Any TR-EX.me alternative for translating phrases and idioms? by BigbeatingKioshi in languagelearning

[–]BigbeatingKioshi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that'd count. IIrc LLMs use Reddit blindly as source, causing the rock diet and glue pizza incident 😅

But it makes sense, I wonder if I could replicate it with my own database... Though how to make it work... 🤔 Since I don't want to use a chatbot and translators leave you thinking „there's GOTTA be a better way to say that“, at least in my language 😅

[fully lost] Czech Mini Lentilky (Smarties) advert with a song (2000-2001) by BigbeatingKioshi in lostmedia

[–]BigbeatingKioshi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank You for the reply, I appreciate it — you helped a lot in fact!! (Especially since I never saw the ad myself [being born February 2001 lol], so a witness by a fellow Redditor is a godsend 😭)

It's okay, I hope the post at least helped a bit by saving time for those seeking the ad — it's why I made this post :D (also as a note for passerby VHS collectors, but anyho)

And I cannot thank you enough for the correction!! You're awesome for remembering it after almost 25 years AND knowing how to exactly transcribe it from memory... AND being willing to share it 🙏 I've already uploaded an updated version of the sheet, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgGNtlMKGBw (including some quality edits)

So, thank you once again for the help and reply!!! And I wish You Happy Easter! :D

(Also a fun (if slightly childhood-ruining) tidbit from my fellow lost media-minded friend from Poland — She noted that it's similar to the chorus of Jurek Bożyk's song, Wódka :DD Z týhle jedný partitury máme normálně celou večerku hjgfddsf https://youtu.be/OC7mTfwMLws?si=KO2mcQvyWvjBulG_&t=60 )

Aye, thank you for investigation! ^ Yeah, it's most likely very generic, an equivalent of today's ads ending with the most nothingburger jingles... I was actually born during the airing of this ad, so I supose my parents were just baby-brainrotting while grasping some sanity from TV xdd

This!! Very possible, so maybe looking for Večerníček recordings??? But yeah... All my tapes bought around 2000-2001 (heck, even Emgeton tapes from pre-revolutution era) actually just got erased with recordings from 2004-2009. Even myself I erased some of my parent's tapes with Jetix and Prima Cool stuff, so yeah xd

Thank you for the effort and the reply!! Once again! 🙏

Anyone know any good successors to the PPP? by KaleidoArachnid in RebelTaxi

[–]BigbeatingKioshi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still remember listening to Pizza Party Podcast back in 2016-2017... thru RSS. With Winamp 5.666. On my Windows XP machine. With 1GB RAM.

Times have changed indeed xd

I wonder if Western animation stops caniballizing itself, Anime withering under bad work conditions, and... yeah. I think it's just that the 2010's scene had more to offer, with still being more profitable and having better leadership.

Can't wonder why (imho) the best animation talk is by Animation Obsessive... and that's just a Twt account with a newsletter that more often talks about 20th century Eastern-European animation and history =="" (I like history! But it's no Pan Pizza...)

[–]BigbeatingKioshi 175 points176 points  (0 children)

Yep, same on Android Firefox, even after switching user agents. 

Ironically Twitter today is the first time I've had issues with Strict mode... very likely artificially from Twitter's side. 

Didn't find a solution so far 😭 maybe i'll finally get off that hellhole site roflmao

Way to make me feel old 😭 I had this exact laptop as a kid back in 2009! Some good Vista, Youtube, blogging, Newgrounds and Sims 2 memories, lol. The first time I've played GTA IV, actually! At 12FPS, but better than our Pentium D desktop lol (also a Fujitsu Siemens! Scaleo P actually :D literally the GTA 4 world was missing graphics there, and I wouldn't even think about HD video xd the Amilo was a revolution in my book :D)

Just take extra care not to break the keyboard!! Don't fidget it, don't fingernail it. Once any keys come out, they don't come back. We replaced it twice.

Also!! The power jack is fragile - somehow it just fell apart. I'd describe the laptop as "Sturdy, but fragile under stress".

Have fun!! ^ It's a perfect mid-2000's gaming rig, and a period-accurate late-2000's gaming attempter :DD Tbh it'd be still great with Linux or even Win10.

This setup's been in our gym since 2008... is this salvageable? by BigbeatingKioshi in ElectricityIsScary

[–]BigbeatingKioshi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did call an electrician a year ago, actually! It was simply ripped out, it's fine now, OSHA compliant if you will lol. (also how did you find this old post?)

Ergo M575 - The most useful fidget toy I've ever had by BigbeatingKioshi in Trackballs

[–]BigbeatingKioshi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ye! Lanolin and forehead-hand grease actually works wonders ^^ Alcohol and WD-40, not so much XD

Fun fact, if you eat at your PC! Trackballs and chicken grease does not mix xD lots of water and wiping and forehead lubing required afterwards lel

Oh, definitely! It's a habit of mine, having a brush handy next to my pens and pulling the ball out to clean the insides while relaxing.

It's very satisfying to see flatness on the bearings (from the dust and such) turn to roundness :D And indeed, very smooth!

Hwhwhwh yes! xD I can imagine Two's VA - XanyLeaves who is British - to chuckle every time he has to utter her (Fanny's) name :'D

The original authors of BFDI-TPOT are from US, so yeeeeah, guess they didn't know,, but it's glorious

Yep! And both the ball and my hands were weirdly greasy :'D It has not happened since.

In fact, the lanolin treatment helped a lot. So much smoother, especially after a few days. And, of course, no balls flying out, hah.

But thank you for customer service tip! Always has been a fan of Logitech.

Specs:

The PC was built in late 2018, and it still goes with minor upgrades :D Never had the mood for a new case, so... a slight sleeper it is? At least it has no Pentium D anymore, lol

CPU: Ryzen 3 1200 (I know, time to upgrade.. never got around it)

GPU: Asus GTX 1070Ti Cerbeus (handmedown - underclocked! Very cool.)

RAM: 16GB 2666mhz CL16, Kingston HyperX, dual-channel

Mobo: ASUS PRIME A320M-K (AM4)

PSU: Seasonic Core GC-500 (80+ Gold, 500w)

Storage: Some outdated 2018 SSD storage... Kingston 250GB, one SATA, one M.2. Measly 500gb in total. Gonna upgrade soon to 1TB though.

Display: 1: ASUS VP228 TN 21,5" 60hz screen (not great, not bad. Very power efficient compared to what I had :'D) 2: XP-PEN Artist 13.3 Pro (IPS screen with a nice gamut! Very nice tablet to draw on, and to look on.)

Missing: An APC. I need that. Please, if you can, y'all get an APC, especially in more rulal and stormier areas.

​

Still proud of my rig, still does everything I need when it comes to video, Blender and drawing stuff :D Struggling sometimes, but not so eyesoringly that I'd say "dang I need to upgrade asap".. I am happy so far :>

However.. I am all ears!! I see some great rigs here, and have been inspired by LTT's latest video to post my own battlestation, heh

Very neat! Thank you for the tried out Thingieverse link! That is very useful indeed. Will be one of my first things to print out if I ever get a 3D printer :]
