldn't click

[-] Safipok@lemmy.ml 18 points 7 months ago

True. But, you can do both

[-] rcbrk@lemmy.ml 8 points 7 months ago

What'd be cool is if when you enter a URL the lemmy interface lets the poster choose an image or even cropped region from the linked page.

[-] InputZero@lemmy.ml 6 points 7 months ago

I know an url is grammatically correct, but for whatever reason it doesn't sound right.

[-] tostiman@sh.itjust.works 20 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Is it? I would think it's 'a', not 'an' because it's "a you-are-el" (English is not my native language).

[-] Nelots@lemm.ee 15 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Yup, that's correct. It doesn't matter that it begins with a vowel, what matters is if it sounds like a vowel. Likewise, "an university" and "a hour" are both incorrect.

This is still salvageable by pronouncing it as "an earl".

[-] Nelots@lemm.ee 10 points 7 months ago

Well, I'm sure at least some person out there pronounces it that way, but I've certainly never met one!

[-] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 7 months ago

Try with Europe. Its a European not an European

[-] theonyltruemupf@feddit.de 35 points 7 months ago

I hate, hate hate that english news headlines don't write "and". It's barely longer than a fucking comma, what's the point?

[-] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 15 points 7 months ago

Also When They Capitalize Every God Damn Word Like This!

[-] BetterDev@programming.dev 4 points 7 months ago

Isn't that.. Just like... How you write titles and names?

I think it would look wrong if the title didn't use title casing.

search engine ellipsis

TSA still won't let them through, but the airlines will be more than happy to sell you a small tool kit containing a 6oz ball peen hammer, pop rivet gun, an assortment of rivets, flat & Philips #2 screwdrivers, and a 3m roll of duct tape. They'll be available on the service card for $28 (please make sure you have the latest version of our app, and have a credit card on file!)

Also, they'll be passing along a new Enhanced Egress cabin fee for upgraded deplaning experience.

[-] Hjalamanger@feddit.nu 12 points 7 months ago

Could I also bring THE SHOVEL?

[-] rotopenguin@infosec.pub 6 points 7 months ago

Torque wrenches are still banned, of course. You could really bean somebody with one of those.

[-] PMFL@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

Top, sad but so well put! 🤣
