English-learning books call those phrasal verbs and there are entire chapters focused on them. I remember them as the most hated part of English lessons.

I do have a license but refuse to drive. I guess the main reasons would be:

• I get lost very easily and navigating while driving is much harder (no stopping, turning around etc)
• You can't entirely zone out or use that time to do something else like reading so if it's a daily commute this is just lost time
• Road infrastructure here is terrible. I actually find it much safer to drive at night because at least you can see the headlights of cars coming out of blind intersections
• Just like there are (many) places you can't go without a car, there are also places you can't go with a car because there is no parking, mainly the city center, which is the place I visit the most

You also can't drive drunk and I kinda like drinking.

I wouldn't call that hell either tbh but if your winter is 15C there isn't much excuse to wait for summer.

That depends on your body though. I never get sunburns and while 30C is warm but comfortable, anything under 5C is actually painful. So I don't get winter fans either.

Imo it doesn't make much sense to advertise an OS while it's still required to install it manually. Last time I was looking for a laptop I couldn't find a store selling anything with Linux or even without Windows pre-installed. How many people will be convinced by an ad to look up instructions online and actually go through the process?

You can't always put on more clothes. If your hands or face are cold you can't exactly walk around with a ski mask and bulky gloves on.

Will check that, thanks

Probably when not paying attention. But also, sometimes I chew soup if there's rice or other small things in it :p

How common are these outages? My ISP provides a SIM with unlimited data for extended outages (like more than a day). This price doesn't make sense for smaller outages.

I prefer warmer weather like 25-30C but that causes most places to turn up air conditioning. 20-25C is the best so you don't have to carry around extra clothes.

I haven't had to take one in a while but I'll probably try this or simply try without water next time.

Nice, I get the Aaron post and the other two are about trump and musk. You may have a point but I hadn't even seen those posts before so maybe things are more contained in their communities now, so they're less upvoted than in the beginning.

Swallow pills. It takes 3-4 tries every time for the smaller ones.

Maybe it's missing some technology stuff. I don't think leftist posts get that upvoted, even if there's a lot of them.

5 posts about lemmy itself and 1 about musk? That sounds pretty accurate.

Something that comes up a lot but probably can't be made open source is a wallet app. But if we ignore the payments part, Google wallet has some really nice features when dealing with plane tickets which I'd love to see in a standalone open source app.

Came here to say Brașov. Apart from being really beautiful (I went in summer) I was surprised at how walkable it was. Romania is good in that regard in general but Brașov was seriously fun to walk around.

That would just end with normal cars getting there to take advantage of the hight speed limit, which is a great way to cause an accident.

I feel this is mostly the case with short stories (and a lot of those works were short stories). Where there isn't enough material for a full movie, the writers are free to add more to the story without messing much with the original. DADOES did have enough material but the movie decided to go a different direction while keeping the main theme. I wouldn't say one is better than the other in this case as they're pretty different.

The question is, is there a practical difference between lucid dreaming and dreaming about being lucid? I like to think it's the memory afterwards that counts.
