Yeah, I remember seeing some clip of some British science woman and whatever, washing chicken is not only fucking dumv, but a great way to spread bacteria

Came here to point out that "jul" isn't exactly Christmas. It feels weird seeing "julenisse" be translated as "Christmas gnome" knowing the mythos behind the ~~little pyromaniac shitter~~ little buddy.

Yep, that's the plan! When they turn 12, they're on their own. It should be fine because they'll have to hunt and gather their own food by 2.

I don't think rejecting Christmas gifts is on par with telling your parents not to enjoy themselves because you want their money when they die.

I'm going to spend my money and wealth as I see fit. I will not raise my children to bank on me dying before they turn 60 (realistically they're gonna have to deal with me for a long time) so they can inherit some sum of cash.

For context, I never expected any inheritance from either parent when they died. Neither did I get anything except for a pair of gloves.

It's also not even censorship. A private company having a policy is not the same as news papers not being allowed to publish whatever they wish.

But neither that or that it's not a shower thought doesn't matter, capitalism bad.

What? They absolutely massacre the sound, lowers the volume and blocks out anything but the bass. They fit terribly too.

I have a pair of Alpine MusicSafe Pro which I got for $30 for a two day festival. They're night and day compared to anything you can buy at the venue or at a pharmacy. They lower the volume without muffling anything, and allows you to pick how aggressively they should block the sound.

Wow, how convenient for law enforcement and inconvenient for the suspect. Surely that's the guy, it must be with all that incriminating evidence.

I live in northern Sweden, a region which is sparsely populated and mostly forests. We can encounter wildlife on the road regularly, especially when the Sámi move their reindeer herds. The observation of mostly station wagons and occasional Subaru Forester and very rarely an (old, but reasonably sized) pickup is my own.

I remember hearing about it in the mandatory risk training we have to take to get our drivers licence, that if you hit a deer or a moose (they're also very common here) with a car they're meant to roll on the hood and then over the car. But a semi will just hit them dead on, but they've got enough momentum the impact and they're designed to be able to take the blow. Either way, I'd much rather run in to a deer with my Volvo V70/XC70 than a F150.

Meanwhile, everywhere else in the world which has the same dangers, which isn't the US: no manslaughtering penis enlengthernes, just regular station wagons and the occasional Subaru. Curious how that is.

Similar story in our team with 2-15 YoE. We do TS and C# but recently did a hostile takeover of the API from one of our providers which is in python We all now fucking hate python. The codebase is fine, the language isn't.

looks around at countless houses made from wood I guess northern Sweden, which gets below -30°c every year, lost its European status.
