Regarding having your own custom domain for all emails. I have one with my name which I use for professional communication but I'd like the rest, like mails from Lemmy, to go to an address which can't be identified with me. Is it better trusting a domain name registrar and WHOIS to not give out info than e.g. Mailbox.org? Like yeah, sure, I could register another custom domain but this is what I'm worried about.

Yeah kinda just leaning towards them in the end now after much back and forth. I also get 6 months free.

Mailfence looks super interesting, but yeah, a bit more expensive. I'll definitely look into it.

Hmm I mentioned them in my post as I've been apprehensive about them, maybe it's unfounded though..

As I wrote in my post, I already have a custom domain but I want to use both my domain and theirs.

No support for custom domains.

Thanks, but apparently Infomaniak has some privacy-related issues.

Unfortunately no support for using their own domain as an alias. I want to use both my custom domain and their own.

How does Netflix, HBO and other services get their subtitles? Are they now using AI to help translate? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

And are translations always done based on the native language or do they translate from e.g. the English subtitle to another language? Asking because this definitely feels like something they would skimp out on if they could.

How many hours of deep work/deep focus a day is doable and sustainable? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

I'm constantly feeling guilty about "not doing enough" when it comes to my hobby of learning Chinese. I have been averaging around 3-4hrs every day (I often do 25-minute pomodoro sessions to ensure full focus) for these last 6 months, balancing it with a full-time job, working out and trying to be social. I have no co-dependents and my job is sometimes quite chill which makes this doable. Either way, I still feel guilty of not being able to "obsess" over it every day by studying 8hrs as, apparently, some internet people claim they do. Even while balancing it with other stuff. Or you know, just looking at students studying engineering/law/medical school and also saying they spend 8-10hrs a day studying. Like, I didn't even spend a fraction of this time studying by myself when I went to uni.

In the end, how many hours of deep focus a day is reasonable? Are the people saying they study 8hrs a day just lying? Or is a lot of unproductive time counted into these 8hrs? Like yes, they sit for 8hrs, but every 10 minute they check their phone for 10 minutes and then resume studying?

What's the best tip you have for improving your Chinese studying? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

I think mine is just, consistency. To just do something every day, and not a lot a few times a week.

Weekend 'what are you watching / reading / playing / listening to?' thread #7 (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

As with previous threads, the idea behind this is to have a - not quite - weekly post where learners of all levels, heritage and native speakers can post the Chinese content they have been consuming this week in whatever form. If people also give an indication of their level (or the level of content) as well it can act as a way for people to discover new content which may be suitable for them.

I'm currently going through SinoLinguas graded readers available on Pleco, the ones at around 2500 words!
