I have yet to find a paywalled article, where putting archive.is/ in front of the link, doesn’t solve that problem.

Doing that for this article, gave me this link: https://archive.md/KBTlE

Although in the case of this article, you’ll have to request the desktop version, if you’re using a phone, because otherwise their Read Next box will cover some of the text at the end.

Here’s a way around the paywall: https://archive.md/ZDs6S

But the article doesn’t really make it clear how much AI is involved in the textbooks, just that “Digital textbooks that make use of artificial intelligence are being adopted throughout South Korea.”, emphasis mine.

Other text from the article, relevant to your question:

South Korea, the 2025 APEC chair, held the group’s first education ministers’ meeting in nine years, the theme of which was innovation in digital education. Education ministers from 21 countries and regions participated.
[…]
Private companies and government-affiliated organizations set up booths at the APEC venue to promote their efforts. They exhibited software in which generative AI writes student evaluations on behalf of teachers or assigns homework and applied problems tailored to each child’s level of understanding.

The road to implementation was not a smooth one.

The government’s original goal was the world’s first rollout of AI digital textbooks to all schools nationwide. But teachers worried about the burden that making full use of the technology would place on them, while parents questioned whether the textbooks would actually improve student performance and whether they could lead to digital dependency.

After heated debate, lawmakers made last-minute changes, including requiring continued use of paper textbooks for subjects such as Korean and home economics and delaying implementation for other subjects. The government also made plans to provide advanced training to more than 160,000 teachers as well as dispatch 1,200 digital tutors as support staff.

Caliente had been suffering from complications due to a severe infection, and as a result, had undergone surgery, losing most of her right leg.

The news was confirmed by her family, who shared the update on her Instagram page. They wrote, “It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of Bianca Castro-Arabejo, known to the world and cherished by many as Jiggly Caliente. Bianca passed away peacefully on April 27, 2025, at 4:42 am, surrounded by her loving family and close friends.”

I upvoted you, because it was funny and made me laugh :D

post is too unfortunately

they don’t think it be like it is but it do

I wonder if you’re running into the same thing that I’ve had quite a bit of issue with in the last few weeks on lemmy.world.

When I go to the ‘copy’ of a post on lemmy.world from another instance, I will get the same message of “You must log in or register to comment.”
Only by searching for the post on lemmy.world, clicking through to it, and then also refreshing, does lemmy seem to acknowledge that I am in fact logged in! But only if I do those steps in that order.

EDIT: I’ve made it a bit easier for myself by setting up the search engine in my browser: https://lemmy.world/search?q=%25s
So that I can just copy any other instance link, go to the address bar and type ls (the keyword I chose for the search engine), paste in the link and then go to the lemmy.world version from there, and refresh the page.

I used to be able to just use the Instance Assistant for Lemmy & Kbin extension by cynber, but for the last few weeks I have to do the whole search and refresh dance instead.

Das ist der Weg

This is the way, ja?

That Imginn link that mediocreme_ow posted seems promising, but otherwise in a pinch, I have good results with opening Instagram posts from profiles by opening them in a new tab. If you just don’t click them, but instead open them in a new tab, I don’t get hit with the “create an account”.

That is true, as do most browsers nowadays, including Firefox, now that I’ve ditched Chromium.

But we are discussing DeepL, and in that regard, my issue with the URL is that I am using the built-in browser search engine section, where you can setup your own url and write in a keyword. Then every time you type that keyword in the address bar, any term following it will be searched on the site, through the URL that you have provided.
There’s more detail on that in this previous comment of mine, in reply to an earlier user who responded to my original comment.

Yes, if you go to the website, and start typing, it defaults to the Detect language option.
But what I’m talking about is customizing the url, so you don’t need to go to the site, to start your search.

If you go to https://translate.google.com/?sl=auto&tl=en&text=%C2%BFHola, cómo estás? it will automatically detect that the string is in Spanish, because of the auto in the url.

That’s what I’m looking for with DeepL.

EDIT: Damn, seems like the parameter used to be xx, but that it’s been broken for some time now, if this exchange in January on stackoverflow.com is to be believed. Or the parameter was . and/or auto, according to this Reddit thread back in November, where they also talk about it being broken.

Is something wrong with my reading comprehension or does this blog post inexplicably switch half-way through from saying mapy.com to maps.com?

I really want to make the complete switch to DeepL instead of Google Translate, but I can’t figure out how to setup the URL for auto detecting language.
With https://translate.google.com/?sl=auto&tl=en&text=SEARCHTERM whatever word or sentence I input, it uses the “Detect language” option, which I know that DeepL has as an option for too. But I can’t figure out what keyword to put in the DeepL url, for it to use the Detect Language option.
Here’s English to Spanish: https://www.deepl.com/en/translator#en/es/SEARCHTERM

Hopefully I’m just missing something obvious due to having been down with the flu this past week.

I think that Firefox (and Firefox forks, like Zen Browser) have low-enough marketshare that websites that depend on ad revenue may just kill support for Firefox if Firefox does permit ad blocking

An argument could also be made that Firefox and its forks have low-enough marketshare that websites that depend on ad revenue won’t want to deal with the extra work of keeping those users out.

I think they’re referring to this post that OP made 3 days ago: i took an iq test and it was nice and i took my time doing it but the answer was 86, is that bad??

There’s currently 38 comments in that thread, and only 2 of them are from OP, at the time of me writing this comment here.

Ahh, I see. Excellent 😁 Thanks a lot for the info! I’m excited to look into it.

That is so interesting! I never would’ve guessed Obsidian for file storage. I’ll have to look into that! Thanks for sharing. Did you use any resources online in setting it up, or did you already know how to go about it?

That sounds really cool! How’d you do it?

In the same vein, with my family I’ve been using the analogy of “Imagine that all law enforcement had a key to your home, and they could enter at any time and look through your things, but you wouldn’t even know it if they did, or if they took photos or recorded videos of your place to take with them. Their argument is that the only way to keep you and your stuff safe from the bad guys is for the good guys to have access. But because the good guys now have access, it’s also easier for the bad guys to get in, because now there’s all these extra keys to your home out there, which might fall into the hands of the bad guys.”

Not a perfect analogy, but it seems to make them consider the issue from a more personal angle. And for those that argue, “Well, I don’t have anything to hide.”, I usually counter with “Then why do you close your curtains/blinds when you change your clothes or get out of the shower?” With my dad who grew up during the World War II, it also helped to mention that a law like this, once on the books, will not be easy to overturn, and while he might be fine with our current regime having access to all his data, that might not be the case with future authorities.

Interesting, I’d never heard of Kavita, so have just been using Calibre all these years. Did you start out on Kavita, or did you move from Calibre, or another software?

Can’t believe I’d never seen that before. The sequel popped up afterwards, and was also hilarious.
