Like “Usonian”, not like “USonian”, I’d guess? Flat U, non-“yoo”-ed; stress on the O; the “nian” more or less like “nyan” but 'murrically less cute.

But there’s not really another good demonym that’s not an slur. “Estadosunidenses” is too much of a mouthful and “Statesman” has another meaning.
Usonian?
or Germany. And I only identify the latter as such, because of…

I’ll give you one (1) pity point for jumping right to the low hanging tree category for personal attack.
¿Biden competent? He’s probably gonna die of old age by Jan 5, and if not, is going to be ordering who knows what crap with his dementia on Jan 6…
Don’t worry it won’t be a close call. Trump has this one in the pocket unless we change the democratic figurehead for someone who actually has some meat and spine.
Not with that attitude!
I’m already on IRC and XMPP. be the change you want to see.
Same. We should head back to ICQ!
Yeah we only need 2 brainRusts more to start seeing some fun.
Oh, we heard, Rust is the greatest invention since sliced bread. We heard it already. Like 65534 times.
How about a guillotine? Those don’t seem to require a religious belief, only a modicum of trust in the well-studied force of gravity.
“Don O’Evil”
Now that would be the day!
Finally.
Do note the Violent protesters" and “destructors of property” are the zionist infiltrators, not the antigenocide protesters. But Biden is so old, apparently everyone look the same to him.
At the moment I’m testing Hedgedoc, I took a quickie look at haste-server but from what I read it got enshittified a while ago while I was busy not looking at it lol. Anyway I’ve looked at other alternatives from the link and from selfhosting communities and both OpenGist and ExBin are looking at the things for me to try next for comparison. Thanks for the guidance!
So I’m running a Hedgedoc instance this week to test how things are going. Feels like one of the better choices.
Yeah honestly sometimes Dokuwiki feels like it’s the Konami cheat code for “simple good personal website”. I’m like, why would anyone bother with stuff like, dunno, Wordpress, or Github Pages.
My hoster has been so nice to get me access to the docker on-site, so I’m gonna be testing stuff for a few days. I can’t take a look at logseq until the weekend alas, due to work suddenly being work.
Fun that you mention that, I happen to run my personal site, as well as another wiki for my Pokémon-related fanwork, and an internal kb wiki on my job, all on Dokuwiki. Used to advertise the engine more on Reddit back in the day, too. And sure it’s quite lightweight and operable (I can edit articles remotely, manage remotely and do lots of cool stuff). Its just, from my experience so far, while it’s extremely well-suited for the workflow of a wiki, it’s not so much for the “post-it note” workflow, not even with additions like the Blog plugin.
Perhaps I have to yet tune it further. I guess it’s time to Do Science.
A friend got me into Monster Hunter and now I have nearly 5000 hours split across various games, the bastard. I guess I won’t be doing cocaine or gunpla or toy car collecting anytime soon! XD
It’s a really great experience, I often say good MH games (that is, MH games in general: bad games are a rarity in this franchise) bring out my three preferred Ms: music, monsters and marvels, the latter one meaning the landscapes, the maps, the exploration. You haven’t experienced what kind of comfy immersion can game developers go for until you wander about the Sandy Plains at night to bbq up some Aptonoths and Rhenoplos into steak, and you watch the shooting stars in the night sky.
And then you get distracted from the bbq serial griller and you end up with 2x Burnt Meat instead…Started out with 3U. Underwater is great btw, don’t listen to people who say it shouldn’t return. The first time I tried the game I just Didn’t Get It and thought it was not for me… but man the music was so cool (the Sandy Plains battle music!) and the monster designs (Barioth!) insisted that I should make another try. Grabbed it back after a long break, followed the instructions this time, found a weapon that was to my liking (switchaxe, or as we call it, the Swag Axe), and haven’t really stopped much since then. I take good care to backup my saves often as well, juuuuust in case I don’t really like to grind hundreds of hours for the most random rewards on the double. By this point the only gen I have not played is Gen1, I’ve played Dos, FU, Tri, P3rd, 3U (1400 hrs), 4U, XX, Gen, GU (1200 hrs), Rise, Sunbreak and Stories 2 (800 hrs). Nowadays I can sometimes be found on the LanPlay network on MHGU and MHRS, and I’m waiting to get a better computer so I can try Frontier and maybe Iceborne.
Now, everyone has an opinion and so do I, so I’m clear on a number of things. Starting with World the game has casualized so much. Some casualization is fine, as a treat, and I like some QoL such as the tree view for weapon upgrades as much as the next person. But sometimes a game can be casualized to the extreme, to the point even TDS and NCH have taken jabs at it at points, like getting you infinite Ancient Potions, or the loss of most technical inventory management or environment management in Rise. It’d be nice to see Monster Hunter come back to form, with a properly numbered game (Monster Hunter 5, maybe call it “Quinto” or smth!) and fights that are more about besting a monster in its own turf rather than simply hiding under a beast’s legs (or far away at a ledge) and spamming X or R (hey, gunners!) to win.
But the music… oh, the music! And the ambience SFX. Now that has never faltered. Despite its many mishaps, World has some of the best and comfiest music in the series.
