Da Bald Eagul

Could be an announcement like “Hey guys, tomorrow you have the day off on us. Have fun!” at the end of the work day or whatever.

Saying “you get one day PTO to use whenever you want” is of course better, but sometimes unplanned free time is nice too. Both would work fine imo.

The secret ingredient is spending too much time online as an escape from reality

Online friends helped me get through puberty tbh. Irl my classmates were mostly bullies.

If the internet didn’t exist I very likely wouldn’t be alive today, so I guess not

Doesn’t matter at all. Usually off because of comfort, but not for cleanliness. What other people do, I don’t care. If it gets dirty it’ll be cleaned at some point.

Here, plugs are 230V and 16A = 3680W. Not quite as much as I thought (most extension cords seem to be rated for a bit more, which makes sense), but definitely enough to run monitors of the same breaker.

3840W per breaker. Minus 2400 leaves 1440W, for a CPU, the minor components, and monitors/other equipment. In theory it could work.

Cats have 9 lives

Yes, every Dutch person is directly, personally, and fully responsible for not preventing this.

Realty would be more interesting than half the shows on Netflix tbh

They have a trial for 100 searches iirc. And they also occasionally share referral links to subscribers that are 3 month premium subs to share with friends so they can try

I, too, like pickles.

Same here. I wanna study compsci, do some research into things I pick up as being interesting along the way, then work on FOSS for as much as I can (without burning myself out, or anything like that). The world doesn’t appreciate FOSS enough, but it could very well be the future of computing, as our capitalistic society quickly gets fucked up :')

Ah, so Russia wants to create rifts between Eastern and Western Europe, got it!

Yes.

Federation isn’t exclusive to the Fediverse. Matrix is federated but not with the Fediverse. They only federate with other Matrix servers/instances.

Depressed non-binary fuck-up

I do get car sickness too, but from what I know that’s related to a mismatch between what your eyes see and your ears’ balancing organ (forgot the name sorry, not a native speaker) feels.

So in the car, you see your environment staying still around you, even though the vehicle is accelerating or decelerating. In this gyro, you could in theory see more of it, so this effect wouldn’t be as bad.

Pretty fun! It’s been a bit so I can’t really go into detail (my memory is pretty shit lol), but I’d definitely recommend it. Not nearly as nauseating as you’d think it’d be, in my opinion.

Looks like it’s called an Aerotrim. I’ve actually been in one of those, it’s pretty cool. Just for fun though, not as training. So I didn’t control any of the movements.
