  I think I have been subconsciously trying to improve my gut biome as an adult…

  I get your point but there have been many cases of terrorism that was done by someone that already lived (usually legally) in a coutry. Like those assholes that steal a car or truck and just drive it into a busy street. Unfortunately intelligence agencies are a necessary evil.

  In my case it was actually the port, well not really the port, but a lot of pocket dust had gotten into the port. I spend some time with a toothpick to clean everything out and it was fixed. When you think you got it all there is probably more.

  It’s a different version of the tolerance paradox

  The paradox of tolerance is a philosophical concept suggesting that if a society extends tolerance to those who are intolerant, it risks enabling the eventual dominance of intolerance; thereby undermining the very principle of tolerance. (Source Wikipedia)

  Physical media yes, CDs or DVDs no. Most discs I burned are probably unreadable by now. I remember my favorite artist explaining how he probably had to stop making music because it just wasn’t financially viable. So I decided to buy all his albums (I had all the albums in mp3 format for years). Its about 10 years later, all the CDs are lost or destroyed (most in my car). I still have a NAS with the original mp3s I downloaded 20 years ago.

  I bought bee flower seeds, its a pretty large container (think half a Pringles can). I just sprinkle them around in my neighborhood. 😁. Can’t wait for the day weird flowers are starting to popup everywhere.

  It was fun the first 3 times, but now it’s starting to hurt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Based on a true story⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I just checked in NL when I search for cars 2010 or later and max 60K KM (50 isn’t an option on the site I used). I can find multiple small cars starting at 3000 euros. I selected a price range at 10K euros max and found almost 3000 cars, there are definitely decent options for way less than 20-30K

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Based on a true story⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You save up and get a second hand car you can afford. Why buy a new one, even a car with 30K miles or 50K KMs is a lot cheaper, while its still new enough to drive for a while without major repairs.

  This is a tip for people that don’t drive automatic transmission, if you ever try it, put it in R and really floor it. The R stands for racing mode!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon's previous VP of Prime Gaming said they "tried everything" to disrupt Steam⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For me it’s the reason I started playing games again. Have been using Linux forever, didn’t wanted a dual boot etc. So when games started to work on Linux I stared to buy and play more and more.

  Although recently it has mostly been openRTC without steam.

  If I was driving the bus I would just brake a little too late when arriving at that stop.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Doordash deserves it's fate⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m very happy I live in a country where all consumer prices must include taxes. It’s so much better knowing what the real price is when you buy something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon lives with their parents⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Where do you live to be able to buy a house in cash after 3 years of working? Where I live the average appartment is about 400K euros and the average house is closer to 500K euros.

  Maybe you can find something for 250K if you really buy something small that needs lots of work. But you still need over 80K a year excluding taxes, probably closer to 120K before taxes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I think an intern helps them tie their shoes too⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I work in software development, I understand website, webservices and the backend it all runs on at a pretty deep level.

  But I never owned an Apple device. So whenever my wife (iMac user) has a problem and I try to help, I struggle with all the basic shit. I don’t know the interface, don’t know the menu structure, don’t have muscle memory for basic key bindings (like copy paste).

  Same with my parents, a few years ago my dad gave my mom his old iphone, didn’t do any factory reset etc. She used logged out his apple id and logged in hers. But the apps he installed refused to update, very little information from the device about the problem. They don’t know you shouldn’t do this and just give me the phone and say apps don’t update. It took me a while to figure out what the hell was even going on.

  Sometimes it’s true, like a penismodel

  This is why most modern lids use a soft close system.
