Yes, my Logitech mouse, which is great it every other regard, had the left button give out after about of year of very heavy use (StarCraft, not that my APM is that high). With the addition of some superglue and a piece of plastic I’ve been using it for 4 more years, still going strong.
Depends on where you’re talking about. In Australia the right wing are using nuclear as a diversion to slow down the transition to renewables, so they can stay on gas and coal longer.
There’s no nuclear power in Australia, and the time needed to create the industry, train or poach workers, create a plant and get it up and running makes no environmental or economical sense compared to what they are already set to achieve with wind, solar and storage.
If you’ve already got nuclear up and running, use it, but each new plant needs to be compared to the alternatives for that specific location, and the track record of the nuclear industry and government in that location.
I have this problem. A couple of AAA projects I worked on, years of work, got cancelled and all that exists now is “stolen” footage. Then there’s the dozen mobile apps that have been pulled from the app stores (or gotten “out of date” and no longer supported). Can’t find APKs or store listings, just 3rd party site reviews are the only evidence of their existence.
Not at all, we’re all just being jackassed :).
Here’s a fun video essay on the craziness that is Falun gong and the Epoch Times if you want to go further down the rabbit hole: https://youtu.be/ncr62WQnIHA?si=XsIoYofM9wJK7Pwk
By age eight, he had acquired “the superb great law with supernatural powers,” which was supposed to include invisibility, levitation, etc. Li Hongzhi
There’s enough provable atrocities being committed by the Chinese govt to worry about the conspiracy theories as well. Especially when a lot of the body and organ harvest theories are spread by a California mansion dwelling homophobic cult leader who can totally levitate he just doesn’t have to prove it to you!
You don’t lose credibility for going against the grain, you become a superstar… You just have to have compelling evidence.
All the cases I’ve seen of people who complain about this aren’t being ridiculed for ‘revealing the truth’, but for doing shoddy research and sticking by it.
I had no Idea Orange Julius was a thing until I visited the Philippines and ate at “Orange Brutus” and wondered where they got such a peculiar name from.
In Australia at least we usually use tartar sauce for the fish (shark) and ‘chicken salt’ with maybe some vinegar or soy sauce for the chips.
Best giant prawns (langoustines) I’ve had were on the Isle of Skye (at the Oyster Shed)! They weren’t battered, though.
Haha, I guess it’s not on anybody’s “must visit” list; a real hidden gem.
Maybe we should keep quiet about it… don’t want to attract too many people going to/from neighboring Santorini!
Naxos is a great place! Stayed there for a week by mistake (booking site error) and enjoyed it immensely. Very happy accident.
Call it “Xubmarine 420” and tell him he invented it. I think he’d take that bait.
Yeahh, morning shake is the best.
Took me about a week to get used to this kind of breakfast, from then on it’s been my preferred choice, on the rare occasion I actually eat breakfast these days (AKA when it’s free).
Otaru is a beautiful town! Passed through regularly this year on our way to/from Sapporo. Would love to an extended time there.
How can it be sarong when it feels saright?
Growing up in Fiji my school uniform was a formal sulu (Fijian sarong). Comfy and versatile. Even the police wear them on the job.
Great shot! What time was this taken? I remember taking a similar (but not as good) shot in Helsinki around midnight, which was a very special thing to see, as an Australian who had never seen the sun past 9pm.
Last time I was in Bangalore there was an 80% completed, multi-story downtown building that ‘didn’t exist’.
It’s not the laws that matter, it’s who you know.
