  • There's also an ego thing. Lichess starts you off at 1500 elo whereas I think chesscum starts at 1000. So if you're rated 1000 on Lichess you're a lot worse. There's a mentality that the better players are on Chesscum.

    this of course isnt true, there's plenty of competition and actually around the 2000-2200 elo level Lichess actually overtakes chesscum. there's also fewer cheaters!

    I definitely highly, highly recommend Lichess.

  • I warmed up to BBT after watching Young Sheldon. all the criticisms of BBT still stand but for some reason I just wasn't miserable watching it. had a few laughs even.

  • In how many languages can you count to 10?

    Jump

  • English, French, Spanish, Korean, Mandarin, probably a few others I'm forgetting, I'm not good with translating numbers into sounds, I'd probably have more on the list if you ask me what languages i can say "it's okay" in, oh yeah i got the itchy knee I can do Japanese too. I think I learned Thai at some point before I gave up on their alphabet.

    also counting in different romance languages is lame, show me how many language FAMILIES you can count in. oh shit you got the Bantu! oh yeah I can also do turkish

  • "God" in this meme just refers to "the reason lightspeed is c and not something else". Quit inserting agendas and just enjoy the meme

  • easy block potential, a dude tagging people from past arguments to rampage about how "Europe is bad actually!" or whatever the fuck nonsense they were arguing about... cherry picking contentious bill proposals and presenting it as some sort of evidence... the mental acuity of a teenager and none of the meme potential. yea I'm gonna get out ahead of this one and make sure you dont randomly tag me on shit either. easy block

  • Why is Germany so prevalent on Lemmy?

    Jump

  • Great answer! Presence on reddit leads to presence on lemmy. Why present on reddit: linguistic proximity, population size, type of social media access

  • i edit my comments 3-5 times after posting them because i keep adding info and correcting statements and drafting what i'm thinking lol. the first reply is literally just a "save draft" button for me. like i actually have to pay attention to how recently the parent comment was written to gauge how likely it is they'll read my reply before it's done. i have issues

    EDIT: im not editing this one

  • also i think there's a window of time within which you can edit your comment and it wont notate the edit. so no need to explain it!

  • To be clear, native Germans are far better at English than most Americans are at this point.

    honestly from a linguistic perspective this is so painfully inaccurate. you're talking about native speakers here. what you might mean to say is that Germans use English closer to how the Brits use it. that is a defensible statement. but you're doing something different.

    just because native speakers change how they use their own language, they aren't doing it "worse". they are adapting their tongue to their needs. one's mother language is deeply tied to identity, and cultural identities grow and shift through time. to say that their identity is "worse" is certainly a statement you could make, but you see the violence inherent in it, right?

    who knows, there's plenty of criticisms to make of Americans. i probably have more than the average. but i'm not really comfortable with putting down entire groups of people based on how they use their mother tongue. and i'm certainly not going to try to pass off criticism of a culture as a statement of measurement like "you are bad at X"
