“Hog potential” should go on the report card, next to attendance and teacher’s comments.

Worst thing about the 90s is that I didn’t appreciate them enough when I had them. Please come back.

Yeah, that’s a pretty cunty comment. You might not be a cunt every day, but today you are.

- Comment on 32-year-old programmer in China allegedly dies from overwork, added to work group chat even while in hospital 1 week ago:
It could be a play on words based on the root verb 切る (cut). 切ろ死 (kiroshi) could then mean something like “cut to death”, a very reassuring name for a surgical implant corporation.

Known as 過労死 (karoshi) in Japan, sadly not a new concept. This is the result of the misconception that working harder will yield better results - it only leads to stagnation and ruin. Hoping that more people will realise this and initiate some change in the work culture; not only in Asia, but in the West too… The work culture in both the US, UK and many parts of the EU needs some serious overhaul.

You need some culture. Start with the works of Paolo Eleuteri Serpieri, master of the perfect backside.

Follow-up question: when will the world’s most heavily-armed populace decide that enough is enough and start shooting their oppressors instead of eachother?

OP was talking about the Elixir of Vigor. You are talking about the Elixir of the Gods. They are not the same.

It still boggles my mind that Americans believe this is normal.
- Comment on A mural drawn by artist: Topsy depicting Alex Pretti trying to protect Lady Justice from ICE. 2 weeks ago:
Banksy features heavily shaded stencil and realistic depiction of the human body and faces. Topsy has a more cartoon-like style, with unshaded fine line art. Two different things.

No, it’s by Topsy. Also, the style isn’t even similar to Banksy’s

That’s because according to Christopher Nolan, the audio system in your home cinema setup or local cinema setup isn’t worthy. He took audiophile snobbery to the next level. I love most of his films, but he needs to allow the sound engineers to master the audio so that it works for everyone.

Ummm, the features you described are all in Vivaldi. Browser engine is Blink (Chromium). My experience with it has been that it’s very fast and stable. I’ve used Opera since about version 6. My nostalgia is real.

Used to work in subtitling, we love these goofs. Especially because it shows that no matter how timely our subtitles are delivered and how well they conform to specs, the broadcaster will always find a way to mess it up.

The developers who wanted to keep the original philosophy of Opera alive moved on and formed Vivaldi instead. I recommend you try it. It certainly gave me a nostalgic sense of what Opera used to be, and has a lot of useful new features.

Yeah, not going down that road again, one time 19 years ago was enough. Oh god, why did I check how long ago that was…

Neoguri ramyun is good. Spicy, but not crazy spicy like a lot of the stuff from Buldak. My wife prefers it with a half bag of spice mix, I dump in the whole bag for myself. Top with some spring onions, spam or leftover roast chicken, shredded cheese and maybe some mushrooms. Nice as a treat, but we try not to make it a habit. It’s a lot of salt and additives.
- Comment on I can't be the only one who learned this the hard way 4 weeks ago:
Probably a bit of both

Buldak is pain, Lee curry is anguish. The latter is from Glico (Japanese). I shared a portion with my wife 15 years ago, and still remember. The horror… The horror…

- Comment on I have an idea ☝️ 1 month ago:
There’s actually more than enough resources to go around, but enormous amounts are lost to waste, corruption, inequality and greed. The world isn’t actually overpopulated, but over-urbanized. If it was made more feasible for people to live in the districts, more decentralised and with less waste of resources, human society would look very different.
- Comment on It's kind of funny how many late 90s games had at least one drum and bass track 1 month ago:
I’ve noticed on the radio that drum & bass is making a sneaky comeback. Usually not entire songs, but some modern songs will have a bridge or finale with a clear drum & bass beat. I like how younger people creating this music must’ve gone: “wow this ancient form of music has a sick beat, it’ll be cool in my song”. Same way as 90’s music often has references to disco.
