[00:57:55] <.labster, replying to pixldev> Go ahead [01:02:05] [1/4] Labster, [01:02:05] [2/4] Is it possible to talk about adding specific issue channels like on MediaWiki Discord so that we avoid double support threads? [01:02:05] [3/4] But people go directly to that channel?

I am mildly annoyed by all races equally.

[01:11:28] But i like it [01:11:32] <.labster> Paladox will come back [01:11:47] Not unlikely [01:11:47] Let him enjoy his retirement [01:11:55] <.labster> In a year or three [01:12:16] Yeah, he left with owen, and going by his user page, I don't think hes coming back [01:12:45] [1/2] For christians time is connected with God. [01:12:45] [2/2] (Bible: God has no beginning, nor an end, he is eternal, so time must always been there) [01:12:52] Reminded me a lot of Johns page [01:12:55] <.labster> Yeah that’s what I said 3 years ago [01:13:10] Isnt that what owen said the last 400 times he quit [01:13:30] wouldn't know [01:13:48] Bro [01:14:08] Wizards of Waverly place is coming back [01:14:12] ? [01:14:15] Thats all that matters [01:14:31] [1/2] also ngl im curious what he meant with [01:14:31] [2/2] > the same respect for the community and data privacy that I was proud of is not going to be maintained under WikiTide. [01:15:13] It's pretty obvious what he meant by that but these discussions are better left to rest peacefullg [01:16:14] Eh; agreed [01:16:40] I'm watching Halo S2 and I've no idea whats going on [01:16:48] so confusing think i slept all the way through S1 [01:18:50] <.labster> Being on the board I know exactly what he means and that it was based entirely on misunderstanding [01:37:02] From the little I saw about how they made Chief talk to Cortana...that was already enough for me to not watch it. [01:37:23] Because I played just about all of the main games for it. [01:37:34] Chief would have never talked to her like that. [01:40:50] I never got into the games. Played it for about an hour and it wouldn't let me exit the tutorial got real boring [01:40:56] lol [01:41:17] Well, I played it starting at 5 years old (I wish I was joking but I'm not) [01:41:24] With Halo CE. [01:41:43] Such fun childhood memories. [01:42:36] Halo games > Halo series [01:42:56] and nobody can change my mind [01:43:36] Inb4 I get reborn as him in March 2511 [01:44:18] <.labster> Red vs Blue > Halo TV [01:44:50] <.labster> That would be a fun isekai [01:44:54] lol [01:45:10] Unfortunately I never did much multiplayer with it though. [01:45:26] Though I was in a modder's live stream when he modded us to be...Halo 3 hunters. [01:45:28] that was fun though [01:45:32] <.labster> Btw Megacane what happened to the Hypercane? [01:45:37] I destroyed him [01:46:00] He was too weak anyway. [01:46:04] <.labster> You are a destructive phenomenon [01:46:07] lol [01:46:19] Speaking of Halo Modding... [01:46:21] That reminds me. [01:46:30] I modded one map in H2 to be a hunter in it. [01:46:34] I wonder if it still works... [01:59:58] what would happen if I put volenteering for the WIkiTide Foundation/Miraheze on a collage application? 🤔 [02:00:53] Wouldn't hurt [02:01:01] Wouldn't help either 😄 [02:01:59] Who knows? Technically it is volunteering for a 501(c)3 [02:06:39] Just have to exaggerate its importance [02:08:04] "Volunteered to help legally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit Wikitide Foundation, the organization running the open source wikifarm Miraheze hosting thousands of wikis, including wikis for Adafduit, Wikimedia Indonesia, and others" something like that [02:08:21] Also maybe add all the cool revolutionary CSS coding you did or something idk [02:11:14] gotta overhype those edit counts for all they worth [02:11:50] Yea [02:12:48] remind me again why we host wikimedia Indo? [02:13:23] don't know [02:13:31] <.labster> they gave us like $1000 [02:13:35] wmf didn't feel like hosting it idk [02:13:47] Yeah but like [02:13:58] Why doesn't the WMF just host itself? [02:14:08] so are they like offical an WM project? [02:14:11] <.labster> It's not WMF, they're not even in the same country [02:14:20] Oh [02:14:34] So is Wikimedia Indonesia not related to the WMF? [02:14:43] <.labster> It is, but it isn't, like, okay? [02:14:50] Alr lmao [02:15:03] guh [02:15:15] well theres