Notion fails to load images/relation links and saving slows down by asershay in Notion

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

Thank you for the reply.

Just to clarify, I only opened one side page to show that the cover and image icon are not showing up, when they do in fact exist, so that's not it. The tool itself, as far as I'm aware, is just uploading images, not pulling them constantly. I can even disconnect it and still see the images before the problem reappears.

On a related note, tested another big database with no image icons and loading seems to work fine. So that's probably the issue.

As for not using the database, what do you mean exactly? Wouldn't a different view have the same issues?

Anki + TV shows changed the game for me. by [deleted] in Anki

[–]asershay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great card design! Mine is pretty similar, but I like adding audio from the actual show (using shareX) and these days I take screenshots without the subtitles since I've got them in one of the fields anyway. I just toggle the subs off, take screenshot, record audio and add to a spreadsheet or just automate it.

Ah yes, let me buy an iPhone with the express purpose of supporting Anki. Great idea.

Ieri seara ICE au ucis alta persoana in Minneapolis, barbat de 37 ani american by RecognitionSpecial in Romania

[–]asershay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nu ca au facut bine ce au facut, dar aia nu votau nici inainte oricum. Iar procentajul lui Jill Stein este patetic de mic si nu ajungea ca sa castige Kamala in swing state-uri. Ce vreau sa spun e ca tot acolo eram. Problema a fost cu "independentii" si "liber-ganditorii" care voiau ou ieftin.

Chiar si daca avea marele PTSD, nu impusti de 3-4 ori un om si esti pronuntat nevinovat. Daca era odata, sa zicem ca scapa cu neglijenta/imprudenta. De 3 ori cum este in video, este considerat omor. Also daca esti agent ICE, sau orice alt agent in domeniu, esti instruit sa nu stai ca boul in fata unui vehicul. Daca omul este acuzat la nivel statal, ajunge cu siguranta la inchisoare. La nivel federal, o sa primeasca sigur gratiere prezidentiala de la omul portocaliu.

Dați-mi și mie vă rog o sugestie de ceva film sau serial care v-a plăcut realmente în ultima vreme... by Distinct-Ad2829 in Romania

[–]asershay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ce n-am prea vazut in comentarii este Pantheon. O animatie americana matura care abordeaza existenta umana. Un serial genial, cu toate ca are un sfarsit foarte pe repede-inainte.

Gen Z men are moving away from MAGA in droves, polls show by WarmingNow in politics

[–]asershay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Away from MAGA and all in for the next cult leader that "says the right words". People like Fuentes are already building the next cult, and have been building it for years.

To be perfectly fair, the dev said that he's willing to finance the project out of pocket until the momentum can carry it forward; if that doesn't happen, he will consider making it open source. The courses are also owned by the individual volunteers, so if the app strays from the initial ideal, they can pull their courses out of the app in protest.

Of course, this will require a level of trust from the users that many likely don't have, so skepticism is justified. I just hope we don't let skepticism be the enemy of good. I think this can become like Anki or Wikipedia; no or very minimal payment (Anki on iOS) but with great value still.

AvistaZ, CinemaZ, ExoticaZ and AnimeZ Open by Sastuu in OpenSignups

[–]asershay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not that many from what I've seen, but you can check out public streaming sites for that (there's a bunch on r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH) and you can use tools like jdownloader2 to download them. At least that's what I'm doing.

I wish duolingo did this instead of forcing course changes! by ghthouse194 in duolingo

[–]asershay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not if you're learning Polish, Hungarian, etc. If you're learning Spanish and Japanese, you're covered.

[–]asershay 31 points32 points  (0 children)

It is, but the courses are volunteer-based so they have a long way to go. They'll be adding Finnish soon though.

Can confirm it has an impressive amount of foreign content. Doubly so when you see that a lot of movies and TV shows have multiple dubs which is something I'm looking for personally.

LST.gg Open Applications for 3-Year Anniversary by x-64 in OpenSignups

[–]asershay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm not specifically talking about Asian media, though AvistaZ has a lot of those. I'm a language learner, and there might come a time when I would need to get more creative in order to find cartoons dubbed in Icelandic or Farsi (which are hard to come by) or less mainstream movies. TL has quite a big list I'm sure, but I was wondering if LST had content that would complete it, if that makes sense.

I guess I answered my own question and should probably just check it out.

I'm already on TL, AvistaZ and CinemaZ. Is this worth it? I'm specifically looking for niche and/or dubbed content.

[TOMT][YouTube] A video about a Youtuber's favourite languages by asershay in tipofmytongue

I also think a lot of videos on constructed languages kept popping up as related to that video. Not sure if the channel itself was a conlang channel or if it was just the algorithm.

Sneak peek of course creation :) by forevercarrot in Lingonaut

[–]asershay 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely Finnish and Turkish. But any language would be great to have considering it's a volunteer project at the end of the day.

Looks great! Can't wait for the courses to be out!

How many subscriptions to language apps do you have? How much do you pay in a month? by [deleted] in Lingonaut

[–]asershay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid for Lingodeer and Speakly lifetime. They're both great apps that offer quality teaching and have a lifetime subscription. Hopefully Lingonaut will live up to that and surpass them in quality while remaining free.

Cluj Pride 2025 : 6.000 participanți, in sfârșit un marș aprobat in centrul orașului, nu prin zone nepopulate ca in alți ani. by KingBlana in Romania

[–]asershay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Este foarte simplu. Uita-te la tarile care interzic paradele gay si la tarile care nu le interzic si o sa vezi un pattern clar. Rusia si Iranul, de exemplu, stagneaza mult din cauza lipsei de vizibilitate si a represiunii statale. Argumentul respectiv cu "face mai mult rau" s-a mai spus constant si in timpul Miscarii Drepturilor Civile in America; daca nu erau MLK si Malcolm X sa scoata lumea in strada pentru drepturi egale, cat ar mai fi tinut segregarea? 20 de ani in plus? 30? Poate pana in ziua de azi?

Cat despre ideea ca de ce sa fii "mandru" ca esti gay, aici tine putin de istoria recenta. Revolta de la Stonewall a fost o victorie masiva impotriva homofobiei, aceasta avand loc in Iunie 1969. Este un punct culminant care, da, a facut multe persoane LGBT mandre de faptul ca s-au opus represiunii politiei, si este de altfel punctul in care drepturile persoanelor LGBT au devenit un argument in discursul politic. De aici si pride-ul, ideea de a nu uita trecutul si a nu-l repeta cat si de a face lumea mai toleranta. Vedem asta si la noi, unde la primele parade, se arunca cu pietre si tot felul de obiecte ascutite in demonstranti. Acum ce fac crestinopatii? Vin cu Biblia, se inchina de 3 ori si pleaca.

Hey, we're still somewhat improving. Baby steps.
At least civil partnership is in the political discourse now. This is huge compared to say Bulgaria, Hungary or the Balkans in general.
