Serious question: Is treat yourself day a thing?

Never heard about it before, but I did happen to put in an order for 6 spools of PETG filament and misc electronics for a hobby project on Oct 13th…

North Korea and brutal dictatorship

I interpret it as “Don’t eat biscuits in bed”. Nobody wants to sleep on sticky crunch after you’re both done.

Week days: 0700-0730ish. Gotta get my kids ready for school.
Weekend: At the crack of noon

I tried this during my weeb phase some 20 years ago.

I stumbled across a video lecture series om some torrent site, and despite being very old (from the 70s or 80s) it was actually pretty good for teaching everyday conversational japanese.

I never progressed beyond the very basics due to life happening, but it got me far enough that I could at least grasp the general topic at hand. I’m sure I would’ve gotten a decent understanding of the language if I had kept at it.

Japanese is a fairly simple language with easy grammar. From what little Mandarin I’ve learned, I’d say the two are far enough apart that knowing one probably won’t help you much with the other, although I may be mistaken.

No idea. I’ve only changed brushes in steering pumps for ships. I’ve encountered pumps older than myself, and they still work fine as long as the brushes are changed from time to time.

Carbon brushes, most likely. They wear down over time.

I’m far from an expert, but I’ve been using Hetzner for close to 20 years at this point. Both their VPSes and the actual rent-a-server.

I skimmed the article and I didn’t notice anything blatantly bad in the approach. So they have my approval.

Installed it just now, and typing this comment via FUTO, as I’ve been annoyed by Swiftkey for quite a while.

+1 for rdiff-backup. Been using it for 20 years or so, and I love it.

Fastpris eller Makspris? Hvordan utarter dette seg om våren når strømmen generelt er ganske billig?

At least some are real and common. I doubt this is true across the board, though.

Last time I lived in a city, 15m is where I’d take the bus instead.

“Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac are fine”

• Kramer, early 2008, iirc.

I’m nordic and I didn’t know either.

But yes, we all do this every day all day, recreationally. I just didn’t know the name.

“this meeting could have been an e-mail”

Yup. The only issue is that Apple got this slap in the face after years of locking down their hardware. If android movies in a similar direction, we can probably expect years before any action against it is taken.

I’m a Norwegian with a pretty common nordic first name. My last name is a very rare one, and it denotes a very small area where my family is from.
