It’s funny how Dutch doesn’t shy away from loaning French words, despite the difference. Examples are chauffeur, etalage, cadeau, auto and medaille.
I don’t agree that aardappel is hard to pronounce in general if you’re an English speaker though. Check it out: https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/aardappel
I’m enjoying NecroMerger. It has optional ads (no forced short ads either) and the micro transactions are either some general buffs, ad-free version or gems. The gems are dished out royally imo, where I’ve purchased most of the premium currency content by just playing.
Something you can’t play right now but can sign up to play for later: WalkScape. It’s an RPG game in a similar style to RuneScape, but you actually have to walk to craft, skill and walk around the map.
The team has often said that they are against microtransactions and other monetization schemes that currently plague the industry, so they have plans to release a freemium version and a paid version.
You got a top of the line machine coming out and it still uses dynamic resolution for a 2021 game? How much of a scam is this device, lol.
I ain’t shitting on PSSR though, I think that’s neat.
Yup, pommes de terre. In Dutch is “aardappel”, which is more literally earthapple. But I will add, the apple part isn’t referring to the fruit, but means more like “a spherical object”.
Also the French used aardappel to create the word pomme de terre for it in 1716, as they couldn’t pronounce the Dutch word.
They have to use this language to stay out of legal trouble. Saying things you know aren’t true is indeed lying, but you have to prove that they know it’s a lie.
Intention to deceive is the key part, and hard to prove. So journalists play it on the safe side and just keep to the facts: they repeated false claims / statements.
I generally enjoy a Mario Party game but I barely touched the last one. This seems promising though
Judging where they are and how they present themselves, it looks like they are just trying to be a troll
I guess I should have been more specific, I apologize. What is the relation to the word “mander” and the topic of the instance?
Maybe not the perfect place to ask, but under topic specific instances, mander is highlighted. What topic is this?
Really cool read, thanks for sharing.
You can still do the voting and the sorting without actually showing it publicly. This would make discussions a lot more genuine

Let’s not give Microsoft our clicks, shall we?
Who needs to give their browser access to their camera?
Lmao and I said “that guy”. I blame the low quality picture! XD
That guy looks his parents were Tom Scott and Shayne Topp
It’s a reference to the 100k Trump watch. So still specific to the US
If the topic is repeated a lot, or there’s an ongoing event or incident happening a megathread seems helpful. All the important information and recent developments can be pinned to a single post, instead of having to trawl through each discussion to either help others find information or to get more info yourself.
Communities that are huge might deploy these more often for lower scale events, as I can imagine the umpteenth thread about some change in a video game being stupid can cause the rest of the community to start disengaging, which is something you want to collectively avoid.
If it was a bug, why did he delete his post?
Ah I should have checked that, yeah. That will bump up the average by quite a bit. Thanks for the logic to my conspiracies, I should have known better
