I mean, I live in a nice apartment and I still don’t enjoy density, living in the city with kids sucks in many ways. Im not sure I would enjoy suburbia that much more, especially if it means taking a hit on expenses. When I buy a house, I don’t want neighbours in spitting distance of me, which is why I will be looking something outside of the city, ideally without a neighbour within 500, if not 1000m of my house.

My money is on it being a rental

Plants absolutely use green light for photosynthesis and do it quite well.

THE ACTION SPECTRUM, ABSORPTANCE AND QUANTUM YIELD OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS IN CROP PLANTS

Green Light Drives Leaf Photosynthesis More Efficiently than Red Light in Strong White Light: Revisiting the Enigmatic Question of Why Leaves are Green

Green light is in fact absorbed at a rate of 80-90%, and it penetrates much deeper than red or blue. Comparison

But like, 3.5 to usbc is a 10 buck conversion. Tbh i see merit in double usb c over usbc and headphone jack, might be more doable too, the DAC prolly takes more space than an additional usbc

Just reading that gave me a headache. In Latvia, heres how the system works.

If you have no deductible spending (medical, education, donations).:

• Log into the govt system.
• Press a button to generate tax form.
• Press verify and submit.
• Pay what you owe or wait for the tax return.

If you have deductible info

• As before but also scan your receipts, and add the info on each receipt to the form. Can done easily via an app, which handily (sometimes correctly) can autofill the needed info. You can do this at any point in time, so you can do it whenever you get a deductible receipt.

Depends on the types of commutes you do and where you are.

For kindergarden to work, for me, car and public is basically equal, but it is like 7km. If it is a carshare / rental car then I will end up slower because finding a spot to park is pain, this of course is negated if it were my car since Id have (paid btw at my last employer) employee parking.

It would of course be easier and faster to get the kinds to kindergarden via car, but this is a 15 min walking distance we are talking here.

There are tradeoffs, but ultimately I choose transit and just grab a rental if I actually need a car, which is rare. Mind you I live in the city and the moment I move to a house outside of the city I am getting a car.

I have to say I prefer transit, no stress, no thinking about times and routes, I can read a book, study or just meditate. Not to mention that the costs are sooo much lower. In the city I travel all month for 15 euros.

French press as stated and aeropress will give you the most consistency across grind sizes. But a burr grinder is the most important piece of equipment for coffee. I was sceptical uuntil i got one. Surely the difference isn’t that big? Boy was I wrong.

Consider a hand grinder, even something cheap like a Harrio annoying as it is to use, it is passable at like 20 bucks. It was my first grinder, it did the job, but adjusting the settings is limited and annoying and it took forever to grind a cup, I quickly bought a Mignon Chrono.

If this isn’t an option, then maybe consider buying preground in smaller batches from a local place? The place I order my beans from offers to send them ground in a couple of generic preset sizes.

But the problem is not only the quality of supermarket coffee, and the preset grind size, it is also that ground beans will oxidise much more quickly and even when vacuum sealed, the moment you open the bag it will start to deteriorate and quickly. I would possibly even consider a blade grinder over buying pre-ground coffee, especially supermarket coffee.

Teach me the non-sweaty ways. I love my bike, but theres no way I can arrive not sweaty. Before you say go slow, I’m not letting no bus take my god-damn glory.

I actually opened it in safari just to see, but it did not seem like it managed to, at least on iOS.

This site has the most infuriating privacy popup I have ever seen, theres a tab for 1400 partner consents. Like what?

One of the main reasons I stuck with YouTube Music is that I find the algorhitms superior to spotify. Maybe this is placebo, but I think between the 7 mixes + discovery + artist / song radio I always have something that does not feel the same, and I feel like any intentionally searched listening updates the mixes fairly quickly.

He asked for four, two main and two backup. Of those one backup was non-functioning and the other was supposedly possibly by him to carry the money.

He asked for two sets specifically to imply a hostage might be jumping with him, to negate the option of parachute tampering.

So did you even read or just copy articles where the title agrees with you? The first one is “according to google”. The only article i saw crop up on google use the term derogatory(as per the article) to describe woo-woo was on medium, talking about how it makes people who believe in the supersticious and paranormal feel bad (much like the second article you linked). If you actually read them, you would see there is only one negative implication in the first article, and it is not in the origins of the word but in the “message” of “western superiority”, because god forbid we actually ask people to back up their claims.

Where is the racist connection then? Maybe just look up the origins of the word on the dictionary and admit you are spouting bullshit?

What koolaid are you sipping? Woo-woo, even in the dictionaries is supposed to refer to sci-fi / ghost sounds. Give me one decent quote to say woo-woo is racist.
