I donated to calibre, makes my eBook viable.

I’ve met German (and French) women in Australia who’ve openly said they’ve got a Muslim men problem. e: I was somewhat shocked to hear it as an Aussie. We were all at a party round a fire and they all started comparing stories of hassles they got back home.

Australian xiellenial here, 12 years ago I taught at tafe and I reckon about half the class was on gambling apps. I was shocked as none of my peers use them AFAIK.

You can get an assist from a speed bump if you time it right. Just as the car apex’s the bump drop it into 2nd and the wee hill can be enough to start the car.

Hill starts. Pedal timing for take off from standing. There’s a little dance to learn, @Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk hill start advice should see you learning it.

Parked or driving, you’ve got to be able to take off while facing uphill without rolling back. You don’t want to roll back into the person behind you. Also a good reason not to pull up too close behind others on a hill.

Yeah. Twenty years ago. I worked for two ISPs over the years. At both of them the test accounts for support to use were unmonitored accounts due to how many places they were used and logged in by. In both cases I simply put those login details into my home setup and got free internet for probably about three years. Before that some friends got a un/pw file from a university and decrypted a few hundred names and passwords for accounts which gave free dialup access to students. Again multiple logins seemed allowed so the only person losing was the uni/isp. Used to be able to pull about ~14gb a month through a dialup connection. Probably via napster, kazaa and soulseek, I can’t remember if torrents were a thing back then.

I’m in my 40s and daily a spoon I was given around my birth.

I block the moe communities when they pop up. e: I’m not against it, I just don’t care.

Cowboy Bebop?

Breast reduction is more common than enlargement as far as surgery goes.

Some guys might actually need a truck for truck stuff too.

Where do you place “be kind to each other” on the propaganda scale?

Jackbox games on the PC/phones and various sandwiches cut into triangles.

Moby - long ambients.

Nine inch nails - ghosts.

Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient works 85-92.

There’s a whole genre called dark ambient.

A doctor will order scans of the area to see if there’s anything obvious requiring surgery, otherwise a physio or similar should be able to provide you some exercises to strengthen the body. You could probably just take yoga, pilates or calisthenics classes as long as you don’t exacerbate things.

You don’t mention doing any exercise.

Girl from ipanema melody. Sorry, it’s the rules.

Nah dude. You gotta respect your girlfriends wishes on this. Maybe consider getting a place when she’s 18 so she can get away? Will she be moving for university?

If her plan is to keep living with her family and never revealing you, there’s no outcome to that path. But if she is looking to move or study or whatever, you might see a future for the relationship.

Talk to her about the future and where this is going.

If you go back on your son receiving this gift, it’ll be a dick of a dad move. Like some people have mentioned your best bet is probably to have a discussion about wealth and ethics with your son as well as letting him know your concerns. Like some people say, it’s a lot of money for YOU, for these people it’s not.

I see Dr Jack Daniels and Professor Mary Jane.

You gotta shoot your shot and then be prepared to walk away if they’re not interested. It’s as simple as that. I’ve ended a few friendships with women I’ve developed a crush on as once I had a crush, they weren’t really friendships anymore.
