Thought that was Reagan?

Met my girlfriend through OK cupid too, and had the same experience. But I can tell you the app got tinderfied over the years. Used to be you’d just be able to message people and see how you matched from looking up. When I last used it it already hid people behind a swipe system, only allowing people to talk when they both had swiped right. The swiping apps usually feel they’re used by people less interested in what I wanted. For op I’d tell him to use OK cupid if he likes to answer those profiling questions and wants to find someone who also does. For swiping, tinder works best.

Was finding the number odd (expecting a longer orbit) but looks like the solar system has already orbited the center of the milky way 18 to 20 times. Imagine that much change in earth in 20 years.

In China and Japan, traditionally they write top to bottom… Doubt this is a translated post though

How would that work? More automatic or manual input? Those are the bigger CDS right? You have a machine to just put them in and your program reads out the data you need to categorise it? Or is it a Web crawler for publicly available information?

Had a talk with some friends a while back about this. Used to be this big far away country with wonders and crappy things. And it’s turning into scam center galore because the only contact we have these days is the weekly scammer. To the point we’ve come to associate he accent with the situation. It’s really an undeserved fate.

And people who work on ships too yeah. But that’s not the norm, it’s the exception

High end gaming laptops are a curse. It’s a package that cannot be performant, you simply don’t have a good space to cool it and keep it portable. Focus on it has made a big part of development in good hardware to be restricted to space and heat efficiency in a non optimal package.

Desktop is the way to go for gaming, you get much more affordable power and bang for your buck. If you want a machine for gaming you want a space where you can chill out and be confortable, desktop on a table with a good chair and nice monitors are the way to go and cheaper than the laptop counterpart.

Laptop is pretty handy for taking it to wherever you need it. But you cannot enjoy that high end performance on a comparatively tiny screen. If you are just carrying you laptop from desk with monitors and keyboard to another, you’re just using a less effective and expensive desktop in two spots.

Even for working, it’s handy to have a way to take your stuff elsewhere, but the way workstations work you’d much more benefit from having a cheaper desktop at you office and/or home and have a notebook to stream the content you need.

All the while all the money and research spent on high end laptops and graphs cards that live in them is being used to fuel a worse product that will invariably overheat and not work at full capacity.

Over here in Portugal there’s the European legislation, but whether if it is enforced or not is another story. Some places get ridiculous, and I’d imagine that happens all over Europe too.

There’s been one in Ireland I think, that was closed down because a porn actress went there

I do that when I don’t work but will Monday, or after the holidays. But when I actually had time as in, I’m not going to have to be back to work for a long time, I’d start picking up useful stuff. Turns out the sleep in and games/ depressive state comes from expecting to have to go back to the routine again. That’s why how you react to time out when you are still pressured to have to work eventually doesn’t give you a good answer to this question.
