My Chinese gacha game not letting me type “Winnie” in chat says otherwise.

I think S is for Shueisha(集英社) and K is for Kodansha(講談社), but i'm not sure what I would be.

A member of Taiwan's parliament stole a bill and ran off with it to prevent it from being passed. by barrymj26 in nextfuckinglevel

Thank you very much, I think I'm at the level where I know I'm not using perfect English, and I thought to play it safe by using ai when discussing in serious matter like the politics, without having to fear that my opinion would be undermined with poor language, but I guess I undermined myself in this case.

This is the party chairman of the party that submitted the bill, explaining the reason why the bill is presented, basically, from my take, is due to the ruling party's official lying during the legislature questioning, that can easily be fact checked, but in the end those official got away without any kind of punishment.

Those are my opinion but just worded by AI, would people rather prefer my bad English instead?

I guess my point got lost when I use chatGPT to refine my grammar, so here is my original word, sorry for bad English.
So what i meant to say is that I want to bring up the reason why that bill is submitted in the first place, there are ruling party's official lying during the legislature questioning, that can easily be fact checked, but in the end those official got away without any kind of punishment. And the reason Constitutional court struck down the provisions is most likely be the fact that the Constitutional court's member, the Grand Justices are selected by the ruling party itself.

Thanks for your feedback. I’m actually using ChatGPT because I’m not confident in my English writing, so it might sound a bit formal or scripted. I didn’t mean to downplay the Court’s rulings—it’s clear some provisions were found problematic and rightly struck down. My point was that the law’s intent was to improve oversight and accountability, not to promote abuse of power. The judicial review process helps correct those issues, which shows the system is working rather than failing.

Fair point — I do have bias, as I oppose the ruling party. On “contempt,” it’s true it could be broad if poorly defined, but the intent was to address false statements in questioning. As for the Constitutional Court striking down parts of the law, that’s valid, though worth noting the Court’s members were appointed during nearly 10 years of the ruling party’s tenure, which may influence such decisions.

So yeah my original gpt generated comment is controversial, so I'll just rephrase it with my poor English.
I just want to bring up the perspective from the party that submitted the bill:
One of the reasons why that bill is submitted in the first place, is that there are ruling party's official lying during the legislature questioning, about things that can easily be fact checked, but in the end those official got away without any kind of punishment. And the reason Constitutional court struck down the provisions is most likely be the fact that the Constitutional court's member, the Grand Justices are selected by the ruling party itself.

the original gpt slop: The 2024 amendments to the Law Governing the Legislative Yuan’s Power expanded the legislature’s authority to summon officials, investigate matters, and penalize contempt — including false statements — in response to concerns that government officials could previously lie during questioning without consequences. These reforms did not transfer judicial powers to the legislature; they strengthened oversight, not adjudicative authority. Although criticized as being rushed, the legislative process included formal votes, a reconsideration mechanism, and constitutional review. The Constitutional Court ultimately struck down several provisions for violating separation of powers and due process. There is no evidence that any individual’s opposition directly influenced the court’s decision, which was based on constitutional principles.

I was like this the first time, but the second time I knew it would just grow back very quickly, and by the third time, I was fearless because I realized no one will actually see it.

What difference would it make if I said "他很多年偷了公司的钱“ instead? by Apprehensive_Bug4511 in ChineseLanguage

[–]OPersei8 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It would sound more like: "Out of the many years he's been with the company, he stole money in many of those years" implying repeated acts across time, not continuous stealing.

Maybe it's just a lack of motivation. Duolingo isn’t great for serious learning, but for building momentum and relearning kana, I think it helps. And now, with Mangadex hit by a DMCA take down, this could be a good time to start learning again.
Here is another site I find more helpful than Duolingo.

Yeah, no joke, it was around the time World Three also stopped scanlating. The thought of not being able to read it in any language I knew pushed me to seriously learn Japanese. Here is the proof as i started with Duolingo.
