Siestas are the one thing I miss back in the time I worked in a country that observed them. Nothing better than having a cup of coffee after lunch, taking a quick nap after, and waking up just in time for the caffeine to kick in. If I do that at my work now, I’sd probably be fired for sleeping on the job.

Kpop, kr&b, jpop, jrock, rammstein, panzerballett.

Don’t step on the clutch with just your toes or the ball of your foot. Push down with the entire length of your foot. It’s easier to control it that way because you’ll be lifting/depressing the pedal with your knee movement instead of ankle.

Also, don’t ride the clutch, even if you think you’re just resting your foot over it lightly. That still puts pressure on the pedal. Rest your foot on the dead pedal when not shifting.

Don’t rest your hand on the shifter (applies to automatics too).

Use engine braking to your advantage.

I avoid the sun and just take a vitamin D supplement.

ELI5 why there’s not enough information?

I brought it up with the admin 2 weeks ago and they said they sent a message to the Alexandrite dev. So I’m guessing it’s an Alexandrite thing. Although it’s weird that it works fine on my lemm.ee account.

The smallest screen I was willing to watch a movie or series on was my old 10" Lenovo netbook. I absolutely will not watch a movie on a phone screen. Right now I’m pretty happy with my 65" 4k TV. I’ll probably upgrade to a 75" (or 80"?) when I have extra funds because we do love watching movies and shows. As for movie theaters, post-pandemic I only go if it’s a movie worth seeing in IMAX or Dolby. I’m fortunate that there is a true IMAX theater in my city. If not, I wait for it to be available to watch at home.

The only reason I have WhatsApp is because my neighborhood group chat uses it. I won’t be able to convince an entire community to switch to Signal. Maybe I can try to tell them to move over because some dumbass sent the group invite link in the zoom chat during the townhall meeting that included the (corporate) HOA and developer.

Tenple of the Dog (Chris Cornell & Eddie Vedder) - Hunger Strike

Bic Runga & Dan Wilson - Good Morning Baby

Heize & Dean - And July

Incognito - Still A Friend Of Mine. Technically just one band, but it’s a duet vocal.

Yes, and the trigger on the kick making all the hits uniform helps make it sound clean. I’m not knocking on his skills, the dude does have the talent to back it up.

Yes, like I said, his skill and technique are very good. The triggers and compression just make it sound super clean.

“Did you know you can be tracked if you go to a protest? That’s why I use Nord VPN, to keep me safe from viruses that can steal my personal infomation…”

He’s skilled for sure, but he does use drum triggers that’s why his playing sounds so crisp and clean. If you watch his live playing filmed by amateur cameras and outside his studio, he sounds more “normal”. Not saying it’s bad though, the dude is still very talented.

Same. I earn decent money but can probably get way more elsewhere, yet I’m sticking around because I’m in a pretty good spot with my work-life balance and my manager is great. I hope he sticks around as long as I’m employed there.

Getting to that depth with a submersible is one thing, but being able to enter, navigate inside, grab stuff, and bring them out is another.

What’s on the upper left which I assume is what you put in the dip?

+1. Not tight and stuffy while providing enough containment.

I like how Privacy Badger replaces tracking icons/widgets. I’m guessing uBO just removes them outright? I haven’t really bothered to check the differences.
