It is boring, but I'm also a fan. A little streak of colour somewhere and some more interesting content should keep engagement levels up?

:+1: for the design, guy! Cyberpunk done well. Just needs a 90s feel "Metadyne" style corporation name slapped across it and a neon/rain page and I'll never leave.

Get yourself autocomplete set up in Vim. For large amounts of prose with repeated vocabulary it really does save time and effort. Bonus points for using it in mutt for all electronic correspondence. Also, why the Dickens are you using Windo

I see two options that address the concerns and goals realistically. 1. Put a dumb phone in a faraday bag for 99% of its life. 2. Keep a physical phone book and ask strangers or businesses to use their phones. Paying your way, of course.

Not using a smart phone atm, but this is my backup device for occasional quick photos/2FA etc. and it is fine for the job and doesn't leak data. It does try to get updates and info from Canonical, but I block that in my pihole set

Easiest way: check the log to see what was blocked. It's as simple as that. Happens so infrequently though - the lists are made up of domains you don't typically want to whitelist. Only 133,608 on my lists though, and that's

I wanted to say something positive too, after seeing how the thread went here. No issues from the non-technical users in the household, at all, really. The domains I've whitelisted are mainly one-offs - I haven't whitelisted GA as

Good to see you here! I have a few questions if you're still about. Have you worked with professional translators much along the way? Most of us use and keep our own translation memories stretching into the millions of segments. What w

As a general rule it probably depends on what you're trying to translate. If it matches the corpus well, you'll do better. This is simplified, of course, as NMT is a bit of a black-box. But we know the GIGO concept still applies.

I think OP is referring to the widely used CAT (computer-aided translation) tools that save every sentence you translate into a translation memory (XML file, known as TMX, usually) to be auto-inserted when those sentences (segments) re-occu
