What makes you say that? He is clearly promising a lot of things to happen, and he’s confirmed he would be a dictator “the first day”.
I know politicians bullshit a lot, but I am not so sure he doesn’t intend to follow through on at least some of the very outlandish shit he’s promised so far.
That’s exciting - I’ll be keeping a close eye on this as it’s likely what will make me switch to Linux for gaming in the near future.
True, but Göteborg has its own areas to avoid. Hjällbo comes to mind…
Thanks! Sounds like decent progress hady been made in this area already. I’ll keep an eye on this project so that when 24H2 drops I’ve got a way to avoid turning my headset into e-waste.
That sounds pretty promising. I know the headset camera-based controller tracking will be a pain to implement, but at least there’s some hope for people that plonked down 600+ bucks for these devices. Some, like me, just a month ahead of the eol announcement…
High pay means nothing when the cost of living is even higher. Making 20 bucks an hour sounds great until you have to pay 3000 bucks in rent each month.
That’s an astute observation and you’re probably right. Doesn’t rule out someone f’ing up IRL but it makes the whole thing less believable for sure.
This looks like an average road in the Netherlands. The only thing that seems odd is the lack of a bike lane, but otherwise this is pretty mundane over there.
I can’t understand why so many people are against someone dying with dignity. This is a form of harm reduction for not just the patient, but also their loved ones, and society in general.
Nobody wants to see their loved ones suffer endlessly or needlessly, and this is also a whole lot less traumatic than people committing suicide. Nobody wants the last memory of their loved ones to be the scene of their (potentially messy) suicide.
And that’s not to mention the trauma inflicted on bystanders for some of the more public suicide methods (not to mention that jumping to your death or intentionally walking into/driving into traffic has a decent chance of physically injuring or killing said bystanders).
If this process is undertaken with care and compassion, it’s far less likely to be traumatizing to all involved. And it prevents “spur of the moment” decisions, like many successful suicides are.
I love how all Germanic languages can pull that stunt. Be it German, Swedish, Dutch, they all have this magic “turn a sentence into a single word” ability.
I know it’s a joke, but with the level of scrutiny Germany has attracted for its dark history there’s litle chance people wouldn’t have heard of it by now ;-)
You’d be surprised how many people don’t know the difference between being sore and having pain, but I digress. I never wanted to discuss semantics, just make a jokey comment about trading pain for discomfort. Forget I mentioned it.
I think there’s a non-zero percentage of people that confuse being sore with having unexplained pain. And there’s probably also another group of people that think they can excercise without being sore, given how lots of people exercise tout it as fixing all pain, which might set incorrect expectations.
Anyway, I am just sharing my own experiences.
To be fair though, the soreness from regular exercise is what you get in the tradeoff. I have both a regular cardio and strength program I run through every week (5 days of exercise) and a pretty active lifestyle (2 days of outdoor activities every week (hiking, mountainbiking, splitboarding,etc)) and I am generally sore at least somewhere in my body.
I haven’t seen it mentioned, so let me say: Outerwear. Especially if you are into snow sports, the difference between quality outerwear and cheap garbage is not just getting wet sooner. It could very well save your life if you’re wearing something that will keep you dry while maintaining breathability. And nothing beats lifetime no questions asked warranty where you just hand it in and it gets repaired for you. In the long term this saves a decent penny whil also reducing your environmental impact
Same goes for base and mid layers. Cotton will kill you, and lots of cheap synthetics don’t breathe well. Spend money or higher end synthetics or merino.
Lastly, don’t get cheap goggles from Amazon or eBay. Heck, don’t get the cheapest models from even more reputable brands. You will want your goggle lenses to provide good UVA and UVB protection, while also providing contrast enhancing features like polarization and very importantly: fog resistance. You will not have a good time if you can’t see where you’re going. I can’t stress enough how big of a difference visibility makes for your enjoyment and safety.
The difference between my Zojirushi and the Black and Decker we had prior is indescribable. My home made bread suddenly wasn’t dry from the middle down and would last without losing freshness for a whole day extra. With the same ingredients. It’s absolutely worth it to buy a quality bread maker.
UAE is cheating since they outsourced it to the Netherlands to do their sea reclaiming for them.
Morrowind memes in the wild. What a time to be alive!
I need to re-read the lyrics to that song, it’s one of my favorites by APC.
This is one of the few sequels I’m genuinely excited for. Constantine was such a good movie.