https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Indonesia [02:15:16] <.labster> WMF is so big that they don't always support the outlying projects [02:16:08] its an affiliate [02:16:10] hm [02:16:44] <.labster> Again, they've more than paid for their hosting, and they're a nonprofit, so they're pretty clearly a good wiki for us to host. [02:20:01] [1/2] .. [02:20:01] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1211135481144938506/U9VSwBL.png?ex=65ed18d0&is=65daa3d0&hm=a95f33cc4fc467c60bddfbbaeb4027a0c63e0401de7bdba9b397fdfad64981f5& [02:20:02] anyways [02:20:18] TIL there are Mirahezens who have served on ArbCom [03:06:31] feedback on my monarch list page? [03:06:32] https://oblasia.miraheze.org/wiki/List_of_Yosaeoni_kings [09:46:56] You could definitely do it in a way that's useful [09:47:22] I have experiencing being on a job interview panel but no idea how college interviews work [09:47:37] For job interviews, first impressions count a lot [09:49:01] For my company, we have boring set questions we have to ask and score you against which are openly available on Google (so you should be prepared). When I reviewed the application for the person I was interviewing, I was looking for what I can ask more about. Things you're interested in. [09:49:41] I then see because it was graduate interviews if you are someone I think is a nice person, cares about the role, will be able to be taught the right skills [09:50:16] For graduate interviews, we, in my team, don't expect you to get the technical questions correct and some of them might not have a 'correct' answer. [09:51:16] It is scary how quickly you form an opinion though. Like, first impressions count, we start with a presentation from the candidate and if you're presentation doesn't capture my attention, you ain't getting the role. [10:18:39] could work if you hype it up. Really focus on it being a nonprofit that you volunteered your time and skills to [10:19:03] but then again I have never been to college/uni DSFGFDSFGFD [10:19:36] BUT I DO KNOW JOB INTERVIEWS, and with those you've just gotta exaggerate and make shit sound impressive [10:21:31] "I help my grandma" nuh-uh. "I assist an elderly, physically impaired relative in her day to day duties, such as house chores, shopping, and spending time in the community." [10:21:49] this gal interviews [10:22:45] 📝 taking notes, maybe I could try to spin my SWE role here in an interview [10:22:57] Sound impressive but realistic [10:23:05] Remember, we can smell bs [10:23:07] SDSDFDS You can sell just about anything if you word it correctly [10:23:11] MHMHM [10:23:47] I'll add my reception wiki babysitting to a resume, that shoud get me far [10:23:51] Even just elaborating on your duties helps. Like, I do help my grandma go shopping and clean the house and go down the street with her. [10:24:20] Moderating a community that puts you in a position to handle conflicts can look good [10:24:49] endless conflicts [10:24:54] Y E A H [10:25:17] all over some pokemon game being iffy or a single episode of some show not being someone's cup of tea [10:26:01] or meeting the kind of person who Types Like This And Then Does This Because Why Not [10:26:10] Look at Level 1 or 2 in https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5b27cf2240f0b634b469fb1a/CS_Behaviours_2018.pdf [10:26:49] ^ chrome icon has ruined me to that style of logo [10:29:09] [1/2] Honestly I could probably bring up my experience moderating a fandom wiki in an interview "For the past several years I have been in charge of a small but passionate online community with a diverse range of users. Because of this, I have experience communicating to people from a variety of backgrounds, including people who struggle with English or who may have some level of impai [10:29:09] [2/2] rment. My position also gave me the responsibility of settling disputes and enforcing rules." [15:12:13] [1/2] Does this apply to any other wiki staff teams or just me? [15:12:13] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1211329814439530506/image0.jpg?ex=65edcdcd&is=65db58cd&hm=81afa0fa500b01564a9c84d520e019f09d3dd0e37c654ed48e1a3bc3892b7213& [15:13:33] (Bottom is me) [15:53:24] I mean, I have had my share of moments with mine, so. [17:04:00] guys someone give me a wiki