Kurzgesagt videos translation spreadsheet (docs.google.com)
 

You know, Kurzgesagt is not only an English channel, but it also provide video translated in multiple other languages on others translated Kurzgesagt channels.

I was looking for something to help me find Kurzgesagt video in other languages, and found this spreadsheet. I don't know if there is a more official website or tool for that, but this is the only thing I found. I thought it may be interesting for you too

It isn't fully complete though, for example the "Portugese" column is almost empty, and recent videos are not present. But it's open to edition, so we can participate to keep it up to date

If you have a more official list, I'll be interested (and I'll edit this post to prefer sharing the official list). For now I'll be using this spreadsheet as it's mostly filled and as I didn't find anything else

What you are according to you fav language in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev

xkcd #2820: Inspiration (lemmy.ca)
 

Title text: An apple fell on Isaac Newton's head and gave him the idea that the moon might be a tasty apple, though this turned out not to be true--the Apollo program eventually determined that it was just a desolate and bland Red Delicious.

Transcript

[Cueball sits under a tree. An apple falls from the tree and hits him on the head.]

Bonk

[The view zooms out, showing the moon, which Cueball looks up at.]

[Closeup on Cueball.]

Cueball: ...
Cueball: We should grow apples on the moon.

Title text: In the LotR map, up and down correspond LOOSELY to northwest and southeast respectively.

Transcript too long for lemmy, check Explain xkcd wiki to get one ;)

These charts show movie character interactions. The horizontal axis is time. The vertical grouping of the lines indicate which characters are together at a given time.
