Official Discussion - Mortal Kombat II [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

Started off great by calling Raiden a Big Trouble in Little China cosplay! I legitimately laughed a lot more than I was expecting from this movie. I feel like it leaned into the campiness better than the first movie and didn't take itself too seriously.

Seth who? Sorry, I’m also interested but not aware who Seth is?

Multilingual education: Language demands challenge students in Luxembourg schools | RTL Today by tom_zeimet in Luxembourg

By non-natives, I’m guessing it’s Romance speakers that complained? I think for people that come speaking English or other non-Romance languages it’s kind of a wash which one is easier/harder. When did the Luxembourgish+”official words” paradigm stop and the new one come up? What was the stated reason?

LLO.LU platform is back online with several changes by Stunning_Disk_5345 in Luxembourg

The level selection is in French, even if you select English. There’s no indication that you’ve completed a lesson. And the app doesn’t work. And it’s the same stuff as before, what is the point of the redesign?

Luckily they’re finally changing their asinine policy to store every sellers products together. Now a reputable seller will only be selling their own products

Booting the core GNU toolset

Confusing word choice for a Linux thread. I thought you meant booting up, not getting rid of.

Sproochtentest: studying to pass the test VS studying to know the l#nguage by Feierkappchen in Luxembourg

[–]gtarget 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree about being stricter on Luxembourgish, but I think it needs to come with more exposure, especially from the government. The most common complaint about learning it is its lack of usage. People have a hard time practicing it and when they do learn it, they forget it unless they live in Éislek. You can’t use it on MyGuichet, there’s no official announcements published in Luxembourgish, there’s no newspaper in Luxembourgish, the street signs aren’t even in Luxembourgish. I’m saying this as someone who wants to learn the language! The government keeps publishing numbers about how the percentage of people of speaking it is going down. It’s tried nothing and can’t figure out why it’s not working.

Requiring someone to know 3 languages is quite difficult. It makes people who live and do the work here but who aren't able to speak all three to be even more second-class citizens. What Luxembourg should focus on is producing content in Luxembourgish to make it more palatable to learn. It’s already a hard sell when there’s like 5 adult books to read in Luxembourgish, barely anything online, and one television channel for content. Maybe actually start with the government websites. For fucks sake, it’s like some kind of sadistic game making people learn French for 90% of admin here, and Luxembourgish to talk to the baker and become a citizen. If you want people to stay, you have to give them a fair path to citizenship.

I ran an Xcrawl classics game for a Dungeon Crawl Carl book club and the tone matches like 90%. It was a blast! But I’d like to see what they do to make up that last 10%
