How do you handle the transport from here to other locations? Im on my first build and it's very spaghetti in it's design

You can blame this all on me for my ignorance. As someone from the US, I can't say I am very familiar with the details on Australian versus New Zealand geography. No miffing was intentional, I assure you!

Primitive technology. There are many imitators, but the original is a man on his own in Australia. His videos focus on building structures in the woods. Starting with river mud, he will make a furnace in order to make bricks in order to make a building to sleep in in order to use it for kiln drying for larger structures etc.....

Be sure to watch with subtitles to read his explanation of things!

Edit to fix: he is based in Australia, not new Zealand.

This might be an "old man yells at cloud" moment for me, but I don't see why the popularity of a movie-trailer-double-feature is more relevant than what either of the movies are about. This seems important to the marketing people, but not the common folk

This confirms what I expected. I thought I was going crazy the first time I saw an ask reddit repost and I recognized all the top answers. Eventually they bots will outnumber the users and dead Internet theory will prevail

There are definitely pockets of reddit that don't have their content flooded with bots, but they are the exception in today's day and age. I especially enjoy the college football subreddit, as there still isn't quite something similar on lemmy

The Real World is an ongoing reality show on MTV. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy was in the 1997 season that took place in Boston Massachusetts.

 

I have recently been going on a city pop genre binge, and previously found this song. I also saw it on an instagram reel, that I no longer have. I was impressed by the trumpet playing, and wanted to listen to the whole song, and possibly more from that artist/group.

I've tried looking through japanese city-pop playlists on spotify and youtube, but it doesn't seem to be a big one, like Stay with Me or something. I also tried looking into japanese jazz (and found some great music), but no luck identifying this song.

I dont know what the lyrics were, but the bits I remember are a short trumpet introduction, with a chromatic pick up into when the phrase starts. The female voice is harmonized and sings a phrase, which is then responded by a group of trumpets belting very high notes in a loud and powerful chord. This sort of voice/trumpet switch off happens for the verse I can remember, but thats about it.

Does this sound at all familiar to anyone?

I had problems with all of his bond movies, but for the most part the problems were never him. I didn't know who he was until I saw casino Royale. I think he was a great bond, I just wish the writing was better in his movies

In my experience, the matching part doesn't really mean anything other than the conversation between the two of you is now possible. Both of you need to participate in that conversation. And it needs to go well if it means you'll have a date. The statistics are not great for men, and nothing is organic about the process, so you just have to protect your feelings and understand that if they don't talk to you, or if it doesn't go well, it can be for any number of reasons.

Try your best to not get frustrated, because each individual person is doing their own thing, it's not you versus all potential matches. You are you. They are them. It just doesn't work out sometimes

Thank you for the update! Im ready to play the second I get home

I would want to do so many things. I would want to do a ninja warrior type course, but with adjusted gravity or something. I'd make it into a gym with everything I need for my workout. That or maybe recreate a sports stadium and watch football from today, because I missed all of it? The possibilities are endless

I read through the non paywalled link and I couldn't find any info on if this analysis adjusts for inflation or not. 17 times larger (before inflation possibly) seems so ripe for cherry picked data points in the name of sensationalism, that I wanted to confirm this one idea, and I didn't. Did anyone else find anything like that?

 

I'm trying to emulate the functionality that Reddit entertainment suite had, but I mostly browsec Lemmy on my phone

 

I am looking ahead to Christmas gifts for my wife. We have the week off and have talked before about having an at home spa day. I am going to get some exfoliating scrubs and some lotions. What are some things you like? Are there any whole kits for the home you are aware of?

I feel like I'd go to bath and bodyworks or bed bath and beyond, but there aren't any of either nearby any more.

 

I dont know about others, but sometimes I am not able to check my phone, or be fully present in a conversation that I'm part of. Maybe I'm concentrating on work, or driving, and not able to look. It gets distracting when my phone is constantly buzzing and chiming for 5 minutes straight. Muting the chat can help, but if you forget to check it, or get added to a new one, you can't really do anything about it. I just want to be able to get notified once that the chat has new messages, decide how I want to react, and then move on from it. Is that too much to ask?
