a Polish person will pronounce every finnish word correctly and a Finnish person will pronounce most of Polish words correctly.

I’m Finnish and I’ve had a Polish friend for 15 years and I can say you’re most definitely mistaken.

You are saying you never read two vowels in a row?

No. I’m saying the ones which are umlauted don’t go with their umlauted partners. You can äiti easily. That’s mom. But you can’t have Äati. That’s not a word. Ä + a don’t go together.

I may be wrong because of how flexible Finnish is, but I don’t think a Finnish word exists where there is either äa oe öo combination. Äo maybe, but not likely. (edit def no äo either, just not a thing, I checked the exceptions and now I’m sure)

Its something calmed vowel harmony, which is sort of why I don’t see Polish as being any where near Finnish. The amount of consonants you guys use is unnatural to a Finnish person.

Finnish pronunciation is definitely not a “subset of Polish”. Polish is a PIE-language. We’re not even in the same language tree bro.

coöperation.

I come from Poland and we read in a consistent way.

Okay I don’t doubt yours is consistent, but it’s really hard to grasp. I come from Finland and in the Nordics you would never get oö öo aä or äa combinations I’m pretty sure. Å can go with a but a doesn’t really go with ö I don’t think and uhm.

Anyways my point is I’ve no idea how you would go about trying to pronounce coöperation. Or rather what your idea of it is.

I’d couldn’t argue which is more constant, but Finnish is every consistent. And pretty much in line with IPA.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA/Finnish

hevonen [ˈheʋonen]

hernekeitto [ˈherneˌkːei̯tːo]

tule! [ˈtuˌle]

Example of words with their IPA pronunciation. When something like “geography” in English is “ʤɔ́grəfɪj”.

Those don’t look alike at all. So I’m sure polish can be consistent, but to me at least, I’d be afraid of how complex that consistency is.

In Finnish wr say “kentauri” and in ipa that’s pretty much the same.

Probably referring to SMS protocol, 160 7-bit characters.

In a few years the newer phones automatically started just telling you how many messages long your message was.

You’d end up shortening things sort of like a telegram.noSpacesSomeTimesToSaveChars etc. but it’s own style. txting it was called, because “txtMe” is a lot shorter than “text me back, please”.

And they weren’t free so you’d pay by the SMS.

And when you were txting your crush and heard the Nokia sms… and then another, you’d know there was a longer message. Or having a row with them, in which case it wasn’t necessarily a good thing.

And sometimes you’d run out of room on your phone (because the memory only supported like 48 messaged or smth), you’d get a message, start reading it, then it’d say “cont”, but your message memory full icon is flashing (same as got a message, but flashing instead of just the letter icon).

Idk what the argument is but that’s what “original text message” means to me.

I may be biased because moped culture here (as in a vehicle 50cc or smaller, not necessary one with pedals anymore) in Finland has always been a big thing imo.

One of the “classic” models that were from the previous generations was a “pappa moped” which had pedals and had a connotation of being favoured by older gentlemen who don’t want to/can’t drive a car anymore (a moped doesn’t require a licence from anyone born before -85, but if you got a DUI and licence was taken away you’d be in a ban to drive so then driving a moped would be illegal as well.)

They’re allowed to go 45km/h legally but they go pretty much 50 and people tune them to go ~60 usually. Some even up to a hundred but those were crazy dangerous cobbled up machines. And zero gear aside from helmets and some old leather jackets lol

Is this the first time you’ve been made aware of mopeds, as in a vehicle with a MOtor and PEDals?

How about Goldeneye? Two computer people in main roles and I don’t think either can be really called autistic.

Boris is sure interesting, but not autistic. Maybe dips into the spectrum at most.

I mean from my point of view you’re underthinking it.

The design of page layouts for print media is incredibly precise, but that’s not even the issue.

Just like think of any generic magazine. Most of the text is placed in paragraphs around illustrations and quotes and sidebars and whatnot.

Just rotating it will fuck all that up, much like when you move an image in word. (lol)

But yeah that’s “overthinking” it in the sense that while that was important to an entire industry, it was basically just one industry, and everyone used/uses pdf for generic documents without a designed specific layout, and those do rotate, no problem.

Edit no wait you were 100% right I was way overthinking it. You’re just basically saying you’re not rotating the content on the page, but whether it’s on its side on the reader or not, lol. Yeah my bad way overthought it you were absolutely right

Such crude racism.

And it explains why Indian customer service agents always use European names. I don’t want to come off as racist but sometimes I have been amused by a heavy Indian accent introducing themselves with a very traditional European name.

It shouldn’t be funny, because it’s all because of racism and imperialism and colonialism.

But I can’t help being amused sometimes when I’m drunk. I shouldn’t. But I have been.

Fuck racism.

I always answer unknown numbers.

I don’t get scam calls or marketing calls. I’ve had a marketing ban on this number and it has never been listed and it’s about 25 years old or so. Like maybe once or twice I put it somewhere and got calls offering gym memberships for a while but that was a single place and I told them I have a marketing ban on my number so they stopped. It genuinely works to a very reasonable degree here in Finland. It’s not perfect but nothing is.

So when an unknown caller calls me it’s usually a doctor or some such thing I actually do need to reply to. During the daytime. At night it’s the police or fellow criminals.

But what did you assume?

If you have specific graphics on the page which are designed to fit a portrait or a a landscape, they may not transfer well.

Just remember the outrage people have over people not filming thing in landscape, because then one ends up watching a fullscreen video on pc that’s 80% black screen and only a sliver of actual footage on the screen, but we’re used to it.

The page layout is incredibly precise work for most things related to print, however if you’re just using PDF to relay text, it doesn’t really matter at all. But PDF is something you can have as print quality, so you work on a project, you make a PDF, then you take that PDF to the print and they print it in whatever size or colour, but the layout will be the same.

Yea if its just text its very understandable.

Well it would entirely depend on the document how well it rotates.

Rotating isn’t the issue, really, just how well it rotates.

Prints designed for portrait or landscape can be hard if not impossible to rotate properly.

Pure text documents, no problem. edit well the usual fuckery, can be shit. but like some are just impossible to properly rotate if the graphics are designed for portrait or landscape or etc

I was born in the 80’s, I did IT bachelor’s and then print design studies which used all of the Adobe suite and I genuinely don’t understand what rotating a pdf means.

My first OS was DOS.

Edit my point is I’m sure I know how to, I just don’t know what it means

And you’re assuming these people (and the water) are being boiled to be eaten?

The point here is that it’s just boiling because no-one wants to eat that.

Yup

Or Windows crashed.

I mean, “crashed through windows”.

“Hey Randy, grab the bucket, someone’s had explosive diarrhea all over stall three again.”

Putting in a support ticket. “Flushing problem in stall two of the toilets on the second floor.”

So Randy doesn’t need to go through all the flushes to find the broken one.

Shoot MAGA Brains, Dude.
