I'm still looking for my childhood CDs/DVDs that somehow got lost in my parents' binders and are now possibly lost to time. I love keeping them in the case so I can admire the album art and possibly the booklet before listening
Yeah as long as they stay outside of the restricted areas (near bed or chairs) they get to stay. There's a spider in my bedroom that's been there for months in the same spot. Right next to the balcony door.
Possible, but at least in my experience most normal people know 1/3rd and understand what it means, but if I'd throw a "point three repeating" at them they'd probably get confused. Fractions are just a tool to communicate stuff more efficiently, good in some scenarios, confusing in others. It would be cool if we could teach everyone the "repeating" syntax as well because it's another useful tool.
In many cases that's fine, I've done so regularly. But when you want to be precise without making it complicated you can just say the fraction as well. But in order to do that you need people to feel comfortable with it, therefore we need to teach kids this from a young age. I'm not saying we always need them, but they're definitely very useful tools that you want at the ready when you need them. To make quick calculations in your head it's often way simpler to use the fraction than the real number. And in cases like 1/3rd or 3/7ths it's a way simpler, accurate and more efficient way to communicate the number than to name the rounded number.
Imo fractions are way more simple in many cases than decimal numbers. Saying 1/3rd is way more useful than hitting someone with the 0.33333333333333....
Quick mental computations with fractions are also simpler in this case. Though this question (and questions like it) seem useless to me indeed.
I'm gonna fight to make sure that moment never comes. Though I seem to have been blessed anyway, I'm in my 30s and my hair hasn't really disappeared much at all.
There's a big difference between food safety and not eating meat. One is about companies putting dangerous stuff in food that can potentially harm people, the other is about something which humans have been eating ever since they existed. I understand that there are some arguments to be given about why we shouldn't eat meat, but those are definitely not as widely supported as disallowing the companies to inject "poison" into our food. In my opinion banning meat definitely would go way too far, the cost of banning meat far exceeds the benefits for public wellbeing.
Why have black history month or black lives matter, don't all lives matter? Why have feminism, don't all genders matter? Why aren't cishets included in pride, can't they be proud?!
These things exist to call out specific issues that exist for specific groups. Other groups might experience the same problem, but that doesn't matter. This is for men and their specific issues. As a man we're always told to just suck it up and keep going. To be strong. It was way tools late that I realized that I was allowed to seek help and feel emotions.
Damn what a crybaby. I've recently discovered that "non-manly" products tend to be better anyways. I don't want my hair to smell like chemicals, I want it to smell like roses or mango. I want my skin and hair to be soft. And I generally don't need 5-in-1 shower products
I'm actually kinda interested in eating insects already. I'd definitely try it if I got the option to cheaply and conveniently do so. Insects sound disgusting, but honestly eating a dead pig doesn't exactly sound that great either of you think about it. And I feel way less remorse for eating insects than larger animals.
5 meals is also excessive. I have the same schedule and I eat the normal 3 meals a day: breakfast, lunch, dinner. I can't really miss any because then my tummy becomes very distracting. I really don't understand how you can go till 3pm without feeling any adverse effects. If I skip breakfast I'll be useless and dizzy till lunch.
For a few files, sure. Idk how I'd use that on the large corporate Java codebase that I usually work with though. Despite all its memory hogging and unnecessary features, IntelliJ also proves remarkably useful when trying to find anything in these mega projects. Features like ctrl + clicking on a method call to get to its definition (even when it is in a different project that I don't have checked out), the refactoring tools, the debugger, etc are absolutely necessary to get anything done.
Beyond All Reason mentioned! I love that game, probably my favorite RTS. I love playing with friends against the AI. I have no real interest in online PvP because it stresses me out, but even without that there's plenty of fun to be had with BAR. A must try for any fans of Total Annihilation, Supreme Commander, Planetary Annihilation, etc. and actually die RTS fans in general.

As an asexual I'm willing to share purple with any other cool people. Keep loving purple :3
