  • That’s why I just use a VM, I skip all the complications of having to fix bootloaders and broken installs. If anything goes wrong with windows I just delete the VM. Arch barely uses any RAM, so even back when I had only 8GB, windows ran incredibly well. I’ve updated to 16GB (because I needed the 64 bit version of excel and I wasn’t being able to install it due to RAM requirements). Ever since then, I don’t even look back to dual booting.

    Funny story, originally my laptop was dual booted, but I removed windows completely and formated the partition, and since it was at the beggining of the drive, and you cannot move blocks around so easily in storage (I needed another SSD or hard drive to copy them momentarily) I was left with a hole in my storage. What I did was, mount the directory with the VM image storage to the empty partition. So now it’s kind of “dual booting” with some extra steps and with the added benefit of being able to use both OS’ at the same time

    [TL;DR] If possible, just use a VM







  • My instinct would be to click just to find out what exactly is “too sexy” for chauvinists. Same logic applies to the original post’s article I guess.

    I think these articles exploit this instinct. And I’m pretty sure it works for all kinds of people. When you put an opinion piece in some other people’s mouth, everyone will want to find out if the opinion makes sense to them or if it’s completely outrageous.

    “Some people said this about this subject, come judge by yourself (and prove them wrong/right)”










  • I have a dictionary app called ‘akebi’ that shows me the words, the kanjis and the stroke order; and I also use google keyboard with the onscreen-drawing pad for japanese, so every kanji and kana I wrote on my previous comment was hand drawn by me. It takes a bit of time to get used to, but it really helps.

    Also, learning about the origins of kanji, it’s radicals and history helps a lot, you’ll start creating connections in your head about pronunciation and meaning. You’ll associate meaning and sound to kanjis a lot faster that way. I’ve come to the point of hearing a word, learning it’s meaning and then I come up with the possible kanjis that make it up, and surprisingly I’m right 60 to 80% of the time!

    Try calligraphy too. I learned all the kanjis that originated hiragana, and sometimes I see them in the wild and immediately know their pronunciation (60% of the time)

    I’ts a matter of patience, and motivation, A LOT of motivation.

    (Spanish):
    Mi lengua materna es el español.

    (English):
    I speak English as my second language.

    (French):
    Je parle rançais aussi, me pas aussi bien que l’anglais. (Ouais je sais, ce n’était pas un accident)

    (Japanese):
    日本語も できるよ。2年ぐらい 勉強している。実際、去年 日本語能力試験を受けて、N4が できた。言語は 勉強の頑張れば、頑張るほど、よくできるよ。

    (Russian?):
    When I was in highschool I started learning russian, but since then I’ve forgotten most of it, I can only say hi, good (morning/afternoon/evening) and other easy things. I don’t have a russian keyboard but it’s ‘Privyet’, ‘Dobraye utra’, ‘Dobrij bchyer’, ‘Spakoinai nochi’, ‘Spasiba’, ‘Izvinitye, ya nye ponimayu, ya nye goborit po-russkij’, ‘ya nichyevo nye snayu’.

    (German?):
    Ich lerne Deutch im Moment mit meine Freundin. Aber ich bin nicht gut.

    Si quieres algunas observaciones… “¿Qué idiomas hablan ustedes?” Sería lo correcto (de acuerdo a la RAE). Creo que utilizaste la conjugación de la segunda persona singular del verbo hablar “tú hablas”, en vez del plural “ustedes hablan”. Et en français, je ne sais pas pourquoi, mais mon cerveau me dit que “¿Quelles langues parlez vous?” Va mieux. Und auf Deutch, ich denke dass “Welche Sprachen sprechen sie?” richtiger ist.
