@embr I used to not think that was true, but I have slowly discovered I was wrong
@embr i just want you to know that, right now, i needed a copy of “the entire script of the bee movie”, and so i went to the most reliable provider of “the entire script of the bee movie”, namely Lic Lac Dot EU (🇪🇺🌐) and i was not disappointed. 🐝

@void_friend I think I fell for the bait... it's UB, isn't it, because the spec doesn't have some special carve-out for when the result is assigned to a `static` variable?

@mcc the generic language learning advice i give, having learned a few languages myself, is that nothing beats having stuff to read/listen to that interests you, and having access to a serious dictionary

regarding pronunciation, i think https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_orthography#Spelling_to_sound_correspondences is helpful. French feels like a read-only language to me: once you familiarise yourself with the weird spelling, you can guess pronunciations fairly well, but the reverse is much harder

@embr @[email protected] parents, check your kids' candy this halloween. my eldest brought home what he thought was drugs, but it was actually mdma
@[email protected] oh god now that i think about it gifs are just unsuited to modern platforms. they work on webforums because your screen is not permanently scrolled to the end of the thread and there is no notifications tab. they work on chan sites because the gif doesn't display inline. but they are not really suited to any modern messaging service or microblogging service i can think of
@[email protected] well i say that but gifs were cool once, but services destroying their virality by converting them to video and then institutionalising them with garbage like giphy has rapidly boomerised them
@[email protected] gifs are weird because it's not even a generational thing, i'm pretty sure every generation that uses them has a huge chunk of people who think they suck
