Have you read ‘How to be Perfect’ by Michael Schur yet? The Audiobook even has cameos by most of the cast.

Up vote for the Lazarus Project such a well thought out and interesting premise.

The Middleman. Without a doubt one the funnest comic book series adaptations. Natalie Morales and Matt Keeslar on a ridonkulas romp of silly yet intelligent adventures. Poor show only got 13 episodes but each ones a gem.

And a Hard Boiled Egg

I thought traitors.hell was still federated with the real world? Or did misunderstand the documentation that Dante wrote up?

Ok here's what I do ... but be aware that I've had this same set for about 10 years so I'm sure everyone will bag on it but it works. On my main HTPC (the living room 60" screen) I have run Ubuntu as the background OS and auto open Kodi with the Confluence skin. I've added a few add on's for streaming and an add on that spans a Steam instance in Big Picture for my steam games and an add on for Lutris for other games. Lutris takes a bit of fiddling with to get it to run your games (a lot of set up scripts and downloading runners for emulators, but nothing to bad). I added a MCE remote and a IR receiver to move around in Kodi and attached a couple of Xbox Bluetooth controllers for gaming. I boosted my set up by moving my Kodi database on to my server with mySQL so that the librelec's running in the bedrooms all share the same database but that's a fancy touch that took a hour or so of set up that you don't need to do.

It a saying from Ubuntu (the philosophy not the operating system) “Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu” in English it’s “I am because you are” It’s a simple and concrete way of saying how we’re not judged by how we treat others but we are who we are through our interactions with others.

Honestly I’ve only browsed through a bit of philosophy and I’m sure I missing a heap but it really struck me.

That fascinating. I wonder if it’s a cultural thing or a grammar thing? Most Asian countries have a stereotype of being polite so I’d take a guess at the grammar of Asian languages making it harder to put a mood changing word in a question maybe,

That orange man has never said Please in his entire lifetime

I just looked up please and thank you in ASL and now I know. Thank you.

I actually really like most Parisians the only people in France I found to be rude were those who worked in the tourist areas like the Riviera. But honestly I can’t blame them tourists can be so annoying

 

Ok, Lemmy, let's another play a game!

And I honestly think this one’s more important.

Post how many languages in which you can say Please and Thank You, including your native language. If you can, please provide which languages and how to phonetically say them so the rest of us can learn!

I spent a fair amount of bopping around Europe in the early Aughts and as a native English speaker, I found everyone appreciating my bad mangled attempts at politeness.
