The feels like temp at these temps should be above the actual temp as soon as there’s a brisk wind tbh.

- Comment on What your coffee preparation method says about you 6 days ago:
There’s no pot involved here, you put it in the mug, but ideally you also use a super fine grind so it stays in the mug usually
“everyone else is drinking weak coffee, I make the real stuff” kinda like Terry was certain that his ways were best even though alternatives already existed.
Oh fair enough
To be fair I didn’t mean to insinuate that it’s manlier to drink literal mud, it’s just how my mom always made it for herself when I was a kid and I just… learned to like it. It’s very much an acquired taste.
- Comment on What your coffee preparation method says about you 6 days ago:
It’s moderately common in my country where coffee is often consumed for the caffeine content and not the taste. We call it the “thief’s coffee” because it’s minimal prep to get your fix quickly, almost as if you were committing a burglary lol

Formerly Gentoo, now TumbleWeed user. But this chart doesn’t align
I put the ground coffee (a lot of it) in the mug and pour hot water. Stir it a bit later, then the grounds stay put in the bottom usually. I’ve been told I drink asphalt, but then I just feel like everyone drinks very weak coffee. I do this because I want it to be a quick process, I don’t want to buy a fancy machine that requires maintenace, and I want my coffee to have a proper kick.
What distro does this mean?

I think it depends on how you hold it.

Ah, I see you looked it up in the dictionary

It’s also not short for chili con carne y tomates, so best not put any tomato in there either, eh?

Unused code is stripped out by the compiler, but will your homemade library properly use all the fancy instruction set extensions for matrices? IIRC it’s not as simple as just compiling for the correct microarch. But I could be wrong.

I think it means not round of ammo but round as in a unit of time during which you can shoot. Sounds more reasonable, no?

I’d prefer she didn’t come with my car anyway. Wife would have questions and honestly she doesn’t seem all that interesting.
Donald Duck however? Yes please

It has Antonio Banderas in it, how could it not be good?
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 1 week ago:
Fun fact: the character of Van Wilder is based on the comedian Bert Kreischer who also went to college for way too many years. You might know him for accidentally joining the Russian mafia
- Comment on To appease a Steam user's demands for straight representation, Webfishing added a 'Straight' title that costs 9,999 fish bucks 1 week ago:
Yeah I’d much rather take that over any sexuality. It’s a much deeper insight into my personality than just “straight”.

His official title is commander-in-chief. The generals answer to him AFAIK.

I reckon that in all likelihood the Project 2025 folks will piss him off at some point and he’ll just throw a tantrum and refuse to work with them. Doesn’t mean he’ll suddenly turn into a leftist, but if he doesn’t play ball, they’ll have trouble getting anything passed.

- Comment on Houses in my area increases 82% in just 4 years 2 weeks ago:
Not to devalue your point, but if you truly were spending (10 + 3*75 + 20)*30 + 150 per month (so a total of 7800 USD) and you invest it in an index fund getting back 5%, you’ll have your million in 10 years. 8 years at 10% which is the long-term growth rate of DJIA and S&P 500.
You’ll still never be the richest person in the world, but if you truly were burning away that much money, you could make decent dough just from investing it passively. In 30 years you’d have like 15 million, more than enough to retire.

Great source of protein though. Just need to be more careful and creative
- Comment on Most of the trick-or-treaters have been skipping my house, and I finally figured out why 3 weeks ago:
I got a knock last night. I had to apologize and say there’s no candy - I don’t live in the US. We have our own similar traditions on St. Martin’s day and St. Catherine’s day. The article for the latter even describes it: Wiki, though for either day you can click on the Estonian Wikipedia article to get a more complete description.
I suppose in the coming years I’ll have to start stocking candy for Halloween too because I don’t really want to disappoint a bunch of kids. Though to be fair, I don’t think they did much trick or treating anyway, they mostly just opened their bag and asked for candy - so it felt kinda lazy. When I was a kid, I remember groups of kids would come knock on our door for either Mardipäev or Kadripäev and they’d usually have something like a song or dance prepared, or at least told us riddles.

- Comment on Tom Holland to Star in Christopher Nolan’s Latest Film 4 weeks ago:
Good for him. There’s so much Marvel shit out there, the upcoming ones probably won’t be very memorable even if they’ll earn him a good amount of money. Nolan might at least make something awesome.
- Comment on Printer ink solution? 5 weeks ago:
It’s funny because even the salesmen have said “Oh you have to print occasionally just to make sure it doesn’t dry and clog up” and yet our cheap-ass inkjets from well-hated companies have never given any such issues, even when they’ve been unused for years at a time. Over the span of 2 decades there’s been 2 of them. Canon and then later HP.
Would I buy another one? Probably not. Would rather get a Brother laser these days if there’s ever need for a printer again. But I’m hoping that there won’t be.
