The people who voted Brexit weren't concerned about their ability to side load apps

[–] [email protected] 21 points 10 months ago

the people who voted brexit werent concerned about a lot considering the post vote google searches for "what is brexit"

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Following the last few years the list of topics they were concerned with is growing very slim.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well they were basically only ever really concerned about two things (immigration and muh sovereignty), they didn't give a shit about anything else, they'd even say it would be worth the UK going backwards for decades to get out of the EU.

Muh sovereignty and mah freedom might be cousins.

One is just harder to spell.

They are well on their way to becoming the 51st State!

Canada and UK act all haughty about being superior to the US but we have MAGA here and the UK has similar, and there is a reason they are called TERF island.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

the UK has similar

Our idiots are idiots - they aren't insane idiots. MAGAts can only happen in a country without universal mental health care.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

Have you tried accessing mental health care here recently? We have practice nurses prescribing SSRIs, not mental health care.

Nah, that's Australia. Australia and the US are closer allies than UK and the US.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

I read that linguistically, Australian English is closer to American than British versions. Having never yet been there but occasionally having a Violet Crumble when available, I can believe it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

It's a mix of both. For basic things like elevator vs lift, Aussies will generally understand both words and use them interchangeably.

Historically there was a lot of British influence, but these days I feel like it's definitely getting closer to US English. A lot of media (movies, TV shows, YouTube creators, etc) in Australia is American, and a lot of American slang enters the vernacular that way.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

It's becoming that way, but it's still definitely closer to British English.

We'll see once we sink their tea again!

New Guam, maybe.
