Oh great, another recast of the TOS crew, but they're all preteens hijacking a spaceship and fighting preteen Romulans together? Also, they form this deep and meaningful bond that has to be reset/memory wiped by the end of the movie yet somehow steer them onto a shared future?

Ew, blooskie.

All the more reason to chip in as a (human) volunteer translating open source apps 🙂

I've used deepl, and as a "quick solution/I'm fine with the occasional error" translation service it's definitely better than Google. As a commercial platform probably tracking more than I personally care for, trying to corner a market share —not so much.

But neither of the above are fit for translating books of any kind (except perhaps as a joke to emphasise just that). And I'm still doubtful of the "AI" models doing any better.

Meh, it's fine. I used it knowing the literal and vernacular meanings, either is valid here 🙂

Oh, want? I think you're contributing agency to inert goo. 😄 I'm just not certain Boimler's face hair will be able to deal with the steady scrubbing (also chemicals).

Five Federation credits says that disinfectant is going to decimate Boimlers "beard".

You say "chance", I read "intent" 🤷 Mainstream isn't what it's cracked up to be.

While true, covering up fundamental faults to keep afloat is hardly an example of best practice.

Probably more of a !selfhosted@lemmy.world response, but have a look at Heisse Preise?

This weird grudge match is devolving more and more into schoolyard tactics. I've been wary of all the Automattic service integrations even in self hosted WP, and it's turning out even worse than I could imagine. Not with simple enshittification, but with a complete egomaniacal tantrum.

My earnest hope is that all of the former WordPress community supporters and contributors, swivel and start investing their time and effort into WriteFreely.

I'm afraid there won't be one replacement for WordPress, because it has so many applications. The pure blogging aspect could be substituted by Writefreely, more advanced users may go to Ghost, and I'm not sure what small business and corporate websites will turn to?

Have a downvote for the complete lack of context. What is this, why is it interesting to you?

All I see here is a lowest effort share of something that should probably just have been added to your personal reading list 🤷
