As a former alcoholic, ethanol is the worst garbage there is. You might as well hit your toes/whatever with a hammer - there's the pain, the near instant release of morphine and the (very long) hangover :D It is in our nature to d

No, it doesn't, I meant they'll either actually try to help or give you paracetamol/ibuprofen and maybe tell you to come back in 2 months

Looking at bigger/higher res monitors getting worse "ratings" over here (obviously they use more power lol), yeah these labels are dumb as hell.

On the bright side, there's more opportunity and mobility in the UK. Just have to get off your ass and hustle. But that's something most people don't use or even like. A stable job and better safety nets are preferred, and he

Belgium's system works way better than the Netherlands (or Germany's, both are very similar) btw. It's pretty good.

I'll just say that it's still better than the German system. Same ridiculous waiting times for a 50/50 chance to just get a paracetamol prescription. Private is expensive as hell, nonexistent or not usable. Mental healthcare?

I hear it's still possible, through heretic magic, to limit a CPUs power draw and most importantly, it will not affect speed on any level (load will increase). There's even people selling their souls to the devil for the ability t

Cool, I guess? I don't see anything actually useful. Right now I'd like Google Translate/Assistant that would translate everything it hears and simply show the language next to the translation on screen. Would make my talks w

And it's a great idea, good thought. I used bicycles in cities where it was possible. But that, and public transportation, only goes so far. A personal car gives incredible freedom, especially to the poor. Suddenly they can live afford

Building PC cases and accessories. In fact, the hardest part is not even the money (which I don't have lol but I'm reasonably sure I can secure it even nowadays), but finding a work/business partner. I simply can't handl

Yes, I've started using illegal, what many consider "heavy" drugs just this year and it is changing the absolute trainwreck of a life I've had. I only regret putting it off for so long because y'know, drugs are bad

People arguing for restricting others' freedoms while enjoying them themselves is what I see. Good old genocide is the ultimate conclusion to that and undeniably the most effective option.

Just skip the bs restrictions on people other than you and mass murder them. Road to hell is paved with good intentions or something.

Heh, anything but allowing them to help themselves. But Canada is way ahead here compared to most countries. Simply on account of cannabis laws. It ain't much though, still better than half of Europe (likely not the half you're th

Not surprising, the piece of diarrhea in the skull probably rewires itself faster than light. Live 20+ years feeling like the worst garbage? Sure. Jump off a bridge? Hell naw, man, here's reasons to live and stuff. But the end result o

Mobile Reddit, Instagram, Twitter, Tiktok, Facebook, pretty much any poor man's digital crackeine, have it figured out. Yeah, it's a wonderful new Web that makes you apply forehead to brick wall.

Many bureaucracies took "throughput, latency, user friendliness" personally. So, out of sheer spite, they decided that should mean "the slowest, least responsive, least friendly thing ever so people give up and piss off"

I've been an IC at a company providing IC services to small companies in the buildings next to FAANG HQs. I've worked as an IC designer, have been involved in a lot of IC (obviously) and I also have several years of experience in

It's not that incredible considering availability, requirements, time from arrival to country to getting the keys, etc. But yeah, once you are renting it, it's pretty nice until you have to move.

As individuals, and even as companies, we can't do much. Worrying about it is just stressing for no benefit to anyone. Governments, elected by the citizens, need to address such strategic concerns. And they actually do. In case it&#x27

You could try to guess based on dark spots maybe but that's more like gambling. Boards that smelled "burney" worked fine while others just failed - the cause of failure was heat as in most cases the thermal pads weren't

Makes sense I think for anything that requires at least some intelligence to perform/finish. Baiting animals (incl. humans, for that matter) into making the first moves gives you a distinct advantage, as you are reacting consciously to

That was a joke - the lazy way (and a meme) to transport people to another world in various manga/anime is by having them get hit by a truck.

It's still possible to get somewhat of an accurate understanding of what you're buying if you read some reviews. I read ~10 two star reviews, ~10 four star reviews, much more depending on price. One stars tend to be full of stuf

While incentives are pretty fucked (Instacrack being worth more than SpaceX, etc), allocation of labour is not a problem. We simply have a lot more best and brightest in everything. There's so much talent it's unreal. There's

I guess you're right. In 1700, I don't think instant worldwide communication was in anyone's wildest predictions of the future. Or even weapons capable of leveling a city in seconds. I'll be happy if I get to see a scram
