"cars, having houses which are usually > 200 m2, come with swimming pools, have large gardens" It's a sunny country with a tendency to be outdoors, a lot of space, limited public transport, and a colonial history (another

The last team I worked on had 2 Englishmen, 5 Indians, 2 Pakistanis, a Frenchman, a Portuguese, a Greek, an Australian, and a Kazakh. It was chaos. No one understood each other, and so heated arguments were the norm. This was not higher

Is that hotlinking? Is the podcast community fine with that?

I think you're on the right track, but "dicks" might be a little vague. Presumably some sort of delusion that they are special for possessing something so rare. As if they've accomplished something.

That doesn't sound good to me. I've never used cases for my devices, dropped them all, only ever had one death - the nexus 7 on first drop. My opinion of them since is that they're cheap tat. That was no laboratory study,

"When will Earth die? A million years? A billion years?" Did the words "tomorrow", "next week", "next year" not suit your argument? It's wilderness from the centre of the Earth all the way out

I'm guessing you got voted down because people don't want to eat bread baked the previous evening. Of course, I don't know because there are no frikkin' comments from the trigger happy. Even if they don't like you

Socialising success. "I'll take some of that, thanks." I've been meaning to give it some proper thought for ages. People celebrating when a sports team wins, as if their own accomplishment. That aside, congrats to IS
