When the more logical approach is to simply turn the generic masculine into the generic it’s being used as anyway.
That’s still causing the issue of “man as the default,” now it’s just “we consider women men too.” The more logical way would be to use language akin to “firefighter,” “officer,” or “pig,” all naturally neutral words.
This is not true, as Latin itself carries a neuter form for nouns. Sure, you’d have to gender of the noun, but it has existed for literally 2000 years.
It absolutely can be integrated into the language, it will just sound “weird” for a bit, as it’s taking advantage of an underused, but already existing, part of the language.
Its 1923 and the phonograph has been around for 45 years, and local radio has been around for 3 in some areas, so I think they would know what an entertainment device is. A tracking device, like a radio that tells people where you are without your input. These idea would not go over the heads of any citygoer, though you would struggle with any back country folks.
When you give money to a country that already has funding, they have a habit of reallocating their funds. Also harder to comfortably start an offense when your defenses can be cracked. If you’re still convinced that funding any part of a military doesn’t just make a bigger military, I don’t know what to say.
You’re right, but I think its important to recognize that important distinction, otherwise some, such as myself in the past, have been lead to believe that they had previously released a successful game
I am assuming they will be fixing the memory leak that caused that, as running it on Linux/ Steamdeck causes it to crash at the one hour mark consistently last I played.
Instead it’s an episode thats either racist (early TNG) or ablist… as a trek fan even I recognize these shortcomings. Also I’m pretty sure I remember a transphobic episode? Somewhere in voyager I think…
I was referencing TNG s1e4 (African stereotypes), s1e5 (Ferengi, especially early representation), DS9 s2e06 (ableism, see interview about stereotyping). The Voyager incident I don’t remember well, it may have been just quips about or enforcing gender norms, but I seem remember is being connected to Seven?
I’d also brace for DS9 s6e9 (ableism/neurodivergent stereotyping). Anytime Bashirs background comes up it gets a bit dicey, I usually just skip them as they don’t add anything to the plot or character development that you wouldn’t get from a few sentence synopsis. DS9 is a worthwhile show, as it has wonderful characters with actual, moving, character development, a huge step forward compared to TNG.
I started caring about the environment when I was 7 in the nineties, this isn’t unreasonable for modern kids with their current access to information, this information is everywhere today.
