I also think asking for some of those things is absurd and intrusive. I would feel a little (*not deathly) uncomfortable baring my soul like that to some anonymous Discord admins. …

This is one of the many problems Guix solves on a slightly lower level than most package managers, because binaries live inside Guix packages (/usr/bin is simply populated by absol…

There's not much more to do than create a quicker remote wrapper. The Git flow here is 2+1 steps: add another remote, push to that remote (+1 is to create the remote). It would be …

I watched through most of the interesting MGS3 codec scenes in Japanese (after playing it in English years ago). It had an absurdly great script in both languages (perhaps better J…

The other day I tweeted with one of the localisers behind Half Minute Hero / 勇者30 , a silly RPG-esque game. They did this with one of the stages: it was a sepia level, harkening ba…

I love Jeremy, I've followed him for a while on Twitter. He comes across as self-confident and prideful of his work, which is great and perfect for a good translator (which he cert…

I love audiobooks (and anything media that comes with audio too) for learning languages. Inflection and hearing what's written is hugely beneficial to understanding, and it's much …

Exactly, built-in delegation and impersation features solve this. AWS IAM and Kubernetes have great implementations. Hopefully we get some more standards like OAuth so people talk …

A nice setup is something I'm really, really looking forward to once my student life is over. So I can't upvote this, viewing it makes me too sad :'(

Many recent GitHub features have been ports from GitLab: WIP pull requests, suggested issues. I'd reverse the question and ask what GitHub is offering that GitLab isn't (except the…

Perfect, exactly what I needed. Trying to make the switch to Guix from Arch Linux but my hardware is hopelessly unsupported. There's a guix-nonfree repo out there but I couldn't ge…

I have high respect for you. As for myself, I'll play the student card and bow out, haha :)

Where are my Rockbox users at? My tiny plastic Sansa Clip+ MP3 player has been going for years, I'd be nothing without it. >10hrs playback, supports >128 GB microSD, plays OGG/FLAC…

Somehow I found this the other day when searching for a new laptop. 2 models, identical, one with Windows 10 pre-installed and one FreeDOS (of all OSes!). 100€ cheaper. Perhaps not…

"UK agent for Gator said that they didn’t have the money for security, as otherwise they couldn’t afford a staff Xmas party" I love this.

I love the GOV.uk website. It comes across as very, very well designed (phrased like that because I'm no designer, I can only judge as a dumb user). I use it and most Hugo-based we…

Big fan of making technical spacecraft manoeuvres sound like cool skateboard tricks.

Great, but there's a whole bunch of languages out there differentiate between male and female spoken language. Bit disappointed that it doesn't mention anything regarding that.

That's a really interesting final point that I've been trying for a long time to ingrain in myself. If someone is grouchy or irritable, it might not be that they're a bad person, i…

ありがとうございます！すぐに試してみたいですヽ(=´▽`=)ﾉ

Awesome! Fantastic news. If there's any chance sircmpwn is lurking here, quick question: has there been any further development on IME support? I use Mozc+IBus. Last time I tried o…

It certainly makes getting into this field open to students like me. Very glad for that