joke please [17:09:07] A guy walks into a bar; he immediately gets into an argument about whether the bar should be called a tavern [17:10:36] lol [17:11:45] A guy walks in and demands to speak to the manager administrator. [17:12:05] Best I can come up with for now. [17:15:04] lmao [17:15:12] Hmm yes, the silence fills the empty grave. [17:15:14] Im looking at a list on enwiki [17:15:20] and these are just bsd [17:15:27] lol [17:15:34] One of the better ones [17:15:37] At least they exist apparently. [17:15:44] Who on Wikipedia is hest as board games? [17:15:55] And don't ignore my existence... [17:16:00] no clue [17:16:03] who? [17:16:07] Clue Bot [17:16:12] so funny [17:16:24] xd [17:16:35] Why was the lumber Jack excited to discover Wikipedia [17:16:57] Something something lumber article? [17:16:58] because of all our logs [17:17:03] lol [17:17:21] What do you call a functionary who lives in Prague? [17:17:37] Want to hear a good joke? My wiki life. [17:17:45] CzechUser [17:17:51] LOL [17:17:57] and these are the not as bad ones note [17:17:58] checkuser moment [17:18:26] Why did arbcom surpress the mistaken edit? [17:18:41] because they made an oversight [17:18:48] lmao [17:19:43] oversight and czechuser a legendary combination [17:20:00] Why did the CIA make a Wikipedia account? [17:20:06] oh my [17:20:06] It was on their watchlist [17:20:12] LOL [17:33:22] this somehow turned into an hour of me preaching the good word of Miraheze outside of that ticket. As it should be [17:33:26] :aquaSalute: [17:44:59] nice [17:57:46] going from never having heard of us to being a maybe use is good [19:12:57] I waited for someone from Wikimedia to answer my application for schollarship, yet it's has been a few days from the intended timeline... [19:16:00] It's sad that our Vietnamese user group didn't get an single participants for ESEAP conference this year- [19:24:19] Ruined sleep schedule moment. [19:24:32] But it is slowly getting better. [19:24:44] that's what I tell myself too [19:24:48] lol [19:24:57] while I'm up at 1:30 AM watching anime/youtube [19:25:05] Hey, for the past idk how long since I got this new medicine to help with sleeping... [19:25:10] I haven't been up much past like [19:25:11] 11 pm [19:25:17] Last night was an oddball though [19:25:20] I was up till almost 2 am [19:27:25] I kind of "try" to sleep 8 hours when I have to wake up early like for school [19:27:43] but I just can't [19:27:46] Better than I was. [19:27:51] I would just go as long as possible. [19:28:02] Until I felt extremely tired. [19:28:16] I wasn't going to sleep if I didn't feel tired enough. [19:28:17] :salute: [19:28:22] lol [19:28:24] me too, until the weekend [19:29:01] it is only during the weekend that I have the willpower to just go to sleep at normal hours [19:29:09] Ah [19:29:15] otherwise I go until my eyes shut [19:29:22] This was me too. [19:29:38] I would even push myself to my physical and mental limits too. [19:29:40] That was fun. [19:29:47] Trying to not pass out at work. [19:30:22] Yeah uh, general life tip then...if you're scheduled an opening shift as MOD somewhere...get some sleep. [19:30:42] I found that out the hard way. [19:33:45] Link? [19:34:01] it was a joke [19:34:12] @bluemoon0332 sleep issues are awful [19:34:28] they sure are [19:34:36] take it from someone who has had that problem too [19:36:02] It was [[w:Wikipedia:List of Jokes about Wikipedia]] maybe [19:36:02] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_Jokes_about_Wikipedia [19:36:03] [19:36:14] nope [19:36:25] it was smt close to that [19:37:10] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_jokes_about_Wikipedia [19:37:18] This [19:37:40] Now that I found the link for myself though...I must read it. [19:37:47] Godspeed [19:37:56] lol [19:57:59] Well, on the server I once created for a wiki on Fandom...to get banned from it is like being thrown away like trash in my pov. [19:58:34] I wonder if I am able to even have proper human emotions at this point. [19:58:39] Anytime I try I get into trouble. [19:58:43] And I hate it. [19:58:56] I might as well be some emotionless machine. [20:00:04] @ultracane1997 I don't think you should be an emotionless machine [20:00:16] Yeah well, my emotions seem to always backfire on me