• Warm Welcome to Linux P2

  Picking a starting distro is like playing a game, it does not take long for us to stay in our starting town. With various informative sites like DistroWatch, and even a testing site like distro test, our options are endless. Beginners should not get too hung up on deciding which game they want to play as there are tons available. Sooner or later in life, some even leave their starting towns, and even their countries. - Source: dev.to / 14 days ago

• Warm Welcome to Linux

  The common sense I advocate mainly revolves around DistroWatch. High ranking distributions (indicated by the hits per day chart) are generally more favorable for many reasons; stability, support, user-friendliness, friendliness of other users and so on. Over the past few years, I have usually recommended the three major M named distros; Mint, Manjaro, and MX. They have had high favorability over the past decade. A... - Source: dev.to / 23 days ago

• Linux Distros: Ubuntu and Manjaro Fall Further into Oblivion – February 2024

  The broken headline (should say Linux Gaming Distros) reminded me of DistroWatch's value to the community, aside from its unusual ranking system: https://distrowatch.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• I have a lot of questions about Linux as an exclusively windows user.

  Distrowatch.com is a great way to learn about each distro (or at least the big ones) and get all the details about what is in them. Source: 7 months ago

• Betula – federated bookmarking software for the independent web

  The word "betula" in Hebrew means "virgin". Was this intentional? I almost spat out my dinner. https://translate.google.com/?sl=auto&tl=en&text=%D7%91%D7%AA%D7%95%D7%9C%D7%94&op=translate. - Source: Hacker News / 11 days ago

• No "Zero-Shot" Without Exponential Data

  Honestly, these are some of my favorite stories and I think more ML people need to learn more about mythology (I say this as a ML researcher btw). Because once you go down this path you start to understand how "Rino" == "Unicorn". You have to really think about how to explain things when you're working with a limited language. Yeah, we have the word "rino" now, but how would you describe one to someone who has no... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

  Thanks for correcting me. Apparently, I was too credulous of https://translate.google.com/?sl=en&tl=nl&text=monster&op=translate. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• OpenVoice: Versatile Instant Voice Cloning

  First narrow it down to somewhere whose main language you can speak. I picked Germany because I already had some experience with the language and slightly Dunning Kruger'd myself. I like it, but… well, even native German speakers say „Deutsche Sprache, schwere Sprache“ ("German is hard"). Cyprus has a lot of English speakers (and indeed a lot of street furniture that looks just like the UK, plus two UK... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
