Bring it on, mafia state.

40-plus, I wanted a non-American alternative to reddit.

All the time lol, my brain does not keep up with my mouth at all.

Last week we were talking about how the Germans are good at making bread, and I said “yeah they have some experience putting things in ovens”. There might have been an audible gasp.

Or if you are HR would you see it as a negative if you received an application with no existent LinkedIn account?

Not HR but hiring manager, one of the best guys I hired has no LinkedIn account and I didn’t mind. I go purely by resume and interview.

Weightlifting, genealogy, soccer, reading, travel, chess, cycling

Sounds a bit old-timey. I refuse to believe that there are people younger than 60 years old with that name.

Interstellar, The Day after Tomorrow, Deep Impact.

Nice, so we can just send you to instances I don’t like.

I have some Usenet posts from the late 90s that are still there. My oldest actively maintained internet presence is probably my LinkedIn account, which I registered in 2008.

Have a look at the Copenhagen criteria. How much of that is even remotely realistic?

I did, on numerous occasions, and it rocked. I’ve seen most countries in Europe, with the notable exception of Ukraine, which I hope to visit in the future.

If it’s your first time solo traveling I’d start out with a long weekend or a week and see if it’s for you. Also, making friends while traveling is super easy, even for introverted people.

Replaced my Gillette razor with Boldking. Migrated my Bluesky account to a Eurosky PDS.

Today. It was a sunny day, I was back at the office after a couple of miserable sick days, I had good food. I was happy, or maybe very content is more accurate. Although happiness is pretty much my default setting.

Vivaldi.

What is the point of making up a scenario in your head to get mad at?

In my time, longcat was long and we LIKED it!

It sucks that things are like this now. It was very different when I was in my 20s, and as a result I met up with a ton of people and had lots of fun.

Depending on timeframe and definition of what colonization entails.

This won’t help the poor countries, they will have the technological knowledge but not the budget. All it will do is give billionaires the ability to travel to some far-off planet, like Elon Mu… you know what, I agree.

Counterpoint: intervention exists on an multi-dimensional axis with different causes, methods of intervening, and potential outcomes. I don’t want to assign moral equivalence to intervention in the Rwanda genocide (morally justified, but didn’t happen) vs. American involvement in the libration of Europe from Nazi Germany (morally justified, did happen) and the Vietnam War (morally very dodgy, took place nonetheless)
