Very much so! There’s this other person who uses the same name online and whenever I sign up for a new service there’s a chance he’s been there first and I have to resort to an alternative. In my head we have a friendly feud about this but I’m not sure he’s noticed yet

And just like others mentioned, it’s very much become synonymous with my own identity, friends refer to me with it and at times I identify more with the nick than my actual name

One really has to be deep into antisemitism to think that’s a relevant point to make in a discussion on how the word Jew is defined in Spain.

The scientific method, we’ll be able to extract most information of the world around with just that and time

/d/, of course! I tried getting the formatting down a couple of weeks back but gave up so thanks!

How do I do that?

To the point, ideology is, to a degree, a modern equivalent of religion. It provides a framework to view history and the future, dos and don’t, utopia to strive for, often comes with own set of (almost)religious practices and idolization. It even requires a degree of faith in utopia being achievable. I don’t think it’s that outrageous of a statement.

My thoughts immediately went to boy bands but then again, K-pop is probably the modern equivalent so you’re probably right?

I lost my home to a fire a couple of years back, would’t recommend only paper copies of 2FA codes. Recovery was a lengthy process.

Not sure if this is a universal concept but most larger cities around here have ‘language cafes’, both for learning the native tongue and for practicing a new language

How you feel about the furthest of the three?

I find myself park mine close to buildings when picking up takeaway and similar if there’s no nearby bollards or racks nearby, but at the same time I feel like I’m probably impeding in some way for blind, wheelchairs etc.

And Americans voted Trump.

I’m not trying to whataboutism here, my point is that even an actual democracy people are fooled by the (political)elite. We can’t blame the Russian people for living in a dictatorship and for (foolishly) trusting / listening to their media, I think. Still open to be convinced otherwise.

They’ve taken the role of trying to mediate between the countries instead of actively taking Ukraines side, I can’t argue for whether that’s good or not though, I honestly have no idea how Turkeys energy should best be spent. But they can hardly be considered one of the most important allies while also abstaining from imposing sanctions on Russia. No matter how many drones Turkey sold to Ukraine

Why ‘Ricing’? I tried searching but could only find explanations of the word related to cars

💡 It’s Shill , not Chill.

Same link, posted less than 24 hours before this post 🤦‍♀️

She’s charged basically for not leaving a the premises when told by police, she’ll likely receive a fine.

She’ll be alright and will get a chance to argue in court, a new platform one might even argue. I don’t think this is anything to get rallied up or worried about, civil disobedience works sometimes

I’ve been on Trakt.tv for a couple of years and nothing but happy. Love the scrobbler for Plex, very useful calendar. Has both recommendations based on what you’ve watched and trending to see what everyone is watching

A bit pricey

For anyone still wanting to use Audible, you can download the files when visiting the site in a browser and I was able to add the books to Apple Books without removing the DRM. Last time I removed DRM to share it with a friend I used AAX Audio Converter

Still, buying from a store without DRM is probably a better choice in the end.

I’m pretty sure this picture is taken from outside the viewport judging form the vignetting around the photo

I don’t mean to dismiss you but I think a more relevant statistic would be for people in game development since it’s mostly creators, not consumers on scene.

With that said, I don’t think the ratio will be that different for developers and gamers, so maybe this was a pointless comment :D
