High school teacher (Latin)

I started taking Latin in college and got immersed in it and other languages, it stimulates the analytical side of my brain quite nicely. I ended up getting a degree in Classical Studies, then looped back and got my teaching credentials when grad school admissions in my field got bombed into oblivion by the crash in '08.

Sadly I haven’t seen any active communities here on Lemmy; Reddit has/had one (I haven’t checked in on them in a long while though). As to what resources you would need for a refresher, I’d recommend something like Wheelock’s Latin Reader, which is full of adapted and original texts to get you some practice. As to the grammar side of things, either a formal reference grammar like Allen and Greenough’s or Bennet’s. If you want something more structured, I’d recommend a collegiate textbook, such as A New Latin Primer (I use this with both my collegiate and (upper-level) high school students). Lastly, if you’d like some bite-sized refreshers on specific topics, Latin Tutorial on Youtube is a good resource. Hope that helps! Edit: Turns out Bennet’s grammar is available at the Latin Library: https://www.thelatinlibrary.com/bennett.html

As a Latin teacher I can back up your assessment; well done! And 100% agree on Cicero, especially his private letters.

Ah, what a shame, he had some good stuff.

I’m assuming you’re talking about the YouTuber; It’s been since before the pandemic that I’ve watched AvE, what did he do?

For me it was during the development of Diablo 3 when Blizzard acted like a bunch of children over community comments/concerns about the art style/direction of the game. I don’t feel like I’ve missed out on much, honestly.

While I’m not sure the “walking sim” games are what you’re looking for, I’d add Lifeless Planet and maybe Dear Esther. Once you know what’s going on/what happened, there’s not much point in replaying.

Perhaps not as full featured as the others, but I host wiki.js for my knowledge base on my local server.

Greetings from Central PA!

Totally agree on that one, honeydew is so much better

I’m not a fan of the skin on starfruit, but the taste is fantastic. OTOH, if even half of what I’ve heard about durian is correct, that’s quite the bold statement to make there

They are also accused of knowingly having asbestos in their baby powder. As to the baby formula, I know Nestle had a major scandal with that stuff, but I didn’t know about J&J doing similar.

Neither; I don’t like the feeling of something on my wrist. I used to have a pocket watch, but finding a modern one is rather difficult, so I just use my phone.

I’m reminded of this: https://what-if.xkcd.com/31/

I recently did that with a Debian 3 (r8 I think) disc, that whole experience was a blast from the past!

I use Roman authors, with the machine/VM’s purpose (often vaguely) linked to what the author was known for. For example, my NAS is called Tacitus (a historian), while my game server is called Plautus (a playwright). A couple services predate my schema (like my Pihole and OPNSense box) and are named descriptively.

I wouldn’t’ve, that’s for sure!
