I'm not sure whether the joke is that dinosaurs went extinct but this guy doesn't know because he's from too far away and he's been seeing earth from millions of years ago, or because he's the comet that made them go extinct.

The main problem with wifi isn't the amount of latency. It's the inconsistency of the latency. Packets just get "stuck" for way too long sometimes, even if the average latency is good.

Im Europe, if you want to buy digital, it can be worth buying with a Norwegian account, they often have the best prices in Europe. Like Zelda TOTK is at least 10.- cheaper in Norway than almost all of Europe. On the other end of the spectrum is Switzerland, where it's 20.- more expensive. So as a Swiss resident, it's 30.- cheaper for me to buy it through a Norwegian account.

Ah, that makes sense, thanks

200Mb/s? What are you using, a 4G+ modem?

There's no such thing as a normalized workweek here in Switzerland. Most have 40-42h. The average are ~41h (edit: it seems that number is a few years old and it's now just shy of 40h - but it's too late in the evening to dig deeper). But yea, in certain jobs/industries, it can also be considerable more.

Isn't the Quran supposed to be read only in Arabic? Or was that just the Torah and Hebrew?

First you need mkfol, otherwise you can't cf anywhere

If you have ADHD, forget combating it with willpower. You need to reduce distractions.

But most of all, get diagnosed properly and then a psychotherapist can help you further, as might the appropriate meds.

It's illegal to a post dog picture without calling them the bestest. First and last warning!

Mine are the worst, tbh

There's no proof that cheese, or even milking, was a thing in the Americas before the arrival of the Europeans iirc

I think tomatoes made it to Europe before cheese made it to the Americas, but not sure

Data. Doesn't. Lie.

Did he just claim that 1x + 1y = 2 without having a second equation to resolve for x and y?

And combined they apply to Loki...without any multiverse

The XMPP stories/comparisons are such bullshit, imho.

Sure, both Google and Facebook both used XMPP for a while (even at the same time, so you could message someone from Google on Facebook), but XMPP was an unpopular niche protocol before that and it's still the same today. I used to be an uber (foss) nerd at the time but even for me the appeal was close to zero - although I've tried it several times.

I've also literally never heard of anyone signing up for Google or Facebook due to their alleged XMPP 3E strategy. Google Mail was already the most popular and most hyped mail provider and Facebook was at its height as the defacto quasi-monopolist social network as well - everyone who was willing to sign up with them had already long done so.

(Funnily enough, the Cisco in-house messaging and video calling solution we use at my work, through which we also receive landline calls, is still running on XMPP to this day, so I sorta became a XMPP user after all...except I haven't started this software in 10 months because fuck landline calls and we have better alternatives for chatting.)

Yea, I'm not a pedophile just because I look like that. I mean, I am a pedophile, but NOT because I look like that!

(For legal reasons, this is a joke.)
