Also, there is a meme video about those parrot species, a male parrot mistakes a zoologist to be a female parrot, and attempts intercourse with him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9T1vfsHYiKY The shaking parrot head emote

I also think people should be able to voice their opinions, even if they are very opposed to my personal beliefs. There is a need for that, to evade corporate or state sponsored censorship.

I wonder, what is stopping people from buying a x64 PC with a good CPU, slapping multiple ethernet cards over pcie (which support amazing speeds, good enough for 10G) and installing openwrt/pfsense on it? This is something I really wan

I mean, I had a company asking me to send pictures of my passport and my residence permit by email in the first interview for a remote role. They acted very surprised when I flat out said "No, you can have them when you approach me wit

I am pointing out the warped process of hiring within our industry, I am not justifying anything here. People are doing this, because probably, they think it does work. They probably passed some interviews like this before and landed on the

But, the thing is, the companies are putting down very sophisticated hiring methods that are not relevant to the job itself at all (e.g. hiring someone that can write quicksort in 30 minutes). I presume, after passing the gatekeepers, most

I am not sure why this was down voted, as sexism work both ways. Asking a woman to review a man's content is the same thing as asking a man to review a woman's content, and most people would not be fine with the second.

Land is expensive. I am actually surprised why the companies don't lease home solar panel kits, e.g. you sign up and they install at minimal cost, and you pay for the electricity generated by the solar panels, but at a reduced rate com

The box had already stickers that prove the cargo is fragile, even before putting TV images on the boxes. It is just that the handlers do not care at all if the cargo is fragile or not, but they probably receive quite a lot of heat for impr

Not killing spiders is actually a great thing, as if they are able to survive inside your house, that mean they have enough food to survive. Given the fact that they mostly eat bugs, mosquitos and other insects, they are quite beneficial in

To be fair, nothing can compete with rail on land, but replacing trucks might be a nice idea, especially for international hauls, as there would be no extensive border and customs check in every country on the way.

If there is no backend, and also if you are not collecting any personal data, maybe you can add a “privacy friendly, your personal data is not collected” marketing section as well. Although I am not sure if your users would care about that.

I think that they do not mind spending 50k or 100k, they just want to secure the possibility of sale going through. They probably do know that the legal fees alone would cost them more, they just want the domain.
