Very cool!

Has anyone tried this yet?

And was wondering where this would work, is there a list of places that are supported?

I have a combination of green/gray/blue. I’ll see if I can take a photo later.

Hahaha also blue but waaaay more scary!

I think most countries with their own sesame street have slightly different characters. We don’t have big bird, we have the superior Pino.

Where I’m from credit cards aren’t really a thing (they exist obviously but I think people mainly use them when on holiday elsewhere or when buying flights or something since often the card will have some sort of insurance).

Anyway, I was wondering what you use/used your credit card for to get so much debt? Not shaming you in the slightest, just curious since I don’t even own a credit card. And what is the interest on it? Do you pay interest every month? What happens if you can’t pay?

Just curious about the logistics of cc debt. I hear it from stories from the US all the same but don’t understand how it really works.

That’s numberwang!

Oh nice thanks for sharing the video! I made up the part where the trickster mates with the female, but the first part was true!

It is real. And I think it continues with this snake pretending to be a female so many males try to mate with him, thereby warming him up and allowing him to sneak in and mate with an actual female snake join the mating frenzy

It’s just pushing and turning. There’s no buttons on it or anything.

I have one (though only for boiling water, not cold/filtered) and it’s really not difficult or complicated. I have friends with kids who have one and they know how to use it.

I have this, instant boiling water from the tap!

Better late than never, right?

Gast pleur echt heel hard op met zulke comments. Op wie wil je dan dat Amerikanen gaan stemmen? Je krijgt maar twee opties. Dan maar de minst slechte. Als we in Nederland zouden moeten kiezen tussen D66 en PVV dan toch veel liever D66?

So yeah “things” are shittier, because nowadays we have the ability to live in a nearly post-scarcity society but we just don’t wanna.

Humankind could have been living in blissful peace for centuries. We’ve always had the ability to not kill each other or fight for resources. But many people, then and now, don’t want that.

The way civilizations/empires/countries have operated has largely been competitive. It’s naive to think we’ll all just come together and solve these very complicated problems.

Saying that people are stupid or racist… I don’t think that barely has anything to do with what prevents all major countries of the world to work together to combat things like disease, climate change, inequality, etc.

How do you define “things”?

On a global scale and on average, life for humans is getting significantly better than, say, a century ago. The number of people dying from preventable diseases, war, natural disasters has been steadily going down for a while now.

Of course there are many more people on earth than there were 100 years ago, so accumulatively there is a lot more suffering now.

Also, the lives of individual people, the state of certain countries and areas are certainly getting worse.

As for non-human animals… For most of them the world is getting increasingly less habitable and for those who are raised in an industrial setting for human consumption, living conditions are largely atrocious.

I think your question is too broad for a single answer. But you might be interested in this now 17 year old (!) TED talk by the late Hans Rosling, which at least partially answers your question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVimVzgtD6w

Around 2004 we had some people over for a card game night. We were all sitting on our house’s big terrace, where we had also put this type of lamp. The terrace was open to the outside and the lamp attracted a large amount of bugs, which would burn and start to smell, the same smell you are remembering.

To stop this from happening, my brother decided to put a kind of glass plate on top of the lamp as a cover. Initially this worked great and the smell was gone.

10 minutes later, the glass had gotten so hot that it exploded violently, shooting shards of glass all across the terrace. It was a lesson learned.

and “killing the baby”, you mean like later in life to eat?

At least in the Netherlands, the species of dairy cows are focused on dairy. If a bull is born it is raised for about half a year, then slaughtered and most often the meat is exported since calf meat isn’t popular here.

At that point they are basically still babies, or at least the meat is called “calf meat”.

I used ‘reader mode’, or whatever it’s called, on Firefox and that worked well.

But your lifestyle does impact how likely it is you die from covid. Poorer Trump voters are probably more likely to have a relatively unhealthy lifestyle; maybe more likely to smoke, perhaps less likely to do exercise, perhaps older? And I’m fairly certain that Republican voters are less likely to be vaccinated against covid.

Not sure what your point was exactly, but wanted to point out people absolutely did not die at the same rate across the board and political affiliation (and therefore the likelihood of being vaccinated) could definitely be a factor.
