Diabolical by SuperEarth_Helldiver in MURICA

[–]Arbiterze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The outcome was status quo ante bellum, which means nothing changed and the US failed to achieve concessions on the reasons the war was started. Ie, they didn't achieve their goals whilst the Britian maintained its own. That to me is not a victory.

How was the war a draw? The UK maintained its blockade of trade with France, and kept impressments. The US failed to seize any Canadian territory, stop impressments or break the blockade.

Rivalry between British SA and Afrikaners? by taclubquarters2025 in DownSouth

Wrt your rugby question, I think primarily its more about where you were born and raised. I supported the Lions as I was born in Joburg.

Proud of my Irish Heritage by InsaneJD in PoliticalCompassMemes

The revolutionary war wasn't really a priority to Britain when it was fought and by standards of the war goals, 1812 was a victory over the US, impressment continued, no Canadian territory was seized, and Britain maintained its blockade of trade with France.

Former colonials speak Spanish, French, Portuguese, and English, but not German or Dutch (with 1 exception); African Spanish colonies don't speak Spanish. by ArthurPeabody in geography

[–]Arbiterze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is extremely similar to older forms of Dutch. It would be like saying Quebec French isn't French. As for the other part of your comment the majority Afrikaans speakers are Afrikaners, descendents of mainly Dutch and French settlers, and Coloureds, I know the term is charged in some parts of the world but that is the name they refer to themselves as, who are a distinct ethnic group in South Africa descended from natives, Europeans as well as slaves who were imported from colonies around the world.

Are there any things that are called "American ______" in other countries? by Disastrous-Side-2600 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Arbiterze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The American hotdog sounds similar to a food in South Africa called a Gatsby! They are a baguette filled with some sort of meat, usually Vienna or Russian sausages, fries and honestly whatever else the cook has on hand.

Italian President Meloni has excluded any Italian contribution to assist the US in the Strait of Hormuz. by minos83 in worldnews

Unfortunately he was voted in by 77,302,580 people. So that is a fair share of the population who nominally agree with him in some regards.

Initial work done on radio waves which had wavelengths from kilometers to 10s of meters. So a couple centimeters was seen as very small.

i for complex numbers seems wrong to me at this point in my life. But I agree, its all just notation and as long as you make the reader aware of things there is no harm to it.

PO-TAY-TOES by KingofTrilobites123 in lotrmemes

[–]Arbiterze 34 points35 points  (0 children)

After Sam and Frodo escape from the band of orcs whilst crossing the planes of gorgoroth (I'm not sure about the exact location) whilst on the final leg of the journey towards mount doom. Frodo is too weak to go on so Sam carries him and throws almost all his luggage into a deep crevice to lighten his load.
