I'll check out your suggestions. I'm not sure you explained why cheap and easy are logically conflicting, though.

I've a semi-related question. What's your workflow for matching torrented videos with subtitles that have been provided in the same torrent? Often the directory structure is Some.video.mkv Subtitles/Some.video/

I'd like to know more about UK accents. From what I hear, during colonization of North America, UK spoke similarly to how US speaks now, but since then US accents stayed somewhat the same, while UK accents drifted a lot. Apparently, at

Interesting. How would a meteorite pick something up in one planet to carry it to another planet? I'm presuming that the hypothetical meteorite does not originate in Mars.

It's not binary. If it weren't for the popular protests in Belarus, Belarus would have probably joined Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Belarus revolution didn't happen (yet), but its men are not dying in Ukraine. Also, thi

What are you saying? Are you asking if the benefits of the human race outweigh the costs? Or of hydroelectricity? If it's the latter, I think OP clearly said that in his opinion hydro is a "no-brainer" in a minority of cases.

Another aspect to this is that the far-away collegues might be fewer, so they adapt to the majority.

Sounds like you're projecting something on not being a parent. Try the "what for" game. What do I want kids for? To extend my legacy. What do I want to extend my legacy for? To feel connected to the world. What do I want to f

I know you were talking about conventional warfare, but unless your apocalypse-causing list includes inflation upfront, it's not complete.

Goal of the sabotage is to keep Europe in the war. If opening up the gas pipeline were an option, Germany would be tempted to do it, once the heating season starts.

It's not a monopoly, you're right. I misspoke. It's a walled garden, because you can't use their various services on their own or with third-party services. The games themselves are just rented to you, you can't run

I've started running and an unexpected challenge is boredom. The running is challenging as is, but doing it for ~1h30m has been, for me, well, tedious. I guess that's a byproduct of always being within arm's reach of a phone.

An angle to this is that even if you're gonna pay the fine in the end, there's a huge incentive to delay that, due to inflation. As long as your legal fees are lower than fine currency's inflation, you're better off dela
