Mały biały samolot ultralekki z podwieszoną bombą.

Takimi "bombowcami" Ukraina rozwala rosyjskie porty nad Morzem Bałtyckim, by ograniczyć eksport ropy.

To przerobione na bezzałogowce ultralekkie samoloty A-22, dostosowane do przenoszenia bomby lotniczej.

Jakby mi ktoś powiedział kilka lat temu, że tak […]

Heh, seems #Mikrotik doesn’t do WDS wireless bridging with #OpenWRT. So if I buy it I’ll be left with a “pseudobridge” doing MAC translation (a bridge on IP layer but doing additional lookup work on the link layer). No idea how much this hurts performance but doesn’t sound so good…

Imperialism, it's not just a right-wing thing. A meme person died, he was terrible.

But see, out of the US, he barely registered as a very minor celebrity, he's basically just a meme. So when people on the US left moan that the memes are Bad Actually (they're pretty funny). They're projecting […]

Could also buy PCIe wireless cards for the PCs instead of the client and do everything wirelessly… but I think I’d rather keep PC–SteamLink connection wired (and lower the total num. of wireless clients in the network as a side effect too).

Dear fedi, I’m thinking on replacing some #networking hardware at my place. I need an #AccessPoint and another piece working as a #WiFi6 client for 2 PCs and a SteamLink, no need for mesh.

Considering
• GL.iNet Flint 2 for the AP,
• #Mikrotik hAP ax² for the client.

Does this look OK? Other […]

The Celtic preverb *are- < PIE *pr̥h₂i- (notional meaning ‘before, in front of’, but with a much wider meaning than this in concrete formations) occurs as first compound element in many nouns and verbs. It is found in a wide variety of allomorphs that cannot be explained...

Agus cúpla ceann eile…

I’m reading an article on Proto-Balto-Slavic syntax and am getting flashbacks from McCone’s “Insular Celtic Verbal Complex” book, not what I expected.

McCone derived Insualr Celtic from Proto-Balto-Slavic and IE languages are just big dialectal continuum anyway, I guess.

Submitted!

I've been asked to say more about my problems with the letter A of VRAICCI in the ogham inscription I-ROS-003 from Rathcroghan, the famous inscription VRAICCI MAQI MEDVVI which ｓｅｅｍｓ to feature 2 names known from the Táin Bó Cúailnge. Well, a very tricky matter. I'll try to condense it into a 🧵.

So, the “Ukraine coup”… I’m sure you’ve heard about it, didn’t you? Caused all the war and stuff - but what really happened? It was **21 February 2014** and here’s how what #Russia today calls “the coup” _actually_ looked like. A bit… unusual setting for a […]

Yeah, I don’t get the idea of “good” bourbon either.

But for a _really_ surprisingly strong paint thinner taste you should try Mhoba High Ester Rum.

I’m not sure which one that was, either this: www.mhoba.com/products/mhoba-pot-still... or this […]

@mawhrin That said, my own ability of recognizing and naming flavours is shit so take what I wrote with a middle-sized barrel of salt. ;-)

@mawhrin I had the pleasure of trying Ardbeg Hypernova (very limited edition, I don’t think I’m ever gonna see another bottle of it) which is the most smoked Ardbeg ever.

But then any Octomore just tastes and smells of smoke (though maybe not ash and tires on fire).

I don’t know any specific […]

@mawhrin Some more interesting whiskies can have that too tbh. And it also tries to kill you – though unlike whisky through your lungs rather than the liver.

This magical time of the year when the air in Poland has the smell of a fine peated whisky.

An excerpt from the post with this part highlighted: I hit a wall. A journal editor told me that if I wanted to write an article on boasting based on Polish data, first and foremost, I would have to explain what’s different about Polish boasting. In other words, if I had data in English, I could simply publish an article on boasting, because I had data in Polish, I could only write about Polish boasting. English data tell us about the human universal, Polish data tell us about Poland.

Another part of the text with this paragraph highlighted: Now, second, I don’t know how many times I was told by anonymous reviewers that my English was crap. But I quickly discovered a pattern. If I wrote an article which placed the data or research in Poland, my English was very bad. Whenever I wrote something that didn’t identify me as Polish, problems with my English disappeared.

This is another good read about Anglosphere bias in humanities in general: dariuszgalasinski.com/2018/04/14/foreigner-aca...

Anything dealing with humanities in English-speaking societies is human universal. Anything outside is very specific to local community.

I remember being first curious about generative grammar – wanting to learn some _modern_ linguistic theory and realizing I couldn’t find _anything_ that wouldn’t focus exclusively on English. And I was specifically interested in other languages and syntactic diversity…
