Why doesn't Wikipedia have a voice synthesizer for word pronunciation since almost nobody knows how to read IPA?

cosmotron 0 points1 point 21 days ago[-]

I do admit that augmenting the IPA key with audio would be nice all over Wikipedia, but I think the title text is a good alternative (e.g. situations where you might not have speakers).

But, that's just my opinion, haha. It certainly saves a lot of time by not having to look up symbols in those ridiculous tables. =]

I just found out today that some articles are making better use of the IPA link, giving each symbol a title text that has a common example of how that symbol should sound.

Is it possible to have fun in college without drinking? Any "success" stories?

cosmotron 1 point2 points 22 days ago[-]

It definitely is possible, you just need to find friends that, mostly, share your view (i.e. not needing to drink to have fun).

Do things like pull pranks, explore, watch movies, drive around town and harass people... basically just goof off. Just, stick to legal things, haha.

does anyone know how to clean laptop keyboards?

cosmotron 1 point2 points 26 days ago[-]

This isn't always the case... I know several people (myself included) who broke a key while attempting to clean some old IBM Thinkpads.

The key faceplate had two little plastic teeth that would hold onto the switches and if either broke, you were out of luck, haha. Just flimsy design, things have probably improved though.

O Funny People of Reddit, what are some of your best one-liner moments?

It's a play on the phrase "beware of Greeks bearing gifts" (Trojan horse).

Perhaps if you said, "my answer to every question you ask will be "no", so don't even bother asking me", it would go better. =P
