Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Woo, I expanded my Czech vocabulary tenfold in one day :). I initially went with Czech audio and English subs, but that sucked cause VA's speak fast, so went with both audio and text. I am having a blast, it's been ages since I learned a new language. 000
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I have some downtime, so I figured I'll finally finish Kingdom Come: Deliverance. But, I thought, since my Czech is very basic, might as well play the whole game in it, and learned as I go. I learned English that way, after all! 000

And I've already seen multiple architectural blunders weeeeeeee Meanwhile, the contemporary depiction of the event: 411417
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I suppose it's time to remember I have social media and post something into the void. Oh the struggles of a very introverted person, right? Aight, here it goes: It's a weather we're havin' today, innit? Phew, that was intense. 010
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Oh right, I have social media account. Can't fathom how does anyone manage to keep these things running. I'll probably start engaging more when I have less work, but then again, maybe not 000
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 08/09/2026I'm down with the autumn flu, which is not that bad except I can't breathe. On the upside, I started playing Pathfinder: Wrath Of The Righteous, and damn that game really is as long as its title. Very fun, however. 000
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Seeing how often I realize I know stuff about various niche topics when digging into folklore - thanks to generational verbal transition mostly, I'm starting to consider if I shouldn't write my "lore" down for the kids to read someday. I'd tell them, but kids these days... 000
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 21/08/2026Today I found out about the existence of a piculet and my life is better off for it. The most adorable birb I swear. 020
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Biggest let down of the day: the "go-away-bird" species' are called so because of their vocalizations, not because they want to know if you have any games on the phone. Pity. 000
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Gah, I need a search engine extension eliminating ai results from queries, filtering through the garbage for hours daily is infuriating. Gotta take the time to migrate search engines finally. 000
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 17/08/2026There is so much woo about robins, holy crap. Rare case where even I cannot dig to the bottom of the mental compost pile to even begin to untangle thins clusterfuck. For a bird whose greatest accomplishment is chirping, it sure has a lot of fanfiction. 000
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Ok, honestly this is the funniest thing I stumbled onto today: 011
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Turns out peacocks actively chase snakes peck them to death and eat them, and it's all fine and dandy, but when I do it they tell me to leave the zoo before they call the police. Double standards, I say! 000
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 12/08/2026I wondered who the hell names a bird "nightjar" and then I saw the picture. Yeah, that guy's a nightjar. 200
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 27/07/2026While gathering intel on lyrebirds I was let down by humanity, truly disappointed. All these years and nobody taught a lyrebird the "becky lemme smash" video? Seriously? What are we even doing as a species... 000

Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 21/07/2026I think it says a lot about us that one of Poland's earliest modern scifi is about a wedding where everyone wished the newlyweds happiness and peace so hard, they caused a nuclear winter. 000
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 21/07/2026When I tell people in Finland that the country has a really nice weather by my standard they make surprised faces at me. They don't realize that where I'm from the weather is like the intro to Avatar: the Last Air Bender fast forwarded on repeat. 121
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Beeon out on vacation, now I'm back :). Also, finally solved a very cool mechanic for a game I'm working on, good day overall. 010

Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 15/05/2026One good thing about google's enshitification are the absurd rabbit holes one might fall into when not paying attention.

Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 14/05/2026An ancient Greek saying allegedly goes “The swans will sing when the jackdaws are silent” which is supposed to mean the wise will only be heard when fools stop yapping. Funny, seeing as swans are dumb as bricks while your average jackdaw is arguably smarter than most people. 010

Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 12/05/2026"Herodotus made it the fuck up" is a source of so many cool legends, and apparently also many "facts" one can find on the internet. Damn, Herodotus would hecking looooove the internet. 010
Jakub Wisz @jakubwisz.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Research is fun. Found references to "ancient Greek" myths about the hummingbird, of all creatures, so I investigated. So far I found these myths are originally about the plover bird and those are fake too, apparently Herodotus made them up. This rabbit hole is great, gotta get to the bottom of it. 000
