Well, FWIW, ISO 3166's full name is Codes for the representation of names of countries and their subdivisions. "ISO 3166" is just easier to type and refer to.
Though GUAC would be a great acronym, lol.

I wish people would learn and use the ISO 3166 codes for their area. For example, US-DC, GB-LND, AU-ACT, etc. Unambiguous, easy to look up, short to write, etc. Just takes a super quick search. I know it'll never happen, but standards are great!
The most frustrating part for me is that Reddit could have turned 3PAs into a revenue stream by just making the API pricing reasonable. No one would have been too upset by that, even the 3PA developers thought that would have been reasonable. Hell, I would have rather had Reddit just shut down 3PA explicitly, instead of the stupid cowardly strongarm tactic.

-Gran Turismo (literally all of them, but 4 is a classic)
-Super Mario Galaxy 1&2

"Based" is typically used to describe someone who says/does something without caring if they'll be judged for it. Most commonly, it's shorthand for "That's a controversial opinion and you are bold for saying it, but I agree with you." It turns the previous sentence into an adjective, which is a little weird but it makes sense eventually.
So if I had to choose a single word as a synonym, I would say "Bold".
I'm probably going to end up back on Reddit to some extent, but I think Lemmy will stay in my rotation of stuff I open when I'm bored. Or until they inevitably kill old.reddit.com, then I'll be outta there for good...
Can I subscribe to more badger facts?
