  • Duolinguo feels more like a very annoying ad than a learning tool, often under-explaining what it tries to teach while heavily penalizing and shaming the user for getting things wrong.

    What I would suggest, other than hiring an actual teacher, would be to immerse yourself in works from their language, such as music, comics, books, movies, and so on. Also, Spain’s Real Academia Española has a dictionary+conjugator site that is VERY helpful, even for “dialects” such as the Latin America variations (link for the tool is dle.rae.es). Finding someone to try to talk to in Spanish may also help, although getting to know some of the grammar beforehand is advised.

    Now, as for either free or FOSS programs specifically for learning the language, sadly, I’m not aware of any.


  • Opa

    Olha, estou confortável com usar pelo navegador então nem fui atrás de aplicativos.
    Mas ao que tudo indica, o Kbin permite gerar um feed RSS, então pelo menos publicações podem ser vistas em outros serviços.
    E imagino que, tal como a concorrência, tenha um API público próprio, então talvez tenha aplicativo próprio também.


  • Linux systems are usually laid bare for people to tinker with, which for me is specially good if I see something I don’t like, be it software, UI or UX.

    Plus, most PC’s I’ve seen from at least the past ~20 years can run Linux, so if I get my hands on a working PC, Linux becomes an easy choice.

    Plus², Linux can be made very privacy friendly.










  • Dunno when/how a game is classified a classic, but since PS2 is from the 6th gen, guess I have some suggestions! =D
    Ultimate Ninja 5 is pretty cool, I think. Don’t like the anime much, but gameplay loop still feels pretty good nowadays. Only released on PAL and NTSC-J regions, though.
    Dragon Ball - Budokai Tenkaichi 2 is also pretty fun, coming from someone that also doesn’t like the series it comes from.
    I guess Godzilla: Unleashed could count as fighting game too? If so, I recommend it too.