anyway. [20:00:27] Typical person on the spectrum moment. [20:02:34] @ultracane1997: you can succeed, I work with a lot of people on the spectrum and they're doing pretty amazing shit [20:02:48] If you are struggling, please reach out to someone [20:03:11] Yeah, I wish that could happen to me too at this rate. [20:03:18] My future does not seem too bright at this point. [20:03:33] It honestly...seems pretty dark. [20:03:54] I promise you it's possible [20:04:01] I can't say I understand the struggles of someone in the spectrum, since I'm not [20:04:09] I unforutnately am [20:04:14] but I too don't look to brightly at my own future [20:04:22] Trust me, I don't either. [20:04:32] I'm going to take this opportunity point out https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mental_health_resources for our users should it be needed at any point [20:04:46] I'm neurodiverse [20:04:51] Thanks, I should've looked that up last night. [20:04:57] hm? [20:05:00] oh interesting [20:05:14] Why [20:05:40] I am diagnosed with dyspraxia and dysgraphia. I probably have autism too. [20:05:41] Working for literally a fried chicken corporation always makes me filled with intense amounts of anger. [20:05:56] Well, I feel time just slipping away, and losing control of my life [20:05:58] I've always had intense anger problems. [20:06:18] I'm wondering if I'll ever be able to have my own house [20:06:21] It was fun when the school system would rather suspend me than try to actually help me. [20:06:26] Nonetheless [20:06:32] I still graduated high school [20:06:34] The only job I ever had barely lasted me more than a month [20:06:37] When it was not expected [20:06:45] So I still got the last laugh [20:06:46] How old are you? [20:06:55] I told you, 20 [20:06:59] I'm almost 27 [20:07:03] The school system is a pile of shit [20:07:06] my birthday is on March 1 [20:07:12] lol you're telling me [20:07:44] I have a pretty useless memory. You're the same age as me. You got loads ahead of you. House prices are pretty insane though. [20:07:47] They thought I would not make it past middle school at one point. [20:07:55] You do better with evening courses. or online courses in your own tempo. [20:08:01] Still, I graduated... [20:08:06] and I got to laugh last [20:08:07] hahahaha [20:08:17] I love proving people like that wrong. [20:08:24] The stuck-up arrogant people. [20:08:43] hey, good job on that [20:08:50] not hard when people think you'll fail [20:09:02] Yeah, I actually graudated pretty solidly. [20:09:13] Despite everything. [20:09:26] My lowest final exam was in English but I expected thta. [20:09:35] C- or w/e [20:09:47] [1/2] Thing is... Education systems are always late to the table. When there is shortage in a sector, it takes a few years for schools to focus on that. And all schools do that. [20:09:48] [2/2] Then we get a load of new comers in that sector, and most then can't get a job, as the market has changed. [20:09:48] I was always terrible with that subject. [20:10:12] Yeah well, my experience was not the greatest. [20:10:15] But I made it. [20:10:31] The English exam and my brains way of thinking didn't get along [20:10:40] English was my second worse grade at GCSE [20:10:46] French was worst [20:10:51] I got shoved into a locker at one point, and I ran after the kid ready to pounce on the guy...then my knee gave out and I fell on the floor. [20:10:56] I love school bullies. [20:13:56] Me and exams in general. [20:14:00] wait no not exam [20:14:03] essays [20:14:11] <.labster, replying to bluemoon0332> technically a spectrum contains all values so everyone is on the spectrum [20:14:28] Essays suck [20:14:29] I absolutely loathed English classes because of essays... [20:14:33] Agreed [20:14:34] they do [20:14:38] I'm still working out the right way around essays [20:14:45] But I have help now [20:14:46] I never found out. [20:14:56] Because I ended up dropping out of community college. [20:14:57] Exams just shouldn't exist [20:15:01] Learning a language? Move to the country for two years. You learn it better then you'll ever do in school [20:15:39] That could apply to a lot [20:15:49] Schools are pretty shit [20:16:03] They don't teach the most crucial bits [20:16:16] Then I'll move to Japan. [20:16:19] And ask people not