Ah, we disagree my friend. I think languages can be easier or harder based on other criteria too, and not only familiarity.

Suppose an alien, the kind from outer space, crashes on earth and now needs to learn a language to communicate with humans.

It’s not a stretch to consider that all human languages are so far removed from his own as to be considered equally hard to learn if looking only at familiarity. In this scenario, surely there are features of individual languages that make them harder to learn - stuff like gendered articles as mentioned before, as there’s no logic to them and have to memorized.

These are just idioms, all languages have their own.

Learning English has it’s snags, but it’s not a hard language. That’s a good thing btw.

Yep, that should work fine. I have a mix of Gbit and 100mbit devices and a Gbit switch, each device negotiates the best link they support.

The meme isn’t disrespecting servicemen, it is disrespectful to the skanks that betray them.

Dude this article is from 1 year ago.

Energy is always going to be a critical resource, but a little perspective: last month there were days I was getting paid to use energy.

It really sucks that we’re moving so slowly on installing more renewables though. Relying on external energy is always going to be a problem otherwise

@portugalense@lemmy.pt não querendo ser aquele gajo, mas esse artigo diz que Portugal atingiu 103% de produção em Março de 2023, mas cita um artigo de abril de 2018… Já que vamos viajar ao passado, deixo aqui o presidente da APREN a falar desta notícia, há 5 anos atrás…

Este ano (Jan-Maio) estamos nos 73% de renováveis (fonte)
