You didn’t specify which language, but since this is the community for Japanese Immersion, I am basing my answer under the assumption that the language you’d like to learn is Japanese.

First, you would need to get some basics under your belt. I’m talking kanji, grammar, listening and reading comprehension, etc. Apps/webpages like Duolingo are okay, but honestly, nothing beats having an actual teacher. Everybody is going to suck at something and a teacher can advise you how to get better in the areas that are giving you problems. So yeah, if you have an option to take a class in your local school or whatever, I would go for that.

After that, just dive into something. Read a manga, watch an anime without subtitles, play a JRPG in its native language, etc. Fair warning, though: it’s going to feel like a lot of effort at first, you probably won’t understand half the things the characters are saying and that’s completely normal. It does get easier with practice.

If you’re into Zelda, you might want to check out the Japanese versions of Phantom Hourglass (夢幻の砂時計) and Spirit Tracks (大地の汽笛), both on the Nintendo DS. It’s a game meant for all ages, so no complicated grammar and you can tap on kanji characters you’re not familiar with and the game will show you the pronounciation like so.

The Japanese version of A Link Between Worlds for the 3DS (神々のトライフォース2) goes a step further and gives you the pronounciation above all or most kanji characters (picture), so no tapping involved.

Good luck!

Hm, I don’t know. What would you call a person who believes in Jewish space lasers?

I know, I just thought youtube’s choice of thumbnails was funny.

The thumbnail doesn’t exactly inspire confidence…

And ActiBlizz don’t? They may churn out Call of Duty every year, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have a treasure trove of franchises Microsoft might want. They have Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, every Blizzard IP ever, etc. And that’s not even mentioning the IPs they’ve been sitting on for ages like Pitfall, True Crime, Guitar Hero, Vigilante 8 and many more.

Then there’s also King’s franchises, but who cares about them.

Eh, not my cup of tea. Or Solus’ for that matter.

Awwwww. It’s still hilarious, though. :D

True, but then again Bethesda weren’t doing themselves any favours with the dumpster fire that is Fallout 76, having a reputation of releasing buggy games, etc. and Microsoft bought them anyway.

Terrorists, the lot of them.

ActiBlizz getting their comeuppance. Good. The company was shit ever since Kotick took the wheel.

Not the Dora I had in mind.

Yup. And just as a reminder of what Sony’s been up to in the past few years:

• Sony makes devs’ lives difficult
• Joystick drift on Sony’s 400$ console is a thing
• So. Much. Censorship.
• They don’t understand why anyone would need backwards compatibility
• They want their first party games to cost 70$
• Cross-gen upgrades now cost money.
• Spent 5 years building up a studio that never produced a single game, then shut it down
• The bastards shut down Japan Studio. No, I’m not pissed, why do you ask?

Why do we care about these guys again?

I’m all for sustainable materials, but what does this have to do with web browsers?

1300 dollars? Oof, that’s steep. How are they going to justify that price tag, I wonder?

But not on Mondays.

That’s very nice and all, but when are we covering Tachikoma piloting?

There’s Super Pilot, but it’s still in development.

They be like… pineapple lovers?

Something like this?

Looks like it: https://github.com/revoltchat/self-hosted

Docker seems to be the only option, though.
