  1. No no no. Forget about the 4-4-2. Completely The prices need to drop so i can afford one.
  2. If it isn't sliced by the pizzeria. But only to slice it into four pieces, Then i just fold a piece in half and eat it. And we're talking a kebab pizza with fries on it. No mess, No dishes (If its pre-sliced) I slip into my food coma with no worries or regrets.
  3. I don't see how it would be wise at all. His philosophy overall is somewhat shallow and he was a bit of an antisemite. I'd much rather go for something fun.
  4. I've written no less than three essays on Voltaire during my school years. Kinda got the cliffsnotes version
  5. I have a 1-1.5 hour commute to work and i run an excavator for a living. So most of my day is spent listening to podcasts or audiobooks. And then there are chores. Which has been fine up until now. But i've plowed through the entire Horus heresy book series (61 books) And i'm now caught up on every podcast i listen to. Hell if the next book in the Siege of terra book series wasn't out today i'd be bored.
  6. They might. If i was an EMT and i got your shirt off and i saw "Do not resuscitate" it would probably give me pause. Buddy of mine has a "This side up" tattoo but the arrow points towards his feet. Which is kinda fun. Personally considering getting a tattoo of a mustache on my hip or something else that's normally covered. With the text. "You did it. You found my secret 'stache" I love dad jokes.
  7. I use the dark mode. But i have it on my second monitor. A 165hz, 1ms odyssey that i have in portrait mode. While i game on a 60hz ultrasharp
  8. Seriously though. What he did should be punishable with seven consecutive castrations.
  9. I live in a town with around 50.000 people in it. Imma move out to the countryside. two is a crowd.
  10. With the ever dwindling time for tech in my life (And patience...) I bake, i cook, i go to clubs and pubs with friends and coworkers. Now that summer is here i go fishing and i go to the beach. I paint miniatures and write novels (Pen and paper... Yes i know.) I draw and read books. A friend of mine even drags me, kicking and screaming, to the gym... A lot. Hikes, Horseback riding, Kayaking is pretty fun. Staring eternally into the soul crushing abyss that is tinder, Home decorating, So many hobbies. So little time.
  11. Probably a dinner at $25-ish? Other than that? Time i'll never see again.
  12. Deep breaths. Something to focus on. And lots of practice. My previous laborer at work had me at a constant blinding rage for just about five months. A good audiobook and a reminder that even though it'd be easy to bonk him in the head with the bucket and bury him 20 feet in a swamp. It would've been a fleeting sense of complete and utter relief. And prison doesn't seem all that fun. Ya know. Try to put a logical spin on it.
  13. The west coast of Sweden. A few miles north of Gothenburg.
  14. I've gone a pretty simple route around the problem. I think about the culture of the people that speak it. Their origins. I find real world counterparts and i work around an existing language to find a structure (so to speak) to build the language around. One is like Maori, Another is similar to german. Etc. But only in structure. It doesn't sound like german or maori.
  15. The imitation game. Love me some Benadryl Cucumberhatch
  16. Fluent: English. Had to learn it in school. Now most of my day is spent thinking and speaking in english. (Lots of immigrants at job sites) Swedish. Lived here all my life. Might as well learn the language Danish. I'm half danish. Can hold a conversation: French. Took it in school. Trying to keep it from slipping out of my head. German. My grandmother and her family are german so i picked it up here and there. I also have german cousins. Japanese. Started out weebing. Now i'm learning kanji because i'm clearly not suffering enough. Learning: Russian. Started learning it on and off years ago. Now i may as well keep going since it may become our new language. Arabic. Mostly for fun. My old laborer was arabic and we greeted each other with "marhaban habibi" every morning. If you know you know. Spanish. Little by little. Also for fun. I've also gone mad enough to create a couple of languages for a fantasy series i'm working on. It is maddening. Not recommended.
  17. I capitalize automatically. I also use punctuation and commas in casual conversation (Which some people think means i'm angry for some reason) I mean my pinkie spends 90% of its time on the shift key anyway. Might as well move it once in a while to limber it up.
  18. Excavator operator for more than a decade. With some short stints in healthcare. It ain't glamourous, But man do i love my job for most of the time. And it pays reasonably well Freedom with responsibility. I get to see nature from a climate controlled cab. And lets be honest here. I get to play with 25 ton+ tonka toys on a regular basis. Might make the jump up to site manager one of these days. But i'm in no rush.
  19. I use it for job hunting. But that has slowly become replaced by facebook of all things. And for just job hunting and keeping an eye on companies you like its not too bad. Socially i have no idea. (+ just adding old jobs and stuff to it and exporting a somewhat nice CV is a pretty good bonus)
