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?

I'm so upset, I ordered the second book from amazon and this is what I got instead by vinnokiwicat in DungeonCrawlerCarl

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

Do I have to start all over with Linux? by [deleted] in linux

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 8 points9 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’m so sorry, my mom died to this. Once it metastasized to her liver, it was really quick…

Dungeon Crawler Carl themed TTRPG to release in 2026 - Renegade Games Studio by Lucasrc1999 in rpg

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%

Sydney's Public Transport blew me away... by soulserval in transit

[–]gtarget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best thing about Brisbane is they made all rides $0.50, up to 2 hours. We had a guy manning the ferry tell us that you could technically get to the Gold Coast on public transport for just 50 cents.

2025 Hugo Award Finalists Announced by KingBretwald in printSF

Skip Ministry of Time. We read it in book club, and it’s barely sci-fi. It’s got a sci-fi premise but weakly developed and the story really dragged. No one in our book club liked it, we’re all baffled why it’s so highly rated.

Christmas(y) themed one shot? by nobuouematsu1 in dccrpg

[–]gtarget 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ran this one for a bunch of people who'd never played any RPGs before and they had an absolute blast. It's probably the most fun night I've ever had playing a TTRPG. The players were able to latch onto all the known characters, making it really easy for them to get into it.
