“You’re my present this year”

Back when they started, they had a forum where people explained grammar etc which was very helpful. They closed the forum, gods know why.

Duolingo sucks so much, I won’t even recommend the paid version. It teaches you nothing, just trial and error over and over. You can probably watch YouTube in French for a year and will pick up the language faster than trying to do it with Duo.

I went with Innovative Languages, in my case chineseclass101.com (they have one domain for each language, instead of the usual “courses” but it doesn’t matter, except if you want to learn multiple languages at once, then you’d pay double)

But just look up comparisons between different providers, maybe try their free or cancelable trials. The most important thing is, I think, having lots of somewhat “natural” dialoge with increasingly more and difficult vocabulary and you NEED those lessons where someone explains why words or grammar is used in a certain way, which Duolingo completely lacks. Sure, you can get it right by context and a lot of repetitions but this will take many more times than “immersing” yourself WITH some sort of guidance.

If you got the basics down and are at an A2-ish level, I would start watching and listening to a lot in your target language (Netflix, bilibili, podcasts), at this point you don’t really need more grammar lessons, just some refreshers, which you get from context, and soaking up vocabulary.

I just got another app. In my case Duolingo sucked trying to teach me a languagee.

Same here, German, had the stuff in school in year 4 or so. Official subject was just “biology”

Yikes

Hope you’ll get hacked

I don’t see the point in stardew Valley and witcher, they are pretty self explanatory. But going in blind into Minecraft? Yeah, you’re not getting anything done.

You canbe iinnocent and stupid, but these are not necessary good traits

I cannot with these codes… “Cop”. “Copsucker” 😭

I had this exact issue on an old gaming PC, PSU wouldn’t power the MB, but would be fine by itself. My GPU had a short, gods know how it happened. Juts keep disconnecting parts and try powering up again until you get the LED indicator. If everything is gone and it still won’t power on, it’s the MB. You could get a multimeter and measuring the power lines to see if there is a short (5V to ground, 12V to ground and I think there are 24V lines?). Maybe look for burst or burned capacitors and if you’re crafty and able to solder replace them. Otherwise replace the MB or defect parts.

But when I strip naked inside a shisha bar…

And so the curse of the spiral begins

My colleague (late 40s) is still like that. Buys only GoG or I guess physical, although it’s mostly codes nowadays anyway? I mean good for him but he misses out on like 80% of games.

I don’t think Steam will ever die but I hope it won’t fall into enshittification at some point.

I actually beat the game at level 1, no weapons, no items, controlling the character via brainwaves. And every time I died, I resetted the game.

An enemy has been slain

It has more than 20 users

OK this is hilarious

When you sell hammers you’ll likely have people using them to hit their own heads, which, understandably, they will put the hammer at fault. Now, we already put a big don’t hit this on your own head label on our hammer. Should we actually prohibit people from head hitting with our hammers? Probably not, since some users still want to hit heads with it. It’s just how hammers work.
