Why is it called “hate” crime

Edit: im not sure what warning i should add to make it clear my question was an actual question instead of “an attempt to derail the debate” or whatever people said. Jesus fk people are reactive

No. Way more things. Submarine, subtitles, suburbs, subscriber.

So people need to copy other people’s usage for it to be justified? What kind of dumb warped logic is that. It makes sense on its own. How hard is that to get

fine, I removed the insult.

sub is used as a noun countless times. Why’d you bother being the language police anyway. People get what you mean, so it’s fine anyway

doesn’t necessarily need be a part of another word, can also be used as a noun on its own, just as part of a bigger whole. If it necessarily needs to be a prefix, think of subpage.

Why’d I need to have heard it in order to use it. But yes, I heard people use it on lemmy to refer to communities

Really missed the joke on this one then

Sub cannot refer to subreddit outside the context of reddit. You say it can only be used exclusively for one thing only and disregard its general definition as a prefix. That’s like claiming sub cannot refer to a submarine in a marine context because “it’s already short for subreddit”

Didnt Libre use to be free or am I hallucinating?

Aha. Semi good point. But sub is a much more general word. See other comment

Removed by mod

But I didn’t expect it to have very localized news either

What do you have against calling it a sub? Yeah, that’s what I said, non world news, whats wrong with you mate

Has this sub always been non world news or what

That’s the people

Why is /mnt a “temporary” mounting point? I alwags put my permanent ones there. I’d say /media is temporary…

Sadly I don’t remember. Sometimes it comes preinstalled, sometimes not, depending on OS or something. (Maybe Manjaro gnome). I could copy and paste inside of vim, but not to/from outside vim.

So I need to dive into the manual to do something as basic and universal as “copy and paste”? Why not make it Ctrl+shift+c or have it shown in the info text when pressing this almost universally accepted keypairs? Or at least make it somewhat similar to this. I find it bonkers why some programs decide to just have radically different shortcuts or defaults, the complete opposite of what feels intuitive. Same with the design of some doors that need actual SIGNS on them to tell you which direction they open. Just bad design choice.

Edit: just remembered. Same story with tmux. Want to copy something? Surprise, it’s not anything you expect it to be. Some ctrl+b + [ or some shit
