Every Mark Rober video is now an ad. They’re also loud and obnoxious, so I’ve stopped watching them.

I’ve actually never watched a Mr Beast video. They never came up in my feed.

I currently drive a BMW i3 (BEV). Best car I’ve ever owned.

Why?

I bought an Aeropress a few years ago and absolutely love it. Then I realised that my cheap grinder wasn’t all that great, so I bougt a $400 grinder. My quality of life is at its peak right now.

Christmas is largely a pagan tradition that was turned into a christian tradition to make it easier to convert them to christianity.

The christmas tree is not a christian tradition. Santa is not a christian tradition. Nothing really is, except for Jesus allegedly being born on the exact date when the pagans celebrated “Jolablot” or the midwinter fest.

It makes more economic sense to improve the rails we already have, and build faster trains to run on the existing rails (like the TGV), than building completely new infrastructure.

GoGo Penguin is a jazzy trio from the UK that makes midern jazz that is really engaging. I’m really a progmetalhead, but this band is ficking epic.

Bersarin Quartett is another band that I love. It’s is a bit tough to get into, but it’s really rewarding if you like slowish dreamy complex music. All song titles are in German, but luckily there’s no lyrics.

I’m 42, and can drive manual, but I’ve had an automatic the last 5 years.

My son is now learning to drive, but he will most likely not need to drive a manual ever.

I have played this game more than I’d like to admit. It was difficult, but not impossible. Just an awesome game, and quite good for its time

It’s an art not to be judgmental. I always try to see beyond the reception, and give people the benefit of doubt. My reasoning is that most people inherently wants to do good, but sometimes makes mistakes or misjudge the situation. .

I used to work in a store selling electronics - like Best Buy (but a foreign distant cousin). It amazed me that so many people were technically challenged.

I always had to assume that the individual I was helping was an idiot, because I had been dumbfounded way to many times.

The reason for this could be that people who are smart enough to write something comprehensible is most likely not going to do so because of the risk of getting comments from brain dumping people. Social media has given everyone a megaphone - even the dumbest individuals. They keep pouring their stupidity onto the internet for everyone to see.

Damn, that’s depressing. But considering the pandas sense of self preservation, it makes total sense.

You must be fun at parties 😄

Did you know that arachnids’ legs are hydraulicly controlled? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arachnid_locomotion

And your pets are most likely to die before you do.

Yeah, well, I have to disagree with you on this one.

A few years after I met my wife, we had to sell her apartment so we could move to another city together for jobs. We tried to be cheap and sell the place ourselves to save money. We teamed up with a lawyer that specialised on selling real estates privately. We had a few viewings, but people were hesitant to bidding. We got a lot of questions about why we didn’t use an agent.

After a few weeks, we contacted a real estate agent, and sold the place after just one viewing for a better price even after paying the agent fee.

I think it is important to leave the job to professionals when selling thing with high risk and high value.

Not sure if this means good or great.

The whole issue here is that people fall for the trick of buying the cheapest printer available, that is clearly way cheaper than what it costs to build. Then people get cranky for having to buy these proprietary cartridges which are way overpriced to cover the cost of the printer.

The easiest solution is to buy a laser printer (unless you need photo finish on your prints). It’s a higher initial cost, but it never dries out. Would it cost me more that an ink printer in the long run? Maybe, but with my infrequent printing, i wouldn’t have to replace dried out cartridges every year.

y’all need to stop buying ink printers from HP
