Very late response, but I was thinking back to this and realized that, to be pedantic, yeah, female lycanthropes should actually be called wifwolves, or something to that effect; a woman becoming a werewolf would include turning into a man, if the root words are taken literally.
Kinda like how female automatons should technically be gynoids, not androids, because “andro-” means “male” in Greek, like “wer-” in English, but language doesn’t always evolve neatly like that.
Not sure if logging in would “solve” it, but I’ve been unable to watch YouTube videos while on a VPN on desktop with FreeTube and on mobile with LibreTube for a month or so now.
Also, on FreeTube the recommended videos on the sidebar usually include a ton of unrelated news channels. I’ve got so many of them blocked now but they keep showing up.
Considering how much more relevant the Jedi games are, that’s probably more likely, but my first thought was “oh shit, Worf’s got Bastilla’s lightsaber”, ha. Hers was also double-bladed and yellow.
I’ve not played it but Empires of the Undergrowth is an actual ant RTS that came out 2 years ago lol
fwiw not an American thing. I’ve never seen pasta served with meat to the side like that irl.
I also wouldn’t know what it means, but in this case it’s a direct quote from the movie Office Space.
It wasn’t considered as gendered, as referring to humanity as “man” is a holdover from when “man” wasn’t ever gendered; we don’t have any recordings of it specifically referring to males until around 1000 CE.
The old words for male/female were “wer” (see: werewolf) and “wīf”, the latter of which diverged into “wifmann” (“female human”), later “woman”, and “wife”, specifically referring to a married woman. You still see “wife” used without implication of marriage status in words like “midwife”.
Anyway tl;dr “man” historically wasn’t gendered, hence it commonly being used to refer to humanity as a whole even in modern use. Also it more accurately states that no humans have been there before, rather than discounting present natives.
Edit: also, as another comment played on, this was used as wordplay in the Lord of the Rings, in which humanity is referred to as “the race of man”, where a prophecy refers to no man being able to defeat one of the antagonists but doesn’t specify that a woman can’t.
Yes, no, QWERTY; I use the F and J nubs to center my hands but I dont’t keep them in the “correct position” as was taught in my elementary typing class. Regular computer use lends itself to getting good at typing quickly. I only have to look for some special characters that I don’t often use.
I tried starting an audio call (had a telephone icon) yesterday but it turned on my webcam without prompting. Didn’t see a setting for it not to do that, and that’s a wild default.
Yeah, though I can see how it looks like it’s going the other way at first glance, what with the fish facing the wrong direction.
