  • I'm pretty sure that religion was mostly used as a kind of motivational tool for the masses, but without religion there probably would have been another excuse why the enemy needs to die

    It's always about resources and shit anyway

  • Hehe, that's exactly where I got my idea from to control my breathing to try to float ;⁠-⁠)

    Like an internal dive jacket

  • Ha! I'm skinny too and my wife always tells me, floating in water is just a learnable skill

    I'm just drowning as well...even if I try to control my breathing to stay afloat, my legs will drop and it's just a constant struggle to stay tensed, breathing while trying to keep a full lung to have more volume...
    She meanwhile just floats by relaxing and doing nothing.

    I'm still not sure if it's really just technique or her boobs are acting as a life vest...

  • Yeah, in Austria we were drinking unofficially sometimes with 14/15, and legally with 16.

  • Not OP:
    In other languages (like German) nouns are capitalized.
    I often write mails inside Europe that way to make it easy readable and put focus on the stuff I find necessary.

    For English native speakers it's probably really looks like hidden code ;⁠-⁠)

    Edit: ok, read said comment and you're right. That's just like throwing a dice...

  • I loved my Pulse 15 (Gen 1) from Tuxedo

    It was a performance monster and still had amazing battery life.
    But as others have said, they only take some finished Clevo models - like most small distributors, who can't afford their own factory.

    But they verify that everything runs with Linux, else they sometimes patch stuff.

    And I need to highlight their support!
    After years with my Pulse 15 the battery became a pillow, because I used a USB C charger that wasn't working right (always switched on and off, which killed the battery)
    Pretty much without questions asked I got a new battery for free.

    Now I have it to my nephew, who enjoys Minecraft on this laptop (still Linux), but the CMOS battery was dead.
    Got that one for free as well after warranty

    So, I can't really complain about them.
    Actually the opposite.

    But I still settled for a Framework 16, because I wanted something different and the models at that time weren't fitting my use case...

  • Wouldn't it be kCal for the fried food and beer?

  • Since the new laws now, yes

  • In what hell hole of Europe are you, that you don't get freshly brewed espresso?

  • Yeah... Thanks
    English isn't my first language and it's Friday, I'm everything but sober

  • I worked with a diplomated software engineer and that idiot couldn't even set up his own computer.

    This whole branche is cursed...

  • Exactly what I was thinking, but couldn't remember the name of the book anymore
    Thank you very much!

  • Doesn't it depend on the ritual?
    The corner in which you're starting and ending should have a meaning and should set the subconscious for the ritual as symbol.

    At least that's the idea, as far as I've understood it

  • Had a cat who woke me up that way

    My mother couldn't get me out of bed, so she just sent the cat, which would do under the blankets and bite my toes.

    If I resisted to much though, she would get caring and start to grab my head and lick my hair - always the same place, until it would get sore, and hung over teenager me gave in and still got up.

    She would often sleep in my hands at night, curled up under the blanket. But in the morning, she was my mother's demon to kill my dreams...

  • As said, I was young...

  • Spicy upfront

  • I was 16 and saved all my money for my own laptop.

    Was looking at a MacBook Pro, which was sold on eBay as an outlet unit with minor defects (like scratches) for a third less.

    Bought it and sent my money through Western Union just to never see it - or any laptop - again

    16 year old me was more than heart broken...

  • In Austria we also had the 'Schilling' before the Euro

    I'm still not sure how this 2 currencies are connected - at least by name...
