Discord's terrible updater fix!
Hi, I have found a helpful video today. Discord
is one of the most popular chat apps. However it’s updater on Linux
actually causes more trouble than solving things. For everyone experiencing this problem I highly recommend to watch this video. Happy chatting!

Polish
is a language from another world. However in this case it’s way simpler. Linux
is just … Linux
. If we have a
letter we speak a
and not ey
or anything else.
That’s said there is no x
letter in Polish
, so we spoke it using Polish
letters instead. iks
when speaking x
separately and just ks
in any other case, so taxi
is simply spoken as taksi
or taksówka
as a Polish
word with a taxi
origin.
I always have trouble speaking for example API
, because I’m automatically speak it in Polish
way instead of ey-pi-ay
as it’s terribly not-intuitive for us to speak each character separately (there are of course similar cases in slang, but it was much more popular when SMS messages were expensive and people were forced to “shorten” their texts).
I heard that most people have problems with inflecting (?) words in Polish
language (like plural version). For example I heard story about one tourist who said that Poles really likes dogs, because there are even signs to be aware of them crossing the street. The problem of it is that he made a mistake in pluralization.
-
pies
(dog - singular) →psy
(plural version - similar change likemouse
→mice
) -
pieszy
(pedestrian - singular) →piesi
(plural version - similar change likey
→ies
)
So a sign with text Uwaga piesi
does not mean Beaware dogs
, but Beaware pedestrians
. Well … I’m not surprised that people call it the world’s hardest language.

Much appreciated, the Discord update notifier is very annoying, especially on a rolling distro.
