  • What you wrote is certifiably wrong. Turkey asked to be called ‘Türkiye’. Note that you didn't call them the correct name, despite claiming that it's no bother for you. Because ‘ü’ isn't a letter of the English alphabet, so the so-called ‘English name’ is not English.

  • Funny thing, Lisp structures are converted pretty easily to xml/html, so of course there are packages for Lisp varieties allowing one to write html in Lisp. (Similar to Pug, but with parentheses.)

  • Anyone else develop weird but specific flavor cravings?

  • Once in a while, particularly in hot summer evenings, I get an overwhelming hankering for anything acidic, preferably a drink. It's probably related to sweating a lot and losing electrolytes. Annoyingly, since my fridge is stocked sparingly and I don't typically consume fizzy drinks, I have to resort to munching on whatever is there: pickle juice if I'm lucky, or straight up diluting citric acid or vinegar if I'm not.

    Regarding your situation: soy sauce is pretty much prescribed to you. Try also Worcestershire sauce, you'll only need a few drops of it — goes well with leafy salads. But don't go for cheap varieties, or it'll be mostly vinegar: get Lea & Perrins, Henderson's, maybe Heinz (but the latter seem to generally lean on vinegar lately).

    Look also into relishes/sauces/stews/preserves made with sauteed vegetables, popular in South and Eastern Europe: e.g. lecho, ratatouille, ajvar, lyutenitsa, sataraš, peperonata, piperade. Particularly preserves made with variously prepared eggplant, like pindjur; or with roasted beans. If you're lucky, something like this might be sold in supermarkets where you are. These dishes are typically quite savory.

  • What are your top 5 favourite works of art?

    Jump

  • Visual arts:

    Music:

    For performance, perhaps Meredith Monk's ‘Turtle Dreams’, shot by Ping Chong. But I'm not an aficionado of the form.

  • A death prediction market would be a platform for crowdsourced assassinations

    Jump

  • That's how it's already done, afaik. But cheers for coming up with the idea independently (if you didn't read it in one of the discussions about Polymarket, of course).

  • Are there regions of the world where local men and women have divergent accents?

    Jump

  • There are a bunch of cultures where a ‘sacred language’ is permitted only for men, or there are distinct languages used by only men and only women. Unfortunately, my memory isn't so good as to remember what those languages are. A quick search shows that the Kallawaya language is a ‘secret language’ passed down usually from father to son, and to daughters only if a man has no sons.

    Check out ‘Gender role in language’ and the topic of genderlects; Gender differences in Japanese; Nüshu script.

    You could also try looking through above-mentioned sacred languages and ritual languages for whether it's mentioned that any of them are specific to a gender.

  • Pretty cool. Might want to repost to !jazz@lemmy.world, or perhaps better post the whole album in there.

  • The album actually has ‘cinema Italiano’ in the tags. Presumably meaning cinematic music for an imaginary film.

  • It also helps to check for signs of pre-diabetes, as afaiu healthy people don't get this issue. I didn't start getting the shakes until I gotten fat and unexercised.

  • It's a consequence of low blood sugar. Although there are other possible causes.

  • Hello, where do I find true royalty free music?

    Jump

  • Search the web for ‘creative commons music’ — there are sites specializing in such content, but I haven't used them myself.

  • That's it! The description sounds pretty fun actually, I might need to fire the game up myself.

    My nagging feeling that it was ‘Road Rash’ with a skateboard or skates didn't deceive me, as apparently the ‘RR’ engine was reused for this game.

  • I mean, the themes of ‘PoA’ are somewhat more mature, so the noirish look was warranted. And from what I remember, it wasn't just a blue-and-orange palette, like in many modern films, but a pretty colorful one inside that noir feel.

    Cuarón also doesn't do such palettes everywhere. ‘Y tu mamá también’ is very colorful, while the dystopian ‘Children of Men’ is accordingly subdued. So it was a choice appropriate to the events in the film, just like the installments later in the ‘HP’ series also get darker.

  • Once again I'm glad that I just search trackers with the browser and download torrents with a torrents client, like a peasant.

  • Are you kidding? The first two films were shot in the most boring way possible, which is a bit odd considering the director Chris Columbus had previously made the two ‘Home Alones’ and ‘Mrs. Doubtfire’. I still regret that I didn't know of VLC's playback speed adjustment when I watched ‘HP’.

    Then they got proper good director Alfonso Cuarón, who shown how a fantasy film could actually look and feel. After which of course he wasn't hired again, and instead in one more iteration they found David Yates, who churned out the remaining four films like it was a factory job for him.

  • I vaguely remember a skateboarding game from the 90s where the character could grab onto cars. But it was probably on something like Sega Mega and pretty primitive. Might've been one of the Simpsons games.

  • From what I've heard, the puppeteer Phil Fletcher occasionally throws out random stuff as jokes on co-hosts.
