Babar. They eat Babar, the second b is soft, just like Babar’s flesh.

Skyrim’s NPCs sound and act like they’ve been lobotomised
So they’re going for a Danish accent I see

Ah so all the control freaks and the “tell me more about you and by that I mean tell me more about why you love the MTA system map” kinda crowd, I see.

- Comment on I spent a year on Linux and forgot to miss Windows 2 weeks ago:
I just tried it after probably 5 years and it’s much better than what it used to be. The workflow is close to what I’m used to in NX, so far at least.
- Comment on I spent a year on Linux and forgot to miss Windows 2 weeks ago:
I just tried freeCAD and it’s night and day compared to what it used to be. I can actually design simple parts.
Thanks for having me check my opinion haha.
- Comment on You can count past 1,000 on your fingers by using binary, instead of just 10 2 weeks ago:
Why stop at binary? You can do ternary with three positions for each finger: extended, bent, curled.

Not for me. I wish it did.

Waiting patiently for commercial software to be ported to Linux:
- creative suites, I think Canva is working on Affinity for Linux but they want to release their iPad version first. Wine is working right now but there are a few things I’m getting tired of (navigating folders and trying to print). I know, Gimp, Inkscape and Krita.
- 3D modeling software for engineers, like solidworks or NX. I’m trying Blender add-ons for CAD but it’s not as capable. Don’t you dare suggest FreeCAD.
- Music production software, esp. Ableton.
- Comment on QWERTY Phones Are Really Trying to Make a Comeback This Year 2 weeks ago:
Y’all are allowed to hot glue a Bluetooth keyboard to the back of your phone you know.
Jokes aside, I wonder why there aren’t more protective cases with a built in sliding keyboard for phones. Would be cool.
The minimal phone looks like a brick and I understand why the e-ink is a choice that forces you to not use your phone as much but I’m not ready.
- Comment on What if the Internet Goes Down? - 15 Jan, 7PM CET 2 weeks ago:
I think Ham radio means hobby and amateur radio, I.e. not professional. Radio is a type of radiation at very long wavelength. From the wiki: “long waves can diffractaround obstacles like mountains and follow the contour of the Earth (ground waves), shorter waves can reflect off the ionosphere and return to Earth beyond the horizon (skywaves), while much shorter wavelengths bend or diffract very little and travel on a line of sight, so their propagation distances are limited to the visual horizon.”
Others have explained mesh pretty well.
- Comment on What if the Internet Goes Down? - 15 Jan, 7PM CET 2 weeks ago:
Just installed two Bluetooth mesh messaging apps on my phone, just in case. Is there one y’all recommend? Are BIT and Berkanan ok?
I already have too many hobbies, not going to get into amateur radio. I guess I’ll go buy a battery powered radio receiver when I get a chance, or one with a crank.

- Comment on We all took foreign languages in school and none of us can actually speak those languages 3 weeks ago:
Ah merci. Ravi de vous parler en Français.
- Comment on We all took foreign languages in school and none of us can actually speak those languages 3 weeks ago:
That’s the hardest part of gaining conversational skills: being ok with not being understood, ok being laughed at a little bit. If you’re afraid of speaking the language you’ll never progress.
- Comment on We all took foreign languages in school and none of us can actually speak those languages 3 weeks ago:
Et bien vous savez quoi, on peut s’entraîner un peu. Pourquoi pas s’entraider? Je vous parle en français et vous me répondez en espagnol ?

- Comment on What's it going to take to truly stop the US? 4 weeks ago:
How is the US population to unite, self organize into militias and erect barricades with the current surveillance state and social media polarization?
Americans are staying at home doom scrolling and getting angry about their scarecrow neighbors they are made to dislike.
We know for sure that Americans are not ready to do anything more than voting and praying to answer any form of the social question. Haven’t been for a while. We’re on the slope of them not caring about the political question either. It’s all bread, circuses and surveillance algorithms.
- Comment on Room temperature IQ is a far bigger insult in Europe than America. 4 weeks ago:
I hate this insult… if you are going to tell someone they are dumb just tell them they are dumb.
Why do we have to dance around with fancy concepts like temperature and IQ to throw an insult?
What even is temperature?? Little electrons vibrating for some reason and at a macro scale can be sensed as some energy level? I don’t even know but you know who else vibrates? Your mom.
Yeah that’s right, we don’t need science to insult people here.

- Comment on Steam Replay is live and notes only 14% "of playtime spent by all Steam users" was for 2025 releases 1 month ago:
My method of patient gaming is to only buy games that are $10 or less
Just got subnautica, hades 1, disco Elysium, oxygen not included, hollow knight (I’m sad to learn I don’t like platformers that much…), kerbal space program.
Shit, I have so much to play for the next 5 years just there.
Factorio and Hades 2 were my exceptions, got them full price.
