Winners don’t use Lemmy, but guy probably gets a slightly elevated self-esteem from a select few circles.

Oooh. I thought it was a plunger and my guy’s just got a hell of a swing.

That’d be a great game. The entire neighbourhood is warfare. Cubby building, better sticks make for better guns, gotta make alliances with the right street, and make sure the kid with the fancy bike is on your side.

“Sir, we only have 20 mins to capture the park fort! I gotta go for dinner…”

The OED has never been free. Go buy a copy and you’ll know why.

Just bare minimum parenting skills are effective, I’m afraid.

I think it’s more like 5% are so bad, it’s enough to muddle over the average and make the average feel divine. I notice really good drivers almost as often and they’re a pleasure to be behind on a long drive.

I just read and ask locals or online communities, these often tell you the tourist traps to avoid, which are mostly on a company guide list. All the while how to act, what not to.do, what to look out for,.etc. It’s a much more enriching experience. If not with friends,.I’ve teamed.up with backpackers, hotel strangers, and locals I’ve met at bars or online to go around seeing/doing things and exploring.

Tour guides aren’t needed. Nor their buses, speakers, queue cutting, vantage point hogging, street blocking, etc.

They don’t really do anything. They see the catered for attractions, on schedule, with no freedom, pissing off the public along the way. Hence things like this obviously happen.

You want to do something with a group of people? So, go do something with a group of people. Don’t do it with tourist guide companies. If you struggle to fathom such a simple concept, you probably shouldn’t be travelling amongst other cultures and areas yet before reading a bit first. That should be Step 1 of touring anyway, just in case that concept somehow has eluded anyone. It’s called basic respect.

Unless a remote location, tourist groups should be banned everywhere. Also the people that choose go on them.

Still very inconsequential to other concerns and opportunities.

Think of how much work a bee colony is spent on the Queen. Lots of jobs, sure, but an insignificant percentile when factoring the colony. So long as there is a queen of sorts.

Well now I don’t know who to trust on the internet. What are the Cyberpolice spending our tax money on?!

I think their point is belief versus theory. One requires faith, the other thought.

It’s why it’s simulation theory and not Simulationism. People acknowledge it, but don’t follow it, nor believe it, since belief requires clearing unknown gaps with leaps of faith to reach an unknown destination. Theory seeks answers of the unknown with “could be this, could not be this” whereas belief is “it be this”.

This always points back to the paradox which all divinity falls into. The moment we know of a god to be real, it is old news and no longer divine. The next scientific step is “What made it so?” and moves right along to bigger things whether theists are on board or not.

Of the few words ending with -ism and -ist in science or theory, none have belief or faith.

Even the most apparent, such as the Big Bang Theory, are still marked a theory, after all. Believing in them—convinction without 100% knowledge—is foolish and closes doors of what may actually be truth.

Also, microwave your potatoes for a few mins first with a few fork holes.

They’re mostly water so the microwave boils them from the inside out. Then when just becoming soft, put them in a boiling pot or oven. Cuts out so much time.

Imagine, plot twist; she used to be a he.

A caramel macchiato? What is this madness? Must taste like a boxing match in your mouth.

E: Oh, I see. Americans have recipes for “macchiato lattes” and flavoured macchiatos seem to have way too much milk to be a macchiato, which is normally a damn powerful espresso. I think if I ordered that here, they’d confirm confused, and my face would implode. But I’ll try later today.

Despite what you learned from The Simpsons, jobs at powerplants of any kind make up an insignificant percentage of overall jobs and wouldn’t be an issue raised when considering much larger issues such as economies, environmental health, and the climate.

You may be confusing power generation with power infrastructure. Infrastructure has many more jobs but is generally not too concerned about the source so long as there.is power.

The Google habit is hit the third link, scroll to fourth paragraph, your answer should be around there somewhere.

Know a guy whose friend murdered.a guy and didn’t get paid leave or nothing. Straight up fired.

I’ll read the article,.brb.

Chapter 11 will afford Mayor Giuliani the opportunity and time to pursue an appeal, while providing transparency for his finances under the supervision of the bankruptcy court

No.

He looks like a poorly aged Squall Leonhart in that thumbnail.
