You might be interested in Clozemaster for language learning. It has collections of most frequent words where you get a sentence with a word missing that you have to input. That way you just get blasted with hundreds and thousands of sentences in your target language.

Posts from this community popping up from time to time was actually what pushed me to start watching a few weeks ago. So, a big thank you to you all!

but in dota, really no one is a "healer"

And you'd rarely say "DPS", you'd call them carries, but I was trying to simplify the terminology for people who never played dota.

I haven't played dota in years, I was active between 2012-2017, so maybe only the bad things were saved in my memory. I mean, maybe I just suck, but I distinctly remember that when the carry sucks, fingers are more often than not pointed at the support, and when I prevent ganks, pull the creeps, double the stacks in the jungle and so forth, nobody gives a damn because only the late game is memorable.

In DotA it's not about boring gameplay as much as it is about flat out abuse. The enemy ganked you because your DPS pushed the lane too far? "Noob support". Your DPS ran in like rambo 1v5 and died? "Stupid support where are the heals". Often when your DPS goes rambo mode and changes his mind, your job is to get him out by dying instead because you're less valuable. And when you do that, they call you retarded because of you kill-death ratio. And of course when everything is going well, nobody notices you.

It's a tough and ungrateful life, but someone's gotta do it.

But people like them, no? Just to be clear, how people can enjoy autotuned mumbling about money and hookers is beyond me, but they are. Don't know about other genres, but in metal you still have a lot of bands that make complex and beautiful music (especially in symphonic metal), but not as many people listen to that, and often not because they don't know about alternatives. My own brother listens to mumble rap and other rappers that write lyrics that can be rearranged and you wouldn't notice because the only thing they do is rhyme, without building up to anything, and it's his choice, he likes listening to the same two songs in 50 variants.

It is very easy to find smaller bands that produce music with actual effort, and you can shove crappy music all you want to someone who doesn't like it, and it won't magically make them a fan, so the prevalence of autotuned simulations of strokes are due to people actually liking them, no?

I try not to judge these people too much because I myself often listen to extreme trve kvlt black metal which sounds like a vacuum cleaner to the uninitiated, so I tell myself that it's something like that. I never convince myself of that, but I try.

I fought him so many times I practically memorized everything he can do and how to spot it. It's a great fight because he's essentially all the previous berserkers in one. Tye Valkyrie queen defeated me though. I did everything you can do in the game besides beating her.

But if waves transmit information, and the same information comes at all sides, won't the signals that bounce off the reflector arrive after the waves with a direct line and thus transmit redundant information?

Eveyone needs it. Aristotle starts out his Nicomachean ethics stating that virtuous acts are first and foremost for the benefit of the virtuous person.

Platonic ethics should also really be taught widely, even more so than Aristotle's because they're easier to receive. Even if he has some hard to accept views such as that commiting injustice is worse than suffering it, everyone would benefit if children grew up with the notion that everyone does what they think best, and that those who do "wrong" things do so out of ignorance of what is good, rather than what we currently have where everyone knows what is objectively good, and those who don't do it are willfully wrongdoers and you just need to punish them enough and they'll become good.

Although you can have the best educational plans in the galaxy if the educarional system is crap. I don't know about the rest of the world, but where I'm from all education from primary school to a master's degree is just a bunch of information being thrown at you with 0 context and reasoning behind it, and when you're able to reproduce that information on demand (without any context): congratz, you're educated!

It's actually what motivated me to start hahaha. I wanted a gift from my corvid friends, but my corvid friends run the hell away if they even catch a glimpse of me in the corner of the room through a window. I guess because it's a small balcony instead of a large, open and safe space. Even though I gave up on the idea and now feed them for no other reason than to feed them, I wish they would at least be chill with my existence. I'm fairly certain they think nuts grow out of flower pots.

But damn they look cool.

Very relatable. I started leaving food for some local magpies about a year ago, and now they wake me up every morning at 6.

I once had a problem when suddenly some tits arrived and started stealing all the food. A huge magpie would take like one hazelnut and be on its way, while these small fuckers would eat like pigs, and then hide what was left. They'd take the nuts and shove them somewhere between the flowers on my balcony. Tough the magpies too have often burried nuts in the soil below the flowers, only to dig them out again.

And it was so cool to watch some sparrow coming and going a dozen times to pull out some weeds that have been growing (I left the pots with the flowers outside over winter, the flowers died and weeds started to grow), and then carry them to a hole in a wall where a brick is missing which presumably is the nest.

But it was so so cool when I got woken up a few days in succession to a silhouette of a majestic crow standing on my balcony (my bed looks directly through the balcony window facing north-east). Crows are so cool, and magpies are really beatutiful, though extremely skittish.

English is barely gendered. In Slavic languages, as someone said, verbs are conjugated differently based on gender. In Serbian for instance, to say "I saw him", you would say "Video sam ga" if you were a man, and "Videla sam ga" if you were a woman. In Arabic I think even more things vary based on gender, like "to you" has different forms based on whether "you" are a man or a woman. It might not be specifically that, but I distinctly recall Arabic using gender-based forms for something that Slavic languages don't.

I still remember when I tried to run a binary on a different architecture and got the message: "Bad elf magic"
