hahaha, that's solid

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

yikes, never heard of that. thanks, I'll go look it up.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 week ago

oh, no, sorry, haha.

I've been living abroad for a very long time.

If you are a native English speaker, you can be saving a couple grand per month in a few weeks if you don't have a passport yet or start tomorrow if you do have a passport.

there are thousands of ESL jobs that will pay you an absolute minimum of $2,000 us a month working 25 hours a week in countries where the cost of living is less than $500 a month, but the quality of life is the same or better than the states.

you can get out of all the politics shit, go live a real life, and make a bunch of money doing it while doing good in the world helping students realize their potential and provide them with greater opportunities, and being an unofficial cultural ambassador, as far as you want to bridge the cultural gap between countries.

If you have any questions, I love talking about this stuff.

ohhhh boy, lemmy demographics kicking in, half an hour in with this as the first response.

I thought of die antwoord first, which is surprising and probably not correct but that's my first answer.

I think they're music videos have a lot to do with that, those really helped me lock into their songs.

I definitely like the zef vibe

you a native English speaker?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

wow, thanks for sharing, that's awesome

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (4 children)

everything's isn't; youre probably standing in a cespool and haven't taken a step in any direction to get out of it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

yea, it is nice that the devs are so dedicated to creating unique clients for us

and their work itself is so impressive.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

me too on boost!

boost was the only way i used reddit, nothing else came close.

I can't tell what's different in the implementation here, but it does not click.

jerboa for lemmy is the closest to the simplicity I enjoyed in boost for reddit, and I do think summit merits another look in a month or two

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (4 children)

the dev seems very dedicated, that's why I'll give summit another try later. quick links don't work yet, not all the setting toggles l are functionally tied yet to the features. there are also several tiny post/link/layout issues that I notice but don't have to deal with on jerboa.

I'm interested to see where summit goes, it is the only other lemmy client I used for more than a couple hours.

 

Just curious since it seems so much easier and less stressful during any election cycle to fill out a form and mail it in during your free time.

 

there are certain things I want to be out of the loop of, anything to do with him seems good.

I'm looking for mobile solutions specifically.

thank you very much

 

i like watching "making-of" or "behind-the-scenes" featurettes and documentaries about the behind the scenes machinations of movie making, but in terms of literature, I'm not sure what to look for if i want to learn about the process Martha wells went through to conceive the murderbot diaries, for example.

i can search for making-of The Matrix and find documentaries, but not making-of project hail Mary and find similar literary results.

is there a section of literature like this?

should i be reading annotated editions?

thanks

 

I used to take screenshots of the picture I wanted to use as wallpaper, but then Android stopped that from working, and now I have to manually add a giant border to make the screenshots fit the arbitrary fiant wallpaper size on the Android screen.

any normal screenshot I take is blown way oversized, is there any way to simply make a screenshot my wallpaper yet on Android?

it seems crazy that this is still so complicated years later on Android, am I missing something?

Thanks for any help

 

the car models can be whatever, I'm just curious if anyone is dressing up their cheap cars as expensive ones or if this is an industry yet?

is there a legal hurdle?

is there a limit to car decision in general?

is this sort of car case business already a thing?

 

Also, thank you for posting and commenting and making such an exciting community thrive!

 

Update: thank you everyone! user @Today has provided a great link of a discussion that suggests the correct answer is where being an abbreviation of, whereas as a replacement of since, hypothesized in these comments.

As I love archaic definitions, I'm more convinced to now that this is the answer!

Especially since the question originates from one weirdo using "where" instead of since.
https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/338694/is-it-ever-appropriate-to-use-where-instead-of-because-or-since


Like "Where we knew he was heading to Chicago tomorrow, we got on the first plane heading east to intercept."

"Where we knew where the safe was, we began to cut through the wall in the corner behind her desk."

Thanks

 

This is the first I've heard of it, but here's one of his infamous quotes:

"There is a trait in the Jewish character that does provoke animosity, maybe it’s a kind of lack of generosity towards non-Jews.

I mean, there’s always a reason why anti-anything crops up anywhere; even a stinker like Hitler didn’t just pick on them for no reason.”

His other quotes tend to be condemnation about specifically Israeli zionism and barbaric murder, but i don't have context as to whether he's referring to palestine or not. Some people might have more sympathy for these statements these days, but a lot of his other quotes have to do with Jews controlling money and media, less defensible prejudice.

 

I haven't met anyone yet who does and I haven't read any good endorsements about foldable phones but I keep seeing advertisement for foldable phones.

Thanks

I have one from a band called Massie that says "you work hard, I'll be sexy".

Makes me laugh every time.

I also have a t-shirt with a purple teddy bear under a paragraph of text telling a nihilist horror story in broken english about that teddy bear as if he were a real person.

Both winners.

 

Very weird that I am so old and have literally never heard this mentioned in a TV show or book or movie or anything.

In four out of five states, if you go to prison, you are literally paying for the time you spend there.

As you can guess, this results in crippling debt as soon as you're released.

The county gets back a fraction of what they hold over your head the rest of your life until you commit suicide(or die naturally and peacefully with the sword of damocles hanging over your head).

$20-$80 a day according to Rutgers.

Counties apparently sue people and employ wage garnishment to get back the money that majority of people obviously cannot pay back.
