  • I've once worked an entire year with no breaks whatsoever during the 8 h shift. High speed, intense, no-errors-policy. After a year, it had taken a huge toll on my health.

  • I had a solar-powered pocket calculator with a membrane once. Credit-card-sized. You can tell I was a nerd because I owned three pocket calculators at the same time.

  • Motion to bring "lakh" to the Westen world.

  • I completely agree. Just look at the frontpage of Lemmy and the "big" social media instances, they are dominated by things we hate. Yet we are forced to endlessly discuss and react to the stream of BS instead of taking action.

  • Take an aspirin, they hate the taste.
    50 mg a day keeps the bedbugs at bay.
    I do it every time I'm staying overnight at hotels, in particular.
    Obviously, medical supervision is advised if you intend to do this for a long time, let's say, more than 2 weeks.

  • Your suggestion has at least two severe issues:

    • It doesn't scale. The people that can and want to "wait until they're ready" probably are doing that already. Meanwhile, the large, unwashed majority does whatever they feel like, and why would they want that to change?
    • It takes away personal liberty and punishes people who "cannot control themselves," giving way to social authoritarianism. To me, that's the exact opposite of what any elected government should do: to make people's lives better.
  • Landing pages, too. Often with a corny Shockwave animation.

  • Also, good guy St. Pauli. They are also currently transforming into a co-op which is unique in German soccer. TRAILBLAZERS!

  • My first thought was spies... because they are already on someone else's payroll.
    Also, bootlickers and extremely desperate people that would take on any job.

  • Hmm. Interesting, indeed. Now please excuse me while I, once again, sacrifice my own bodily fluids on the modern-age altar of fertility which has been optimized over ages and ages into the convenient shape of a... sock.

  • Wait until you find out about "Stray Cat Blues."

  • Nuttin No Go So
    The original "football moves" clip went viral a long time ago, and the song goes along well with it. Took me a while to understand just how awfully reactionary the lyrics are.

  • Next you'll be telling me that "So, how often do you flick the bean?" is not a great pickup line.

  • We get them a lot around here. They don't make for good pets, but they keep the borogoves at bay.

  • I gotta disagree with you here. At least on the sub(s) that I still - on the occasion of big events - take a glance at. To me, Reddit comments are the epitome of staleness and predictability. Also, their user base seems like a bunch of 40-year-old dads that mentally peaked at 16, but keep getting more racist by the year.

  • Precisely this. From a philosophical-logical POV, it doesn't make sense. From the POV of establishing and maintaining power/ dominance/ oppression/ hegemony, however, it's the only thing that makes sense.
