Bonus for the small fence around it which is almost collapsing.

Is that true? The article doesn't provide any reference to support that claim and the Portuguese Wikipedia only has a very brief mention at the 9th paragraph that it's also known by that name, but nothing about being its official name.

Ah, yes, it can have that meaning in Spain too, but not so common. It's all about context, indeed.

"Water drains in opposite directions in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres".

No, it doesn't.

Funny twist: in Spain, "chorizo" is slang for thief, so that would be actually saying "I'm a thief".

Yeah, the key seems to be in the comments from one of the changes: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/commit/0581cd661021752e5063e338c718f211c8929310#diff-bcc2125e56d5738b4778802ac650ca47719845aeee582f3b5c9b46af82ea9979R1176-R1180

It seems there was the potential risk that insufficient validation could allow reading arbitrary server files, which indeed poses a security risk.

However, my understanding is that this could be exploited only by authenticated users with permission to add new media. Not like that's a risk to ignore, but it's not like it could be exploited by anyone on the Internet.

Indeed, you can choose anything you want as the destination language.

A screenshot that shows that the same "I got a new job" that was used in Kagi's example of translation to LinkedIn speak is now used to translate it to Slavoj Žižek speak, offering a long and rambling speech in a Žižek way and offering options to adjust the theoretical focus or the level of Žižekian intensity.

They did something different in Scrubs for Carla, who is originally Dominican and there are multiple references in the show about other people not understanding her when she speaks Spanish. For the Spanish dubbing, they say she is Italian and speaks Italian, which is weird because there are many references to her Hispanic origins in the show. At least that's how they handled it in the European Spanish version, I don't know how it is in the American Spanish version. Because, in case you didn't know, TV shows and movies are usually dubbed to Spanish twice: one version for Spain and another one for the American countries that speak Spanish.

I was referring to the image in this post, which is where the absolute numbers I was referring to are mentioned, and there they are comparing the US and England.

Also, it seems they are comparing absolute numbers and not a rate or anything like that while USA population is almost six times that of England. This is complete anecdata.

And l10n for localization.

 

This is really not a new finding, but just consistent with what was already found by previous studies, but here we go:

The report found that 98 per cent of respondents that had socially and/or medically transitioned had significantly higher levels of happiness and satisfaction.

The researchers found reasons for detransition were due predominantly to transphobia and “challenges related to social acceptance”, such as not being accepted by friends or family for being trans.

“Social and structural explanations dominated the reasons why respondents reported going back to living in their sex assigned at birth at some point,” the report read.

“Only four per cent of people who went back to living in their sex assigned at birth for a while cited that their reason was because they realized that gender transition was not for them. When considering all respondents who had transitioned, this number equates to only 0.36 per cent.”

Russia fined at least seven people for “looking too gay” after a police raid on a nightclub in Tula in February which videos show was carried out by men in military-style uniforms and helmets.

It comes as the Kremlin ramps up a push to promote “traditional values” that has included tightening anti-LGBT legislation and banning “propaganda promoting a child-free lifestyle”.

One man had “crosses of black tape glued to his nipples” and a “women’s style corset” on his “naked” body.

Another had “pink socks … an unbuttoned kimono over his shoulders, his hair dyed bright orange, and red tattoos on his face”.

“Although a man, he was wearing a short top covering his chest, black leather shorts above the knee, on which there were several chain-shaped ornaments, and fishnet tights,” read another description.

“The appearance of the detainees is inconsistent with the image of a man of traditional sexual orientation,” judges were reported to have said.
