Lumisal,

I like the idea and gameplay, but man am I tired of that color palette

Lumisal,

How many bots.

Lumisal,

Well now he owns it so should be easy for him to publish that.

But then those who carry musky water for him probably wouldn’t be able to do so.

Lumisal,

Cool.

But until you call tell me how many bots, your claim isn’t evidence that it’s actually as active as you imply it to be - at least by humans.

Regarding sleep quality, why did humans evolve to require full darkness?

I know evolution is governed by chance and it is random but does it make sense to “ruin” sleep if there’s light? I mean normally, outside, you never have pure darkness, there are the moon and stars even at night. In certain zones of the Earth we also have long periods of no sunshine and long periods of only sunshine....

Lumisal,

Does this mean humans in far north climates have different methods of determinating sleep times? Because I’m originally from close to the equator and I’m the summer I’ll be awake until near midnight when at least we get some dusk, but the nightless days really screw me up

Lumisal,

Now that’s an old reference right there

Anyone have luck with a hair growth *inhibitor*? Especially my fellow gentledudes who could be mistaken for sasquatch after skipping a day of shaving.

I’ve heard of things like Nair that make it fall out… if that was a one-and-done solution I’d be all for it, but I’m hoping for something that slows or stops it from growing....

Lumisal,

You should just razor the neck area and keep it trimmed short if it’s thick. Don’t use any products. The products can make itching worse.

But if you really want to thin it out and slow the growth, I used to be like you, and chemo has done wonders for that. Slows all the hair actually. (/S)

But seriously it’s curious not having a fast growing beard. Haven’t known what that’s like since I first grew one at 12.

Lumisal,

I sympathized with your statement immediately, but then after thinking about it for a bit, most people basically have controlled pressure bombs (gas-water boilers) and buildings filled with gas pipes that can (and have) wiped out whole city blocks.

It’s still not a good idea, obviously, but localized fossil fuels are also ridiculous when you think about it.

Lumisal,

They could also just take a regular cellphone.

As far as I can see, this is banning smartphones, not cellphones. Can still do calls and text.

Lumisal,

My wife is a teacher in Finland and two cousins are teachers in USA.

Smartphones don’t help with education either. Two things can be true. I’m not even sure what you mean by “corralling student attention in the hands of the parents”.

That said, I was sarcastically replying to the comment above me which sarcastically suggested old school tape recorders.

Lumisal,

I know right?

So imagine just how much you have to fuck up as a rich white guy to actually get convicted of something in such a fucked up system.

Lumisal,

You can smell them feet away if it’s a pile of dead ones

Lumisal,

Try BazziteOS

It’s meant for gaming, but I find it’s so feature complete that’s it’s great for non-gaming purposes.

Somehow it even works better on my monitor than Windows, since I can actually control my brightness from an applet rather than having to use my monitor buttons.

Lumisal,

No one here mentioning this will be a gold mine for Malware makers and hackers.

Lumisal,

You can make a persistent install on a thumb drive actually. Has been possible for about a decade I think. There’s even a program now called Ventoy that lets you make multiple persistent installs of different Linux distros on a single thumb drive even.

Lumisal,

Normally when your PC is initially starting up, F8 will bring up the boot menu and you’d select the USB drive. Otherwise, where it says boot order, clicking around there should let you change the boot order and have the drive boot first every time. Actually, if you’re using it as a persistent then this is probably the better option.

I’m not the biggest computer buff compared to some here, so if I’m wrong in any way let me know or comment again - someone will likely come give the right answer lol.

Plus I haven’t used Ventoy much, I only used to do it the old fashioned way of partitioning it many years ago until I found what I liked best.

For beginners, I recommend Fedora or Ubuntu based distros because they’re definitely the most user friendly, like windows or the days, possibly more now? At least BazziteOS has had more feature compatibility than Windows, which I was shocked by. Still testing all my games, but so far that works well too.

Lumisal,

My understanding of Kant isn’t that the world exists outside of our brain, but that what we perceive as the world can never be determined because we perceive things differently. I mean, many of us don’t even see the exact same colors for example. And this can be extended to quantum physics even when you consider that certain things are based on when they are observed.

Lumisal,

Neither was that YouTube video 🤷🏻‍♂️

Lumisal,

Core memory unlocked

Lumisal,

Wait, I’m confused. You went to a Greek consulate that wasn’t assigned to your location, and never interacted with Finnish or German ones but lumped them in? And why didn’t you apply for the Schengen visa using your wife’s US paperwork? She’s a permanent resident of the USA after all, and should have a social security number no?

But also, none of that has to do with the approval process of moving to a EU country

Lumisal,

From my understanding what you said and texting my friends, sounds like a paperwork issue. They never had trouble, but yeah, they lived in the Philippines. The issue in your case is that she doesn’t live in the Philippines, so yes, she has to go there for the process because that’s the only country she’s a citizen of currently, although it would probably be possible to also do through a Phillipine embassy.

So they do accept Phillipine paperwork, but only official documents from the country itself.

Did you not have any official paperwork from there first notorized by the US? That’s what’s usually done in cases like yours, like my Highschool’s friend’s grandmother had to do when she got her US citizenship as well (so it’s something you might want to look into anyway just in case).

That’s probably your confusion on them “refusing” to accept the paperwork (although of course it also sounds like you had to deal with a racist cunt).

That said, it’s weird for you to judge entire countries as super racist when you live in Alabama based off a few racists. I mean, even my black friends from when I lived in Texas didn’t like stopping in Alabama. Just, something to consider for the future. I know racism can be extremely infuriating having experienced it both myself and seeing it done to my family, but you always have to remember that the asshole doesn’t make the nation. Otherwise you end up also becoming what you hate.

Lumisal,

According to USA friends he fucked with records of ex-pats and it was a nightmare for a bit when their family members were getting citizenship. That’s why I also brought him up.

Lumisal,

Yeah, I’m pretty certain that racist asshole used bureaucracy to be an asshole.

But you should get them notarized in the USA when you can in the future just in case. Harder for smaller countries to not accept diverging when a country line the USA already legally okays it.

Lumisal,

Hawaii is nicer than Greece. My brother lives in Waikiki. If they exterminate the mosquitoes then it truly would be pretty close to a mythical tropical paradise.
