As a westerner I got pretty used to doing this while I lived in Korea. It's really pretty comfortable once you build up the muscles. I really wish that it was doable in skiboots :/

Junklets as a means to convert a large amount of Yuan to USD just begs the question: How do Junklets convert the large amount of Yuan they pull to the USD they give as credit to their big spenders?

typical triangulation would depend on the sound being heterogeneous in waveform/volume right? If it's a constant hum then you'd only have volume dissipate as you move away which would get a lot harder as sound has different l

If the FDA approves it for sale I'll likely be one of the early adopters. I'd love to see meat that is better for the environment and does away with the ethical concerns of pig, chicken and cow farms.

Similarly: wear your seatbelt. Almost every single car ride I have been on didn't need it, but you don't know you needed it till it's too late.

I am a native English speaker and at different times could get by (albeit with plenty of confusion on both sides) in korean and spanish. I thought the phonemes for spanish and korean were really quite similar, I even kept on mixing the two.

I've been leaning heavier on a plant based diet and generally eating lower on the food chain. For me the main advantages are environmental and ethical, both of which should be had with lab meat.

I'm guessing this was their address: https://etherscan.io/txs?a=0x931d387731bbbc988b312206c74f77d... It was a very small ICO, something close to 2 ETH.
