I used Dreaming Spanish, which uses natural comprehension and teaches entirely in Spanish, with no translation. It’s not as fast as some alternatives, but it matches my learning style, and has given me a neutral accent when I speak

I assume so! If a bird expert can identify the bird from a given call, chances are, so can the bird pi (though not quite as accurately)

But they move in larger packs, and are more aggressive. No cat is safe from a flock of miners screeching at them!

For what it’s worth, I’ve got a second birdpi set up at my partners house, and there are kookaburras there! And lots of noisy miners too! Those birds really live up to their name, they are really noisy!

Done!

Can confirm

Image description: A screenshot from a birdpi, a device that identifies birds by their song, and catalogues their activity vs the time of day. The image shows a small amount of activity from a Barn Owl at 10pm and 1am. It also shows a very large volume of activity at 7am from crows, and other Australian birds

Because lemmy.blahaj.zone is the instance where the community is hosted, and it ensures that instance defederation and other federation quirks don’t stop the mod from seeing all of the reports.

There is no need for blahaj.zone to become the main account, just that they have one here to ensure they get a full view when they’re moderating

Yep, I get that. And the combat balancing in Owlcat games is something you either like or hate, so I wouldn’t recommend the game itself for everyone. But whatever you think about the rule system or combat design, the characters are really well done!

Wrath of the Righteous. Hands down, the most interesting party member NPCs I’ve encountered in a CRPG.

Unique takes on stereotypes, and you find yourself invested in even the unlikable characters.

Digikam. It supports grouping (or stacking as it’s called in Lightroom) by filename, so you can auto group RAW and JPG. It has hot keys for flagging rejects/approvals during initial inspections and review, so you can just fly through them.

Photoprism is not suitable as part of a post editing workflow. It’s a gallery for displaying and searching your photos after they’ve been sorted and edited.

The alternate party member NPCs are generic stereotypes, and far less interesting for that. They don’t hold a candle to the NPCs in something like Wrath of the Righteous, who subvert expectations in a wonderfullly interesting way.

There are two types of people that use slurs to talk about other folk.

The first group is made up of folk who don’t give a fuck if they’re hurting others.

The second group is made up of folk who don’t realise the slur is a slur or don’t understand why the slur is harmful.

The second group appreciates being informed about the consequences of their words so they can change course.

People in the first group that are pretending they’re in the second group get angry when called out. But they were always the first group.

Blahaj.zone admin here. Let me make this simple and clear. I don’t care what specific word you use, if you are using intellectual disability or neurodivergence as an insult, you’re going to get moderated.

To be fair, that bikeway could flood from someone bursting in to tears after a bad breakup

I’m pretty old and I’ve “completed” my transition, and I’m always happy to share my experiences or knowledge if people are interested.

Twinsies :)

But as GarfGirl has mentioned, if you’ve got a matrix account, I co-admin a matrix space that might be of interest. It’s not as convenient as discord, but, it’s decentralised and federated, and not hosted by a corporation driven by profit above everything else. So if that stuff is important to you, you’re welcome to give it a try

I scored the highest tertiary entrance rank in my school without studying a day in my life and had my pick of any university course or career. I went to university, and excelled at exams, but because I had undiagnosed ADHD and had never learned time management, I couldn’t cope with assignments that couldn’t be thrown together at the last minute in my lunch break. I was academically excluded.

So there was that. Basically, my life has continued to look like some variation of that experience since then :P

I’m just here for the Shadowrun screenshot in the video…
