"Microsoft is trying to find one more home for its revamped Edge
browser. Its Technical Program Manager for web, Sean Larson, has put
out a new survey on Twitter asking feedback from developers who depend
on Linux for development, testing, and other stuff.
The survey asks developers what distro they prefer for development,
and whether they prefer browsers for automated testing, web
development or personal browsing. It also asks what things they
require in a Linux web browser to meet their development needs.(...)
Some Reddit users are arguing that MS Edge is just another skin for
Chromium and bringing it to Linux will only add another browser to the
crowd. A few others are saying it would be more helpful MSFT open
sources binaries of Chromium Edge (...)"

Who's interested in yet another Chromium (= Gugle) derivative?

The "best" of both worlds: Gugle and Micro$oft ;-)

Ahem... that expression has now been superseded by:

"I would not touch it with a 3.048 meter barge pole"

I haven't really kept up with Edge, but isn't the newest version just
another "flavor" of Chrome? On the rare occasion when I need to use "Chrome"
(for Send to Kindle, mostly) I just use Vivaldi.

No, no, it's too early for me to return to the home. Gerroff!
I have a British in-law who once tried to tell me:

"It's not 'gasoline', it's PETROL."

and:

"You Yanks with your bloody Liverpudlian accent. It's not 'erbs', it's
'HERBS'. Look at the word. How's it spelled?"

In answer, I told him that he's living in America now and to fucking get
used to it. However, I did take his advice on the word "herbs".

He now drinks cold "bloody lawga", watches both NFL and college football
avidly, has gotten used to driving in the right hand lane. Can't get him
to stop drinking Scotch though.

He has an identical twin brother. When that one comes over to visit,
it's fun to see how much my in-law's accent has been Americanized.

Resistance is futile.

Except when he is talking to his brother lhis accent will shift to be
far more British.

My son has a Canadian father and a British mother. Especially when he
was young his accent would shift to a British one when talking to her,
and a Canadian when talking to me.

Resistance? Maybe politeness, and civility, since you apparently were
extremely married to maintaining the habits of your youth. Since it was
so important to you, he felt he might as well humour you.

I can't speak English to a Brazilian, or Portuguese to an
Englishman.

For example, if I say "Hour" to a Brazilian it comes out as
"How-er". I pronounce the "H".
Speaking Portuguese to an Englishman I sound like an fscking
Eyetie (is that derogatory? If so, sorry).
I'm convinced I have two brains. One is paranoid. That's the
good one. Unfortunately neither would be much use for teaching
languages..

And tell me, just exactly, who isn't if they don't change locations?

I lived on the East Coast in Connecticut when I was in the service.
After about two years or so, I picked up their accent to the point where
one time I told somebody in a bar that I am from the West Coast, was
born and raised there. The other person expressed surprise, told me that
he would never have guessed that because I didn't sound like somebody
from there.

You adapt to your environment, it's a human thing. The environment
doesn't adapt to *you*.
Post by William Unruh

Nonsense. My in-law slowly (over a period I might add of over 45 years)
simply adapted to his environment.

I was born in the United States, population 329,745,560. OTOH, GB has a
population of 66,986,342. The United States has a version of the
"English" language which is mildly divergent from its origins and as
time goes by, the divergence is most likely to increase.

It's the height of arrogance to believe it's appropriate to come to my
country and tell me how to talk. Put the shoe on the other foot. How
appropriate would it be if I went to GB and started telling people to
talk and spell with the way United States citizens do?

Oh, I forgot. I'm talking to a Canuck.

but I don't think we really care. We'll convert as soon as we feel

Specially those that can't do math.

9.85 kilometers is 9850 meters which is 98500 decimeters which
is 985000 centimeters.

9.85 miles is X yards which is X feet which is X inches.
No, I can't be bothered. Not without a calculator.

