That’s an intelligent analysis of yourself, a supporting evidence that you fit in the nerd category.

I’m terrible at them. Baked a flat pancake that was supposed to be bread. Fumbling on the guitar. Haven’t drawn anything in the past 3 years. Electrical projects on hold.

I think I have to focus a little bit more 😅

To be fair, a shaft is supposed to go in there, just not that kind of shaft.

The damage has been done, probably 😂

Transformers don’t physically connect, in a transformer there’s a coil on each side of input and output, and the electricity is transmitted by induction.

But I enjoy the thought of being connected with people through electricity!

For a good reason. Approvals are thorough because they are the accumulation of our learnings throughout the decades and centuries.

I don’t know if you’re meaning to justify his actions or what, but let’s not do that justification thingy when it’s completely unjustified.

…and slash regulations. I know this has always been their goal but damn. He doesn’t even need anything more, he has almost everything money can buy, and he thought, “ok, I have to try to buy the government”.

Ikr… I don’t even own a car, I walk to work, take the MRT everywhere etc. and the Americans are electing a president who says “Drill baby, drill”. I’m not an American, but it will affect us all… I live in Taiwan now and I’m fucking afraid of what his presidency will do to the geopolitical balance with China.

I should try this at work hmm.

Indonesia has “only” about 12,000 which is a lot but nothing in comparison to the number in the post.

It’s super sad to see. We used to complain about kids being fed digital “contents” as pacifiers, but now I constantly see older people super fixated with their phone watching tiktok videos. 😔

Physical activity. Going to the gym or going for a run. Watch movies/series. Lazing around while telling myself that it’s ok not to be productive.

I’d like to try it out one day, for now I don’t think I want to do that kind of investment in my setup. It sounds glorious though to have so many monitors.

The trickle down meme economy.

There’s someone who uses 7 monitors?? That’s…impressive, but in what case is a 7 monitor setup useful?

I’m from a third world country in the global South, of course I don’t support any destruction. How is saying nuking a region a support to stop destruction?

Also: I wasn’t accusing them of being a bot, but I can’t imagine anyone not being paid or manipulated to support nuking Europe as if it’s a good idea.

Are you a Russian or Chinese troll? Please quit, your conscience must be telling you to stop.

It’s because “打火機” is a noun, direct translation would be “the fire striking machine” which means the lighter. So the sentence is a shorthand to ask whether they have a lighter.

There are places where natural gas is used for heating and cooking by combustion. These tasks can also be done with electricity for the power source and then we’ll be overall cleaner. However the transition is a massive task and requires a lot of convincing (e.g. that cooking with induction is as good or better even than gas, heat pump costs less in the long run).

Thanks, great read
