It's practical to have just one for internal affairs, and it corresponds to the reality of the (especially North Western) world. English is the diplomatic language now and I can't see a justification for the trouble of maintaining another as official in an organization, even those I like more (German ❤) or speak better (Czech). Yes, the French were "entitled to be entitled" in the 19th century but not really after 1940 and 1958.
They are perfectly capable of understanding "NATO" and "London", just as Czechs are perfectly capable of understanding "Venezia". They can use their own words but no need to shove more than 1 language in people's faces. And yes, I accept that the "1 language" can be French in organizations in mostly-francophonic places like Geneva and Montreal.
Seriously, if you're working with analog electronics, 𝛑=√1̅0̅ is close enough. If you need more precision, use active error correction, and in the 21st century that's easiest to do digitally anyway.

And what? I hate the Frnch language in Frnce, Canada and Switzerland too. All the frog-eating sounds and useless silent letters aside, the reason I hate its place in NATO especially is because the Frnch have requested special treatment despite being surrender-prone traitors who whined and almost left. Unlike Canada and Switzerland, NATO does not have a Frnch-speaking population significant enough to warrant special treatment. They are absolutely capable of understanding "NATO" and "London" like everyone else, they only request "OTAN" and "Londres" underneath because they're whiny removed. You might as well give it to every official language of a NATO country, which is what I did in this graphic I made of a "fair" NATO logo where everyone gets to be equally entitled as the Frnch:

Do you get it now how ridiculous pushing multiple languages in the front can get? I'm all for acceptance of race and culture but huge multinational organizations should either pick one language or bear the difficulty of using all of them.
His body is so fragile his world politics turn around with air pressure changes.
I think @Ulrich@feddit.org heard "energy is power over time", which is correct, but in the duration meaning of "over", not the division one. English is confusing sometimes!
Catbox works for me. I did click the link and was disappointed that the phrase refers to biochemistry and dancing, not optics and spheres.
The thumbnail did not load and I thought photodegradation ball was the object described in the second question on the xkcd's What If? Short Answers page:
What if you shined a flashlight (or a laser) into a sphere made of one-way mirror glass?
It's too long for a comment but I made a Markdown copy in a post here: https://feddit.org/post/10009622
They are removing the "process recordings locally" option, which 0.03% of users had enabled. Not much of a change.
Sure but you're not getting electrons or the resulting "powerful" antioxidation from a "grounding effect". Unless you were previously charged with a positive electrostatic potential, I guess.
Just say "Downvote". We don't do Fr*nch here.
Fucking Fr*nch language polluting so many beautiful countries. The entirety of NATO too.
If the summit is hosted in London, why write "Londres" too? We wouldn't write "Paris/Paříž" just because one idiotic language has a different spelling. Some are even more stupid, such as "Venezia/Benátky". And yes, I'm bashing on my own language but we are not nearly as entitled.
Too bad they won't sell restaurants KOFO, the syrup they mix with water and CO₂ to make Kofola, so they could efficiently transport it to the tap. Yes, the country is small so it's not much of a deal there but there is demand in Czech communities elsewhere, such as Banat (Romania) and a couple US towns.
You don't have to but they're FREE! Why skip on such a deal? /s
one of the most potent antioxidants
The kind of people believing this will also buy cheap electric "air purifiers" from Temu, which actually just generate ozone, one of the most potent oxidants
You can't really replace YouTube's massive library yourself, the best you can do is avoid it but that's hard too. As for the frontend, there is
- NewPipe/Tubular (Android, also supports Peertube, media.ccc.de, SoundCloud, Bandcamp)
- Piped (web, very privacy-friendly)
- Grayjay (Android and desktop, partially open source, support for many services including PeerTube and Odysee, $10 or guilt-tripping infinite free trial)
- Revanced as mentioned above
You're lucky with Gmail. Both my work and school uses Outlook and they ban IMAP, POP3, third-party apps (even those with OAuth2) and also forwarding to another address. So I have to keep another browser or an anonymous window open for one of them, as it takes WAY too long to switch accounts and I'm NOT downloading the official Outlook app.
