Some people have an account on many many many different instances and cross post to them all from different accounts so that when you block their account on one instance you’ll still see the posts from their alts. Could this be part of what you’re seeing?

Sounds like the lyrics to Shipoopi, originally from the “The Music Man”.

Squeeze her once when she isn’t lookin’ If you get a squeeze back, that’s fancy cookin’ Once more for a pepper-upper Never get sore on her way to supper

Her response: “That’s not even a question.”

What are you talking about? The pink one has a line of scary warning symbols including a skull and crossbones just under the word humectant.

We could use something like the international fixed calendar and just make the new year’s day and leap days a day of the week so that the calendar shifts by a day or two every year.

I’m gonna guess that it’s durian ice cream.

That’s basically what these do. What’s the difficulty?

They should be equally acceptable without needing to be sexualized. But even if you like seeing tits, the best way to see other’s is to not be weird, dehumanizing, or non-consenting about it. That’s like the 1 rule of etiquette anyway, try within reason to not make other people uncomfortable.

Sand Hills aren’t very afraid of humans anyway.

Yes, that is the vulnerability that you are exploiting and making worse for an entire family of cranes.

I’ve seen this story before. It usually ends in tragedy for the cranes. You’ve likely already seen the results with the loss of their chick. You blame it on a wild animal without proof, but it’s just as likely that the reduction of their fear response to humans (as a direct result of your “kindness”) led to their death.

I disagree on ever single point you’ve said here.

While I envy your ability to get close to wildlife, loosing their fear of humans is really very dangerous for Sand Hill Cranes especially.

Sounds like a skill issue. Good translation is hard and is rarely a literal one to one mapping of syntax and diction. It’s an interpretive art.

Sounds like a skill issue. Bad translations are bad because they don’t find good ways to translate these kinds of things. As you say, translation isn’t just about the words, it’s about cultural context. But, bad translations aren’t inevitable just because good translations are difficult.

I got my first Gmail address through an invite during the beta release in late 2004.

Does it really matter what the machines “think” if they steal water and other resources from poor and vulnerable communities on a scale that makes Nestlé jealous?

I see the irony is lost on you.

That’s like picking fights with strangers to manage your anger.

It only does this for things (usually municipal or government related) with a well defined, continuous, and singluar boundary. Search for nearby Lake Buena Vista, City of Orlando, or Orange County and Google Earth behaves exactly that way. But Disney’s land holdings are likely not completely contiguous.

Logically most people would want to see the boundary of all the Disney things when they search for Disney World, but that’s also not a real region with a well defined simple boundary Google can show and so it doesn’t. Google Earth can represent points (or geolocated 3D buildings that are essentially points), lines (like roads), polygons, and elevation. In fact, you can force Google to do this by collecting the pins of various locations into a list. When you select the list, Google zooms to the level that shows them all. But Google Maps would be the tool to search for “all the Disney properties” or “all the burrito places near me” to get quick and made to order lists like this, Google Earth simply isn’t built to to that.
