Some people look so young like they haven’t even fucked their own parents yet. Always better to ask for official government documentation before serving them alcohol

I’m calling bullshit on any user count they release. The site was filled with bots even when I still used it. People kept complaining about “karma farmers” as if there were users who repost popular content. It has always been largely Reddit’s own bots too keep new users entertained and recycle popular content so that it reaches as many users as possible. They turned this up to 11 before going public.

Now that they no longer provide an API, they are free to make up any fake metric they want to try to pump up their worthless stock.

Turn the lights on. Purple is not a good look

We need it for IPv6. Don’t hate

Obligatory reference: talkies are movies with talking, movies are pictures which move

Not sure if I could fully agree with the root cause analysis, but it sounds about right for Europe as a whole. Things are likely still mostly as their were, with additional steps and reduced demand

He’s lying. 42 is a secret code that refers to letters of the alphabet. It’s the fourth and second letter: DB

DB is a hidden operation in Germany. It’s a large secret society that moves huge metal objects of unknown purpose through the country. Some people have created schedules that indicate where in the country the vessels are expected to be seen - but when you arrive on site, nothing ever happens.

At this point nobody is sure what goal DB is after, but many people assume it’s to confuse and frustrate Germans to death.

I’m not making this up. DB is on Wikipedia.

While that is true and reflected in the article data, it doesn’t contradict what I said. Just in case it was meant to 😄

Yes people still buy Russian energy, some countries more than ever, sometimes through third parties, but total consumption is down.

Because it’s clickbait framing. Total imports from Russia are at their lowest point ever. The USA just dropped below Russia in the rankings.

I wasn’t actively aware of this for most of my life until I recently visited a clients office. Buying someone a cup of coffee is an entire thing. There’s no free coffee. You have to purchase every single cup. And you first have to walk several minutes to the place where they sell the coffee. It blew my mind. I’m used to drinking one cup after the other without even giving it any thought. Coffee machine right next to me or around the corner. There, coffee incurs friction and cost.

So when you invite someone for a cup of free coffee, this can open doors for you. I’m not kidding. People get all excited when you offer them a coffee break on your dime. And there’s levels to it too. There’s the regular coffee, and there’s the premium one. For the premium you have to walk longer and wait in line until the barista serves you.

It’s a key component in office politics when coffee access is regulated.

Why anyone would restrict access to legal stimulants in the office is unclear to me though. Put espresso machines on every desk!

Google results are tailored to the user. This is almost never good advice
