Yep. Besides, in the case of Galician and Catalan (especially the former) they are endangered languages; there is nowhere where onmy Galician is the official languages, and bad policies are pushing it to the brink of extinction. Most Galician you hear today is heavily influenced by Spanish, so having spaces where the language is protected, in this context, online spaces, is critical to its salvation.

Spaniard here. Paraphrasing famous and international businessman Michael Scott, “You know what? I’m going to start doing it even harder”.

The reason I still use Reddit is that, as a polyglot, there is barely any content in most languages I speak in the Fediverse. It’s already difficult enough to find content in Galician or Catalan/Valencian on mainstream social media such as Reddit or Instagram. I did delete my Reddit account, stopped using the site for weeks but… I found no alternative? The closest was Mastodon, but I never really liked Twitter’s format which is basically what Mastodon is, so it is not for me. And, of course, there is absolutely NOTHING here on Lemmy in those languages. So, between feeding them with free data or not being able to use my languages at all (because I live in a place where none of them are spoken) I had to choose the lesser evil.

I’ll of course hold on to my current laptop for as long as it lasts, but a Framework will be up next.

Same with Spanish: “lado oculto de la Luna”, ‘hidden side of the Moon’.

I thought of trying it myself, but I just remembered I no longer have a ChatGPT account lol

They didn’t change it; always has been.

“Rapaz” = Guy, as in a young man, in Galician / Bird of prey in Spanish.

I’m Spanish, and the title not sounding natural to native English speakers is something that happens very often when writing in a language that you only learned at an older age.

Keep in mind that living in an environment surrounded by a different language than the one you artificially try to communicate on comes with such disadvantage, because the grammar structures are not the same and, yet, your brain unconsciously tries to apply them because it is what it feels right or natural to do, even if it isn’t.

PD: El País is a Spanish newspaper.

Here you have another view I took

Sure thing you can. It’s called “La Pedriza” and it is located in central Spain. It is a popular hiking destination, even for families with kids!

As I grow older, I appreciate going out to natural spaces more than ever. This one is from yesterday’s excursion.

I, as a Debian boy, respect Arch as a fellow community-held distro.

Even Richard Stallman uses Linux.

Thank you for your insightful comment. If I may incur once again in noobieness, what precisely do you mean when you say the “repository” of my distribution? Do you mean the pieces of software than come preinstalled with the OS itself?

Hi! Thank you for your comment.

You are right in what you said; I should’ve phrased my question better. What I meant was that I didn’t want the ChatGPT-like generative AI kind of thing that tends to hallucinate included in my translation solution of choice. I had just visited the Reverso website prior to writing this post and it was all like AI this, and AI that, and, frankly, it’s gotten to the point where it is simply fatiguing to have those two letters shovelled up my throat permanently wherever I go.

So, yeah, I of course wouldn’t mind my translator to keep using the kind of technology that makes translators function, but do despise the slop they are trying so hard for us to accept.

I have downloaded, but have not tried yet, Dialect on my computer, and am still looking for a solution for my phone.

Thanks again.

For real, not having the mouse slows you down big time, even though I’m more or less skilled at keyboard shortcuts

OMG I just realized about that hahahaha
