There are so many examples in this thread alone as to why this rule doesn’t work.
SCUBA: the U is for “underwater” and the A is for “apparatus”. We don’t pronounce it “SC-uh-B-ahhh”.
JPEG: The P is for “photographic”. We don’t pronounce it “JayFeg”.
LASER: The E is for “emission”. We don’t pronounce it “Lay-See-R”.
RADAR: The second A is for “And” (lol). We don’t pronounce it “Ray-Day-R”.
The easiest “rule” is just the guy who made it up can dictate how they want it spelled and to pronounce. The word is made up anyway, and isn’t subject to rules that actual English words have been subjected to for however long the language evolved.
Say the word “though” in your head. Then add a “t” to it. Would you really argue that “though” and “thought” are pronounced the same simply because they’re the same spelling save for a final “t”?
The easiest “rule” is that the creator can decide how to pronounce and spell it lol. Taking English rules that don’t even apply 100% of the time to its own words and trying to hold made-up words to the same standards just sounds silly to me haha
It is Ramen Nagi! They specialize in a fish broth ramen and it’s pretty good!
I’ve been to that ramen place! Wayne Gretzky’s signature is on one of the walls in that place. The ramen is great too
programming.dev is a great instance for you then!
Oh nice!! When I get back to my PC I’ll check that out
Glad you figured it out!! Update your OP so that people who also have the same confusion can see the answer more easily. All of us reddit refugees need all the help we can get haha
I don’t hate it? If this had ligatures, I would consider actually using it. I use Fira Code Retina for now but I’m always down for more options
You never know!
It definitely can flourish here given the right circumstances. I haven’t pirated anything in a long while, but I love seeing the community doing it’s thing. I’ll definitely be following along
rif and Relay were the two I used depending on how I was feeling that day. Excellent apps. Paid for both and I’ll be sad to see them go.
There was a guy that created a wrapper to allow Reddit clients to support viewing Lemmy content. Would love to see these developers have their apps continue to have life with what seems like a small change
Here is a link to the reddit post. Tried to go to the Lemmy link but Jerboa wouldn’t load it.
Love the Blackwatch kilt
