  Lol oops didn’t click that link. But yes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nissan develops paint that keeps cars cool in summer heat⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You ever seen that curved building that focused the sunlight into a spot in front of it and melted cars? Lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Close call⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh yeah they have a bunch of merch but luckily not too many funko stuff. I got some mugs from there.

  It’s sad news though, can’t do digital second hand games or borrow one from a friend.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Close call⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I suppose. Discounted nintendo games is nice though, those are almost never discounted. Plus the old games they sell are fun. Digging through old ds games and such.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Close call⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well for now they do. They sell a bunch of merch too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Close call⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For a discount on a new game? I while ago I bought a ps4 for a friend and just got a bunch of second hand games from that store. All common ones but I saved a bunch of money that way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Close call⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I talked to someone working at a game store (gamemania in the Netherlands). The stores also buy and sell second hand games. I commented on the amount of fifa games on the shelves and they told me the storage in the back just has massive stacks of every fifa game of the last 10 years or so. Apparently they will literally buy every functioning game you want to sell them.

  The chain is also close to bankruptcy, probably not related. But it’s a shame because I really do like walking through them and looking through the games they have. They actually have xbox360, wii and ps3 games on shelves.

  I print warhammer for friends for money. So that plus the money I saved on models for myself, I’d say it’s worth it.

  But it’s also a hobby, learning how the things work and how to model is a lot of fun!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kids and their computers these days.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So where I live if you have a disease, physical or mental, you go to a doctor and they decide if you’re ok to drive or if you need to pass an extra test first where you are judged if you’re able to drive safely with whatever disabilities you have. This is besides the standard driving test and written test. Also everybody has to take lessons with a professional.

  It’s however not perfect because the government doesn’t have access to your medical records (which is good). But that means you have to be honest on a form about your disabilities. Plus the doctor visit is not covered by insurance and costs around 200 euros.

  Beautiful piece of music.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do other languages have similar acronyms to 'tbh', 'imo', 'smh', etc?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah it’s odd. Nobody says S’il vous plaît but we do say svp out loud.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do other languages have similar acronyms to 'tbh', 'imo', 'smh', etc?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I speak Dutch, reading Danish is a trip. Dat wil zeggen -> det vil sige. And yes we use dwz.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨World's largest sodium-ion battery goes into operation - Energy Storage⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hopefully we can soon get one as home batteries to extend the use of solar panels. Because I don’t feel great about having a lithium battery that large in my house

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Part of this complete breakfast!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Etc

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Tech to EU: "Drop Dead"⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  We know, the EU also told meta to behave. Meta then threatened to leave and everyone was like “ok, when?”. Because we’ll just switch to the next best thing. So meta behaved. Sort of, it’s an ongoing thing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Geography is neat⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The one with Belgium and the Netherlands has a park around it with a large maze, a watchtower and playgrounds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Someone call the PETA folk⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Tell me when you figure it out because rust (the game) is also on there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Someone call the PETA folk⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And corsair

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Real!⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean only in English is the term Dutch used for the Netherlands. It’s a really old thing from around the 1500’s that stuck around.

  Also that’s the flag of Luxembourg.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sphere making machine (found)⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Literally polishing a turd. Mythbusters did it, it can be done.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Best ergonomic/vertical mouse for FPS gaming?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I use an MX and I have arthritis. It’s one of the few mice I can use for a long time without my hands hurting.

  Also play borderlands, get weapon that shoots as fast as you can pull the trigger, set fire to scroll wheel and blast your way through hordes of enemies with free scroll lol.

  Odo just becomes a cart.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google maps adding sponsored detours⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Does waze have a fuel saving mode? It might be sending you down an exit because the route uses less fuel. I doubt waze and google maps has enough users to cause too much traffic. Surely most people drive familiar routes. I could be wrong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Star Trek Resurgence Giveaway⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Never played any star trek games as a kid. Honestly the only one I played is bridge crew and it’s awesome. Every once in a while I drum up some friends and we play it. It’s a blast!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which slicer do you use⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Prusaslicer. For resin I combine it with UVtools

  That’s a lot of calculations but that’s roughly what my thermometer says in my enclosure yeah.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People not from English-speaking countries, was it possible to watch cartoons in English subbed?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Cartoons for kids are usually dubbed though. I say for kids because stuff like the simpsons and rick and morty is still just subbed.
