Steam Powered Frisbee 🥏<p>Question for non-United States folks ... Is the adjective/description "US-American" common, or at least familiar to you? I noticed this caption on <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/wikipedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wikipedia</span></a>. (It's better than "USian," I suppose.)</p><p>Arguments against the U.S. using "American" as its demonym are duly noted, but unpersuasive. Look, no other country's name contains the word America. And every alternative is awkward.</p><p>By the way, do people from South Sudan, the DRC, or Chad criticize the Central African Republic for claiming "Central African" as their demonym? Have they considered "CA-Republican" instead?</p><p><a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/politicalgeography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>politicalgeography</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/demonyms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>demonyms</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/englishusage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>englishusage</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/askfedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>askfedi</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/geography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>geography</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/latinamerica" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>latinamerica</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/americas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>americas</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/africa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>africa</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Americans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Americans</span></a> <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Europe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Europe</span></a></p>

Max Resing<p>Posted about it yesterday already. But it looks like <code>archive.today</code> shows the default page of <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Apache" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Apache</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/webserver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>webserver</span></a> on <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu</span></a>. The alternative domain name <code>archive.is</code> instead redirects with a <code>301 - Moved Permanently</code> to a new domain <code>krola.org</code>, a website apparently comparing pet rabbit species?? It's also interesting, that the redirect to the new domain responds with an <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/HTTP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HTTP</span></a> header <code>server: nginx/1.18 (Ubuntu)</code>. Apparently, the default Apache landing page also returns the same HTTP header information on the server.

Paul Wunderlich<p>Mein Nachbar erzählte mir gerade von einer Studie zu <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Elektroauto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Elektroauto</span></a> s, dass sie bzgl. Umweltauswirkungen erst nach 350.000km mit einem Verbrennerauto gleichziehen würden.
