Taal vraagje

Jump

  • Onze lange klinkers waren ooit gewoon een lange klank maar dat is meer veranderd in een tweeklank, behalve waar het wat raar klinkt, zoals ij voor r (wijwater maar wierook) en in ooi of eeuw.

    • Taal vraagje

  • Omdat lange klinkers anders klinken voor de r?

    • Why does wearing a towel or hat around your hair while it dries make the texture and way it comes out "better" or generally different, what sorcery is this?

    Jump

  • Speaking of dandruff, it took me way too long to find out I don't really have dandruff, just a dry scalp. That's why the "dandruff", like all my other health issues, just disappear in warmer climates.

    • Why hard paywalls is not blocked on Lemmy?

    Jump

  • I disagree. The alternative to news is no news. If you don't have anything interesting to share, just don't post it.

    If you want to share news articles, just use a link to the internet archive, if available, or copy-paste the text if it's behind a paywall.

    Information should be open to all on a platform like Lemmy imo. If you're willing to pay for news, you won't need this platform for that.

    Please ban paywalls.

    • What scientific fact blows your mind the most?

    Jump

  • I don't know but imagine what crazy processes would lead to creating that magic man floating around in nothingness, without a world to evolve on.

    • those who live by, grew up by, or have family who did by a border, did you end up speaking the language of the other country?

    Jump

  • Alles goed :) ja, ik kom uit Nederland

    Jump

  • It's funny I understand all that when written but couldn't understand a word when Scandinavians speak

    • How are some people able to pass exams with high grades without studying?

    Jump

  • It's mostly how I made it through school/university. I just don't remember things for very long and found it's just easier to study 1-2 hours before a test so it's still fresh in your mind.

    For bigger tests, maybe create a summary of things that may be asked and go over that just before the test.

    I almost never did homework.

    My grades were never great but enough to pass.

    • New side hustle just dropped

  • Where are you from, is this a joke or something? We have white eggs in Europe and Asia

    • Why do some laws exist if everyone is expected to just break them?

    Jump

  • Traffic speed? If you know where all the speed cameras are, you could dodge them and hope there are no other police checking you.

    • What torrenting software is everyone using nowadays?

    Jump

  • I keep recommending Tribler and I don't know why it's not more popular. Anything wrong with it?

    • Have you ever gone cold turkey?

    Jump

  • Cigarettes when I got some long pain and it actually started to hurt when I breathed in the smoke. Stopped alcohol completely at the same time.

    I kept it up for almost a month.

    • Should people get preferential treatment because they have kids?

    Jump

  • I got exactly one day off for the funeral after a parent's cancer but it's not really comparable. Becoming a parent doesn't exactly happen against your will. I may as well take a dog and claim I need time off to walk it.

    • Should people get preferential treatment because they have kids?

    Jump

  • They already are. Months of parental leave, come back, make another child, get another couple of months off. If the money is it there to allow this, why can't we get some kind of sabbatical

    • What's the most annoying music possible?

    Jump

  • Opera singing and high pitched violin

    • What are the rules of using the toilet in school in different countries?

    Jump

  • In elementary school you needed to ask and take some wooden tag from the class room. Couldn't go if the tag was gone, so only one person at the time. In middle school you don't ask, you just say you're going.

    Netherlands btw

    • Which keyboard app do you use on your phones? Do you enable clipboard history in it?

    Jump

  • I just tried it again but for me it doesn't switch automatically. It's quite annoying since I often write local addresses etc between English sentences

    • Which keyboard app do you use on your phones? Do you enable clipboard history in it?

    Jump

  • It seems with Heliboard you have to switch between languages rather than having it detected automatically. It also doesn't support swiping so not really a replacement for Swiftkey yet, for me at least.

    • Is there any way to play repacks on Linux? [Solved]

    Jump

  • On winecfg you can try the checks on the Graphics tab, it shouldn't break anything. Also, try to change the Windows version. Sometimes either XP or 7 work better. You're right about it being c++, not sure which one I installed, maybe this one: https://github.com/abbodi1406/vcredist

    Jump

  • Install the full Visual Studio runtime and try some different settings with winecfg. People recommend Lutris but for me it never made a difference
