NumericBiconditional

Interesting, thanks for the info.

the fediverse has done a great job replacing reddit for my scrolling-though-random-stuff needs! as for more niche stuff, it's still not there yet (as has been pointed out many, many times already), but i'm trying to help! i'm posting and commenting regularly on [email protected]. "be the change you want to see" and all that. i encourage everyone else to do the same with their niche communities!

edit: though at this point i have 4 accounts across different instances (here, lemmy.world, kbin.social, feddit.online), thanks to various things. so it's not entirely smooth sailing for me right now

for the record, i say it the first way (/u/ as in “goose”). hearing kirbyvolt (other comment) say it the other way in their kirby and the forgotten land let's play is what inspired me to post this.

i wasn't able to find an official english pronunciation from the nintendo of america youtube channel, but here's how various youtubers pronounce it:

/u/ as in "goose" / awoofy:
AntDude
pengyd769
Miketendo
The Completionist
Quasimofo
BornLosersGaming
StephenPlays
The D-Pad

/ʊ/ as in "foot" / awoofy:
Etce
Daily Doodles for You
KirbyVolt
ZackScottGames

based on this list, it seems like the first pronunciation (/u/ as in “goose”) is more common. but this isn't a big sample size so who really knows. feel free to bring up how other youtubers / notable people say it.

YES WE DO HAVE CONNECTION!

(also happened in aforementioned backstory, though not necessarily with the same level of enthusiasm. maybe it even happened with a much higher level of enthusiasm)

new activity on this community, after so long! i was trying to comment on another post for the past day or so and i believe it's still not working

oh yeah and i've switched instances to lemm.ee to try and help lessen the load on lemmy.world

oh and for those of you wondering why the comment count on lemmy.world is so high despite this being the only set of comments, that's because i've edited this post a bunch of times and there's some bug that counts those edits as new comments or something. sorry about that -- but hey, come on in and contribute some actual comments!

(above three paragraphs absolutely did not happen in aforementioned backstory)

testing, testing
do we have connection?

(also an apt description of what probably happened in a certain character's backstory)
