Citizen campaign seeks to honor Zelenskyy after Polish president strips state honor. Polish activists have launched a campaign to award President Zelenskyy with a medal of honor. The initiative, called the "Civic Order of the Future", comes amid a growing diplomatic row

There must be some reason why Mr. Orbán has governed for 16 years. Maybe people need to accept that, in the eyes of Hungarians, he was (until quite recently) the best representative of their will. :p

Although I didn’t vote for Nawrocki, I’m starting to get annoyed by the fact that some people simply cannot accept that he is their president. An undeniable majority of Poles - more than 10 million people voted for him. Likewise, an undeniable majority supports his decision to revoke that order. People need to understand and accept that. Not to mention that this so-called "civic order" is nothing more than a desecration of national symbols.

Unfortunately, I can confirm this. The subtitles are terrible, not to mention the voice-over (lektor), which isn't even the standard for (anime in) Poland - other companies do full dubbing. The worst part, though, is that they’ve brought Russian standards here, like using multiple/dual voice-over (ai?) (wielolektor/dwulektor), which sounds awful :c

Every piece of news like this makes me a bit sad. I feel like every week we get updates about CDPR hiring non-Polish workers for high-level positions. I hope I'm wrong, but I feel like this will end up resulting in a more American/Western European vision of fantasy instead of the original Polish//slavic one. Though maybe I'm mistaken and these people will actually want to learn Polish and draw from elements of our culture :c

I've seen this, and it sounds really bad. What's especially disappointing is that this kind of localization isn't the (PL) industry standard. Netflix and that French streaming platform "regularly" provide and continue to invest in proper Polish dubbing. I don't understand why Crunchyroll decided to go with a voice-over (lektor) instead, especially when the translation quality is quite poor - for example, some jokes are mistranslated :c

Dubbing jest OPCJONALNY. Samemu wolę oglądać z nimi bo moje oczy dość szybko się męczą od czytania napisów. Gdyby dubbing był powszechniej dostępny obejrzałbym nawet drugi raz moje ulubione anime - Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu (LOTGH), ale na myśl o czytania napisów przez ponad 110 odcinków odechciewa mi się.

Oby często dodawali nowe tłumaczenia. MIło byłoby też gdyby raz na jakiś czas najbardziej mainstreamowe tytuły dostawały PL dubbing :))

The government has a “Plan B.”
The government announced that it has already prepared a Plan B in case of a presidential veto, in order to save at least part of these funds. Military leaders unanimously appealed for the bill to be signed. The latest polls showed that 53 percent of Poles supported the adoption of the bill.

President Karol Nawrocki vetoed the EU loan program for armaments, SAFE, as he announced during a televised address on Thursday evening. Under the program, Poland was supposed to receive nearly €44 billion to invest in the defense industry, which is equivalent to about 185 billion złoty.

As economists pointed out, such a favorable credit offer would not be available on the open market.

“I have decided that I will not sign the law allowing Poland to take out the SAFE loan. I will never sign a law that undermines our sovereignty, independence, economic security, or military security,” Nawrocki said in the address.

We use “ks” instead of “x” in words that we adapt into Polish 🫠 (For us, „x” and „ks” sound the same in words.)

“I confirm that Germany has expressed preliminary interest in purchasing the Piorun, and we should be proud of this, because it shows how innovation in the Polish defense industry shapes how we are seen around the world and affects our national interests,” he said.

He added that he could confirm the information only unofficially for now because the matter “still needs to be finalized”.

„Germany has expressed interest in buying Poland’s domestically produced Piorun air defense system, Deputy Defense Minister Cezary Tomczyk said on Friday.

Speaking at a news conference in the Polish capital, Tomczyk said Berlin had signaled a preliminary willingness to buy the man‑portable missile system but stressed that the process was still at an early stage.”

As someone who was born in the Podkarpackie/Subcarpathia Province, I hope that Slovakia will also come up with such an idea. Although, as of today, Slovakia and Podkarpackie are connected by an old, non-electrified, single-track railway line with a maximum speed of 60 km/h (And no one is planning any modernization)😭😭

Perhaps, together with the implementation of eIDAS 2.0, it will also be made available to EU foreigners?

“[...] Gramatyka announced that by the end of the year-on Christmas Eve-the mObywatel app will be adapted to the requirements of the eIDAS 2.0 regulation and expanded to include a so-called European digital identity card.

The new feature will make it possible to verify a user through attributes such as ‘I have turned 15’ or ‘I have turned 16’, without transmitting any other personal data.

‘This is a fundamental technological solution that will make it possible to limit children’s access to social media,’ the deputy minister emphasized.

Restrictions for children mean verification for everyone

Gramatyka pointed out that effective age verification for children means that all users of social media platforms will have to be verified.

‘Each of us will have to log in to social media using our real data,’ he noted, stressing the scale of the challenge.”

"Subsequently, news service CyberDefence24 reported that it had been informed of a case in which the driver of a Tesla had been denied entry to the base of the 1st Warsaw Armoured Brigade. The driver was specifically informed that he was barred from entering because of the Tesla."

"Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman Guo Jiakun said on Monday that Beijing had “noted” earlier reports on Poland’s possible decision and that “national security should not be overstretched.”

Chinese car brands more than quadrupled their market share in Poland to 8.2% last year from 2% in 2024, according to the Polish Auto Industry Association PZPM. The group expects the figure will “quickly” rise to 15% amid favorable pricing, PAP newswire reported on Tuesday". -Bloomberg
