As long as they're not the ones tortured, enslaved or imprisoned....no of COURSE it'll never happen to them, they're too pale for that.

Kinda interesting how Ryan Reynolds got Netflix to put Welsh subs on his random-ass films

But couldn't get Disney to put Welsh subs on his documentary about Wrexham

But why?
Can Welsh people pass the test themselves?

Unfortunately I don't speak a language that is very niche but still big enough for YouTube to support it, so it'll have to be Swedish.

I've decided to change the language of my YouTube account, so that hopefully they'll stop pushing the crap auto dubs on me.

If my language is niche enough, they probably don't have a dubbed track ready for me.

And it's not like they've started making changes to the bus routes (yet). It's the same routes that were there before the bee network was a thing.

arghhhh why is manchester such a bizarre part of the UK where I feel somewhat positive about the future?!

this place is a dump but it's also a weirdly nice dump

Couldn't they just keep the codepoint and (slowly) fix the fonts?

Having been in an academic community for the past decade, I can say that in terms of things like spelling, I trust the average non-native speaker a lot more than the average native speaker.

Bro just felt creative, didn't expect linguists and computer nerds in the future to squabble over his lil cute drawing

The crazy thing is not that they exist, but that they all MADE IT INTO UNICODE

We need a visual on said cooling headwear. @laserhedvig.bsky.social could we request a guide

YouTube's been pushing auto-dubbed videos hard lately... Once in a while it's a topic I genuinely want to watch, but then I know that if I click it, I'll have to endure the robot voice for a few seconds before I can get in the settings and switch back to the normal German.

So I'm sorry BR24 but no.
