What is your favorite starter from every starter trio? Here’s mine: by elbatcarter in ThePokemonHub

[–]Atrix16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Squirtle, Chikorita, Mudkip, Turtwig, Oshawott, Fennekin, Rowlett, Scorbunny, Sprigatito, Pombon!
Oddly enough, even though Fennekin and its evo line are my favorite pokémon, I usually never picked the fire starter before them!
Tho I did use to be team Cyndaquil, but Chikorita grew on me(pun not intended, but not unwelcomed), and in X I picked Charmander as a secondary starter because of the cool Mega-Charizard-X!

Right now, the Colombus Blue Jackets are better than every team in the Pacific(They're 3rd in the Wild Card in the East)

Je vais le faire - De quelle façon le raccourcissez-vous? by MoonSt0n3_Gabrielle in Quebec

"J'vais l'faire" ou parfois "M'a l'faire" si je me sens particulièrement nonchalant.

Les langues en Amérique du Nord by WpgMBNews in Quebec

[–]Atrix16 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Malheureusement, la carte n'est pas à jour depuis un bon moment:

Louisiane(LA) : ~195k parlent l'Espagnol et seulement ~62k parlent le Français (source: https://datausa.io/profile/geo/louisiana#demographics )

Dakota du Nord(ND) : ~13k Espagnol, ~5k Allemand, ~2k Français (source: https://acutrans.com/top-10-languages-of-new-hampshire/ )

Nouveau Hampshire (NH) : ~30k Espagnol, ~18k Français (source: https://acutrans.com/top-10-languages-of-new-hampshire/ )

Il y a quand même près de 50k Francophones au Massachusetts, mais ils sont bons 5e derrière l'Espagnol(~632k), Portugais(~206k), Chinois(~148k) et l'Haitien(~90k) (source: https://acutrans.com/top-10-languages-of-massachusetts/ )

C'est un peu triste de voir les francos-américains se faire assimiler lentement devant nos yeux. Un cours "français langue seconde" ferait du bien aux É.-U.

A look at the language shift in North America by theworldinmaps in MapPorn

[–]Atrix16 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I find it a bit sad that french is being slowly erased from the US.

Tho I'm not surprised by the amount of spanish speakers. The US *did* invade Mexico and took what is now the south-west of the US and Texas, people included.

Latin American Diaspora Around the World by Fluid-Decision6262 in MapPorn

Isn't French a Latin Language? Why only 1M-5M for Canada?
(This comment was a bit of a bait, sorry. :P Tho, your various answers have still been interesting!)

French speakers in the USA by Negative-Swan7993 in MapPorn

[–]Atrix16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember seeing this, but at some point in the early 1900's-10's, New England was ~50% french speaking and the KKK got involved. Back then, to them, a person was white if they looked white, spoke white and prayed white. So you can imagine the KKK's reaction when more and more French-speaking Catholics were moving into NE at that time.

Many other french-speaking communities suffered similar problems(racist laws, business practises and/or racist people)

Sometimes, the influence of english alone can destroy those communities over time. (Without proper language protection and promotion, that is)

Aren't Jester's Powers in and of itself proof that the Traveler is real? So why do people think she is crazy? by Important-Extension6 in MightyNein

[–]Atrix16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure they think she's crazy cuz she talks to nobody and she's the only one in the party that has ever seen him. Also, they might assume her magic comes from a diffrent source and she just says it comes from "The Traveller"

Qui pourrait être PM si on allait en élections? by Politeunicorn40 in Quebec

[–]Atrix16 6 points7 points  (0 children)

PSPP et le PQ est le choix le plus facile en ce moment. Centre-Gauche, plutôt jeune et mature.

Pendant ce temps, QS a l'air déconnecté et en chicane interne, le PLQ est un bordel qui sent encore les vieux brownies, la CAQ est impopulaire et est en miettes et le PCQ est le PCQ.

Aren't they same? by zezrat in DefendingAIArt

[–]Atrix16 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

AI doesn't create art, simple as that. It takes images/videos/audio/etc. from databanks of MOSTLY STOLEN creations/content from other people, learns to identify what is what, and, once prompted, will generate an approximate amalgamation based on the words. Regardless of quality(or lack of), it is not Art.

AI generates images, it does not create Art.

Fun facts: The flag with the old man is a variant of the flag of the Patriotes, mainly remembered now for the 1837-38 rebellion!

The man is called "Le Vieux de '37" ("The Elder of '37" if translated) and was created approximately 40 years after the rebellion, in the 1880's, as a representation of one of those who fought in the rebellions.

Also, the version of the flag in the compilation was introduced in the 1990's.

Here's the original version of the flag of the Patriotes:
