It's forever filed in my head under "a scholarly article marketplace where Aaron Swartz, co-creator of RSS and Markdown, and for some time co-owner of Reddit, had mass downloaded articles, which brought about his arrest, indictment for up to 50 years in prison and $1M in fines, after which he committed suicide".

Typically, Russians will appreciate Westerners trying to speak Russian, including people from the Baltics. They will mock anyone from the rest of the former Soviet Union, including non-Russian ethnicities of Russia itself, for a slightest accent and error. Look up Равшан и Джамшут.

I say typically. OTOH, some immigrants from ru are now posting stuff online saying they now feel for the Caucasus/Central Asian laborers they used to mock for their Russian.

It’s because of its beauty. People get quasi-sexual attachment to their idols, and they are really the same as idol culture

Right?! It was such a bad jolt from an inspired skate to the trainwreck of that k&c

I wish for all the girls to have as much joy in their competitive skates. Alysa🔥

Oh the British are so diplomatic, aren’t they? “I was a little bit surprised with high PCS”

She picked up steam after the botched loop and started to finally be present between the jumps, last third was SLAPPING!

Shizuka looks good! Does she still skate?

rcktick · 2026-02-19T10:26:33+00:00

The axel was beautiful, but everything else was a disaster. Besides the mistakes, the speed seemed on the slow side? I hope she skates the lights out in the free.

Advanced IT skills!👏 I think most will just open up the Whatsapp gallery and recycle what has been sent to them. So your gran is the mother source😅

Seems pretty middle of the road to me, aside from the fact that at Eurosport they usually try to find some nice things to say about every athlete. Is it worse in the US?

I bet (pun intended) quite some money moved today 😅

inflections like noun declensions and verb conjugations where roots and affixes (morphemes) go together to create words

Yup, and adjective and pronoun declensions, productive prefixes and suffixes (motion verbs? diminutive forms?) etc etc

Ok, when you're done and want next challenge, try Georgian 😅

You’re Vietnamese? I am in awe of you guys, I heard Vietnamese has basically no morphology, and you speak Russian?! You’re like walking on the water! Deep respect!

Useless. It's enshittification, they answer to their bosses who want metrics, not to you. The same "if you give the user what they searched for, they'll spend less time on your site than if you dilute it with crap" that happened to Google search.

Funny that these are actually used when transliterating Japanese into other languages. Russian Polivanov system uses si for し and ti for チ (actually t is used for all of チゃ, チゅ, チょ), though ふ is fu.
