The orange shrivelled taco will probably keel over before his term ends. Just look at him, does this look like someone who might survive four more years?

What would happen afterwards with JD Vance at the helm I’m less clear.

It really is a life-affirming movie, isn’t it? I don’t think any other film has affected me in such a positive way.

Children of Men (2006)

The Great Beauty (2013)

Amelie (2001)

Oldboy (2003)

I also like some of the films, so I tired to read “The Stand” as it was one of his more lauded books. My mistake was buying some anniversary edition which came in two tomes and was apparently a longer uncut version the author had initially written, that was then edited down to the produce the initial release.

Couldn’t finish even half of the first tome. King writes good, but loooves to write a lot. I quickly understood why the classic version of the book was cut down so much - I was screaming for all this exposition to cut to the action finally, and it just didn’t come, always being teased as being behind the corner.

Also I found out that as any classic his style has been immitated so much in literature and other media, that by now I’ve basically consumed a ton of Stephen King-like stories and I really don’t get much more from reading his books. So I just gave up on that front, while appreciating him as an author and perpetuum-idea-generator.

VW really dropped the ball on software, no wonder they’re buying now into other car manufacturers like Rivian, in hopes to use someone else’s more developed software.

Oh, remember the good old Nexus 7. Had only a fraction of its performance 1-2 years down the line…

Meanwhile, my Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 2016 still soldiers on with good performance, even if it hasn’t gotten updates in half a decade, and its internal 16GB space is beyond ridiculously small for today’s standards and has to be cleaned up revery few months.

I guess I just felt that “right” is my stronger hand direction, “left” is my weaker hand one. Now, after several years of recovery I feel it almost the same way as before, so my mind makes the same shortcut instead of thinking for a second about it. But if I ever feel the balance of my stronger-weaker side tipped (e.g. right hand has fallen asleep) I guess it’s thinking time again.

When they wrote this “promted explanation from the water body itself” I thought it was some funny wording for a water agency or sth, not that they’d actually attempt to word their answer as if it’s from the waterfall itself, lol.

The park later posted on behalf of the waterfall saying, “I didn’t expect to meet everyone this way”. “As a seasonal scenery I can’t guarantee that I will be in my most beautiful form everytime you come to see me,” it adds. “I made a small enhancement during the dry season only so I would look my best to meet my friends.”

Was surprised I started mixing up left and right after I broke my right-hand wrist while biking.

Turns out I subconsciously associated “right” for the direction my stronger hand was on, and once my left hand started feeling like the more dominant one during recovery - my brain would automatically choose that “right” should be on my left-hand side instead, until I actively thought about which direction is which.

This gradually decreased out as my right hand recovered and got back to being the dominant one over the next few years, but was eye-opening what shortcuts my brain uses for such basic things.

…is 20% owned by Toyota and they share some vehicles.

This is the only one from the list that I skipped. They couldn’t force me to upgrade from 7 at the time, then the reviews came, and I wouldn’t touch 8 with a stick. Waited for Win10 instead.

I wish I could skip 11 to whatever next version they fix it with, but alas this time I’m trapped :/

Prices have gone berserk. New tech and safety features you get are great, if implemented well. Going for a more reliable and conservative car brand might be better for you, and don’t ever buy anything that has capacitative buttons instead of physical ones. Hopefully, safety agencies will downright outlaw this shitty trend soon.

Had to move to a Win11 machine, because of work - I’ve never been so frustrated with a Windows interface in my life. For reference, I’ve used everything from Windows 3.11 to 10, enjoying most upgrades (except Vista). Never have I experienced such UI and usability downgrade.

The Internet Archive has some.

A other happy v630i user here. Don’t know how many years I spent all in all, but I used it for everything. Even remember loading some books as text files, and reading quite a lot on its tiny screen during the longer bus rides.

You can get a Whoop band or Oura ring, or something similar - from what I’ve gathered they are just like regular bracelet or ring, with good sensors inside, and no screen to distract. Plus, this probably makes them way more lightweight than watch-like smartbands.

Article cites UK Ministry of Defence wrong, it’s actually total of 240,000 to 290,000 killed + permamently or temporarily wounded. Still staggering figures, though.

This is the best explanation here so far.

Here’s a video from the place of the explosion - I see no leveled buildings there, just the burned parking lot.

YouTube Music still hasn’t got a “Delete Queue” button. Google Play Music had it, every other streaming service I tried has it, I’ve written them numerous times to request it - nada.

There are a variety of other issues, and they do nothing when you give feedback. Just care about getting your subscription $$$, and even not enough as other services as to try and stop you with some incentive when you unsubscribe. You said it best - Ytm is so ass.
