I have finally figured out a way to poorly and incorrectly mispronounce "dólares" so that it would finally let me through the exercises that include numbers and money. There is no single word it has struggled to understand more than that one. And trust me, I am saying it correctly. Good grief!

What about you? What words does Duo refuse to accept from you?

Does anyone know where I could find comparisons of the various Lemmy clients available? I'd like to see something contrasting things like app maturity, features available, update release frequency, and etc?

I'm looking to try out some of the more mature clients since the one I'm using (Boost) has been exhibiting some problems for me recently. I wanted to narrow down the cause of the problem and will be trying other clients to make sure my instance isn't the issue. I'm writing this from Eternity (Nightly).

Is there a way to enable logs outputs? I'm getting pretty regular timeout errors on my primary instance of choice. I'd really like to know more details about what's going on.

EDIT: I find the article interesting, but not in the good sense. I'm glad to know, but it only leaves me feeling achy.

I also find the down votes for this post interesting. The source is trustworthy and accurately reflects the US American populace. Perhaps the negative votes simply reflect how many, including myself, feel about this news in general.

“It revolves around safety, security, and, I think, common sense. It protects our children and grandchildren in private spaces where they are most vulnerable,” said Republican Ohio state Sen. Jerry Cirino, the bill’s sponsor.

Older article (2023), but sharing for those unawares.

The birds - which have been around since the prehistoric Pleistocene era - were officially declared extinct in 1898.

After their rediscovery in 1948, conservationists began collecting and incubating eggs from wild takahē, to prevent them from being eaten by predators

This kid really is incredible! I heard him and his mother interviewed today on All Things Considered. Managed to find this Audubon article to show my family. It links TikTok videos that show off what he can do. I don't really know how to share those directly and they often don't work for me because of registration requirements. I think they should work for at least one listen for you all though.

The Biden administration has warned Israel that it must increase the amount of humanitarian aid it is allowing into Gaza within the next 30 days or it could risk

The Biden administration is doing the best they can possibly do. /s

How do you teach a bird how, and where, to fly?

The distinctive Northern Bald Ibis, hunted essentially to extinction by the 17th century, was revived by breeding and rewilding efforts over the last two decades. But the birds — known for their distinctive black-and-iridescent green plumage, bald red head and long curved beak — don’t instinctively know which direction to fly to migrate without the guidance of wild-born elders. So a team of scientists and conservationists stepped in as foster parents and flight instructors.

“We have to teach them the migration route,” said biologist Johannes Fritz.

This is kind of big news. I never would have expected it.
