Regardless of political subtext, I found Master and Margarita a fun read. Nevertheless, Heart of a Dog of the same author was not pleasant to read.

Soviet literature was not worse than the works of pre-Revolution authors and ranged across many genres, from socialistic realism works to fantasy (Soviet sci-fi was great) and also many children books that are loved till this day. Unfortunately, same with other kinds of works, Soviet literature is disregarded by the West, as are many works that don’t conform to the Western values.

Package “linux” is already the newest version.

Sometimes I realize everything is

Yes, in fact I first saw Spleen when I checked out OpenBSD. I think it uses that font by default in its terminal. It looks slicker than Terminus.

Sans serif: Workplace Sans, Ubuntu, Open Sans, IBM Plex, Orpheus Sans (greek), Neohellenic Sans (greek)

Serif: Baskerville, Garamond, Times New Roman, Didot (greek) and Bodoni (greek)

Monospace: DejaVu Sans Mono, Ubuntu Mono, Fantasque Mono

Fixed: Terminus, Spleen

Decorative: too many to list here

Papyrus is a neat decorative font.

Comic Sans is awful and annoying IMO.

I really wish there existed a scalable/vector (TTF/OTF) version of it. Bitmap fonts are usually good only for UI elements, not really suitable for print.

Good luck, comrade! Удачи, товарищ! ✨

Not the topic starter, but at some time I have sifted through that course. Seems pretty good for a free course. Of course one might need some additional materials, more grammar-oriented, depending on your learning needs, but otherwise, as somebody already pretty fluent in Russian, I can say that it is decent.

Synthesizer. I can barely play some soviet songs but I give my best for Gershon Kingsley’s Popcorn. I really like that tune :)

I used to sing when young but I’m not sure my voice is as good now. That doesn’t mean I don’t do it, from time to time, when I’m all alone though.

It is not unusual for niche communities (forums, wikis, etc.) to get targeted by spammers. I think they expect to find less moderation or something.

I have tried to learn Esperanto. Its grammar is as easy as people claim it to be. The most difficult parts, as with any language, are learning vocabulary and finding somebody to practice (unfortunately hard for what strives to be an international language).

Still, at least to me, it feels more like a strange mixture of various european languages than its own thing. One could say it makes it easier to learn, but for me it shows that Esperanto cannot be considered truly international, as to people who are neither from Europe nor from an English-speaking country (who might even be using a diffrernt writing system) it still feels as foreign as English (albeit easier to learn).

I still like the ideals that inspired Esperanto and find conlangs to be a lot of fun. Still, if any language is going to dethrone English in coming years, existing languages like Chinese and Russian have more chances to do so. Meanwhile conlangs like Esperanto, Lojban, Interlingua and Toki Pona are still a very great way to meet like-minded people.

Yes, indeed. That’s sad, I don’t want to create an account and I find Minecraft awkward to play on a computer :(

Strange, it keeps saying “Please log into Xbox to join this server” each time I try to join.

Do I need a (Microsoft) account in order to join?

I also wish Minetest was considered. It is totally configurable with a plethora of mods, all of which are optional, and is totally free. And I just find it much nicer than Minecraft in general.

But I understand that hosting a server is not easy, and personally I don’t think I could host a Minetest server at this time.

Really depends on the language. Besides the obvious big players there are often websites dedicated to self-learning for a single language. Have you checked them out? I’m sure there should be a bunch of those for Russian.

I feel this way about the majority of articles devoted to software of any kind. Being a Linux user and a developer makes the shortcomings, the factual errors and the erroneous assumptions in those articles pretty noticeable and moderately annoying.
