Just like you the thoughts would bounce around in my head for the rest of the evening.
He was probably just having a bad day.
If you want distraction from the thoughts bouncing for a while I’d love to hear about a pleasant interaction you’ve had with a stranger. I talked to a lady the other day and we shared stories of what furniture our puppies had eaten. Feel free to elaborate as much as you like.
I have a box of 500 i got in 2015 with 475 left.
That being said I’m not a salesman that see many new potential customers every week. I got a pile of other peoples business cards in my desk drawer and I’ve used them a few times to order some parts.
Wild yes. Uncensored yes. Free… nah they just had not figured out how to charge you. Full of popup ads and suspicious links. I gave the family computer aids at least twice.
And forget netflix. You’d spend 6 hours downloading a movie of worse than VHS quality and that was if you were one of the lucky few with a DSL connection.
It was different. I’m not sure it was better.
I’m not far off the bearded version. But the jaw is uncommon to say the least, which is what I guess what you were after. No, I’ve not seen one like that before.
Legalise and tax it.
I’ve not done any research but generally making anything illegal is worse for everyone involved.
Did they pick me because I was one of the worlds greatest at something who have ever lived?
Must be something like chess-boxing but with half a dozen more sports mixed in. Chess-box-deadlift-slalom-300m rifle-shot put-canoeing-shrimp taming-minigolf.
It’s not so much what if, it’s how you’ll tax someone who can pay the best lawyers and accountants to find loopholes and still find it cheap compared to the tax bill.
A very modest amount of dust. It’s a bathroom sink.
Viable almost all the time. It’s rarely ethical and usually not very effective so it should not be your first resort, and probably not second either.
I wish I had learnt social skills earlier. Brilliant at maths and science but did not start paying attention to the soft skills until mid 20s.
Seed after torrenting?
Turns out the puzzle is blank too and you get to draw whatever you like on the pieces you’ve assembled (crayons not included in the puzzle box). You don’t even have to finish the puzzle. Just put together some pieces and call it a good year. Few more next year.
By now you’re probably thinking something like: yeah that sounds nice and all, how about you give me some practical advice you old fuck that knows nothing about me or my life or what I’m going through.
My answer is you’re right. I don’t know.
What do you think your most urgent issues are? What do you think are some reasonable aspirations and first steps to take?
I’ll stick with 2d and my crayons. The blue ones tastes nice.
Worst experience was taking the train to the airport, only delayed by an hour but I was running to the check in and they were kind enough to let me board. Got stuck in the safety checkpoint due to not being able to check in my bag because late. Thought I lost my wallet because of rush at the security.
Funniest: Plane delayed by an hour due to Italians.
Most hours: maybe 3 hours. Plane, car, bus. Nothing newsworthy. Just sit down and wait.
How many do you want it to have.
The political compass is a tool to illustrate and compare political preferences. The more dimensions you add the more complicated it becomes.
After 3 it gets tricky to draw anything useful. You can still choose which political values to illustrate.
I can sometimes come across as a native speaker. The accent goes all over the place, australian, south african, brittish.

It’s roughly 5-7 times as expensive per km to bury the cables. It’s mainly a cost issue.
It makes sense in dense areas, it does not make sense everywhere. Critical infrastructure has backup power anyway because digging does not solve all reliability issues.
No. Someone more knowledgeable than me was paid good money to think about if we should do it and I’m happy to go with whatever they say over my afternoon on wikipedia level knowledge.
