That’s extremely noticeable with left handed people trying to draw on whiteboards

I don’t know, but I would’ve think so. Part of the reason is that almost no one actually learns to read this stuff fluently without using the key and going letter by letter. So getting any significant sample of people to test it on would probably be hard

I can’t read (or write) it without the key, however I’m quite fast if I get to do it. I have thought of trying to learn it completely, mainly to see how hard it would be and what I’d learn (apart from, you know, learning brädgårdschiffer) from learning a “new” alfabet. I’d be interested to see how I view it in comparison to regular Latin script. I speak somewhere between 2 and 4 languages depending on how you count and I’ve found every new one interesting and insightful to learn so it would be fun to see if learning to read a new script fluently would be anywhere near as insightful. Ultimately I’d like to learn Korean or Chinese but that be a major challenge and take a lot of time (also, I could probably not squeeze it in to my formal education with the path I’m going to take so I’d have to do it in my free time)

Yeah, sure you can just substitute out the letters or write them out as is. And thanks for the image, i always get problems with images proxyed through ddg and then my instance

Does one two one representations of the Latin alfabet count? In such case I’d mention a cipher used in Sweden called “brädgårdschiffer”. Here is “hej på dig!” written using brädgårdschiffer with my very sloppy writing on my phone:

It’s decrypted by matching up the shape and amount of dots with the letters in the key below. You look at the edges around the letters and the dots above that square.

I do however think that this chiffer probably exists outside of Sweden under some other name and other letters included (note that W and Q aren’t included in the key. They aren’t really used for in Swedish, apart from loans from other languages)

I’d love to see your attempt at an alternate script for Norwegian. I do however speak Swedish but I could probably use it for Swedish to.

Also, regarding Norwegian while you don’t have any alternate scripts you do have two ways of spelling, right? In Swedish there called “bokmål” and “ny norsk”, but I don’t know the names in Norwegian or English.

I’m 15 years old and live in Europe. Almost all of my friends (and the stranger next to me on the train) use Snapchat. Personally I find it very annoying as my experience mainly consist of getting spammed with meaningless, completely irrelevant and utterly boring selfies by anyone I happen to add. And then, just to make things worse people find it inpolite not to answer with another selfie. And then it’s the chats that kinda work but the UI looks clutterd and half baked. Also messages disappear after a while which is utterly annoying.

At least it would be kinda easy to find people on Snapchat (there’s no reason to ask around for someone’s number) if it wasn’t for the fact that people use the most random pseudonyms imaginable so it’s a pain just to know who is who, and almost impossible to pin down new people.

Also I don’t give it location sharing permission, that shit is creepy as fuck, I don’t want everyone that I kind of vaguely know to know where I am all the time

People can be satisfied and have enough, but those people are generally not CEOs or famous actors. Read @Azzu@lemm.ee comment for someone who thinks they have enough money

I find that “carefully included extra margin” outrageously ugly

I don’t necessarily think I’m a bad person and I have meet very few people who I think are "bad persons” even if people can act very badly in the moment.

And for you, I think it’s kinda bad for your mental health going around thinking your a bad person and that you therefore deserve that bad things happen to you. But of course it may very well not be a problem for you so you do you. Being able to realise that your not perfect and maybe even flawed in some sense can also be a good trait for someone to have. Too self confident people can be really annoying

Also, the pixel is quite a good phone

Nah, the pixel is quite unique looking. And also the P***l on the top glives a good hint, just like the “AI” text. And OFC that he doesn’t want to name drop the company that made it (understandable, allot of people here hate Google)

Did you get a phone case with your pixel? I didn’t when I bought my pixel 6a. Anyways, as others have suggested, you could slap some stickers on it. Or you could try to spray paint it if stickers are not your thing.

Maybe it would be possible to just grind the thing down a bit depending on how thick it is. But if you do that it’s probably going to be hard to get a nice finish

Not really? It has alot of icons which are all driven by nerd font. Also you can basically use any font you want, neard just addes some extra glyphs

They Nordic countries type of socialism may not be a replacement for capitalism (I live in Sweden so I’d know) but works alot more like the type of socialism that’s common in Europe.

This terminology might not be on spot but I still think the Nordic countries are what most people would refere to as at least a little bit socialist. Maybe the proper term is social democratic?

Yes i know it’s not perfect and the exact positions might not be completely accurate but I still think the overall picture it paints it useful. Maybe we aren’t the most democratic countries but we’re defently democratic. You can check this whit whatever source you happen to prefere

Thanks, but what should i get out of this apparat from Soviet and Chinese history? What is it you are trying to say with this?

Jag hae inte läst Marx (men har en kompis som håller på med det) och jag är faktiskt 15. Men jag vet en del om vad han tänkte/skrev t.ex. att Marx inte uppmanar till att döda demonstranter och bygga murar för att stänga inne folk. Han beskriver ett samhälle styrt av arbetetarna, inte ett samhälle styrt av en liten majoritet med enorma klasskillnader som i dagens Kina.

From a Swedish standpoint, this is just nonsense. The Nordic countries (Sweden, Norway, Finland, Island and Denmark) are all in the top six most democratic countries in the world (according to The economist, England). These are were much socialist countries and most definitely democratic.

Then you have china, soviet and alike. Those are countries that call(ed) themself communist. I will argue that that’s however mostly used as a label to legitimate the government and to obscure what they really are, in the same manner north Korea is formaly named the democratic people’s republic of Korea (DPRK). Those countries does/did not operate as communist states the way that Marx and other political theorists imaginend them.

Those are amazing! There so cute 😍

I wounder if we could make a script to pick a random one and use it as a background image? It would be awesome to have those as background images but o don’t know if the author would be okay with me using them for that

Please define “we”. This is a international community so you can’t assume that everyone lives in the same country as you.