The world has left the U.S. behind in the use of the metric system but
I don't think we really care. We'll convert as soon as we feel like
it. This is probably a touchy subject for some people.
The metric system has been legal for trade in the USA since the 1860s.
The USA participated in the first Convention of the Metre in the late
19th century where the formal international metric system was created.
Shortly afterward (basically as soon as the technical details were
settled and official standards became available) the metric system
became the basic system of units for the USA with the customary units
being redefined as derived units.

The medical and pharmaceutical industries in the USA use only metric
units. Look around and you will see that almost every package of goods
sold in the USA that is labeled with units has both metric and customary
given. Every auto mechanic is familiar with metric units.

We *are* gradually converting. What the critics who constantly piss and
moan about how backward we are for using customary units and demand that
something be done really want is a law banning the use of the customary
system. Not going to happen. In the mean time computers are making the
whole issue less and less important.

It's a matter of great importance in reactionary litlle England aka

"Leader of the House of Commons Jacob Rees-Mogg has issued a set of
rules for staff in his office to follow, including a list of banned
words and a requirement to use imperial measurements.(...)"

My motorcycle (a Victory, made in the USA), my car (a Buick, made in the
USA) and many of the appliances in my house use metric fasteners. I have
a complete set of metric sockets in my tool-box. Hell, even my ruler
about two feet away from my left hand as I type this has inches and
centimeters on it. My car's speedometer is in both MPH and KPH.

Slowly but surely, kicking and screaming all the way, America is being
metricized. In fact, I agree with the French proposal for metric time.

I agree, the examples are NOT anecdotal. They are facts, disproving a
general hypothesis, that the difference between using Imperial and
metric units is becoming unimportant. Of could it could then be argued
that 1999 and 1998 were the early bad old days, when the difference was
important but in the past 5 minutes (or 5 years) it has become less important and that is what
he meant. Of course he gave no evidence that it had become less
important. He had a theory that somehow computers made it less
important, but the link is obscure. If a builder gets delivered a piece
of metric plywood (1.2x2.4m) instead of the 4x8 piece of US plywood, no number of
computers would help him.

I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole...
"I would not touch it with a 3.048 meter barge pole"
Why, what's the joke?
The "joke" is that US Americans — and to a far lesser extent also some
British and Canadians — cling onto the Imperial measurements system for
dear life, while the rest of the world — including Australia and New
Zealand, both of which are officially English-speaking countries — have
already long adopted the metric system.

By consequence, the age-old expression "I wouldn't touch it with a
10-foot pole" should technically become "I wouldn't touch it with
a 3.048-meter pole" — 10 feet equals 3.048 meter. ;)

It's ridiculous, of course, because that expression has a cultural
significance, and changing the measurements used in the expression
would completely destroy that significance.

No one would expect the expression in question to be altered for the
sake of converting the Imperial size to metric size. It's like those
typical expressions...

- "Your mileage may vary."; or
- "Never judge a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes." [*]


[*] At least, then you'll be a mile away. *And* you'll have his shoes.

Actually saying : 10 metre pole would not alter the meaning of the
phrase, and would, to those in the know, strengthen it, since 10 m is
further than 10ft.
There is no significance to the exact 10ft distance-- it is simply a far
enough distance that the thing touched could not affect you and is a
pole that you could manipulate.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quant_pole

A quant (quant pole) is a pole used to propel a barge (barge pole) or punt through water.
....
A quant used with a punt is about 4 metres (13 ft) long
...
Large sailing wherries employed a quant pole at least 8 metres (26 ft) in length

So apparently a 10m pole COULD be wielded.

Please explain for those that don't have English as first language and
do not live in an English speaking country ;-)
3.048 m is the same as 10 ft. (2.54 cm/inch, by definition of the inch,
10ft=120 inches 120*2.54= 304.8cm=3.048m which is however vastly
overspecific, since a 10ft pole is not exactly 10ft long-- rather it is
probably somewhere between 9'6" and 10'6" long. So it should be 3 m
pole (one sig fig as first year engineers are taught)
