"I said, 'Sundar, I'm thinking of the Atlantic Ocean. Can you handle it?' "'No, no, no, this time I'm not doing it,' he said, 'Oceans are different, sir. They cover a lot of - really a lot of countries. Please don't ask us to do that.'" The US president later said he would "probably pass" and keep the name Atlantic, before saying, "We're going to call it the American Ocean".

    Totally unrelated: toddlers test adults boundaries. Once the adult give up on a boundary, that is a given and they would put a tantrum if they don’t keep in getting their way.

    What it’s worse is that they will move to the next boundary and repeat the same.

    In general I would say for toddler is better to set clear and firm boundaries so that a lot of tantrum and screaming are saved.

    But what was the article about, again?

    In April 2024, a viral Reddit post featured a photograph purportedly showing former U.S. President Donald Trump looking directly at the sun without protective eyewear during the 2017 total solar eclipse. The then-president was standing next to his wife, first lady Melania Trump, and looking up with his face illuminated by the sun, even though NASA has warned that viewing any part of the sun without protective eyewear will cause damage to the eyes.

    Personally, I think not. I think he's just trolling and rage baiting with the name changes. Also some distracting.

    But that doesn't mean he's immune to counter trolling. Not that I think Lemmy is even on his radar, so it's more imaginary counter trolling.

    Well, he didn’t rename Lake Superior; he’ll probably call the Pacific “Superior Ocean” and miss the fact that this means the one bit will be America and the other bit Superior.

    Canada should agree to name a Great Lake after Trump, and invite him to a big, gaudy ceremony to rename it to "Lake Inferior".

    I suggest it not be a great lake; we can tell him to make it great.

    I’ve got the perfect suggestion for “Lake Inferior” - it’s a currently unnamed lake below the Crypt Lake trail in Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta.

    There's this, lusting over Republican candidate asses, and bragging about finding a giraffe in a kid's drawing.

    1. No one around him is able to give him a filter to not say dumb shit that makes him look bad.
    2. Like 2020 election, he can't lie his way about corruption/destruction of America (Covid management was bad) promising to undo it. So he has to talk about "nothing".

    Flexing on the world, for no gain, does show how cowardly and sycophantic that world is and continues to be. It's still late stage empire behaviour and collapse acceleration.

    It's got to the point that I'm just hoping the rest of the world loses enough respect to finally tell America to get fucked. Letting them do pretty much whatever they want since the end of WWII has been a disaster.

    I wonder why the Russians haven't taken out their leader. He cheats so bad that the elections are just a prop, he sends young and old to a useless war, and he has been horrible to his people, economy and allies, while stealing as much as he can get his hands on. I bet it's because it wouldn't be wise, or are his people just stupid?

    A map can have different names for the same thing depending on the country. Like baltic sea is "Ostsee" in german. Or the Atlantic sea is Atlantischer Ozean. This would really only be a translation entry.

    Then it would be a geographical name change across dialects/variants of the same language. Also, most people who aren't from Canada, UK or Australia choose "English (US)" because it's usually the first option. Most people don't think this far but also because the writing shortenings ("colour" > "color") make labels slightly smaller and are easier to type.
