Does anyone ever actually click on an ad? Like "hey thats cool I wanna check it out/buy it right here right now"?

I have adblockers active everywhere and only disable then somtimes for specific sites that really don't work otherwise, but even if the unlikely case would come up that something is interesting I would just look it up separately? Mostly I just turn a blind eye on them anyway, but just wondering, some people gotta really click/buy from these ads? It just seems so surreal to me..

Annie are you okay?

No idea how and why but my dad once had a cable like that in his workshop.

Short story: we were having a party, bit drunk and wanted power for the bigger speakers, needed an extension, rummaged around and found this one. Of course didn't check the ends, plugged it in and then thought "oh what a weird male adapter there, lets take it...bzzzzt".

Have a tiny burn scar on my hand now, luckily nothing else happened. The cable got dismantled afterwards, but I still don't know why it was there in the first place, he is a pretty good handyman normally.

I am just baffled by how many people pay idiotic prices with "life just got more expensive, what are you gonna do"

If people happily keep buying all the overpriced shit it's just gonna get worse..

I think its a thing here in norway as well. Thats why they just increase the price in early october, just a month ahead of black week bullcrap. Have seen plenty of electronics "super discounted" to the same price they had in september/october

if your running windows you'll still have to put up with Microsoft

Luckily, there is another choice. Linux runs pretty smooth and has gotten much simpler to use over the years.

"Gutmensch" als Beschimpfung zu verwenden sagt halt schon viel über so Leute aus..

Also gaining in nordic countries, even though people say "our rightwing isn't that rightwing" 🙃

Living in Norway, it always strikes me how disgusting smoking still is, even outside, when i go to central europe. You get completely unused to the amount of smoke and stink e.g. outside of stores

Deinen freien Willen kannst du dir sonst wohin stecken, wenn du damit den freien Willen anderer maßgeblich einschränkst. Z.B. in dem du viel zu schnell fährst und dadurch andere gefährdest, durch den Lärm störst, oder im schlimmsten Fall beim Unfall umbringst.

Eigentlich ein einfaches Prizip, der freie Wille zählt halt nicht nur für dich selbst. Aber da müsste man ja an andre Menschen denken, wo kommen wir denn da hin...

It confused me a bit when reading the Mistborn series. Wtf is aluminum and why have i never heard of that? Do they just call Aluminium differently because of story reasons? Did i miss something? Are the other metals correct?

Good books tho

20min of sun daily?! crysinscandinavian

1$ to be sure to get an interview? Doesnt even sound that bad? A small fee for a guaranteed interview, rather than hoping 1 in 20 even replies, sounds fine..

I hate when i do that and they still refuse to answer more than one

Doesn't sound bad tbh..i like savory waffles. Don't sugar the dough (no idea if thats a thing, just guessing) and you are good to go

Maybe it’s the Austrians 🤷

He, don't slander. Thats not the kind of thing going on in Austrian cellars

I can relate to both of them, depending on the time of day/night

Or, you know, use another OS

Note: if you somehow manage to uninstall system packages you can't reinstall those (afaik). At least i ended up having to reset the phone twice while setting up and trying to change the default camera app. Not the worst on a new phone i guess.
