  • Fcitx5 for Chinese, and Flickboard for English. Honestly sad that there isn't a decent open-source keyboard for Japanese though.

  • I don't want to sound like I'm on Discord's side (I dislike nitro too), but that's honestly just how a lot of paid add-on features on free apps work. They take away some functionality from the free one to incentivize people to pay.

    I can also hear the noise that some batteries make when they get charged.

It's called tenshinhan, which is a Japanese reimagination of the food they have in Tianjin, China. As far as I know this dish is just named after that city in China, but it's not actually from there.

  • holy i didn't realize that it was in the title

  • Not as interesting as the others, but here goes...

  • and I think the ROC government in exhile in Taiwan stopped using it.

    Actually it is still used. It's everywhere in legal documents, government documents and stuff. Though people more commonly say 2024 instead of 民國113年.

  • Yeah I still remember his fediverse direct messaging platform. Haven't heard about it since he announced it.

    Maybe he's just too busy?

  • Holy shit the bangs work at the end of the search query too!? I've always painfully pressed Home on my keyboard to add a !g whenever I realise I had better searched this on Google
