Maybe not concrete goals with set time frames, but what I’d like to do is…

• become reasonably proficient in Norwegian Sign Language
• get better with Norwegian prepositions, word recollection, and specialized or technical vocabulary
• get a few grades higher in Kanji and perhaps start branching out into Chinese more actively
• improve my listening skills and fluency in Russian

Du burde kanskje flytte forklaringen til symbolene til toppen av siden.

If you go to “trending” or “recently added” it will say “scope : federated” near the top of the page. If you go to “local videos” it will only show local videos sorted by default by upload date. If you go to any of these pages and click “more filters” you can choose under “scope” whether it shows federated videos, whether to sort by popularity or upload date etc, which languages or categories to display, etc.

Still, it is difficult to find good content on PeerTube in my experience. Your best hope is probably using sepiasearch.org rather than the search feature of your own instance.

I did not mean f###ot in a bad way I just mean you gay people have a lot of drama.

Makes me think of The Boondocks: “[It’s] n###a technology — technology for n###as. Only don’t start trippin’ and shit, callin’ me a racist, 'cause I don’t mean n###a in a disrespectful way — I mean it as a general term for ignorant motherfucker.”

Fun fact: the opposite of estrogenize is in fact to androgenize. No relation to androgynize with a Y, they’re just one letter apart and for many speakers 100% homophonic, but they’re very different in meaning, if we’re talking about men’s sex hormone intake.

I should’ve gone into detail, but I’m just not in the mood to argue sometimes. I’ll get back to you if I do.

That’s the Republican strategy when they’re in the minority and the legislation in question is stuff that actually helps people. Real POSIWID hours

This is very superficial.

Honestly sometimes I think every country should have its own Sinn Féin of sorts. Just a party that never takes its seats. Yeah, try calling it the “same thing” when you can’t pass any legislation or form coalitions or get anything done because a third of the seats in the national legislature are literally left empty on purpose. Don’t like it? Well, it’s your problem that your party is literally less electable than No Representation!

The same thing we do every night, Pinky.

LLM/AI tools can massively decrease the cost of dubbing media into smaller languages, including the cost of creating audio descriptions for the visually impaired. I don’t know the extent to which these uses are actually being implemented at the moment, but yeah. It’s by all means possible, and in my eyes pretty cool. These uses would not replace real people, would not require unethical practices, but would still reduce the workload.

I’m kind of disappointed by the ways in which AI is being presented as a “terk er jerbs” thing in fields where it has no rightful place, the ways in which AI is presented as a “procedurally generated Netflix and chill with my robot girlfriend” hyperreal horrorshow, the ways in which AI is being used for scams. AI absolutely has its places in society, and helping with accessibility and localization is one of them.

Edit: Yes, and also writing closed captions, and arguably even using deepfakes to “dub” shows and movies into sign languages could be potential uses.

There’s also how chatbots can be used as language study buddies for those without the ability to talk to actual native speakers, although I haven’t had much success with this, personally.

The jokester in me wants to say TARDIS → TARDES by analogy of penis → penes but the fact of the matter is that Time and Relative Dimensions in Space doesn’t really pluralize even when it isn’t abbreviated

This is basically just Skwerl but for “young people who are good with computers” slang

How exactly do I revoke my consent?

Honestly, it was very cathartic to write, so I appreciate your sympathy very much. Sometimes I just need to scream at the world, you know. So just reading my attestation is all the support you could give right now.

So I wish you the best as well. All animosity has dissipated. Take care of yourself and stay curious.
