Short term, yeah I constantly forget people’s names. If they’ve been part of my life for a bit, their name gets stored in my long term memory and I’ll remember it forever.

This is the first light hearted “story” that came to mind: I was in the UK last year (Cornwall) in May. We were driving through some towns and we came by a farm that sold duck eggs at the road side. It was one of those “give as much as you want” stands where they relied on good faith, because it was unmanned. We initially wanted to eat the duck eggs, but after some Googling we found out that these eggs have great odds of being fertilized! So instead of eating the three duck eggs, we put them in the refrigerator for the remainder of our trip to the UK. We did this so we could put the eggs under a heat lamp (we have chickens).

Well surprise surprise, all three of them actually hatched! So now we have two Peking ducks and one Swedish black duck! Honestly, they’re so funny and their personalities are great. We recently “celebrated” their first birthday lmao. Anyway, I’ll add a picture as duck tax (with bonus cat) :D

The Dramatics - Whatcha See is Whatcha Get has been stuck in my head for a few days now. But I don’t mind, because it’s a great song haha

If you like darksynth, Perturbator. His Dangerous Days album slaps.

Andreas Babler, a Marxist who has described the EU as a worse military alliance than NATO

What a strange comparison to make. Of course a world wide military alliance with many countries would be “better” than one that doesn’t even have all the countries of one continent? Anyway, I hope he will do some good for Austria.

I’m reading The Bible for Dummies now lol. I wasn’t raised religiously, but I do find it important to have knowledge about other people’s beliefs. It analyses the bible, but before that it gives you a very good idea of the origin of Christianity and how it’s linked to other Abrahamistic religions. Would recommend if you’re interested in learning about religion.

Installing PipeWire is what made it work for me. It has much better bluetooth codec support than PulseAudio.

I guess you can fit the Borderlands franchise in this category? It’s post apocalyptic, an FPS and story driven. It can also get quite technical if you want to get deep into character builds. Other than that there’s Bioshock. Let me know if you’d like some lesser known games if you’ve played these already.

Here to vouch for KDEnlive! Works great in my experience.

I’m from the Netherlands and I don’t use a bike 100% of the time either of course. I’ll ride it for any commute under 10 km that doesn’t require me to transport any large or heavy items, though. I’m fortunate enough to have a work place within cycling distance, so I’d estimate I use my bike about 70% of the time I need to go somewhere. Needless to say, this lowers my carbon output quite significantly compared to using a car.
