There are many animals that are pretty cool; beavers, iguanas, capybaras, kanaroos, crows etc. I find it really hard to pick a favourite.
I’d really like to have a pet iguana one day, though.
Alan Resnick is a genius, his stuff is always worth a watch
They made them in Mexico until 2011, but only for the domestic market.
I was referring to the term old-timer pretty much meaning classic car in German.
The bugs were just a bonus^^ And yes, bugs are quite cool, especially the car variety.
Hehe, oldtimers…
Australia.
Stunning nature, nice people, killer animals; what’s not to love?
Not being completely turned off dating in general by past experiences…
Budget phones aren’t really worth it when you can get a flagship from 3 years ago (with most likely better specs) for about the same price IMO. Sure, updates are a problem but if you’re willing to tinker around a bit it’s doable.
This might be a bit controversial, as Google is obviously also known for their fair share of not so good stuff but I really like their Pixel line of devices. Especially for that stock android experience (doesn’t Samsung even pre-install TikTok nowadays?). Sony phones are also pretty decent from my experience.
As for laptops, the business lines of both Dell (Latitude & Precision) and Lenovo (ThinkPad) are pretty solid. Especially Dell’s support is just amazing, I deal with them regularly at work and they’ve been really great.
As for ASUS; I haven’t had to buy a mainboard in a while but I heard some good things about Gigabyte.
Tidal is a pretty good alternative to Spotify; I think they pay artists the most per stream out of all music streaming services, they offer true Hi-Fi quality for the same price Spotify charges for their base tier and they even upgraded all Hi-Fi members to Hi-Fi Plus for free recently.
Nestlé is a big enough campany that you just have to live with not buying their products I guess… Although there are pretty good alternatives for stuff like frozen pizza (Dr. Oetker is pretty good if that’s available where you live) and chocolate (Tony’s Chocolonely ftw).
Samsung; just a lot of general very anti-consumer behaviour.
LG; a “do not sell my data” option on a TV that’s turned off as standard? No, thanks.
ASUS; has become pretty unreliable in my experience and their RMA shenanigans haven’t helped.
Apple; overpriced and anti-consumer, I wouldn’t mind getting a MacBook as a gift or something, though…
HP; cheap garbage that’s obsolete the moment you buy it and becomes e-waste after the warranty has expired. Their business line is marginally better but there are far better options out there.
Huawei; see above.
Nestlé; do I really have to explain? They’re pretty much the worst company to ever exist.
Spotify; endless price-hikes to enable the CEO to buy more soccer teams and firearm manufacturer shares, pay artists almost nothing per stream, disabled their car thing after two years, lied about Spotify Hi-Fi…
I guess we just didn’t expect to see this kind of realism from a TV screen until it came out, it was a totally new arguably ground-braking thing. Especially with fictional media, which is why James Cameron’s Avatar was so great in 3D (despite being utterly boring IMO).
Think about it, the first HD television broadcasts started in the early 90s in Japan. How exciting that must’ve been. They even got HD movies in the form of Hi-Vision Laserdiscs.
Just eating his slop
Reminds me of that one time someone on some forum linked to a Jeff The Killer screamer site (basically the same thing you’ve described) and I clicked on it.
It initially didn’t even work, because I was using NoScript at the time… So I disabled NoScript temporarily and refreshed the page. It being about 2 in the morning and the speakers being tuned up didn’t help.
Don’t listen to those idiots who try to tell you that it all goes downhill once you’re 25. Just because you’re halfway to being 30 doesn’t mean your life is over.
I’m almost 27 and have never been happier.
a pretty cheap shoe option
I don’t know about international prices but here in Germany, they’re anything but cheap. Looking on their website, most shoes are close to or more than 50€. I wouldn’t exactly call that cheap for what they are.
Depends, I guess.
Are they riding fast Moto Guzzis? Really terrifying but also a lot of fun I imagine. Big, slow-ish Harleys? Not that terrifying, also pretty fun and damn cool IMO.
I went to Vienna to see Kraftwerk and it was really great. Vienna itself is a bit shitty though IMO
Oof, that sounds really bad… I haven’t had any issues with it so far in the ~3 years I’ve been using it (I had it on my old T430s for the longest time); don’t even know how I first found out about it, I think it got a lot of coverage when it first came out.
I’m not trying to discredit your comment, far from it, neither am I really recommending Manjaro; I know that there are better alternatives but I’m a lazy bum, so I just installed the first distro that came to mind (kinda embarrassing considering how meticulously I planed every other aspect of my switch-over to Linux). Thanks for your comment, though.
Do you have any tips for me as far as staying on Manjaro is concerned?
