It's called a glottal stop. It's fine to think it's weird as long as your accent doesn't pronounce Ts as Ds, in which case you're the weird one!

I disagree. This is a feature of default Lemmy web UI so it's clearly intentional. I make use of it every day!

Excellent work by whoever did the editing on that trailer

We can rebuild him, we have the technology. But I don't want to spend a lot of money.

The word crap is actually of Middle English origin and predates its application to bodily waste. Its most likely etymological origin is a combination of two older words: the Dutch krappen (to pluck off, cut off, or separate) and the Old French crappe (siftings, waste or rejected matter, from the medieval Latin crappa). In English, it was used to refer to chaff and also to weeds or other rubbish. Its first recorded application to bodily waste, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, appeared in 1846, 10 years after Crapper was born, under a reference to a crapping ken, or a privy, where ken means a house.

I've not read the details for a few years, but I'd guess there isn't because there doesn't need to be for the vast majority of users. Even the few who use desktop mode can manage with flatpaks, the few who can't can use distrobox, etc.

Yeah that's what I meant, if you really want to use pacman or one of the traditional package managers then install another distro
