Finally public! My new #opensource web-app to learn #esperanto!
  • Kiam oni ne plenigas kampon, la ruĝa erarmesaĝo pri tio estas en la angla.

  • Finally public! My new #opensource web-app to learn #esperanto!
  • Interesa ideo. Tamen, kelkaj erarmesaĝoj estas en la angla?

    Ĉu vi konsideris uzi vortaron por aldoni la signifojn de konataj vortoj? Eble tio helpus komencantojn.

    Kaj: unufoja uzanto de via retejo eble ŝatus vidi kelkajn ekzemplojn de vortoj, komponantoj, ktp por pli facile lerni kiel uzi ĝin?

  • Healthcare expenditure vs Life expectancy
  • This is not a function graph, though. It is a Connected Scatterplot.

  • Who watches the watchmen?
  • More than one group of custodians, ideally with conflicting interests, watching one another? Essentially some system of checks and balances?

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • In my experience, many translations suck hard, to the point of, having on occasion compared different language versions of a novel, wondering how can readers of the translated version understand certain passages at all… So, I also try to read in the original if possible, if it is Portuguese, Spanish, French, English or Esperanto. I can kinda understand Italian as well but not enough to read a full-length novel… Still learning German…

  • What's the oldest game anyone here has played in 2024?
  • Was going to post this as well. Just replayed it again, never gets old!

  • What's The Point Of A Game If Nobody Wants To Participate?
  • This right here. In fact, the main reason for me stopping actively participating was point 3. Alas, sadly, this entire thread seems to prove the point over and over, as you keep flippantly replying to anything you don’t agree to, up to actually, apparently, blocking a user. You can’t nurture a community by making it your personal fiefdom. A community is made of all its members, diverse as they may be. I would like to come back, I love the game, but participating started feeling a bit toxic. So I lurk, and I suspect many do the same and that’s why subscription numbers increase, but not active participation. I do think people are capable of change, though, and look forward to becoming more active again.

  • Please be satire
  • Sadly, this was a thing even before the web, let alone social media. There’s always been people for whom the vacations didn’t even “happen” unless they get to go on incessantly about them when they come back, ideally subjecting you to two hours of photos that mean very little to you. They derive little enjoyment from actually being there, they take it from showing it others…

    For some people life is not worth living without external validation. Sad.

  • Das Rhinegold - Richard Wagner

    Obviously could not use the entire libretto to generate the image. Used the beginning.

  • Jesus! Fucking! Christ!

    As someone who fears bugs and is browsing Lemmy before going to sleep, my nightmares thank you, good sir!

  • Is anyone reading the new Ultimate Spiderman (2024)? Peter is older and have kids, the story seems cool and interesting
  • I have been reading it and it is indeed quite good. The setting in which it takes place is nice as well. Recommended!

  • Zilog Calls Time on the Venerable Z80, Discontinues the Standalone Z84C00 CPU Family
  • Fantastic. I had no idea the Z80 survived to this day!

  • Scared the shit out of me ngl
  • 1643 day streak here, and it still looks like it’s going to die on me any second now. I guess it was just an icon change (but… why?!)

  • This may be the wrong place to ask, but- Does anyone know of a reputable service that would turn a decades-old print book into an eBook?
  • I’ve used these guys. Fast, courteous and acceptable price. Still, unless you live in Portugal, I don’t think it will help you much. Might give you an idea of what to look for, though!

  • This may be the wrong place to ask, but- Does anyone know of a reputable service that would turn a decades-old print book into an eBook?
  • There are companies specializing in document management. One of the services they offer (besides archiving, secure destruction, etc.) is scanning books and creating high-quality pdfs of their contents. This is usually a (semi-)automated process that uses a machine that opens the book only as much as necessary, to try not to even damage its spine. I’ve used it professionally and can vouch for this kind of service, even if I cannot really recommend you a particular provider, since I very much doubt you live near me, in Europe. Still, I’m pretty sure you can find one close to you if you search.

    This will only take you halfway there, by producing a good quality pdf version of the book that you could share with others. To go the extra step of OCR’ing it, proofreading, adding the links, would need something else…

  • What book(s) are you currently reading or listening? 15 April
  • I read the first book in the series and found it… nice, but certainly not up to all the hype. Is it because it is just setting things up? Does it get better, more compelling, in subsequent books?

  • $70 titles are doomed to go “the way of the dodo” says Saber Interactive CEO
  • How about, instead of spending millions on marketing and exercises or graphical virtuosity that do nothing in terms of playability, innovation and fun, focusing on what matters and do games where $70 still turns a huge profit?

  • Some posts not appearing in communities?

    So, yesterday I made a comment to c/retrogaming, as a reply to this post. I can see the comment in my profile, and following the link shows the particular thread I commented on, so all is fine there. When I visit the community, though, I cannot find either my comment or that thread, as replies to the above post...
