Comment on Google sues web scraper for sucking up search results ‘at an astonishing scale’
Quexotic@beehaw.org 1 day agoMaybe it’s a translation issue, we have
- rivers
- streams
- creeks
- Brooks and
- runs
…
Maybe they just have the 2 words so there’s information lost in translation?

That’s a wildly incomplete list. I guess if you’re out east, that might feel like a full list, but if you’ve ever lived somewhere with arroyos, you’ve never experienced brooks or runs. I mean, short of Mel Brooks and having diarrhea.
There’s an old joke about growing up in Phoenix: That one does not associate rivers or bridges with water.
