    fucking right after they get rid of the IRA, before the iraq war. lovely country, no wonder Orwell wrote 1984.

    Glad I don't live there anymore

  • oh man, that would be so cool to see from 1st person

  • Turkish hazelnuts are literally built different?? I thought my dad was full of shit since he slings a whole bunch of other nonsense in there alongside.

  • Kemi Badenoch wins Tory leadership election
  • My congratulations go to the reform party and Nigel Farage, probable prime minister like 10 years from now.

  • Kemi Badenoch wins Tory leadership election
  • the big society tories make some mealy mouthed "commitments" to recognising there is a problem, like Cameron.

    NB : I am not saying he did things well, I am saying he at least tried to pay lip service

  • Elon Musk $1 million voter lottery suit sent back to state court
  • Edit: Reminded this is a civil case so no chance of jail or deportation.

    He's the world's second richest fucking person. HOW DOES HE GET PUNISHED IF NOT JAIL OR DEPORTATION?! A fine isn't a real fucking thing, it's the equivalent of me giving less than a penny even though I commited a crime. It's basically free for him

  • NNN
  • ffs, nut november.

  • What would his Borg designation be?

  • Someone forgot to tell these women that Kamala is an incompetent monster and both parties are the same
  • wow, what an impressive ~ 5% lead.

    register to vote if it's not too late, vote

  • Trump says Liz Cheney should be 'shot in face' by 9 guns
  • Swing states : we just can't choose. he said that, but on the other hand, Kamala... well...

  • If you had a 1 year sabbatical, what would you do?
  • In this context, it's an employment specialization that allows you to earn a greater than average income. I was amazed that as a software tester I used to get paid more than a nurse, an arguably more stressful and more important employment path.

    I'm on the left. It's a hard thing that happens in life that I am pointing out, not agreeing with.

  • M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location
  • if it didn't make us angry, and INFLUENCE OTHER BUSINESSES TO DO THE SAME REPUGNANT SHIT, we'd be buying it.

  • American Politics
  • that presidency just kept getting worse, culminating in covid, and the insurrection

  • Latin American leaders condemn assassination attempt against former Bolivian president Evo Morales
  • Kirchner disapproved of this meanwhile Milei....

    I assume he said some rambling anti left wing nonsense while talking to his cloned dogs and wielding a chainsaw.

    For the uninitiated, the previous sentence contains things that Milei actually did, but probably not at the same time.

  • If you had a 1 year sabbatical, what would you do?
  • No job, no clue. At the start the perspective of some others and me were that it felt like I just fell out of the sky and tried to integrate into society.

    I figured I'd either do immersion learning for spanish, or succeed and set up my life here.

    The job came fairly easily, one of the companies from my first wave of applications accepted me.

  • me_irl
  • good job. I hope you get some grandkids that are healthy and happy in the appropriate future

  • If you had a 1 year sabbatical, what would you do?
  • step 1 : have a career

    step 2 : don't spend that much money, building up savings

    step 3 : time is money, therefore, money is time.

    step 4 : be very, very frugal during your time with no work. I ate a lot of protein powder, eggs and pasta

  • If you had a 1 year sabbatical, what would you do?
  • Uruguay, still there.

  • If you had a 1 year sabbatical, what would you do?
  • Hey, I actually did this! It was the best time of my life.

    My aim was to migrate to south america, specialize in my career and get in/stay in shape.

    I spent my days going to the gym, learning spanish, doing impromptu streams on twitch (I found a little community in my preperations to quit my job) , and I did travel to the country I wanted to migrate to and to NY to see a band that rarely plays live, visit my family in a different country and to visit my bud that lived in scandinavia.

    I spent a month with my family preparing a portfolio.

    I saved money during my career, about $16k over several years,and figured, if time is money, money is time.

    I'm happy to answer any questions.

    semi slav to reti transposes, but lichess still says they're different, giving prescident to the move order to determine name of the position's opening.

    even though the position is the same

    there is no inherent point, just an observation to share

    Venetian Snares - Koonut-Kaliffee

    I'm tired of just looking at the fun memes. This post sucks, but I want to play too.

    I just fixed a bug that was over 10 years old.

    I have a dust covered personal project that I created in ACTIONSCRIPT that I started porting to JS recently. I had an audio bug because the synth I created was too simple, so every time a note stopped playing it made an annoying click sound.

    Just fixed it by using attack/decay parameters in a gain node.

    It feels good. next steps feel a lot easier, and I can think about doing some more fun stuff.

    What is the conservative view on how intersex people should live their lives

    Sports? Marriage? Relationships? Professional environment? Pronouns?

    Does it change based on the cause of the person's intersex diagnosis?

    Theme from Farscape

    I loved watching farscape and the theme song always got me pumped for it; it really fit the exotic alien universe they've built up in the fiction.

    Slugdge - Crop Killer
    slugdge.bandcamp.com Crop Killer, by Slugdge

    from the album Esoteric Malacology

    Crop Killer, by Slugdge

    Is this how you want to live your lives?

    inside the vultures circle

    can you feel the talons in your neck?

    Only the strong survive you say?

    Just pray that prey you don't become

    You've got no time for safety nets

    There are no alpha wolves

    Only those struggling to survive the state of nature

    Domestic animals lost without the trappings of their civilization

    You like to play armchair eugenicist, militant pessimist

    An ivory tower that's built upon

    the product of a million labors

    Regression to the mean, repression of the weak

    fraudulent pyramid scheme of human hierarchy

    Do you ever wonder why you've been deprived

    the wealth of nations?

    do you feel the trickle down your leg?

    Preoccupied with war against your own and your own home

    How is it you're not already dead?

    Another failed experiment

    Evidence suggests you will not pass the last great filter

    The soldiers won't defend the hive

    when the Queen neglects to satisfy the builders

    You like to play the devil's advocate, passive and impotent

    brood over fallen empires

    That were built upon the bones of millions

    Narrow minded sanctimonious

    self-serving sophistry

    Greed governing holiness?

    Not in the version I have seen.

    You will not see the stars

    doomed to the tides

    access denied, fated to die
