Please and thank you.

Be me with a Singaporean accent. I hate it and I’m thinking of getting a vocal coach to learn proper diction.

Rectangle Pro for me, 100%. I bought the paid version too as I loved it.

I like my windows organized and macOS has this penchant for chaos. Windoze at least has FancyZones in PowerToys which is chef’s kiss perfectly done, and I can’t live without it.

Big Weather man, they’re part of the deep state that’s silencing conservative voices by stopping them from going outside.

As per Hollywood, rip out the SIM card, break into two, hurl your phone to the ground and curb stomp it thrice. That should be enough sanitization.

As if all that is not depressing on its own, there just a little less than half of the world that believe it’s a hoax. While they’re being cooked alive. And continue to vote for politicians that perpetuate the idea it’s a hoax.

“Listen, you gotta ease up on all that porn man …”

I’m very surprised at you getting mass downvoted.

Their current plight goes all the way back to the 70s, where they literally got everything they wanted.

The Shah deposed, check. Carter humiliated and out of office, check. Religious oligarchy / theocracy / Islamic fundamentalism and Khomeini in power, check. Reagan elected, check. The US embarrassed and shamed, check.

Nothing good it seems come out of getting involved in the affairs of the Middle East.

Thank you for sharing this. I felt this abit as I walked out on a job that paid handsomely but I had to deal with unrealistic expectations and a passive aggressive boss. I put in my two months’ notice and all my colleagues remarked that I looked like the happiest guy on earth.

I’m privileged to be able to call it a day and take a break, and I’m enjoying applying to various outlets with no particular rush to land something. I spend my days doing things I enjoy, going to the gym, spending time tinkering with my PCs, enjoying games as a patient gamer, etc.

Someday I also wish to follow in OP’s footsteps and retire to a rural community where I can see out my days in peace, without dealing with all the doom and gloom in the world right now. I’ve long mentally checked out of Earth and looking forward to sweet sweet forever-sleep.

I’m almost afraid to admit, but I dig it.

You leave my E89 Z4 alone!

That everyday we move closer to finding a cure for male pattern baldness.

On StackOverflow: “never mind, figured it out.”

Can confirm. My adopted rag doll mix does this to my hands. Grab and flipper kick till submission. RIP my hands.

Thank you for sharing this. I learn something new everyday, much appreciated.

I expect any actual progress in this matter to feature heavily in a forceful response by the Chinese. If you follow geopolitics, China will be effectively hemmed in by Vietnam, Philippines, Taiwan, Korea and Japan. Their Navy, merchant vessels and trade routes will be under significant existential treat. My bet is that this will strengthen their resolve to take Taiwan by force to ensure that shipping lanes remain open. Otherwise, I wouldn’t put it past them to form a formal alliance with Russia and North Korea to secure a northern breakout.

I’m not a lawyer nor geopolitical analyst but I recall that regardless of the actual merits of the claim, China or any country must insist on disputing territorial ownership, so as not to tacitly concede that it does not belong to them. The actual resolution of the dispute might not be as relevant as the mere presence of a dispute itself. Not sure if this is still the right take, happy to be corrected by someone more knowledgeable.

This is classical confirmation bias + Dunning Kruger at work. People like to think they know the facts and are hesitant to admit they might have erroneous information. It’s likely those that sprout misinformation would scroll right past over our discourse and see the next misinformed post and go “AH HA! I was right!”

I had to scroll too damned far down to find this.

I’m not a nutritionist by any means, but I was under the impression that coconut water is a mild laxative. Not sure if that’s the case with commercial products though.
