  • Senn-torr

    The “taur” is probably the same root as in “Taurus” and "el Toro"¹, which I’ve only ever heard said like torr, so I say it the same. The first part I don’t think is ever said anything other than “senn” right?

    ¹I can’t back that up, since they mean bull not horse and I have no sources. We do see the same root pop up in “Minotaur” from the same language though, and that is a part bull part man.

    Kinda sorta not really? The NixOS config allows you to configure GRUB, too, and doing it like that is pretty safe - plus you can boot into an older iteration and fix your mistakes via the GRUB fallback prompt if need be AFAIK.



  • You may have missed the sort of “inversion” from the irony in the initial comment. The monitoring of the CCP and the love of a woman both have innate levels of “goodness”, and one is very clearly well above the other. The initial comment is funny because it flips that apparent heirarchy on its head. The reply then asserts that, in fact, the two are comparable in “goodness”, which moves the love of a woman “up” towards the “goodness” of the CCP. More simply, saying “You’ve clearly never been married” here implies that, in fact, the love of a woman can compare to the monitoring and scoring of the Chinese government. This is a comparison which paints the love of a woman in a bad light.

    I have no idea if this comment makes sense, and may need a diagram.
