As a non-American, I only recognize Donald Trump and Hulk Hogan in this picture. I would pick seat 7. The person in front of me looks innocent, and behind me is a woman, so she probably isn’t too tall and won’t kick my chair. She might even allow me to recline my seat. I don’t know much about Hulk Hogan, but he seems like a cool dude, and I like his mustache. Tell me, did I choose wisely?

Prolly Clojure. He’s heavily on Clojure these days.

They don’t. Piercing jewelry is usually made from robust materials that are inert in normal conditions, like stainless steel, gold, plastics, and sometimes glass or gemstones. So, no, you don’t taste anything, just as you don’t taste a plastic cup, ceramic mug, or stainless steel pot.

I’m laughing out loud at the skeleton picture! He seems happy about his prints! 😂

But what’s an ᗋR𝖢ꔠ?

The question was “Why do you not believe in universal healthcare?” not “Why don’t you like the libertarian movement?” Jeez, guys.

Isn’t it kinda funny that the “most harmful applications of AI tools are not hidden on the dark corners of the internet,” yet this article is locked behind a paywall?

Although I don’t agree with “The salaries are higher than supply and demand in equilibrium would dictate,” I believe that your point is overall true. One truly cannot assess whether the price is too high or too low in isolation from the law of supply and demand. The role of the buyer (of any good, including labor) is to purchase as cheaply as possible, and the role of the seller is to sell as high as possible. I’m somewhat saddened that now this negotiation has turned kinda toxic. Companies attempt to play the victim card, claiming “no one wants to work,” while labor responds with mere satire, without directly addressing the problem.

Now I want this set! What is a wooden palette for? Can you explain?

I’m reading the answers, and it seems like no one understood the question. 😔

Haven’t touched Factorio in ages. Really looking forward to diving back in with the Space Age expansion!

Games really have to strike a chord with me to stick around in my memory. The last ones that truly left an impression were from when I first got into gaming. I can still vividly remember the impact of Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven, GTA 3, and Vice City and San Andreas—they consumed my thoughts entirely. The allure of uncovering hidden secrets, areas left unexplored, that’s what really drew me in. Half-life 2 was a mind-blowing breakthrough with its physics and storytelling. But nowadays, that spark just seems to be missing. The closest I’ve come recently was with Blizzard’s Heroes of the Storm. The thrill of snatching a victory against the odds, the sense of connection with total strangers—it was something special. It’s the only game that still gets my heart racing these days. However, I’ve found myself drifting away from HotS more and more; it feels like the game is losing its luster (or maybe it’s Blizzard who’s letting it fade… or perhaps MOBAs in general are falling out of favor). As for recent gems that really struck a chord with me, I’d have to mention Hollow Knight, Control (seriously underrated in my opinion—easily one of the best metroidvanias out there, if not the best), and Baldur’s Gate 3, which was unexpectedly captivating.

I spent about 30 seconds staring at this question, followed by 3 minutes pondering how to explain the phenomenon of electricity to someone unfamiliar with it, but nothing came to mind. Then, I went online and found that, while we have some understanding of how to detect and manipulate electricity, fundamentally, it’s just how our universe works and we don’t know exactly what it is.

This comment was the most wholesome thing I saw all week. Even though it wasn’t aimed at me, I deeply appreciate it! ☺️

Disco Elysium: Final Cut resembles more of an immersive audiobook experience, featuring exceptional narrators. As someone with ADHD, focusing on text can be challenging for me, but the audio format greatly enhances my engagement and comprehension.

2% for the reliable independent monetary system seems like a good deal. How much does our current one consume with all its flaws?

For Karl!

I’m going to be heavily downvoted again, but can y’all please stop posting Al Jazeera links? Al Jazeera is propagandistic media. They lie too often to be trusted. Every word that they say should be heavily fact-checked.
