Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 24/08/2026Guess who got a Pocket Pikachu off Yahoo Auctions and has two legs? (For now 😄) 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 19/08/2026I'm not usually fussed by Engrish, but I had to mention this to a friend. 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 15/08/2026Yeah, I could foresee that. But still 😆 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 05/07/2026I get a perverse pleasure to share how some people's certainties are actually cultural artifacts, completely disregarded in other parts of the world. Like the fact that many countries of Europe only count 5 continents: Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia and […] [Original post on localization.cafe] 100
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 02/07/2026Hot tip: if you're looking for "it just works" electronics, Sony stuff from circa 2010 on Yahoo Auction is *great*. First of all because it's high quality while being dirt cheap (since nobody wants an also-ran). And because it's surprisingly open. Want to […] [Original post on localization.cafe] 011
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 02/07/2026Geee thanks, we wouldn't want to miss terms for system that went out of sale a decade ago. 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 15/06/2026Nicely worded OVH, that's really clear 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 10/06/2026Fun fact: I worked on the original launch of Chrome! 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 09/06/2026Because the FIRST thing people thought about early GBA games was "wow, this looks so good" 😄 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 01/06/2026What an odd mistake: "Cancel the race" instead of "Race cancellation", "Race cancelled" and so on? It could be a machine translation error over a single line (especially if it's ambiguous in Thay language) but how nobody noticed? Maybe it sound normal when backtranslated into Thay? 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 27/05/2026No really, Italy has the third largest gold reserves in the world. Almost a third of what the US has with just a sixth of the population. 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 27/05/2026Interesting: Japan indeed has the highest public debt in the world at 270% of its GDP but the government overall holds a gigantic financial portfolio of stock equal to 192% of its GDP, way more than Western countries. So if you look at net debt (debt minus […] [Original post on localization.cafe] 100
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 20/05/2026We arrived fourth in a relay race. 😁 It was a small race and a so-so performance. But in the pantheon of amateur running it blasts up through "I did my best", "At least I finished", "I did better than expected" up until the verge of "I won". And I had fun […] [Original post on localization.cafe] 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 15/04/2026[politics] 2026 in a nutshell 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 14/04/2026But I do see why more and more software will try to give you a chatbot reply instead of a full dashboard. Much easier to implement, way lower bar to entry and -most importantly- a wide step towards enshittification. "Thank you for using the software you […] [Original post on localization.cafe] 000
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 14/04/2026Yeah, that sounds fair. If half of your points are unsubstantiated extrapolations, maybe your point isn't as strong as you think. 100
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 28/02/2025The inside of the Imperial Palace is the proof that real luxury is a huge empty space (but cleaner than your lunch table) 011
Alain Dellepiane :eit: :pm: @aran.localization.cafe.ap.brid.gy · 03/02/2025I actually found this space increasingly engaging through 2 additions: Mastodon starter packs, adding a interesting accounts to my followed fedidevs.com/starter-packs And adding other instances "home pages" to Phanpy.