to talk to you in English but in that language, helps with learning pronounciation [20:16:27] To view Yu-Gi-Oh! without the subtitles. [20:16:34] so fun [20:18:12] <.labster, replying to ultracane1997> The good thing about dropping out of community college is you can just go right back. I got kicked out of a graduate program and they do not just let you back in lol. [20:18:12] [1/2] I moved from The Netherlands To Denmark. [20:18:13] [2/2] I learned Danish in 1,5 year, and after 20 years I speak it fluently, and understand most of the Swedish and Norwegian Langguage too, as most programs on the Telly get shared between these countries. The languages are quite similar. [20:18:33] Why you get kicked out [20:18:41] Yeah well, money is still an issue. [20:18:52] Welcome to good ol' America. [20:19:12] You pay tens of thousands of dollars usually for even a chance to get a career. [20:19:17] And then have to pay it all back. [20:19:31] They didn't speak Labster Sarcasm Language? [20:19:38] Not looking forward to it either way... [20:19:47] <.labster, replying to rodejong> o snap [20:19:52] 😄 [20:20:18] The only memorable event there for me is finding out that Canadian Geese are...quite vicious when provoked. [20:20:34] I love finding things like that out for myself. [20:21:09] The times you find out things the crazy way is fun [20:21:10] Should try that with a crocodile then 😄 [20:21:13] <.labster, replying to rhinosf1> I lost focus on the studies. Honestly I wasn't that self-starting in research, I just liked academic life. I ended up focusing on politics (which is not related to atmospheric science), and slowly fell out of love with the field. Not things you want to find out in a PhD program. [20:21:15] As long as no one dies [20:21:22] Yeah...uh no [20:21:34] Unless I had a death wish. [20:21:39] Fair enough. I guess we won't get Dr Labster [20:21:51] I ran for my life from the geese though. [20:21:57] it was fun looking back on it [20:21:59] <.labster> It's not really fair, I still owe student loans [20:22:13] Like literally everyone else [20:22:17] or well most [20:22:18] lol [20:22:18] <.labster> I wouldn't owe any student loans if it weren't for the US Supreme Court. Fuck those guys [20:22:19] I guess it was funnier for others who saw it! [20:22:28] I did have some of the best times at school when we did crazy [20:22:29] I didn't care what they thought... [20:22:37] Disappointing [20:22:40] Even if I did hate some of the more stressful times [20:23:00] The memories you can make doing crazy shit with mates last a long time [20:23:03] I actually ran just fast enough to just narrowly avoid getting bit. [20:23:14] so fun [20:23:15] I think that the worst thing on school, was peer pressure [20:23:26] Or well peer pressure anywhere [20:23:35] And for the record, crazy shit doesn't include any alcohol or substance. My friends didn't need anything to send them crazy. [20:23:36] I get peer pressured all the time to hit a vape [20:23:43] I still keep saying no [20:23:56] Ye stay off the vapes [20:23:57] at work nonetheless [20:24:02] And any tobacco [20:24:05] Yeah, but as an adult you're more experienced to dealing with it. As teenagers, opinions matter [20:24:18] Actually, I got exposed to it as a teen too. [20:24:23] But yeah [20:24:24] the initial cultural shock must be a lot though [20:24:25] ik what you mean [20:24:42] <.labster, replying to rodejong> I don't think I could handle learning Danish. My stomach couldn't handle swallowing all of those words. [20:24:50] I rather learn Japanese. [20:24:57] Yes it is. Still is sometimes. [20:25:06] Just so I could watch the subbed versions of the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise... [20:25:12] <.labster, replying to ultracane1997> いいね [20:25:25] Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's would be so fun to watch without subtitles... [20:25:38] Unfortunately I'm still not that fluent in it. [20:25:54] Actually In the first year, I had to go to the doctor, as I had to use my throat differently, it became inflamed. So needed treatment 😄 [20:26:00] "nice" [20:26:03] okay yeah [20:26:08] it would be nice [20:26:38] I think this is iine but not completely sure about the last character it might be wa [20:27:16] <.labster> @collei_no_last_name @ultracane1997 Learn the kana, it's not that hard [20:27:24] I am [20:27:43] It is hard though because there's so many and they all look the same [20:27:45] Yeah, I do better with words than symbols. [20:27:51] Ok yes it's iine [20:27:55] I still have a lifetime subscription to babble too so [20:27:56] What's that mean [20:27:58] so fun [20:28:19] heh [20:28:34] The versatility of the vocal chords is impressive though [20:31:34] <.labster> The trickiest think about the kana is that は is sometimes read as "wa" instead of "ha", because of sound change of the topic particle [20:32:31] <.labster> Which is honestly easier than figuring out Spanish "x" which is "Latin x, but also random foreign sounds" [20:58:45] The most difficult thing was Counting in Danish [20:59:01] To grasp that system 😄 [20:59:17] Take 57 [20:59:26] 50 and 7 in English [20:59:38] [1/2] when I was looking for beta UI screenshot to post in general, I found this [20:59:38] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1211417243783528529/pnzsi5ez5tfz.png?ex=65ee1f39&is=65dbaa39&hm=37ea1f18f384ed9b49c264fac13d95968b79930df1f4490891e7cf1b6f4a38a6& [20:59:39] In Portuguese as well [20:59:54] In Danish it is 7 and Half 60 [21:00:06] oh come on [21:00:11] wait [21:00:13] 50 [21:00:15] is [21:00:19] half 60 [21:00:25] Correct [21:00:28] pardon the FUCK [21:00:32] From 40 to 60 [21:00:38] WHY [21:00:39] It is Half 60 [21:00:53] Don't know [21:01:03] They count in 20's [21:01:22] [1/2] Tres = 60 [21:01:22] [2/2] 3 times 20 [21:01:43] Tresindtyve [21:02:07] Mas, não faiz Sentido?? [21:02:55] Hmm, mt Google Translat is not working 😄 [21:03:15] ”But, it doesn’t make sense” [21:03:24] ngl i had to use translate a but myself [21:03:27] I know the words [21:03:33] I don’t remember the spelling [21:03:41] so i use it to check [21:03:58] ie i first used Mais(more) instead of mas(but) [21:04:10] I left brazil at 2 and it shows [21:04:20] ah [21:04:33] Also I just noticed you changed your global account display name to the volunteer thing [21:04:42] I though you changed your nickname [21:04:50] got confused when i saw it in dms as well [21:06:30] [1/3] But the danes count in 20's so they Count 3 times 20 = 60 [21:06:31] [2/3] But 50 is 2,5 x 20 [21:06:31] [3/3] So Halvtress is 2 times 20 + half 20 (is 10) [21:06:39] Half 50 [21:07:17] [1/2] 57 [21:07:17] [2/2] 2,5*20+7 [21:07:25] I’m sorry what is this ARG of a language [21:07:38] Same as the French [21:07:46] Also use that 20 system [21:08:43] https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Danish_numerals#:~:text=Numbers%20from%200%20to%2020,is%20enogtredive%2C%20not%20*etogtredive. [21:09:47] 20 (also known in English as the score) [21:10:04] Really? [21:10:05] huh [21:10:19] They too use that 20 system [21:10:59] 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90 are "a number times 20", like the French numerals from 80 through 99. This is called the vigesimal system [21:11:53] For example, 60 is tresindstyve (literally tre-sinds-tyve, "three times 20"). 50 is halvtreds, short for halvtredje-sinds-tyve, "half third times twenty", implying two score plus half of the third score. For example, 75 is femoghalvfjerds, "five-and-half-fourth(-times-twenty)". [21:12:52] It took me ages to get that in my system 😄 [21:13:09] And it get's stranger [21:14:03] [1/3] Halvfems is 90 Half Fems [21:14:03] [2/3] So you'd think Hundred is Fems [21:14:04] [3/3] But no, that is Ethundrede. One Hundred. [21:14:22] Oh god [21:14:54] In the old days, Fems was 100. but to be more international I guess, or the influence of the Germans, we now use hundrede. [21:15:24] And our old banknotes had Femti on it. Not 100, but 50 😄 [21:16:19] 70 = 60+10, 80 = 4\20, 90 = 4\20+10... So very fun. [21:17:12] They really just ran out of inspiration at the end because the earlier tens don't work this way lol. [21:18:53] [1/3] Thing is. In Norwegian and Swedish, they count just like in English. [21:18:54] [2/3] But in Danish we had to be different. [21:18:54] [3/3] 57 is 220+ a .520+7 [21:19:43] [1/2] But we say Syv og halvtreds [21:19:44] [2/2] 7 and a half 50 [21:20:20] 7+ 2x20+ a half 20 [21:35:53] Yeah Danish numbers are weird, even born and raises 100% in Denmark, and 36 years old... I still finds Danish numbers odd
