@archos@janbartosik ještě tam je výhoda v tom, že ty servery jsou po celém světě, takže si klikneš a najednou jsi připojený do Internetu třeba v USA. To se hodí, když chceš obejít geolokační limity. Firefox VPN je převlečené Mullvad VPN, které myslím taky používá Wireguard.
@alcinoe I always advice volunteers to turn their attention to less cryptic languages when they turn their attention to Hungarian - other than you are born with it it is a hard nut to crack...
@alcinoe not impossible though. Remembering a course mate at uni who was actually studying Hungarian and could come up with some real Hungarian words (historically originated in Transylvania) I never heard of and couldn't make sense of 😀
Napadlo mě, že jsem vlastně ještě nikde neviděl rozepsané, jak přesně vznikají ty slavné algoritmické "bubliny", a proč (nám) to sociální sítě vlastně dělají. Tak jsem dal dohromady tento článek:
@jachym@filiph účty, jejichž příspěvky mě vždycky nejvíc "nasraly", jsem ani nesledoval. V drtivé většině případů to byly ty předhazované algoritmem. Vím, že lze na X zobrazovat jen příspěvky od lidí, které sleduju, ale ta síť to záměrně stěžuje přepínáním na "For You" apod, tak proč síť, která jde proti mé mentální pohodě vůbec používat?
Konečně oznámili, co už tu před pár měsíci naznačoval @jakubzelenka: #Respekt se osamostatnil. Jakožto dlouholetý předplatitel se na změny těším a držím palce. 🤞 #Czech#Press
@RezzaBuh@sesivany Já měl dlouho problém přenést přes srdce jejich články o školství 😁 Ale asi jsem býval trochu přecitlivělý a iritovala mě každá chybka v terminologii... Snad po těch letech, co už neučím, se nad to dovedu povznést 😉
@music Physiogically speaking, they weren't actually in separate ears, but I was hearing bits of them both at the same time and separately. Charles Ives would be proud.
@glynmoody this muddies the water of copyright even more — when creators are urged to use AI tools by their employers, but the result is not copyrightable at all, who owns for example a comic, if unspecified parts of the comic could be non-copyrightable? What happens if the creators just keep the AI-generated parts and build their own comics on top of them, re-creating visuals similar to what they got paid for?
I'm glad this article addresses multiple languages and is from the perspective of Europeans, which adds a different flavor.
For my family, particularly my dad's side, he was the first and second English speaker. My grandmother, though born in the US, spoke #Czech until she was seven, and the sheriff forced her into school. Before that, her Moravian father thought girls didn't need to go to school. Later, as I was a kid, she would use it only with other, older relatives, and by the time ...
... she was in her 70s, she said she couldn't really remember Czech, because she didn't use it as the older relatives died.
My grandfather, on the other hand, was the first person not to speak #German on his side. Before that, all the family spoke German in #Texas since the 1840s. But WWI put an end to that. Other than greetings, my grandfather spoke little German at all. My great-grandfather spoke with a strong German accent.
There is a certain whistfulness about language that my father...
... expresses, not having learned the language of his mother or grandfather, but there's a certain practicality to it, as it is unlikely he would have ever really used either language in day-to-day.
@fulelo Words to read while we still can: "It is evident that contemporary populism, nourished by the deluge of disinformation frequently managed by countries hostile to us, is revivifying the ancient demons of nationalism. Our common task, once again, is to close the floodgates against those demons..."
🇨🇿 #Czech President Petr Pavel says security services should monitor #Russians living in the West, calling it "simply the cost" of the Kremlin's war against #Ukraine
@rvps2001 Totally agree - we 100% need to be able to put hands on the oligarchy's brats at a moment's notice. Interesting that this is coming from Pavel. Czechia has one of the bigger FSB problems. I'd place it third after Zurich and Brussels ahead of Austria.
