I have not. Is it worth watching?

I used to think like the OP/image, but now I'm in your camp. You should absolutely eat things you don't enjoy if they are good for you. But bad pizza crust is just punishing your mouth while gaining weight.
I understand the food waste argument, but it's wasted whether you eat it or not. You're wasting just as much if you don't eat the peel of the banana.
I am personally familiar with that kind of pirate and I definitely appreciate what they do.
Maybe I should cross-post to AskHistory? I'm not looking for anything specific, really more hoping to learn some things while giving Lemmy users a chance to dump info they find interesting.
I will watch all of these. Thanks!
How much evidence do we have for this? I want to believe it since it's my favorite fact so far, which means I should be extra cautious before believing it.
I loved the show, but never would have guessed it was based on reality. Great facts!
I suppose these are a bit less practical now that bolt cutters are so accessible.
I know some people didn't like it, but I thought the resolution to the monorail riddle contest was genius (or technically the opposite). Very satisfying.
In the US? It's never ever going to happen. Even if we had a 100% Democrat Congress it'd never make it through. It would do three things that would individually each be political suicide:
- Topple a 1.6 trillion dollar health insurance industry, including rich lobbyists
- Put over 500,000 people out of work (even if some could be hired into a government-led program)
- Remove the main threat employers use against their employees.
Sure, it would massively reduce costs both individually and overall, and it'd improve the overall health of the US, and it would likely be better for the economy, but I have given up any hope it'll ever happen. It's too entrenched. It would be like erasing the oil lobby or the military industrial complex.
I was thinking the exact same thing. The weird length makes it feel menacing.
I agree. Several authors and editors I follow have recommended using 'said' and 'asked' for the majority of your writing. They are basically invisible to readers; just subconscious tags at this point. Using different words in every sentence is distracting.
My son is obsessed with Mario LEGO and had his own little table in the corner of the LEGO room. It was overflowing and my wife hated how messy it looked. While she was away for a few days I made this.
Two partial sheets of 3/4" birch plywood with French cleats attached, painted white, were mounted on the walls. Then the desk just slots into the second-lowest cleat, using the bottom cleat as support.
As he grows we can raise the desk a couple times, eventually bringing it up to 29" from the ground which is about regular desk height.
I also made a few shelves and a box for him to organize with out of the plywood scrap.
He likes that he can rearrange his storage as he pleases. I made a couple more medium-sized shelves that aren't pictured, and I may someday make a corner triangular shelf for Bowser to sit on.

Any mod recommendations for a 5 year old? He's got a laptop with Debian on it and I'd like to set him up with MineTest, but I'm not sure he can handle the full MineClonia experience.
