hah tribes just randomly popped into my head yesterday. it was the only fps that ever really had me hooked for long periods. such a great game
My wife and I live in Japan, and her job is in a very, very rural area, while I am able to work remote. Before I moved into her house, we checked her local internet, it was 11mbps with a wired connection. yikes. On top…
yeah it's nothing like it used to be. back in the old days it was like the wild west. nothing was off the table unless it was illegal or grossly against the forum rules. now it's just a forum version of reddit or…
That little bit of personality is what made forums so much fun. The early 2000s somethingawful forums were such a goldmine. I've never laughed so hard in my life at the antics between users. When this person or that guy…
Japan too. never thought I'd see it here but a taxi driver took the long way after a work drinking party. I guess he thought we were too drunk to notice. Well my boss sure did and lost his mind at the guy.
I bumped mine from 5g daily to 15 and noticed way less anxiety. It's a must have for me now. Besides that is the regular benefit of being able to squeeze out a few more reps during my kettlebell workouts
I'll never forget my first week working housing demolition in the Japanese countryside a few years ago. We were outside tearing down an old house, when I saw what I thought were bats. In broad daylight. But they were…
Wonderful breakdown. I love reading this kind of thing. thank you
Since we're a bunch of nerds here, just wanted to throw this out there: cheesemaking is really, really fun. I highly recommend it. I lived five minutes from a dairy farmer in Japan and he sold it to me for around a…
You can see many of them go to the middle and eastern side of kyushu. I just lived in Aso for a few years and can't recommend it enough. The takachiho/gokase/beppu areas are jaw-dropping.
Reminds me of soda. Why the hell liquid poison is allowed to exist turns my stomach. You could fill libraries with data linking it to a myriad illnesses and causes of death. Yet they are even allowed to juke it with…
The climate change alarms have been sounding for decades and yet vehicles keep getting bigger. Even in formerly "doing it right" countries like Japan. Turns out humans will always choose vanity and status symbols over…

Kettlebells are the perfect middle ground for me. Dynamic movements, easy to incorporate strength gains, very little floor space required and one kettlebell is enough to get started. After a few years of kettlebells I…
I see. Thank you for the explanation
Huh? I'm running kde plasma on wayland and flameshot runs like a dream come true. I hit the flameshot icon in the tray, it automatically selects the whole screen to save, or if I click it starts cropping wherever I move…
Wouldn't that be nice. mine are too busy watching pawn stars reruns for the hundredth time
likewise. they are staggeringly beautiful when your mind is in "the zone". It's like a kind of focused meditation with images just flooding the mind
late reply but thank you. I won't bother with the rest of it
It really was magical. It felt like the wild west. I used to buy a copy of 2600 and sit in a cafe reading it just feeling like I could do anything or go anywhere, which I guess I could to a degree back in those days. I…
What did you think of it? I got to about the third book and completely lost interest
Mueller & Oppenheimer (2014) – available via Psychological Science / SAGE (DOI: 10.1177/0956797614524581) Longcamp et al. (2005) – PubMed or Elsevier (Acta Psychologica) Smoker et al. (2009) – Human Factors and…
okay, but if you care about recall and activating regions of the brain that create a better understanding of what you're learning, handwriting wins according to research.
It is also the only way to get my city's public transport system to reply to queries about why a bus is extremely late, when/if it is coming. I always get a nice polite reply because it's publicly available. If I call I…
Feels like every day I run into another reason to never stop taking notes by hand in good old cursive.
