@udda_boktips@mastodon.nu Det var en synnerligen tvetydigt formulerad mening.

@udda_boktips@mastodon.nu Tvetydigt och mycket beroende på kontext och talarens ursprung. I lagliga sammanhang menas oftast förbjudet, och somliga lagtexter skriver ut denna definition, medan somliga lagvrängare rekommenderar att man aldrig använder "may not" så att det inte tolkas som "kanske inte".
Let me tell you, a television tuned to a dead channel does not have a blue tint.
Rest in peace, Sir Brian de Bois-Guilbert! Sweden will remember you.

Looking up some Belgian stuff, I found that artist Hermann Huppen (Jeremiah, Bernard Prince, etc.) died back in March this year. RIP. https://www.tcj.com/hermann-hero-of-the-hard-boiled-1938-2026/ #belgium #bd #bandedessinee #comics #hermann

@bodil I felt sure someone must have done asm.sh already and I was right.

@cstross@wandering.shop Sure, regexps are great. If your editor supports them, and you know how to write them correctly, and the implementation doesn't have word boundary issues with utf-8. For any average writer stuck on an average text editor, I suggest the 3-step method.

@cstross@wandering.shop Protip: always do big renamings via an intermediate nonsense string.
1) Globally rename the original string 'pants' to something that doesn't occur anywhere else, like 'xyzyx'.
2) Search for the new string and step through all occurrences to check for mistakes like 'particixyzyx' and fix them. This is now an easy task.
3) Rename all placeholders to the final string.
