PEMDAS is common. It stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction. PEMDAS is often expanded to the mnemonic “Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally” in schools.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's something you used to do/see/say but don't anymore because you don't feel it's right?
1·3 years agoGrew up in the 80s and 90s. As progressive and openminded as I thought I was then…holy shit there are a lot of words and phrases I won’t touch any more because they sound archaic, racist, mysoginistic, or hateful today. Back then they were perfectly acceptable everyday things no one would bat an eye at. It does make me happy that at least in this small arena we seem to have made progress as a society.
(Should add that this is from a US perspective)

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do I understand correctly that I have to subscribe to 5 different NoStupidQuestions on 5 different instances?
2·3 years agoFair enough. I don’t know that I’ve ever had a grocer with consistently bruised/rotted onions. I’ll go ahead and put that in the plus column.

2·3 years agoWhat is a “better” onion? More variety, maybe? Onions come in two kinds for me (other than type) edible and not; not a lot of spectrum on onion quality for me I guess.
Just about any other fruit or vegetable I can accept the varying quality of produce but onions and potatoes are either firm and good or mushy and not for me.
Or I could be overthinking what was probably an arbitrarily pulled example for an explanatory analogy.

Don’t forget about bangs for searching alternate sites: https://duckduckgo.com/bangs !w = wikipedia, !e = ebay, !zillow = guess, !r = reddit, etc
Just put your bang in front of the rest of the search you want to do on that site: !g why doesn’t Google use bangs? !ddg Why does Duck Duck Go use bangs?

Memes@lemmy.ml•I have a theory that the more lore a franchise has, the more of an autistic fanbase it has. I made a graphic about it.
4·3 years agoYeah, just don’t read that lore from here: https://kirby.fandom.com/wiki/Kirby
My head hurts from bad writing.
EDIT: Shit, now I got it, they’re related in 12s, like in dousens… why, WHY!
