In Korean (and I think some Chinese/Japanese keyboards) you can “build” the character, from building blocks like this

I’d say you’re not building the character, but typing in the characters one by one.

집, as you know from typing it, is three characters in one. All three components are distinct. They can’t stand alone, but that’s not much different than “c” not really being able to stand alone in English. (If we refer to the letter C, we often capitalize it)

In Japanese, people can easily type in Hiragana (their “alphabet”), and the Kanji can be suggested like with autocorrect. The sound is the same, but the visual is different.

Chinese is a different beast because they don’t have an “alphabet” of “letters” the ways that Korean and Japanese do.

(They’re not “alphabets”, but they do have elements that are much closer to letters than Chinese does)

So… it’s looking like OP is the dumb one, huh? Lol

My brother tried before, but Mouse Trap seems to kind of suck as a game.

I didn’t know Operation has cards…

Does it have a brake petal?

The strongest part of a flower!

I dunno, maybe on average.

When I was unemployed for a bit between contracts, my wife made all the income and I paid for what I could with my emergency fund. (Everything worked out fine)

I did basically all the chores, cooking, cleaning, shopping, etc. in addition to looking for work and working on “side-hustles”.

She wishes that she made enough money so that we could hit that dual-income level alone and I could become a house husband for her, lmao

And hey, if she could make enough money on her own, I’d love that! Lol

Nailed it. It’s ridiculous. I’ve sent in multiple complaints, and the one time they reply, they sent a generic email back to me addressed to the wrong name.

They’re building alarm fatigue into their population.

(Meanwhile, a spree killer dressed as a cop and actively pulling people over and shooting them to death? Better hope you’re subscribed to the RCMP Twitter page. Smash that Like button if you want to live!)

Yes, it is redundant. The things people can say are not always completely medically accurate.

I’m in a different country entirely, so I imagine we have different standards.

Still, what you said makes sense. There’ve been times when Amber Alerts have been called off in minutes of being pushed, so I’m not sure what happens there.

I’m not aware of everything that goes down in these situations. All I know is that I’ve never been in a situation to report any information to police every single time I’ve gotten an Amber Alert, and I want my device to respect my settings…but it doesn’t, unless I “hack” it through adb

I have that setting, but it doesn’t work in my country.

For some stupid reason, they’ve decided to send every time of warning message at the “Presidential Level” that’s supposed to be reserved for crazy life or death kind of stuff.

The settings are in my phone, but can’t actually do anything to the messages coming in.

So I disabled the entire system from my phone and downloaded an app that gives me alerts. Now I’m getting weather alerts again. Haven’t had the opportunity to test whether it’ll alert me to emergencies yet, thankfully. But I’ve turned off Amber Alerts in the app.

You hate the UI, except the UI is actually displaying the image on Lemmy. kbin isn’t showing you the image…sounds like the UI is objectively worse over there.

Also, the UI can be changed through your client app, so Lemmy has that flexibility

They say it does, but my hypothesis is that most Amber Alerts are custody disputes, and the “abductor” returns the child when their phone receives the Amber Alert.

This kind of crap, and the fact that I can’t force the sounds to respect DND in my country, are why I turned off Amber Alerts on my phone through adb (or “hacking”, to the layperson).

The best thing is to come up with something specific. As others are suggesting, offering to make food is probably an easy-to-accept offer.

You’ve got multiple sources now. It’s good to question things, but you might want to start by questioning the things that you’ve previously learned when encountering new information.

As the other commenter said, rhymes would be with visual similarities.

Linguistically, a rhyme is when two words share the same nucleus and coda. In regular terms, that’s the same ending vowel and the consonants that follow it.

In ASL, words aren’t formed exactly the same way, but do have similar components that can be used to make rhymes. Rhyming words could have the same motion, but a different shape, for example. Or the same position, but a different motion.

I don’t actually speak ASL, so I can’t be certain about what looks best as a rhyme, but I understand some of the principles.

I don’t get why that’s not stupid. The result of it certainly is! Haha

I’m not sure why you’re crying, but you’re incorrect.

It is surprising to many people outside of the Deaf Community, but Deaf people can often hear. The Deaf are considered deaf once they have passed a certain decibel (dB) hearing loss. Many people who are profoundly deaf can still hear planes, dogs barking, etc. Hearing a sound does not mean that Deaf people can understand speech. A person with a significant hearing loss generally has difficulty or inability to hear speech even when aided.

As well, people with cochlear implants are (generally?) also Deaf, but with the implant, they can hear.

Some Deaf people can still hear, in which case rhymes would make sense.

Someone who’s never heard before probably wouldn’t get rhymes in English. But then again, someone who speaks English probably wouldn’t get rhymes in ASL.

People who can hear would have an advantage though in that they’d be able to learn ASL and pick up on wordplay (like “rhyming”) that’s used in ASL. Unless a Deaf person becomes Hearing, they may never be able to experience rhymes in spoken English.

… it’d be easier if our spelling wasn’t so darned stupid, lol

“I feared for my life!”
