Could but probably won’t.

I wonder how much paper you’d have to offset for this to make sense from an eco-friendly standpoint.

Being multilingual and watching American content translated to Spanish is rough. A lot of idioms just don’t translate well but it’s almost as if those interpreting/translating aren’t even trying to sound natural.

My wife, native of Mexico won’t even watch them in Spanish now that she’s pretty fluent in English.

I’m not really sure either. I learned these sounds self-studying Japanese on my own in high school and I don’t consider them especially hard.

It’s probably just that those sounds aren’t used much in English so the first few attempts are going to sound bad.

Putting out an English-only message when one of the killed pilots was a francophone is very insensitive.

Oh, please. I guess everyone at my workplace who doesn’t speak Spanish is an asshole too then since we also employ people that speak it as their first language. 🙄

I’m sorry, I just can’t get on board with this level of thinking.

My mechanic drives an eGolf. If they still sold them here I’d dump the A3 and hop into one.

I’m multilingual and all for people speaking multiple languages, especially here where the CEO could’ve spoken both languages.

I do however think this is incredibly petty. I have to agree with former Alberta Premier Jason Kenney that I’d rather have the CEO focused on safety rather than language lessons.

At some point we need to stop being outraged at such childish issues: why is this even an issue? The actual accident and the (lack of) safety procedures should take precedence.

My Audi is a small punchy A3 with a turbo. First off people driving here in Los Angeles are so distracted with their phones, and when they’re in these large vehicles it’s easy to navigate around them and actually get places quickly.

I really can’t understand why just about everyone here drives those huge cars: they’re slow, they consume a lot of gas (if non-EV) and rarely do you see them actually hauling anything. In fact the real people that need them (landscapers, etc.) are usually driving smaller trucks.

I do this with Alpine Linux on a mini PC. I just got so sick of consumer routers always missing one thing or another.

 
 

Am I the only one that thinks it’s strange that the US hasn’t attacked Mojtaba Khamenei? I thought that they were threatening to remove any leader previously associated with the regime.

Am I missing something?

The Supreme Court ruled Monday for the Trump administration and agreed U.S. immigration agents may stop and detain anyone they suspect is in the U.S. illegally based on little more than working at a car wash, speaking Spanish or having brown skin.

The livestock industry — not just Fairlife — has long portrayed dairy as an essential, wholesome product from cows who just happen to be producing milk on quaint, green pastures. But cows on dairy farms, even when they’re not overtly abused like those seen in undercover investigations into Fairlife, still face severe welfare issues because of the very nature of dairy production.

Today’s cows have been bred to produce far more milk than they naturally would, which greatly taxes their bodies. They’re (artificially) impregnated each year — another physical stressor — to induce milk production. After they give birth, their calves are quickly taken away so that humans can take their mothers’ milk.

Newborn calves are then confined alone in tiny hutches. Females go on to become dairy cows once they’re sexually mature, while the male calves are dehorned and castrated — often without pain relief — and sold off to become veal or beef.

Most dairy cows have little to no access to pasture and spend their lives confined indoors or on dirt feedlots. Naturally, they might live to 15 to 20 years of age, but by 5 or 6 years old, when bodies give out and their milk yield wanes, they’re sent off to slaughter.

Many of these practices have become standard on dairy farms of all sizes — not just on mega dairies. It’s a reality far different from what consumers often see in advertisements and on milk bottles.
