I play stuff, I draw stuff, I code stuff.

Your Hong Kong Splatoon 3 ☂️ Brella main and vector artist who also studies Computer Science. Occasionally play games other than Splatoon. Can probably help your math homework too.

  • If you are a huge nerd and don't need the whimsy, maybe ComputerCraft? You can program the bots (called "turtles") in Lua to do literally anything.

    I have never played PalWorld so idk if this is missing the point.

  • Wasn't there a study that showed homophobic men are more turned on by gay porn compared to non-homophobes?

  • What are the pronouns they/them in your language?

    Jump

  • As far as I know, yes in modern Chinese. However if you include ancient Chinese there's also 吾

  • What are the pronouns they/them in your language?

    Jump

  • That's exactly how to understand them

  • What are the pronouns they/them in your language?

    Jump

  • Instead of having different words for plural of pronouns, in Chinese we append a character after single pronouns to make them plural.

    • 我 (me) -> 我們 (us)
    • 你 (you) -> 你們 (you all)
    • 他 (him) -> 他們 (them (male))
    • 她 (her) -> 她們 (them (female))

    You get the idea. We also have pronouns for animals (牠), inanimate objects (它) and God (祂), and you can similarly add 們 to make them plural (except for god, I haven't seen the character being used in plural). Using they/them as pronoun for a person doesn't make sense in Chinese.

    Chinese used to have no gender pronouns. Everyone is referred to as 他 (Mandarin) or 佢 (Cantonese). It's in last century when 她 ("she") is "invented", and no new gender pronouns in Cantonese. However, in terms of speaking, they are all pronounced the same way (ta1 in Mandarin, keoi5 in Cantonese), so it's literally impossible to use the wrong pronoun if you're speaking or typing in Cantonese.

  • debian 13.2 with yt-dlp 2025.12.08 from yt-dlp/yt-dlp. What command do I need to download the newest format available, not exceeding 1080p and up to VP9?

  • Seems like a job for ffmpeg. You may want to look into post-processing options of yt-dlp.

  • People around the world are trying to learn English because it's the Lingua Franca, but imagine if the Lingua Franca of the world was a Tonal Language and the writing system was Logographic.

    Jump

  • The tone 2 and 5 difference is subtle. 5 goes not as high as 2. Most of the time people pronounce them lazily but I can figure it out from the context.

  • Transliterated country names into Chinese Language use pre-existing characters that already has its own meaning, therefore native Chinese speakers have a subconcious impression based on country names.

  • That's just an average Hongkonger message lol
