이란 전복 위해 쿠르드족에 손 내민 트럼프···1기 행정부 땐 가차없이 ‘팽’ www.khan.co.kr/article/2026... "실제 트럼프 대통령은 1기 행정부 때 5년 동안 미국과 함께 이슬람국가(IS)에 맞서 싸운 시리아 내 쿠르드족 민병대인 인민수비대(YPG)를 ‘팽’한 전력이 있다. YPG는 미국이 쿠르드 독립국 건설을 지지해줄 것이란 기대를 품고 최전선에서 IS와 싸웠지만, 트럼프 대통령은 레제프 타이이프 에르도안 튀르키예 대통령과 통화한 후 시리아 북부 쿠르드족 자치지역에서 철수해버렸다."

PSA: I disabled autocorrect on my phone* a month ago because it started hallucinating ever more bonkers “corrections” that took forever to undo. That includes weird capitalisations, whole clause restructuring, marking correctly spelled words as wrong and offering a typo as correction and many more papercuts.

For the first two weeks, I had to rejigger my finger memory to account for the things it fixed for me (usually three letter words like thr->the or fir->for). I haven’t thought about since.

I still have to make corrections, and I can’t tell if it is less than before, but at least they are less cognitive overhead because they are simple mechanical mistypes rather than semantic changes, so I feel better off.

Even if typing in a hurry might take a bit longer because the autocorrect got close enough to what had to go out most of the time and I’m a stickler for not making errors, the error case was just too catastrophic/hillarious.

Eerder: de geriatrische oorlogen, de oorlogen van de levende lijken.

"Retro-oorlog"

-> "Een 76-jarige Israëliër en een 79-jarige Amerikaan gooien samen bommen op een Iraniër van 86 jaar. Die laatste overleeft dat niet. De eerste twee oudjes voelden Epic Fury, een epische woede. Vandaar."

-> "Onze geriatrische leidersklasse wil er met een knal uitgaan. Hun
sterfelijkheid maakt ze 'episch' en 'rechtvaardig' kwaad, dus zetten ze de wereld nog een laatste keer in vuur en vlam."

Retro-oorlog
Mathijs Bouman
Een 76-jarige Israëliër en een 79-jarige Amerikaan gooien samen bommen op een Iraniër van 86 jaar. Die laatste overleeft dat niet. De eerste twee oudjes voelden Epic Fury, een epische woede. Vandaar.
Nu krijgen we alle hoogtepunten uit hun jonge jaren weer te zien. Stijgende olieprijzen zoals in 1973, een Iraanse volksrevolutie als in 1979, het sluiten van de Straat van Hormuz voor olietankers, net als in 1984. Misschien straks zelfs Amerikaanse soldaten op de grond, à la 1990. Raketten kwamen dit weekend neer op Tel Aviv, alsof het 1991 is.
De retro-oorlog is helemaal in. De 73-jarige Russische dictator zette vier jaar geleden de trend met zijn door nostalgie en valse geschiedenis gemotiveerde aanval op Oekraïne.
Ondertussen gooit Pakistan bommen op Afghanistan, net als in 1986. De 76-jarige Pakistaanse defensieminister noemt het een 'openlijke oorlog'. Hij heeft er een naam aan gegeven: Ghazab Lil Haqq, 'Operatie Rechtvaardige Woede'.
Onze geriatrische leidersklasse wil er met een knal uitgaan. Hun
sterfelijkheid maakt ze 'episch' en 'rechtvaardig' kwaad, dus zetten ze de wereld nog een laatste keer in vuur en vlam.

Glimmers of hope in dark times, !

Look at the responses to this asking how people experience our emerging fedi..

A landscape of small villages, scattered with occasional larger cities, is the general perception thus far and that is a wonderful difference when contrasting to corporate ad-driven influencer-dominated platforms we have today.

Even more remarkable is the near complete absence of the developer community in mingling in the social side of the discussion.

To learn how actually *experience* this here fediverse. A which results from them tying their apps together, to hopefully get more than the sum of individual parts. By means of facilitating , technically speaking. But it involves more than getting that feature across the wire to the next app.

There's exists a clear gap between and , where the latter must serve the former to bring real solutions. Otherwise it is all apps and not much seamless social fabric to navigate. No peopleverse anywhere in sight. Just apps and users of them.

The apps see great success, and I enjoy their use a lot. But I don't see a future for the app-centric fediverse where it comes to providing mankind the future of .

杜拜還是迪拜?港媒用中國譯法 資深記者:97前譯法以「粵音」為主

杜拜還是迪拜?港媒用中國譯法 資深記者:97前譯法以「粵音」為主

中東地區再起戰火,市民除關注當地局勢變化外,多間本地媒體報道時大量使用中國譯法「迪拜」取代香港沿用多年的「杜拜」(Dubai),做法引起熱議。有資深傳媒人向《追光者》透露,傳媒在97前禁止使用中國譯法,但主權移交後就轉為採用中國《新華大字典》譯法。有粵語保育組織提醒,中國擅長以語言控制思想,但港人目前仍缺乏對這種語言轉變的自覺。 美國和以色列上週六(2月28日)突襲伊朗,伊朗隨後向中東多個國家發射導彈,作為港人轉機熱門地的杜拜亦成為遇襲目標,有關當地形勢的報道亦不斷增加。在戰爭爆發首日,《無線新聞》、《有線新聞》及《Now新聞》三間電視新聞台提到杜拜航班受戰事影響時,均使用中國譯法「迪拜」。 紙媒方面,《東方日報》、《星島日報》、《信報》、《經濟日報》等沿用「杜拜」,《明報》、《商報》、《文匯報》、《大公報》等則採用中國譯法「迪拜」。本台翻查香港公共圖書館的「香港舊報紙主題館藏」,發現早在1971年由杜拜等7個酋長國組成「阿拉伯聯合酋長國」,《大公報》報道時任中國總理周恩來承認阿聯酋獨立時,已經採用「迪拜」一詞,並一直至90年代;至於館藏中的右派報紙《華僑日報》,則較多使用「杜拜」。 資深記者:97前譯地名以「粵音」為主 97後「共識」跟中國新華大字典 有多年電子媒體經驗的記者向本台表示,在97年前本地傳媒翻譯地名多以「粵語譯音」為主,但在主權移交後,傳媒之間的「共識」是按照中國新華大字典的翻譯,故不少譯名均以普通話譯音為主。 而資深記者F(化名)則直指在1997年主權移交前,曾被編輯要求翻譯時「不得使用《新華社》版本」。對於現時香港媒體失去這份堅持,F感到十分難受,她憤然地道,如果媒體報道時使用「迪拜」、「弗吉尼亞州」(維珍尼亞州 Virginia)這些中國用語,「不如要以後用普通話報新聞?」 政府新聞稿用「迪拜」 港官口述多用「杜拜」 官方翻譯方面,香港政府於2021年在阿聯酋成立的經貿辦以「迪拜」命名。本台翻查政府新聞處在過去一年發出的新聞稿,當中有至少16則是使用「迪拜」。惟同時間,官員在口語表述時卻偏向使用「杜拜」一詞。 以過去一年為例,無論是特首李家超去年訪問科威特時會見記者,還是商務及經濟發展局局長丘應樺、署理財經事務及庫務局局長陳浩濂在立法會發言時,都沿用「杜拜」一詞。有政府人士向傳媒透露,港府在使用「杜拜」或「迪拜」並無政治考量,外交部或政府高層
