It’s not just delivery services, basically everything has been co-opted by tech bros that take a huge cut for transactions that are between two parties that have nothing to do with them, just for providing a “shiny” platform. Hotel bookings, AirBnB, marketplaces, Uber, and so on and so forth. All platforms that could be managed by 3 Devs in a basement, or public and managed by the government, but somehow they require 10k employees and vacuum up billions?
It sounds like how I think I sound, so nothing like what I really sound like in recordings.
Definitely yes for tractors, you should see John Deere’s business practices and walled garden of maintenance and repairability! Peak capitalism right there.
I grew up in Asia and had a chipped playstation 1 as a kid. It allowed it to read copies, was pretty standard stuff over there the copies could be found in legit stores and everything.
Anyway it started struggling to read the CDs. We figured out if we turned it upside down, it would be able to read them no problem. I suspect it was gravity making the lens come a bit closer to the CDs but don’t know for sure.
It was certainly funny having it upside down, worked a charm.
I donate monthly to my instance.
It’s basically the translation to teenager, so up to 20, over 20 they could still be called “grand ado” (big teen) if they’re still not really mature.
Oh of course, you meant an electric counter top ice maker. For some reason you said “I don’t have a fridge” and my brain translated that to “I have no electricity and live in a cabin in the forest”… I was eagerly googling how to make home made ice using some fancy old process… Yes, I am quite dumb at times.
Yes precisely, this layout is more suited to 4 single people sharing the place. Two bathrooms are plenty, or even one full bathroom + a separate toilet like we have in our house.
Now that I have a village house, I’m actually kinda of missing apartment life, there’s so much upkeep here… But we’d need a 3 or 4 bedroom, ideally where I can also run my business (requires additional space), and apartments that tick those boxes are usually luxury prices.
I try to reason myself that he’s playing the long game and whatever but god damn it feels dirty.
There is and it’s not quite at the level all these headlines are making it sound like. He says something like “daddy has to use his authority” or something like that. Still bad but these headlines make it sound like he was groveling in a gimp suit.
You can fascinate a woman with frog.
Not OP’s fault but I have PTSD of the word “disgusting” from my years in tech dealing with angry UK customers, they loooove using this word to complain about the most mundane shit like it’s a war crime.
Came in here to say detectorists, now I’m leaving with a new show to rewatch, score!
OK so the mug acts like a small pot, but isn’t the handle also crazy hot then?
You do not need to fill up a kettle. The less you put in it the less time it takes too.
I don’t even understand how that could work, surely a standard mug would break one way or another if you just stick it on the stove?
Same in french, “un pénis”, but “une bite”.
Dunno about favourite but I recently watched the surfer and it kinda hit a weird spot I didn’t know I have. Was pretty good.
Still ends in the same place though right?
Yeah I knew right away that was gonna be a winter thing but still cool.
