- Comment on Why don't more people use Bilibili instead of YouTube? 1 day ago:
It’s a really bad platform in general and has a lot of censorship issues as well. Good for Chinese content though…
- Comment on Why don't more people use Bilibili instead of YouTube? 1 day ago:
It’s possible to sign up without a Chinese phone number and get a higher resolution but yes it kinda sucks. I only use it for Chinese content.
- Comment on What will be the future of "Social Media Investigations"? Is every country gonna start checking for social media posts before permitting entry? 6 days ago:
Tbh the only country I ever worry about will actively try to deport me for just trying to be a tourist, on some bogus charge after checking social media, would be the US. Can’t ever think of any other country that would care or act with the same sense of superiority as the US.
US is also like the only country, as far as I know, in the world that presumes you want to immigrate there and you have to prove them otherwise to be let through

Very nice. I played it for a bit recently but I quit at the water temple, didn’t intend to but it kinda made me. To no ones surprise I guess?

Haha yeah probably a good idea

I gotta rewatch it from the start to even start watching S3… So tiring
- Comment on How does Netflix, HBO and other services get their subtitles? Are they now using AI to help translate? 1 month ago:
Completely machine translated subtitles often lack quality and nuance to their translations. I’d rather have a human getting paid to do proper subtitling instead. But yes, if the option is having zero subtitles instead, then sure. That’s not the case with Netflix etc though, they can definitely afford proper subtitling.
- Comment on How does Netflix, HBO get their subtitles? Are they now using AI to help translate? 1 month ago:
Yeah didn’t think about this. Then quality might differ heavily I’m guessing.

- Comment on how do I avoid becoming conformist, lazy and completely incapable of learning something new? 2 months ago:
And with it, less reading on Lemmy, more reading real books :)

Learning a new language, and with it, a new way to see the world, is a true life hack.
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 2 months ago:
From my limited experience with Obsidian, I still preferred Logseq actually. And the syncing is easily done by just storing the markdown files in a cloud folder. But yeah, it’s subjective for sure.
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 2 months ago:
I’d say Logseq is better than any note-taking alternative that works in the same way. It’s a bit different to regular note-taking apps as it acts more as a knowledge database based on tags, than with a regular file-folder structure. Also I prefer Actual Budget to YNAB, as it’s starting to have even more features than YNAB and actually supports things like bank syncing for major parts of Europe that even YNAB doesn’t. And it’s free to host yourself or really cheap to host through PikaPods. But it’s hard to say “objectively” because in the end, a lot of it is subjective. If people are used to running one program, it’ll be hard to switch to another, even if it’s “objectively” better.
The largest issue with FOSS applications is that many contributors don’t have any UX/UI knowledge, which is a huge factor in why people choose one program over another. I’d argue GIMP is a mess compared to Photoshop, even if GIMP is able to many, many things that Photoshop is able to.
- Comment on Good to exercise at home instead of gym? 3 months ago:
I started with yoga and did it for over a year before I started going to the gym again. Fully doable
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
I have a huge passion for Chinese. At the same time I still pursued a career in IT. The reason being that just learning a language won’t open any doors, you need marketable skills as well that employers value. I’d recommend studying for it on your own time or during an extended time off from work. Either way, it takes an enormous amount of hours to get to a proficiency which will have a positive effect in your career. In much less time you’ll be able to learn something else and probably have a higher chance of being employed and also earning more.
Nonetheless, learning a language is incredibly enriching.
