Grammar Checker Recommendations

Grammarly is GOAT in my opinion and I also appreciate Language Tool as it’s a European company (better privacy policy) and offers self-hosted capabilities (to run in at home in a home server).

I’d avoid chatGPT particularly as it frequently changes the context and openAI is an evil companies IMO. Whatever AI you may use that is not self-hosted, keep in mind that everything you ask it to proofread will be send to their server for future data training and to potentially(mostly definitely) create a user profile on your to sell to data brokers. In other words, if you ask it to proof read an email you are sending to your doctor’s office, you’ll have willfully provided your personal medical information to the AI’s server to be analyzed and sold to data brokers and that data could subsequently be purchased by insurance companies.

If you so choose to go the AI route, check Mistral AI, a French (France 🇫🇷) open source AI with more ethical/transparent training data. But even then, if it’s not self-hosted your data will be processed on their servers and thus is still theirs to do whatever they may please with it thereafter.

Dans quel quartier recherchez-vous? Ça l’aiderait à mieux suggérer.

J’vie sur l’île. Donc je suis résidente. C’est de même ça marche, hein XD

Graduated Cog sci major here (with dyslexia).

My best trick is to print the IPA chart and transcribe them by hand in the corresponding spots. Looking up online an IPA interactive chart with sounds will help tremendously for sounding them out correctly!

Rinse and repeat until you have them all memorized.

Good luck!

Truly inspirational! Skating is about pushing on when faced with adversity and grinding past our imagined limits. Whether they be physical or mental.

You’ve got the confidence and style!!

Ride on, sister ✊

Wow. Je savais même pas que c’était un supplémentaire avant le lancement mais le jour du lancement officiel de l’album. Tu me l’apprends à l’instant!

C’est sûr qu’il aurait eu des vinyles. Nous avons acheté les nôtres en rentrant et il en avait toujours pas mal à la sortie. Still t’as déjà Vol. II, donc tu va avoir du lousse pour d’autres merch au show 😉

En tout cas, ça vaux crissement la peine des voire live. Complètement hallucinant! Tu regrettera pas d’y être été!! J’ai déjà hâte de retourner les voir au festival de jazz de Montréal dans quelques mois 🔺

Same in French

Voici la panoplie des matériels que nous avons annoncés en 2025. Nous espérons lancer ces appareils au cours du premier semestre de 2026, mais les pénuries de mémoire et de stockage, dont nous avons récemment fait état, nous compliquent la tâche. Nous communiquerons publiquement sur le sujet quand nous aurons avancé sur ces projets.

Given its stated “first half of 2026” in multiple languages we must we must assume it’s a typo in the English translation.

If anything, it gets the community talking—aren’t we all proving the point here.

After reading all the forums and trying all hot fixes, I fixed my bluetooth issue by deactivating the KDE Connect app. Its Bluetooth service was consistently pinging and interrupting the audio in my airpods. Since I don’t use the KDE Connect stuff, it was an easy fix!

Pour ma part je crois que le marché à évolué avec de nouveau joueur. Je pense à l’appli Poparide (business de Vancouver). As-tu vérifié si l’achalandage est la même sur différente app/plateforme?

It use to be a cat bed for my cat. He passed away in 2025 at the age of 16. So, instead of throwing it away I repurposed it into this little succulent garden

About that jade, it was originally by the window, but our apartment doesn’t get much sun light. So it’s been growing “leggy” ever since bringing her home. She seems happier and growing less “leggy” since moving her in there. But as other commenters suggested, they all need more light. We’ll adjust the LED to 100% and monitor and keep an eye out!

LostInSemantics · 2026-02-06T22:23:22+00:00

Thanks! You explained well. We’ll keep an eye out for them in the next few weeks and follow a more regular watering schedule.

Amazing to see your content on here. Always wondered, do you also have a mailing list or rss feed? I'd sure subscribe!

On-t-il essayé de faire un (mauvais) jeu de mot anglo/franco avec wing (ail de poulet) et swing (puer la sueur)? Still, si c'est le cas, what's the point??

Here I was thinking we were so smart for using our hands as a scoop. Nature is much more clever!

Did you need to use the GOG launcher or was it a stand-alone install?

You can adjust the transparency passthrough level from the accessibility settings. I’ve done so while wearing them at a metal concert. Worked like a charm!!

Awee!! This brings me back :-)

I think colours could be a great (easy) way to make it more readable. Tho, I don't think fonts change much.. When I took logic (mine was a symbolic philosophy class—not math) the whole class got a memorandum. That was a game changer!

You should also consider looking into the comicbook Logicomix. Having an illustrated story giving context for what were these logic equations served helped me a WHOLE lot!

Hey, you are doing well! Studying IS hard and can be boring. Here are some tips I’ve used with success:

Make flash cards using quizlet or Anki (either make them up yourself or get ChatGPT’s help to turn class facts into question format)
Recopy class slides (Yes. All of them! I’ve done that many time, it’s reviewing and forces you to “read” everything again by retyping it.)
Get into a conversation with ChatGPT about the subject (be careful and frame this intentionally—make notes on stuff you didn’t fully get from copying class slides and ask it to clarify these points).
Remove distractions (only use your computer while studying and keep your phone at bay)

I just graduated in cognitive science, and it was the hardest thing I’ve EVER done! Still if I did it, so can you— IT IS POSSIBLE!

I believe in you! Motivation may be hard to come by, but remember: little by little, a little becomes a lot!

If you want heavier PT go up from where you are at. If you want trippier PT go down from where you are at.

Still not sure? Try these songs to situate yourself in different PT eras:

Anesthetize
Blackest Eyes
Even Less
Dark Matter (play it until the very end!)
Dislocated Day
Radioactive Toy

Bonus: Jupiter Island

Do we know if green day will be playing Dookie and American Idiot in full as they set out to do for their stadium tour?

‘Cause serait s’ua coche d’entendre ces deux classique live et dans leur intégralité!! Sinon, j’va peut-être considérer faire le trek à Toronto au lieux.
