I like city building games and puzzles. I like other things as well, but that's not important right now.

  • This doean't feel like a microblog meme.

  • This one goes out to all the shitposters I've temporarily blocked until the fad blows over. No hard feelings.

  • The Huns, on the other hand, were very recent arrivals to Europe. Some suspect that they were related to the nomadic peoples who tormented China not long before; others suggest a more ‘generic’ Central Asian origin. In either case, the main interest of the Huns was “Loot, pasturage, domination”, possibly in that order.

    I feel so stupid, i always assumed Mulan (disney film) was based on mongol invasion because i knew that the great wall was built to keep out mongols. I also always thought that this meant the film's happy ending was a mirage because they'd be conquered shortly after.

    I lacked the imagination to conceive that china had to fight a nomad invasion on more than one occasion, and never understood why they were calling them "huns" in the song 🗿

    Always nice to learn some history, though.

  • Professor Witten demonstrates his appreciation for Linus Torvald's counting style

  • Hmm maybe I'm wrong about the meaning of the post then, it's just what i got from the images

  • I hate the fact that everyone is on mainstream corporate platforms...

  • I think discord in particular would be a great place to recruit new users from, but i think one thing that could expediate the arrival of the specifoc people you want is to have communities they might find interesting.

    So Maybe make a community specifically for chinese people/ about china, and post some stuff there (memes are pretty handy at getting people to stay on lemmy!)

    That way when you ask people to join lemmy, you have a sales pitch in the form of existing communities they'd like.

    Some selling points we have at the moment are:

    • dank memes
    • real people, minimal/zero AI
    • in depth conversations
    • Simplicity of site
    • quietness/peaceful (though what we're advocating for here seems to be to change that, which is also fine)

  • I think they're saying he counts with his fingers facing himself so it looks like swearing. My mother does this when talking to me and i genuinely have to stop her every time. It's only when you do it in a conversatiin to someone that it's bothersome, of course

  • TIL the word "crap" predated the inventions of Thomas Crapper by many years. His name was a happy coincidence.

  • Well I think because people already say "for clarity," And making it more succinct is soldier-like, making boss feel important (like a "Dom"). I can kind of see how a boss might, incorrectly, see "for clarity, you want me to do x?" Or"to be clear I need to do x?" As "I can't believe you're asking me to do that, idiot" but then not seen clarity: x as a challenge

  • Beginner Spanish learning recommendation, that aren't duolingo? (YouTube, app, website or whatever)

    Jump

  • This lady, Butterfly Spanish. And Anki flashcards - the app seems really backwards at first but it really works.

    I agree that Duolingo is annoying. Felt like I got somewhere with it but it wastes so much of your time.

  • Anyone feeling like doesn't belong anywhere?

    Jump

  • I guess you need to think about why you feel you don't belong in those places. Are the reasons contradictory, or are they both more similar than you think? Is it a question of who you surround yourself with (or whether you're meeting people)?
