They're supposedly against genocide but that hasn't stopped them from shamelessly supporting one.

Comments like this are so malicious and either delusional or flat out lies. You need to stop.

You literally added nothing to this conversation by making this comment. Some people love to hear themselves talk.

Well well these Arabic speakers Tunisians and Algerians?
As an Algerian, I can confirm that Maltese is surprisingly easy to understand. I was genuinely shocked the first time I heard it because the similarities are so obvious. Many Arabic dialects are also written using the Latin alphabet, especially online and on social media, so the different writing systems aren’t really a barrier at all.
It's not at all far removed from the North African dialects of arabic which is the dialect that it's derived from. Tunisians and Algerians can understand Maltese quite well.

Re:Why most doctors don't wash their hands on Tuesday August 11, 2020 @02:37PM (#24124070)
This is absolutely horse shit. My mom is a provider and has always washed her hands before and after every patient. If they're not there is something very wrong with them.
Guess we found a middle manager.

I spent a little more than two in Berlin last year. I didn't find Germany particularly orderly. Spend an evening in Tegel airport and see what I mean.
I work at a large public University where they're furloughing staff and cutting pay. The ones not furloughed will see a cut in pay between 5-10% depending on salary.

Re:The Reunification of .NET 5 on Tuesday January 14, 2020 @05:54PM (#22050102)
I recently migrated a 25k line library to .netstandard 2.0 so that I can target core 3.0 and go cross platform. It was worth it.
The same thing just happened to me. I scheduled a physical which is considered preventative which means it's free and covers things like the general blood panels..I go in, they order a blood test and a couple weeks later I got a bill for $800. I called the insurance and they said the doctor billed me as a "visit" and not a physical and I would have to call the doctor to have them change the billing code. So I did that but they wouldn't change, they said that because it was my first time at this office that they have a policy that all first appointments are billed as visits. keep in mind that this was stated no where and this was the first I was hearing about it. Anyway they refused to change the billing code and I'm stuck with $800 bill.
My mom is a physician who has treated hepc for years. But the problem these days is convincing insurance companies to pay for the treatment. Unfortunately having the disease isn't enough for them pay. :-/

If you can't afford a proper dev-kit you might be able to find an older switch model that you can exploit, which will allow you to write and run code for it without the need for an official dev kit.
I found a link that isn't bbc if you're interested.

Have you thought about porting this to Nintendo switch? Indie community is huge so many games do well on the platform.
