Beim Sprachen lernen kommt’s immer drauf an wo man her kommt/welche Sprache die Muttersprache ist.

Wer als Deutschsprachiger Japanisch lernt hat es z.b. schwieriger als jemand, der schon Chinesisch kann und Japanisch lernt, weil die Sprachen in den Regionen mehr Ähnlichkeiten haben.

Andererseits ist es für uns Deutsche einfacher Englisch zu lernen als z.b. für die Japaner, weil Englisch und Deutsch vom Aufbau relativ ähnlich sind.

Would make a good copypasta

No? Why?

I don’t want to defend Israel, but their current war is a defensive one, no?

I do the same. Forgejo works really well, and I’m also absolutely stoked for forge fed some day.

It also has things like CI/CD. It’s a really really good project and self hosting it is relatively painless. Even integrating it with my identity provider over oidc was no problem.

Yeah but search for what even?

You guys must have better hours than me.

Usually 09:00 to 17:30, 40 hour week. (30 minutes break). In addition, my commute is 1:30h one way.

At least we don’t have flying cars, that would be a nightmare

Logseq is good but it doesn’t have all the obsidian features: it handles markdown a bit differently, does not just use the file tree and has no tags.

Synfonium is the only thing that I could get to work with my selfs hosted jellyfin server and with downloading of music. I haven’t had any problems with it though.

Japanese has been an open issue for months now, so it’s a nope from me.

I use audiobookshelf. You need to have some (self hosted or not) server to use the client, but I find that software incredibly well made.

As a private person, defending against nation threat actors is impossible. And not only as a private person, but even as a medium sized company.

Factoring mods also use lua. Lua is a neat little extension language.

What do you mean? The vim users know their key combinations pretty well, that’s kind of the point of vim.

That extension is actually pretty cool. There is also tridactyl and a browser that was made with vim in mind, but a browser and a text editor are too different for many things to translate.

That acronym usually stands for “Input Method Editor” and describes the program that makes people able to type east Asian characters with a usual keyboard.

日本語は楽しいです。

1. Yeah I get it, it feels somewhat anonymous, but if you look, it’s really not. I use my usual Internet Pseudonym and if you search for it you can probably find my personal website quickly. As a German, I’ve had to put an impression there even. Reminds me, maybe using my Pseudonym everywhere is something I should avoid, but then again, I’ve grown attached to it. I follow ich_iel on here and also read comments there. It’s a small community and you just know the regulars after a while.

2. It’s not hard to use if you already know it, but I feel were forgetting the majority of the population that is absolutely not well versed in technology. I occasionally listen to a podcast that addresses the social media trends of the week, and in many episodes they addressed the fediverse once. And it was only mastodon for them, they didn’t even get the name right, and they didn’t really get federation too. I feel like it’s true that it’s not hard to use, but it seems like it’s still hard for the average person to get into the fediverse, presumingly caused by the network effect and the fact that corps can’t milk us dry and take all our data. The decentralized nature makes it hard to grasp for “normies”.

3. Yes I have great friends and love them very much. I don’t have a lot of English only friends. Someone in my family is married to a man from England, and I got to know a few of his friends, it was all great. True that even in the younger generation there are groups with low english skills, I feel like we’d need statistics on it to be sure.

I don’t we’re arguing or anything. Thanks for the conversation :)
