I wonder if people at work are affected, I know they would certainly panic. Thankfully all this shit is happening while I’m on PTO.

Learning Japanese. The online classes are only once a week so there’s not much pressure, and you can study a bit more during the week on your own if you want.

Some of the best qualities of Italy and Spain added together… and their worst multiplied.

Assuming he has the means, crossing into Bolivia or Paraguay illegally has always been significantly easier than most people would expect.

I got one of these inside my house and I can’t get him out. I appreciate how it eats all the bugs, but I don’t appreciate it shitting all over the place and walls.

It’s not just puns. Humor relies on expectations, which change depending on culture, so most jokes you memorize fall flat in a different language.

I guess the use of the legal angle is mostly so that once the courts decide whether AI training without permission is stealing or not, there is a chance that LLM companies will have to declare all the produced code under GPL/conflicting licences and will be bankrupt overnight as they will need to retrain from scratch with allowed sources.

AFAIK, that’s correct, it considers serving the software as a a service as equivalent to distributing it under the GPL, so as soon as you have 1 remote user, you have to agree to distribute the code under request.

I prefer this to the string of sites that just outright block me based on location. Or have permanently banned my IP range without me ever visiting them.

Isn’t this how you get every site on earth to just block French users? Something similar happened with the GDPR and American websites. The truly lazy ones just blocked everyone outside the US.

Isn’t Jolla only available in a handful of EU countries? That’s not a solution for ~95% of the world.

Have you tried Kallisti?

Have you tried Kallisti? It’s built on top of Mumble

This type of “democrat” really excels at making you feel like more positive changes would come from them getting Luigi’d than Trump himself suffering that fate.

This is why rather than celebrate, the campaigners on the progressive side of the party should now start the work to get all the “pro status quo” and “pro Zionists” democrats out if they want to see any changes.

And funded a massive amount of Linux and Linux software development. People who say Valve does nothing are either oversimplifying for a joke or, if serious, grossly ignorant about what Valve does.

That happens naturally after reading and writing for a couple of years(depending on how intensive is the practice of the language). Eventually the brain just merges Manzana, Apple, リンゴ or whatever with the concept of that fruit without needing to do mental translations.

The “embarazada”/“embarrassed” mix-up is really common and it always elicits the same confused reaction from people who hear it for the first time.

“brazen” is closer to “osado” or “audaz” in meaning. “bizarría” (noun) and “bizarro” (adjective) are used in old texts and patriotic songs and implies honorable or generous bravery, such as that of a liberator.

Like recently where I am, it’s pushing “anticuado” as “outdated”. Except that is obviously “Antiquated”.

Don’t rely on word similarity without checking dictionaries, otherwise you will end up like people who think “bizarro” means “bizarre”. False friends are a thing.

“obliguado” doesn’t seem like a real Spanish word to me, and the RAE dictionaries seem to agree with me.

Also it’s very common for certain words to have no equivalent translation with the same root, so you will have to settle for “words used in the target language in this situation” even if they don’t quite get the nuances across.
