My understanding, however limited, is that "property" means something different in this context. Essentially, it means things like real estate and businesses, things that make money. You can own food, clothes, a TV, watches, a car, whatever you want, as long as it doesn't make money.

If you wanted to start a business, you probably could, and you wouldn't need to pay for it. The State would own the business, and you would be paid to run that business. This absolves you of all the risk associated with it, and you get paid more than a grocery store shelf stocker because you're doing a harder job, and thus demonstrating greater ability.

If a country ever implements true communism it will experience extreme brain drain and be left with only the most unskilled people.

I'm not sure where you got this idea from. I'm not particularly informed on the subject, but when I look up the dictionary definition of communism, I get this:

a political theory derived from Karl Marx, advocating class war and leading to a society in which all property is publicly owned and each person works and is paid according to their abilities and needs.

Emphasis mine. If people with more ability are paid more, then they shouldn't be flocking out of the country, right?

This is a Linux circle jerking community, so naturally Windows bad.

Not really, the spices are different. Chai has more bite, pumpkin spice is more of a mellow warmth. It's difficult to describe without using American terms, because it's the spice blend we use for pumpkin pie. If you've ever had one of those, then you'll have a good idea of what to expect out of the drink.

I think it's pretty safe to say that the two terms are unrelated, and that most people on a non-Japanese-speaking community would not make that same connection.

Oh, I misunderstood, I didn't realize in this scenario you were asking them if they were nonbinary. The linguistic answer is everything in Spanish defaults to masculine.

I, personally, would treat it the same as I treat the pronoun game here in the US, because it's essentially the same thing: I start with whichever one jumps out at me and accept correction if necessary, because they are the ones who made the decision to make their grammatical identifiers differ from convention. It's not my responsibility to know it ahead of time.

If they want to be a dick about it, I now know they're not someone I want to spend time around anyway.

No binario is masculine, because it ends in -o. To make it feminine, it is changed to no binaria, ending in -a. Therefore, no binaria is feminine.

There are neutral adjectives that end in something else, such as verde (green) or feliz (happy), but most adjectives do not have a neutral form.

It sounds stupid, but the chatbot is actually right. The person saying the phrase would pick one based on how they view or present themselves. It's not a disparagement to say that a non-binary individual has a gender with respect to Spanish grammatical structure, because quite literally everything does. Chairs are feminine, days are masculine, etc.

I would probably include Metal Wolf Chaos unironically.

Well... The main villain is black.

Something about using the power of God under direction of what's presumably a traditional monarchy to fight the forces of anarchy, also.

But mostly the main villain thing.

Many people have commented on the convenience factor for the passengers, so I won't retread that ground, but another aspect has to do with the moment of inertia and center of gravity of the system.

In 3-2-3 arrangement, weight is located farther from the geometric center of the plane. This means variation in passenger weight can shift the center of gravity around more, and the pilot wants that center of gravity as close to the plane's center as possible for a stable flight.

As far as moment of inertia goes, it's easier to roll the plane if weight is closer to the center, and planes rolling helps planes steer. Granted, there's not a whole lot up there that needs to be dodged with lightning reflexes, but if the plane crashes, it's a Very Big Deal, so they work in every precaution they can.

On a rational level, I agree with this approach, for people who can do it. It doesn't work for me I practice, though, because breaking a 35 year habit takes effort and focus, and I just don't care enough about the subject to want to worry about it.
