Last time I went to The Hague, I saw a dedicated rayban/meta store in the city centre

that wikipedia article is a work of art

I had the opposite happen to me once back in my early 20s

One time I was dead tired and could barely keep myself awake after working in an university assignment due the next day. I finished past midnight and went to bed at 1am, I recall watching the clock before going to sleep since I had to set up an alarm for 8am or something.

Thing is, I fell asleep immediately, then I woke up fully refreshed before my alarm went off, I woke up feeling amazing, fully awake and ready to go. Then I checked the time… 1:50am. Since I couldn’t fall asleep again I watched some movies until my alarm went off and then went to class like nothing happened.

Yes, I was tired very early the next day, but I still think of that night from time to time

I had an acquittance who made a profile for her son while she was pregnant, profile picture was an ecography and she would sometimes post roleplaying as the baby. I’m glad we’re not in touch anymore.

I swear Instagram started adding random accounts to my following list, from time to time I see posts from random meme accounts and I’m somehow following them, Even tho I only follow people I know IRL.

Similarly in Chile, some talk about the economic miracle under Pinochet. Yet it happened after he left power in 1990.

I did not know about this, thanks !

I started reading believing it would be a piece on how difficult it is to find men who are not misogynistic incel fans of andrew tate or joe rogan, but it’s about how hard it is to find a man who has an 8 figure net worth

London recalls a woman she worked with who asked for a man who practiced a particular religion, had a minimum net worth of eight figures, flew private, and had some idiosyncratic lifestyle specifications. He needed to be okay with her having children and to want more children. Oh, and of course he had to be a certain height and live within a designated geographic radius

it did, but this interview was before the pandemic and the work market was a lot better, I was able to dismiss interviews just like that

I had a job interview for a Senior Linux Engineer, the interview was via MS Teams, I mentioned that MS Teams does not have Linux support (at the time) and requested to have the interview over any other service. They replied asking me to use Windows for the interview, as that was the OS my work laptop would use. I politely replied that I was no longer interested.

At least two major events that happen in my city have announced a full ban on the pervert glasses

I got banned from r/unpopularopinion circa 2015 for trolling. I submitted a post saying that only because something is on Netflix, doesn’t mean that it is automatically good. I got downvoted to hell and a lot of comments showing counter-examples, now that I think about, it must’ve been Netflix PR team.

Anyhow, decided to delete my account that was prior to the Digg migration, then made a new one, but never posted again. Now I’m here and loving it!

I saw an image edit with a Toyota Prius badge and I legit liked it

last week in the subway, there were two people chatting right at the base of the escalator, other passengers were awkwardly shoving past them.

When I got to them I said “you are going to take the escalator or not?” they didn’t reply, but quickly jump into the escalator, then they got out they just stood there continuing talking, at the top. I naturally got shoved into them and told me to look where I was going.

it can be disabled on android, look under emergency broadcasts or wireless emergency alerts

on enterprise, HPE has a similar solution with through iLO, which is not free, of course

I upgraded to a 5700X3D for €200 two years ago and I’m very happy with my decision to upgrade my ageing AM4 desktop. I know that the difference is marginal to the 5800X3D, but I am seriously considering buying one, if the price is reasonable, just to keep my current computer alive just a little bit longer.

I audibly gasped when the trailer announced it will come out on the Switch 1. Got it on day one

I have a similar story to share.

When I was in my early 20s I briefly dated a girl who told me she was having feelings for another woman and was being curious, she eventually broke up with me in order to be with her, but we remained good friends after that.

Eventually she came out as a lesbian and when I told her that I was bi she immediately ended our friendship all even yelled some slurs at me.

AFAIK she’s married with a guy and has kids now

I just migrated my personal projects to Codeberg (and sent a donation their way too!). As soon as I update the origins on my servers I’ll be deleting my GitHub account.

The one FOSS project I contribute to was already being hosted on GitLab to begin with. And my work just announced we’ll be migrating to GitLab as well.

Today is a good day
