It depends on the country. France has extensive coverage of free toilets. Like the article says they have the "self-cleaning" toilets (they're actually very disgusting), many public parks have staffed(!) free toilets and so o

People probably said the same about Nazi Germany at some point. Not even Godwining, they have actual concentration camps over there.

It would've worked better if more people were doing it. I for one am disappointed the World Cup hasn't suffered any interruptions that would allow to showcase Russia's issues on the world stage.

Don't these guys have a super-secretive work culture? Like, you can't even ask what your colleague from another building is currently working on. I'd imagine they'd be very displeased with this leak, and somebody probabl

I think the closest thing to Usenet is Japanese 2channel (now 5channel) web forum. [1] - text only - lots of subboards about every interest imaginable - barely, or completely unmoderated (therefore full of spam and troll posts) - similar re

So nobody wants free speech then? Because speech that doesn't offend anybody obviously does not need to be protected.

Yeah, as a native Russian speaker, the translation "we will bury you" seems correct ("We will be at your funeral" is a more literal translation). "We will outlast you" would be "Мы вас переживём".

The tendentiousness of Wikileaks "reporting" was apparent to me from the start. Unfortunately "USA suxx" is always a popular sentiment to rally people around so people would overlook the (obvious in retrospect) fact that

"doku" (読) in "tsundoku" means "reading". There are several kanji that can be read as "doku". Also I think 中 (chū) from 中毒 (chūdoku, addiction) is used as a suffix for addiction, for example アル中 (aruc

Just a few deficiencies that I found: 1. Jisho can't really do conjugations. It only says "X could possibly be an inflection of Y with these forms" based on the ending of the verb. For example 邪推してしまう becomes 邪推してしまう could be

Except Jisho obviously produces worse results on pretty much any non-trivial sentence. Sure, I wrote my own segmenter because everyone else's wasn't good enough, that's a feature not a downside.

Wikipedia [1] says it has been proven in 2017 that no convex pentagons that can tile the plane other than these 15 types exist. I've been wondering if there's a single convex tile that can only tile the plane irregularly, guess no

IIRC Notepad won't even open files that are larger than [some pretty low amount of kilobytes]. So it's definitely not being used to look through gigantic log files.
