I remember using mumble in a time when smartphones weren't even a thing yet. Love to see the open source tool outlive everything else!

I'd argue that it may not happen for individuals. But our DNA? Our culture? Or knowledge? I'm pretty sure these things will travel the stars one day.

The Dutch royal family has exactly one job: poster child. So, yeah. That is literally the idea here. Unify by setting an example.

Since google is blocked, google maps is also blocked. Hence, make sure to have a good alternative available. Bing maps, Apple maps, or OSM.

My guess is that he is a DnD player that has to flash out the background of his character, so the DM can start using characters from his background.

With Dirt Rally, you get a pretty damn good simulation experience for a fraction of the cost, a minimal time investment, and zero of the risks. All you need is a PC and a decent steeringwheel.

I started dancing 2 years ago in my early 30s. Salsa/bachata specifically. Never danced a step before then (or at least: not while sober). After a 2 years of practise, I now regularly get compliments at the festivals/parties, and the ladies at the dance school like it when I'm joining the lessons, since I can lead well. I'm still no expert, but I certainly get a lot of joy from it. And for the record: I'm a slightly overweight nerd who is certainly not nimble or agile. I also hate rythm games, I suck at those, but dancing on the beat is so much easier!

My point is: it's worth trying. Find a dance school that teaches salsa and/or bachata, and go for it. If you find the right people, you will stay motivated, and it gets more and more fun!

There is one conversion that I use every now and then: liter to kilo: A liter of water weighs about a kilo.

Helpful to compare groceries when some products use weight and others volume. For example, I can buy 1kg buckets of yoghurt. I then know that those buckets hold about 1 liter. Handy when re-using the buckets.

He has been prime minister for long enough to know exactly how little the European leaders will care about his Trump appeasements.

I still think that Rutte is the perfect guy for this role, now that we have to deal with Trump. Able to change position while shrugging of any hypocrasy, as slimy as your steriotypical politician, and plenty of experience.

To be fair, joining the Russian army does make planning the rest of your life a lot easier.

I'm more confused on how drinking gas works. Gas is something I breath in, rather than drink.

Yeah, this one is just messed up. They use binary to display the individual characters of a decimal number. This makes it wayyy harder to read than a proper binary clock.
