Who is using a computer with such fucked up font rendering in 2023?
The CEO of JPEG
If you think this is bad you should look at the Reddit redesign. You can't even read a comment thread without leaving the page.
More 'browses' = more engagement metrics = more $?
They're probably using arch and forgot to install fonts
No, if they're using Arch they would've told us in the OP
I used to use Arch, but now I use opensuse btw

I love this. I recently had someone from Indonesia apologize for their English which, as often is the case was fantastic. I always tell people like that, I know one language, and you know more than one, never apologize for that.
Wasn't there a soccer/football player that called out a crowd for laughing at a fan trying to talk to him in the player's native language?
Cristiano Ronaldo
Most of the time I'd never have known they weren't native English writers if they didn't say so.
The coolest thing about Indonesian is that if that person can speak English, it's possible that they can speak three or more languages, as Indonesian people usually speak Bahasa Indonesia and their local language
Her native tongue was a smaller Chinese dialect. So, yeah she knew 3 or more languages. I think there was a 4th, but I'm forgetting what it was. Probably is Bahasa like you mention.
lol that's good
When I see fucked up English in a post, I'm split between assuming they don't use English as their primary language or that they're just fellow Americans.

You speak english because its the only language you know.
I speak english because its the only language you know.
We re not the same
ya
why ask
...
when can make internet great again
Wouldn't it be more accurate to say the OP speaks English because that's the language the knowledge is stored in?
Language is stored in the balls
No that's pee you idiot
What knowledge¿? If you mean all knowledge, do you think people who don't speak English possess no knowledge¿?
Yes, that's why they are unable to communicate with us.
Wild claim to say that day that people who can't communicate with you possess no knowledge. Does a person who has become dumb due to damage to their vocal cords suddenly lose all their knowledge because they can no longer speak¿?
Also why are they the ones to blame. There is some liability on you as well because if you know their native language, you could speak with them.
I'm guessing they mean that people usually think in their native tongue, so if they are native English speakers, their knowledge is English.
Another guess is that English is often a lingua franca, so society's knowledge is primarily in English.
Beyond that, no clue.
It was obviously about the knowledge that OP was specifically seeking. OP is communicating in English because the knowledge that OP wants is in English. OP could ask for that knowledge in their native language instead, but the knowledge that they specifically want is in English, so it wouldn't help them any.
OP is communicating in English because the knowledge that OP wants is in English.
I disagree. The reason OP asks in English is because the person with the knowledge is only able communicate and transmit that knowledge in English. Knowledge itself has is it restricted to languages. A multi lingual person can express the same fact in several different languages
Isn't most knowledge these days stored in ones and zeros?
You speak binary, my guy?

English evolved as an amalgamation of Germanic and Roman languages which made it easier for western europeans to learn.
I'm pretty sure the popularity of American movies had a huge part in it aswell because that's how myself and most of the people i know learned english.
