Le premier usage de "girlcott" c'est 1891.
ça fait donc 130 ans que ce jeu de mot existe.
C'est plus ancien que les jeux de mots dans les noms des salons de coiffure.
Ou que le droit de vote des femmes dans la plupart des pays.
POV : Un festival a été annulé suite à une mobilisation féministe notamment parce qu'une employée avait été virée après avoir révélé avoir été victime de viol.

Pour Sophia Aram, le sujet n'est pas ça, mais que les féministes voudraient "dégenrer la langue".

I had never thought of it, but it actually makes sense.
The point of creation isn't just the final result, but the whole process as well.
You grow as you grow your story. You share time with your characters. And time is exactly what gen-AI promises to reduce, completely missing the point.
I think a lot of translators are the same way, especially over the titles we hold closest to our hearts.

Translation requires a high degree of writing skill to make lines punch when we want them to punch, to weave when we want them to weave, and more.

Your response matters.

I guarantee you there is a whole department of people at Prime Video who is quietly celebrating today.

Keep up the good fight, everyone.

*** Looking for a translator ***

The developers of Atuel are seeking a translator to localize the game into Korean.

The game has approximately 1,400 English words. If anyone is interested or knows someone who might be able to handle it, please let @pfquarta.bsky.social know!

Ce mec a actuellement parmi ses députés Frédéric Boccaletti, négationniste, antisémite, qui a fait de la prison pour avoir tiré à l'arme à feu sur des gens qu'il a traités de "sales nègres."

Mais attention, il prend un œuf, c'est la "brutalisation de la vie politique " 🤡

Article dans @ledevoir.com en 1977, peu de temps après la publication de la deuxième édition du Petit Robert:

"Il faut affronter le RN par les idées sur le terrain démocratique"

Le terrain démocratique: des chaînes télé de milliardaires qui dégueulent la propagande RN toute la journée, une presse de milliardaires qui fait pareil, des éditeurs milliardaires qui vendent les livres du RN dans LEURS kiosques.

On le lit partout, le gaulois ne s’écrit pas. La société gauloise est régulièrement présentée comme une société qui vit à l’écart de l’écrit, parfois en l’expliquant par un choix conscient des Gaulois de ne pas recourir à l’écrit, choix assez largement romantisé par certains auteurs.

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.

tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

🧵⬇️
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Among Native Americans and First Nations peoples, the planting combination of corn, squash, and beans is known as "Three Sisters."

In Central America and Mexico, the practice is known as milpa, and it dates back thousands of years. 🧵⬇️

Looking at the full credit list (www.mobygames.com/game/245425/...), most of the people in the Contractors category are not even credited under "real" role names, simply "Contractor", "Embark Team" or "Special Thanks".

No mention of voice acting or localization either.
