This isn't a criticism just really funny to me

I've been seeing DP fics and posts where they are using Esperanto (canon I know) but people are calling it an "ancient forgotten language"

... Esperanto was created in the late 1800s. It's a CONSTRUCTED language made by a guy who wanted to make a "universal language" (by using almost only European languages as a base, mind you)

It's not some dead language that we don't use any more like Latin or Ancient Greek

Maybe it could be an ancient language cause of DP time fuckery and all that in canon?

But it's just really funny to me

Honestly it's Extremely Funny to me that it's canonically used in the show too

So, I just learned that you can't independently set the language of a GamePass game to anything other than the system language of the platform you're playing on???

If your Xbox is set to English, all your games are in English. If your phone is in Dutch, any games you stream to your phone will be in Dutch. If your PC is set to Portuguese, your games have to be in Portuguese.

For me, personally, this means I can't play Slay the Spire in Esperanto (it's one of the few games with a full official translation), but I'm seeing a LOT of Reddit threads with people being forced to play sub-par localizations of games EVEN THOUGH THEY SPEAK THE ORIGINAL LANGUAGE.

What the FUCK, Microsoft????

US: Finally, after years of supporting the Bahá'í State of Iran and the Levant we have helped overthrow the Iranian government and replaced it with the radical Bahá'ís who won't do anything.

BSIL (pronounced basil): Saluton amikoj, we heard you were being racist so we are launching several missiles at you.

US: These guys are weird but at least they're zionists

BSIL: Saluton, after thousands of years we have located the verse about arson so we will be blowing up israel.

US: YOUR LITURGICAL LANGUAGES ARE PERSIAN AND ARABIC WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS

So, I've been wanting to switch over to Firefox but I haven't because I'm just straight up kinda lazy, but with all this talk of KOSA and with Firefox apparently being one of the KOSA-safe browsers, (I have no way of confirming this, just what I've heard) I wanna switch over just to be safe.

The thing is, how much new stuff to I have to download in order to replace Chrome with Firefox? Ik it's not owned by Google, and I've got stuff like Google-owned apps like Maps on my phone so do I have to make a thousand different changes in order to effectively switch to Firefox? Or just download Firefox, make the switch and I'm good?

Hello!

Well, Firefox is just a browser. What that means is that if you want you can still use the Google apps on your phone. They aren't connected to chrome so if you remove chrome they won't stop working. You can also, if you really want, delete those apps but sign in on the browser, in your case Firefox, and you'll be able to use your Gmail and Google Maps but on your browser instead of having a specific app for that. You decide what's most convenient to you. I personally still use those apps, but if want to be extra secure and don't want to have Google tracking too much stuff about you you can choose to only use the browser.

Firefox will, by the way, give you the option to migrate all of your passwords from Chrome to Firefox. This means you have way less work. You just need to download Firefox, tell it to migrate your passwords from your Chrome (it means you have login with your Google account if I remember correctly), and it will do that for you, meaning you don't have to go and put your passwords to whatever site you use one by one. It's honestly really easy to migrate.

What do you have to understand: a browser is just an app that allows you to use various search tools. You can still use the Google search on Firefox if you want! I usually have DuckDuckGo as my primary search engine but sometimes I switch to Google (the search engine not the company) because I want to have a specific kind of search that DuckDuckGo isn't really managing to do. DuckDuckGo by the way is the search engine that tracks you less. That's why it's usually preferable if you want to not have all your search history being shared with third parties.

These are the standard search engines but you can add more if you want. You can use Yahoo or Wikipedia for example.

What Firefox allows you to do that chrome, on the mobile app, doesn't is to have add-ons, more commonly known as browser extensions. The normal Firefox app doesn't have many add-ons available but it has at least some and the ones that are available are very useful.

They're great for adding extra security protection, or just to have a better experience using the browser.

These are all 17 mobile compatible add-ons. Highly recommended UBlock Origin, Clear URLs and Privacy Badger.

You can technically have more but that will make it so you need to use the Firefox Nightly app instead of the standard Firefox. Firefox Nightly is a developer app and you need a lot of extra hoops if you wanna have extra Add-ons on your phone. To me it's worth it because it means I can have XKit Rewritten, Tumblr's saviour at this point, on my phone which almost makes me want to delete the Tumblr app. However you want to keep things simple so just Firefox will do just fine. No need to complicate things.

In conclusion:

Migrating is easy because you can migrate passwords from a browser to the other, you can still use your Google services on Firefox, add-ons are cool.

"the Black Speech was created by the Dark Lord Sauron to be the official language of all the lands and peoples under his control... The Orcs are said never to have accepted it willingly;"

The Dark Speech is the Esperanto of Middle Earth.

You know what? To my multilingual mutuals and all the folks whove popped by to interact - its so cool to know you. I cant speak your language and you cant speak mine, but we just so happened to learn english at some point and now it lets us talk, share experiences and moments and connect. That is epic. I love you.

[bepisdotmp4]

damn why do all the hot people put this flag in their bio??? where are you even from

[bittehelfen]

Love that a language that was designed to be easy to learn is incapable of being spoken by me in particular.

Trilled Rs are the bane of my existence

[legendarybeautyprotibalarina]

BAD IDEAS I SHOULDNT DO: learn conlangs just to make jinriki covers that are half in another language

[ano-kya]

I should learn more languages

[amastelaire]

Pros of knowing a lot of languages :

- can enjoy foreign content even if it is badly/not at all translated

- get to meet and to talk to a variety of peoples

- can start speaking another language when you want your convocation to stay private (this is extremly funny when you start randomly speaking breton in the public transport (I dont leave near brittany at all))

- can help other learn those languages

Cons of knowing a lot of languages:

- dumbass auto-correct

- can switches words without realising

- multi-linguistic blank

- cannot share said content because it's badly/not at all translated
