In Waloon they are called “vôtes”. Traditionally they are thicker with raisins in them. When made with buckwheat, they are called “boûketes”.

There’s no real link with French. She’s just calling him a sweet boy in proper english I guess.

Yeah, I guess you could realign it without retraining the whole thing! Dunno what would be the cost though, sometimes this is done with a cohort of human trainers 😅

Even though it’s magnitudes lower than comparable models, Deepseek still cost millions to train. Unless someone’s willing to invest this just to retrain it from scratch, you’re left with the alignment of its trainers.

Ni vs e rtoûnez nén, 40% des belges n’ djåzèt nén leu langaedje nerén.

Don’t worry, 40% of belgians don’t speak their language either.

Thanks for the suggestion! I knew it but my country isn’t in it :'( I could get involved to add it though…

I didn’t see the FAQ, thanks!

Sooo, why is the gf on a leash?

Yeah that’s what I’m guessing.

Where’s the rabbit though?

Some people use quotes for emphasis, though. So, not sure if this faculty’s on our side.

Ooh, nice. Thanks for making me discover it! I would have liked a FOSS alternative, but this is pretty good.

Edit: argh, it’s nice for local urban commute, but it doesn’t work outside or between big cities :(

OSM can technically replace Gmaps for shops and restaurants if enough people were using and updating it.

However, Gmaps in unbeatable for public transportation :( no alternative at all

It’s apparently early in development, but there’s an ActivityPub implementation of wikis made by one of Lemmy’s dev.

Why wouldn’t the friends like it then?

Here’s the socially acceptable solution, even in public: you pick it with a handkerchief on your finger.

Thanks! I added “some nebulae” to remove any misunderstanding

I didn’t know the story, thanks a lot!

When we look at the sky, there is a line where there is way more stars than usual. This line goes all the way around the sky. This was called the milky way by the Greeks because it was like a road sparkled with milk drops. At some point, we deduced that we were in a group of stars arranged in a flat disk. Later, we realized that some weird space clouds (nebulae) were much further away than we thought and were actually other huge groups of stars like our own that we named galaxies, still after milk.

There are more details me course. Even along the line in the sky drawn by the milky way, there is one side where there is much more stars and dust than the other. We deduced that we were at the edge of the disk and the bright region was the center of our galaxy. Also, the amount of gas and dust that block certain types of light that teach us that our galaxy has arms.

The Walloon language! The historical and almost extinct language of the region I’ve been living in for some time but from which I don’t really have ancestry (more from the other region of the country).

The language has a really bad reputation (it’s supposedly rude, so different from city to city that it’s useless to communicate, etc.) Almost nobody is left speaking it and the overwhelming majority thinks its good thing.

It’s fascinating, there’s a small group of people trying to standardize it. There’s some drama because the other promoters of the language are academics who want to preserve the local varieties, the opposite to standardization.
