We try to keep it simple! Glad we succeeded for you ๐Ÿ™‚

@counternotions
(But yes, that's because I was born early enough to have experienced it and to want it back)

@counternotions
Mine still does, after some about:config fiddling

@foone
Or you can use a tool to play multiple videos side by side.

4k can fit loads of SD videos side by side!

@nor4 There you go.

Brussels I am in you. #FOSDEM

@ravi
It does work; I vastly improved my English using that method (amongst others).

But in my experience, it only works if you understand enough of the language that you can get the basic structure of what is being said. Otherwise you can't focus on the written and spoken languages at the same time.

I agree with @joostvb 's recommendation to watch subtitled children's videos. Those usually have sentence structures that are simpler and therefore easier to understand.

@killyourfm
That's not true for those who were resuscitated at one point in their life more recently then half a lifetime ago.

@ravi
No, probably not. I only started to do that once I was able to follow basic conversions in the target language.

If you're too much of a beginner, I don't think using subtitles is the best way of learning a language, also because subtitles are not always 100% accurate

@ravi
If you want to improve your language, don't focus on the subtitles, focus on the audio, and use the subtitles only when you're not sure of the audio.

QED.

@icedquinn
And yet, since 2000, Debian has never had less than 6 ports, and for much of that time the counter was at 11.

Looks like it will be 8 for forky...
@whynothugo @lanodan @navi @mirabilos

@lanodan
End result is that you have several years worth of build logs on buildd.debian.org that you can go and audit, as well as binaries on snapshot.debian.org.

And also the core packages are all reproducible, so you can verify independently.
