Oh, this is from a book of my childhood, “The Romans”. I only found a pdf in Russian, but the book is a translation, and the original authors are Anthony Marks and Graham Tingay. Artists: Ian Jackson and Gerald Wood. http://publ.lib.ru/ARCHIVES/I/‘‘Illyustrirovannaya_mirovaya_istoriya’’/Marks_E…__Rimlyane.(1994).[pdf-fax].zip

A well-rounded list with some great time-sinkers in it!

About the craziness - yes absolutely. In most other places, you use a thing until nobody would use it, or sell it online. And here, people are just: “nah…”
Well, better for us. I also have a shitton of good stuff, including half of my clothes (I’m lucky to have size M, so a lot of stuff fits). Second hand stores look weird now: “Whoa, you need to pay for that?”

I do that all the time. A thing is a thing, and it can be your thing now. I only try to ask myself two things:

1. Do I really need that?
2. Is it in a good condition? I have a lot of used stuff at home, so if I took something half-broken, it would look like a dumpster already.

Sidenote: I live in Denmark, where people overconsume, and then get rid of stuff which is still in good condition.

Apart from the encryption, how exactly does it suck?

Damn, in Russia people were arrested for posting/demonstrating "no to ***”, but a single dot is a new level!

Yeah, the king is a nice guy looking after us idiots!

Sanctus Reach is something I poured a lot of hours in. It’s a classic tabletop-like turn-based game where you pick units for a set number of points.

Would you choose to be driven by waymo, taxi driver, or a bear?

To add to that, on a map it all looks small, so you can imagine: go here, get there. But to actually “cross the front in the opposite direction into Donetsk region” they would need to cover about 300 km - quick, unprotected and without any logistical support, or slow but sure, but this is what they might plan anyway. They will probably try to widen the gap and dismantle the border defences

I see it more as anti-muslim. To be racist, the agenda should be about supremacy of one “kind” of people over another, and here we see a cultural/religion clash.

I’m not sure about it: I like when noodles slowly get less hot, and comfortably drinking the rest of the liquid in the end. And in a thermo cup, if it’s too hot, it’ll stay too hot

I bought a lot of really nice stuff from both places (and some shitty stuff, but most of the time because I “saved” some time by not reading reviews), and they’re basically same, Temu is just Aliexpress, but little bit more expensive and with warehouses in EU. So I just pay a bit more if I need stuff in a few days, not in few weeks.
In many cases, temu stuff is probably just Ali stuff from resellers.
Anyway, no idea how you find temu and Ali any different

I don’t agree with that person, but you’re criticizing said person for having opinions and writing about it. They don’t owe you writing less, writing left-wing propaganda, or reducing their interest in politics.
You could write “you’re an asshole!” and you would be right, but don’t take away a person’s right to comment stuff on the internet.

Yea, progress, progress

Came here to say the same thing. Both US and EU: “this is not real, this is not a real war”.
In their delusion, are helping Ukraine, but it’s a half-ass help. How should a war look to be called a war? Tanks, Aircraft, ships, 1000km trench warfare, ballistic missiles - is that a war?

You sucked for so long that some interest was accrued? Niice!

I majored in stress working in retail

I liked the book and I was surprised how close to it was the movie, the part tgat got there. And yes, they left out many things, but it’s understandable, because the movie was planned as a “funny movie”, not a “socio-economical movie”. So the book was like “drugs-capitalism-drugs-Vietnam-drugs”, tgey cut out all the “boring” parts, leaving only drugs.
The movie is cool though, but It’s just me always trying to appreciate what is shown to me, and not trying to compare with another media.

That’s why you open it upside down, dummy!
