  The Finnish suffix “-kainen” is used to create nouns that refer to things or beings associated with a particular quality or characteristic. Even though we don’t necessarily mentally associate it with a similar meaning as “-mainen”, it still is. Hence the translation of “bearlike” is close enough.

  Fun fact, those are called “karhukainen” in Finnish. A direct (but loose) translation would be “bearly”, “bearlike” or something else bear related.

  Do they use backed up photos to train Gemini? Could be they do and hence need all the user photos they can get their hands on.

  Maybe it was a knittycat? This post raises a lot of questions.

  I don’t get it. How did the cat know how to open the door?

  That new game (which I can’t remember the name of) looked so bad in the Gamescom opening show. Very gringe.

  I have no doubt about the fact that it was legit stuff. The beans were bought from a reputable vendor and brewed at a reputable cafeteria. It was different for sure, but nothing that would swoon you.

  The whole thing is based on the speciality of the way the beans are produced. They sell an image of excellence and rarity, but in the end it’s just coffee.

  I have tasted it. Not the shit, mind you, but the coffee brewed from the beans. It was coffee. Nothing special. Not even a bit nutty.

  People need to realize that they need to change their own behavior for things to change. It’s not always someone elses fault. It can be, but it’s not always.

  I have that! Sneezed twice today because of bright sunlight. It can sometimes also be triggered voluntarily by looking at a bright light. You can’t trigger it multiple times in a row though. I suspect this is because sinuses need to recover from the shock of the sneeze.
