It’s getting ditched from being subject to a vote. It’s looking like they’re trying to use “this one weird trick that the constitution allows as a tool of democracy” to move this to a closed, limited vote, that is expected to pass in complete silence without parliament being allowed to discuss it.

Or anyway that’s the alarmist short of it and it might fall off after all, but we really shouldn’t just presume that it’s done and resolved just because we won’t hear about it again.

Which, coincidentally, is perfectly fitting to describe (make up) a god!

Save ink by removing spaces! Brilliant.

an irrational fear of spaces between words or an allergy to proper kerning

Yeah uh, medieval language was not nearly as entrenched in rules and grammar, and absolutely not set in stone. Things changed from one text to another - even within the same text. The same Song of Roland writes that same name in a few different ways, some with spaces, some without, with different letters.

From the French Wikipedia, count’em :

Carles (vers 1) ou Charles (28, vers 370), Carles li magnes (68, vers 841) ou Charles li magnes (93, vers 1195), traductions de Carolus magnus, mais aussi Carlemagnes (33, vers 430) ou Charlemaignes (138, vers 1842)

I don’t know when that happened for the English language, but Charlemagne (as a single word) is also what the French language calls him, the earliest variations of it appearing in the Song of Roland (11th c.)

The assumption from the people arguing white and gold was that the light was outside, and the dress was under a ceiling and it was darker inside. They would think this was backlit.

Don’t even think of starting FF16 without going through the first 15 20 games in the series (I’m counting 7CC but not 7DC or 7BC) (yes also 4AY)

And when will you admit that you lost?

Yeah, but it’s a cultural niche that’s not known at all over on this side, and it became a meme, while being wrong.

Svp is far too long to say, siouplé is more likely.

Yeah that’s just gonna piss off any French person because we have no idea how that became so popular.

There isn’t a single country on the planet that would lift a toe to force a one state government to give equal rights to Palestinians. No one even does that today for places where there’s already a demand. Mostly because they all know they have their own local movement demanding equal rights and they don’t want other countries to weigh in on that. Everyone’s already stopped caring about UN human rights reports and the likes.

RPCS3 is the name of the emulator. It’s an acronym but I don’t suppose anyone knows or uses it off the top of their head. Like MAME, also an acronym AFAIK (as far as I know), no idea what It means, the acronym is the name of the emulator. So not really initialism.

A French movie did that one. Brice de Nice 3: I broke the 2

Hint: it’s not because of costs that they won’t let you do it.

It’s light side only. Lucas explicitly justified Anakin’s presence by saying it’s because he turned back to the light side at the end, Sith are unable to do that.

You don’t want planet eaters to influence the galaxy after their dea- oops they found other villainous methods anyway. Your barbaric soul reincarnation / cloning vs my righteous light side paradise ghost, etc.

Iran said we’ll put a toll booth, Trump said oh cool let me get in that JoiNT vEntURe, Iran said get fucked, now Trump is upset because he sees money in front of him and he’s not getting a cut.

France already knows that Germany likes to take French rulers and claim them as founders of Germany. See: Charlemagne.

Some games replace it with giant splatters and smears of bird shit. Delightful.

Isn’t that the guy who was in the Cuba flotilla just last week or so?
