The most credible source I find credits it to an article by German satirist and journalist, Kurt tucholsky who was supposedly quoting a French diplomat in 1925

I can definitely taste the difference between aspartame and sugar but its not unpleasant to me.

Remember that there’s big polluters of the world want you to believe its all already over and that you can’t win. This is a strategy they explicitly employ, and you are not immune to their propaganda.

But without bots how will I know when I accidentally post a haiku and what political ideology is right!

I think some of that stuff would be a lot more stressful if you expected the job to be a long term thing you need to support yourself with.

It doesn’t change the amount of jizz but the original count of grandparents is making the almost certainly false assumption that the family tree is incest free.

If Linux gets popular the mega corps will just follow them there and then you’ll be asking them to uninstall Dell os or at least remove the Linux recall (powered by bing) that it comes bundled with. Just look at the modern state of android.

Interesting that you say hades has that intuitive randomness, one of my biggest complaints for hades 1 is that you can basically force whatever run you want every single run. It felt like a roguelike for people who hate roguelikes. Isaac otoh I totally agree, its my most played game by far really love it.

I also dislike deckbuilders, but slay the spire is the exception. It skips the tideous deck management a lot of games have and you aren’t playing against an other deck which is a big part of what I hate.

I think the game’s good side doesn’t really show until you beat it. And with the context that moral choice game systems were a trend and up to this point extremely shallow (infamous series, army of two etc).

I couldn’t get into it either though to be honest, but I enjoyed reading about the lore and the games it inspired.

I find it really inconvenient compared to just adding a movie to radarr.

For me I stopped watching sports because it was impossible to stream it for a fair price. They won the piracy fight against me personally so now I just don’t watch at all.

The gambling is really concerning for me, if I have kids I want them to play sports for the exercise, but I think the downsides of all the gambling almost out weigh that at this point. It’s crazy that sports aren’t family friendly anymore.

I do it lying in bed

But why? Why is having static-y clothes a problem.

That’s exactly what I do with my chemex yeah.

Can you imagine how great it would be if every class of item had to come in the same container. It would make reuse of those packages viable which would be way better than recycling ever could.

Plastic recycling really sucks, but paper recycling is usually a net positive and compost is such a no brainer I’m always shocked it isn’t everywhere.

I don’t love that they stop working when your sub expires (unlike audible) but that price does have me really tempted.

Audible costs me about 12CAD/book

Libro seems to only cost 20CAD/book which is a significant hike but it’s not as bad as buying the books outright which costs 30-40$ which is simply too much for me to afford. I’ll probably switch when I run out of ausible credits thanks for the rec!

I think one of the bigger problems with amazon is that it replaces so many different sectors all at once. I don’t think any one single replacement is really solving the problem, furthermore I don’t think an internationally relevant replacement for any one sector is that great either.

I guess the most recent amazon temptation was a utility cabinet, I found a nice one on amazon, but then searched and found an equivalent one from Canadian tire.

The hardest thing for me to break is audio books. I use the library but I find it rarely has what I want in stock, I have tried piracy but I can’t find a good tracker for audio books and I like supporting authors when I can. Audible is really cheap compared to every store front, especially when buying credits in bulk.
