I don't see the point of watching upscaled version of an old TV show. It ruins the atmosphere. It's like playing the NES version of Tetris on an emulator and using HD textures for some reason.
Also if you'd want to upscale it anyway, why not provide source material and allow customers to use any upscaler they want?
I have found out that my productivity goes down after about 6 hours of work. And even if the productivity is seemingly the same (e.g. when I worked at cigarettes factory), I unsurprisingly made more mistakes when tired. Although I must say I am more tired when I do boring shit (or nothing lol) in office job than on production line, but it's just me.
As a person who is intrigued in linguistics, I wonder how ~~AI~~ LLMs will affect real languages. I wonder if there is any research papers on this.
And if you go out and order a drink, you might get 3 or 4 straws.
I have never seen that happening. Where do you live? Here in Poland you get maximum 1 straw if any, lol.
Edit: Or you mean alcoholic drink? It's possible, but I don't really drink this kind of stuff at pubs, only beer.
straws
I probably use a straw a single time each year, and I don't see people using straws much either, why is this a huge problem again?
Technically an original source code was adopted to SNES, even including some (most?) glitches, so I'd say it's more like a port or remaster than remake, even though graphics and audio were remade.
Definitely. Even other series were interesting. I especially like his perspective of how much bloated software currently is.
...but I ultimately unsubscribed him, because the most videos were alt-right bullshit, without providing even credible sources on the biggest claims. Definitely NOT give him any traffic anymore, he doesn't deserve it.
Sure, but there's no transphobia here. Stop spreading nonsense.
Again this shit. This have been debunked many times, yet people still write this nonsense.
These are two separate problems, and as for "pro-choice" and "pro-life" I wouldn't group people just in these two ways, because if somebody supports abortion, but not in all cases, where does this put them?
Also life beginning at conception has nothing to do whether or not it's a conscious life. But you could debate at what point there's consciousness, what it even is and whether or not animals have the same "type" of consciousness. It's all moral issues, and you can never solve them, because there's no right answer.
This will cause riots, lol.
You mean: Any alternative to gamified app that makes people think they're learning languages, but really just waste their time for relatively quick dopamine boosts?
That said, I don't really use any apps aside from Anki for learning basic sentences/common words (up to about 5000-10000 of them) with examples of usage.
Good language course, a handbook or getting knowledge from YouTube videos, dictionaries, corporas, random Google searches and prompts in chatbots (they are so good for that), etc. is much better.
To get to B1-B2 level in any language I think it's the best to have good handbook or individual teacher (who is a native speaker). Also learn phonetic symbols (IPA) for your target language, to be able to check pronunciation of words you aren't sure how to pronounce. For higher level(s) see above.
You should also immerse yourself into target language as much as you can, but if you want to actively learn from media, you should only use material that is about 90% comprehensible to you, so you learn remaining 10% by context. If you have some specific interests (like video gaming or history) you can of course try to watch this content in your TL, but I found out that watching drama TV shows (which is what I normally don't watch in my native language) is also very effective, since you learn words of everyday usage.
As for learning new words I have 2 tips:
