>So input IPA instead of english for translation?
Oh no, I mean for the letters used to represent sounds when the language is typed/written.
For example, if a word includes a "TH" sound, such as the one used in "that", it would be written with an IPA "ð"

>>35878
why not the slov-sound-spelling alphabet?

>>35897
I'm not familiar

>>35899
Sorry for the delay. It's very similar to IPA but a little more complete. There is a fantastic article in kohlzine 13 & 14. Well worth a read if you are thinking IPA anyway.

That's very typical.
You can see what is written in discord. On Odili's server in the #endchan room. The IRC is bridged there. Private messages can't be sent via that, but the group chat works.

I am Shiban on IRC and Shiban2 as well.

There are interesting bug that can explain "nobody is there": link on main /kc/ page to IRC is wrong (at least for me):

https://qchat.rizon.net/?channels=%endchan

It opens web UI with #%endchan channel as default, so, if user doesn't know about all these channels, he'll get into empty channel.

It is pretty strange, because link on thread page (i.e. /kc/res/...) is ok: https://qchat.rizon.net/?channels=endchan

Link on main page is also ok, although it has different case: https://qchat.rizon.net/?channels=Endchan
IRC channels are case-sensitive by RFC, but looks like rizon or web ui ignore it (don't know who doing it though, looks like UI).

I don't understand why there are different links - do this site really has different top headers, at least in board/channel interface? They look same, so why different templates?

But whatever, here is the possible problem.

>>43721
Heh, you are right.
Home page: #Endchan
First page of a board: #%endchan
In a thread: #endchan
Fun. Gonna ask Odili what's up.
>I don't understand why there are different links
Maybe to deceive the enemy.

I called it an Eastern EU - as in European Union -, not Eastern Europe.

>>43519
So Habsburgs were bad for Eastern Europe I can presume?

>>43540
They had a large impact. But - if being unbiased - I can't say categorically they were bad for Central Eastern Europe. I don't know what would have happened without them, so no basis of comparison. I know however what's going on now and I believe it could be so much better. If I define "better" as a more independent, self reliant Central Eastern Europe, with higher living standards (although I see problems with this living standard thing - for example being indebted forever and capable to buy a new iShit and bluetooth refrigerator every month and having three cars per family counts as higher living standards?)
Could have been the nations turning on each other here prevented? No. Different constellations of the nations could have rise (instead of Czechoslovakia or Yugoslavia), but simply just the "who will be the top dog in this region" would have caused wars, most likely with the tint of ethnic hatred after the birth of the third large political ideology, the nationalism.
I don't blame nationalism, because it is great for uniting people to act together for a common goal based on common interest. But it's easy to fall over to the other side of the horse and hate on the other group just because it's another group. And lotsa people don't have that maturity to see that other people can love their own, how we love ours, and respect that, and can't see that cooperation can exist between these groups.
So Habsburgs exploiting this shortcomings of the people, especially in those times when nationalism was young and it was very much alive, its flames rising high, is unfortunate but it's just a different kind of bad.

This one too, to be honest. And a couple of others.

Do you know why there is a red dragon on the welsh flag? It's like some secret among the welsh. It's because of Merlin, as in the wizard from the round table of king Arthur. Lord Vortigern,a warlord of the time, was attempting to build a castle in dinas emrys. The building works kept getting destroyed by mysterious forces so Vortigern sought advice from those with an understanding of magical forces. Merlin, a young magic half-ling at the time, told of two warring dragons that lived in the hill, one red and one white. Vortigern dug them out and they battled to the death and the red dragon won.

>>35778
Actually even earlier than that, it is mentioned in the mabinogi that an ancient king imprisoned them there. That's less well known though. Most Welsh history is full of magic.

>Something like libgen is good enough for most people, but that only seems to have fiction books (e.g. no results at all for "Quantum")

Libgen is mostly about different academic books. How did you search? There are 8k results

https://libgen.is/search.php?req=quantum&lg_topic=libgen&open=0&view=simple&res=25&phrase=1&column=def

>and multiple books (or ALL books) downloadable in a few clicks.

Do you really need large amount or randomized nonsense that mostly duplicates itself? You also can't read so much anyway, so it is easier to download few recommended books instead of everything.

But if you really want, there are torrents for some collections. Like libgen (text version) on rutracker (500gb).

Main problem is simple - if you want to have multiple collection of books of different type, you need to have community of specialists, and community of specialists wouldn't work on copyrighted books with restricted access because it is tedious task without reward. At least in non-computer spheres of knowledge.

Ty. Will hit them up. Cheers.

>Do you really need large amount or randomized nonsense that mostly duplicates itself? You also can't read so much anyway,
Reminds me the imageboard preppers who hoard informationals and survival books to "prepare" for some kind of catastrophe or big collapse. And they don't realize all those stuff would be useless at the moment when the problem arises. They would be better off with one book - what they read and test in practice before the shit hits the fan. Then if they have the time, they could process another one.
I have a large collection of e-books, but I only downloaded once in bulk, which contained liek 2-300 books, and they are all fiction, "best sellers" or some such shit were they are. It's useless if I don't know what I'm getting.

>* On that note, what is the idea of this site? Most posts are just of pics of rather attractive women. Steganographic images, perhaps? Or just media interest? Bit more varied on this thread.

Its endchan. Its a forum where various boards are run by the users and dedicate it to whatever topic they want. You need to picture other boards as a somewhat separate entities.
On /kc/ we have discussions on a rather broad spectrum of topics. If you look around you'll probably get it how it is here.

See: >>35069
They aren't Russians or Ukros even tho their origins can be traced back to the Kievan Rus. They aren't Poles, or Tóts, or Croats or any South Slav. They are definitely not Romanians. They were part of the Hungarian Kingdom, they were the subjects of the Hungarian Crown, and they are still living on the lands of the Crown. Many of them knew Hungarian before they were attached to any Slavic state and forgot Hungarian entirely (tho mayhap some know even now). They lived for the Hungarian cause, they died for the Hungarian cause. They are Hungarians as any other Hungarians just happen to speak an East Slavic language.

>>35114
>Ruthenian comes from "Rus", they're the same people.

Russian ethnogenesis is pretty interesting, obscure and politized concept. Especially when you talk about "Rus", because Rus people from chronicals may be (and there is plenty of evidence) Scandinavians, and "Russian" is actually adjective in Russian language, i.e. "someone who belongs to Rus". So, Russians aren't always true East Slavs, especially in modern times.

Although, of course, there is close relationship between eastern Slavic nations, and between them and western Slavs. Southern ones more culturally than ethnically related to other groups (although it is debatable too).

Ruthens deserve a bump.
