zaphod@sopuli.xyzto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•We really don't want to talk about our problems82·6 days agoJust goes to show how insane society has become that you’d rather go to therapy than take a 29 day break by being lost at sea.
zaphod@sopuli.xyzto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Sincerely, your literally poorest europoor.265·8 days agoHonestly no, I think it’s worse here. I blocked so many communities because they’re just about US politics, but that stuff is still everywhere, even in generic meme communities.
zaphod@sopuli.xyzto Hardware@lemmy.world•Maxell MXCP-P100 is a portable cassette player with modern features like Bluetooth and USB-C - LiliputingEnglish10·8 days agoIt doesn’t necessarily require a different tape head for recording, but ideally a different head is used. For recording it should have an erase head though, otherwise you’re recording over what is already on the tape. Digitising tape in high quality requires a good playback mechanism that has low wow and flutter, I doubt this thing has that, most recent portable cassette players had the same bad mechanism.
In general, most words follow certain patterns, for example words ending in -ion are always feminine, -age is always masculine, most words that end in a consonant that is not “n” are masculine (la mort evidently doesn’t follow these patterns). For most words using the wrong article sounds unnatural to the trained ear. Most new words are either derived from old words and keep their gender or they are picked up from other languages and adapted to French either by sound or by meaning (only works if there’s already a french word with the same or similar meaning). Sometimes it’s undecided, for example le covid and la covid are both acceptable, personally I think it should be le as it sounds more natural.

Ot- => ear
rhin- => nose
laryng- => throat
or just ENT, I’ve heard that being used.

zaphod@sopuli.xyzto Technology@lemmy.world•Last year China generated almost 3 times as much solar power as the EU did, and it's close to overtaking all OECD countries put together (whose combined population is 1.38 billion people)English21·11 days agoTrucks? If you move coal for a power plant using trucks you’re going to need a lot of trucks, you use trains or ships instead, or just build the power plant next to the mine and use conveyor belts.

How? I would’ve said coal is very reliable, it worked for over a hundred years.
The noun death is always la mort (le petite morte as used by the other poster is just wrong). The dead person can be le mort (masculine) or la morte (feminine). The adjective for dead is mort for masculine and morte for feminine, as in l’arbre mort (the dead tree, masc.) or la fleure morte (the dead flower, fem.).
No, that would be la petite mort.
It’s also devolving, having less features, being slower/less optimised and so on. Cramming “AI” into it isn’t devolving, it’s enshitification

When you watch a video you still get the recommendations in the sidebar.

If you give the driver enough time to act, which tesla doesn’t. They turn it off a second before impact and then claim it wasn’t in self-driving mode.
