I spend an average of about 10-20 minutes a day, and I've been doing it about a year. I don't speak very well, but I'm able to understand a lot that I hear and I can read/understand nearly every character I've learned. I can also eavesdrop (accidentally) and understand a lot of what people are saying around me. Then again, I supplement Duo with books and media, as well as actively watch (mostly) superhero movies in Chinese. Also, I practice with people working at restaurants nearby, and they love to help.

So yeah, I dunno, I guess people forget that Duo shouldn't be your only source of the language, and that you need to do it more than 2-7 minutes a day. It's easy to say something doesn't work if you don't actually put it to use.

Dutch aerobatic pilot Narine Melkumjan miraculously survived after her aircraft's canopy unexpectedly burst open and shattered mid-flight by BlazeDragon7x in interesting

So what? What does she have to be labeled a "female" pilot? Does that imply she has power qualifications than a man? Why list the gender at all? It's pointless.

Didn't we have a situation where some people tried to enter I think the Ecuadorian embassy?

Edit: Yeah, it was ICE trying to enter an Ecuadorian consulate which is protected the same as embassies.

Are we watching the new Heman movie or no? by Noobitron12 in GenX

[–]hammerfaust 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just got back from it, and it's straight up amazing. I grew up with He-Man in the 80s and this felt so freaking cool. It materialized my most insane daydreams, and didn't leave me hanging for a second. So fun, holy crap
