Pete Complete, in particular his RimWorld series. His voice, relaxed tone and slow pacing with a lot of pause in his speech puts me to sleep even when I’m not trying to.

For the last time, there is no race of ratmen living under the Imperial cities. Ratmen are a myth and do not exist.

Absolutely nothing. Except for a small shelf that’s technically nailed to the wall but it’s painted in the same white as the wall so I’m not sure it counts.

My wife is quite sensitive to noises and my neighbor was often playing bass-heavy music in the evening but rarely late, until one night he played until 3 AM (stopped quickly after we ourselves got to bed so I didn’t go and complain that night.) Next day, I knock on his door asking if he’s the one playing music at 3 AM.

To my surprise, the man apologizes, says he was baked and didn’t realize how loud he was. Adds that if he ever is disturbing us in the future, to come and tell him right away.

Now, we’re surprisingly more tolerant of his musical habits just knowing how polite and apologetic he was about it. So what could have been a rocky start ended up with us being cool.

French speaker here: Began a message over Teams to a coworker with “Hey, salut!” and wrote “Hey, slut!” instead.

I have never edited a message so quickly in my life.

“Do something that you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.”

Bullshit. I worked in the video game industry in a field I’m very passionate about with great people who were all talented. But the industry burned me out and almost killed my passion for games as a hobby with the endless unpaid overtime, constant crunch and deadlines, fairly low wage and all that investment was rewarded by eventually being let go along with all the less senior staff because our studio was bought out and the parent company told to cut expenses.

Don’t work for the video game industry, people. Make indie games by all means. But stay clear of the big names.

Beans, lentils and rice are highly nutritious, can all be eaten cold or at room temperature and won’t spoil if you make them the day before and keep them in a closed Tupperware.

That’s what I do, use uBlock Origin to filter the pop-up. Then most site disable scrolling and that can usually be countered by finding the “overflow: hidden;” and turning it into “overflow: visible;” (you can also use uBlock Origin to inject “overflow: visible !important;” into the page for it to stay persistent.

I like how they made my street a one way street that changes way at each intersection, making it impossible to drive in straight lines. They also keep demolishing ugly concrete roundabouts to then rebuild a similar, just as ugly, vegetation-less concrete roundabout.

I’d make one called “Super Vanilla” It’s like regular vanilla ice cream but the person serving it to you calls you boring and try to interest you in one of their own kinks.

Oh here they just make it increasingly harder to use a car inside the city without a matching increase in public transportation offer and seemingly bank on everyone becoming a cyclist or using these dumb motorized scooters things.

And given how annoying certain cyclists can be (not all of them, but many are) that ain’t looking good.

Yes I wish there was an option to disable lateral swipe controls. The back arrow does the job just fine.

Canned and processed food. Store brand os usually much cheaper and tastes the same if not sometimes better than the big brand names.

Things I want but don’t need like a beer at the store on Friday evening or a tablet of chocolate for the weekend or a game on Steam. So I try to minimize such purchases.

The school computer were running Windows Vista, poor things didn’t need to be messed with.

Total War Warhammer games. I keep starting new campaigns to play all the races and subfactions.

Windows 10 Pro on my main desktop but I do have an old laptop now running Zorin OS Lite which I use mostly when I’m on vacation or taking a long train.

Although the overlap seems to point in that direction (and also the fact that I do enjoy the Witcher books and games very much) it’s rather coincidental:

I actually prefer fully acapella, white-voice songs (but I do enjoy instrumental ones too) And regarding leather I’m more into making gear like chokers, cuffs and whatnot (though I’m not trying to make any money out of it as I don’t sell)
