The Three Body Problem. I hated it, but I think I’m in the minority. I found the Cultural Revolution parts interesting, and the tech /cultural infiltration neat, but most of the book I hated. Could not care less about these beef jerky bastards.

I’ve no doubt; I’m just teasing!

I don’t know shit about shit, but I really want to see your WIP and finished pics! This sounds like an awesome project.

TBF, nothing was running the display when you took the pictures!

What mechanism did you use to get there. Just a work visa? Any path to eventual residency or citizenship?

I think we are one of the larger servers so we just have a more visible share than smaller instances. Our admins are pretty on top of complaints about users.

Are they a horse?

I think they used to be famous for spinning out in corners because they didn’t have much electronic help and tend to have inexperienced drivers. The newer corvettes are much more modern.

Good idea. I haven’t played a game in ages, and when I do it’s an old favorite.

I update almost every post and comment I see. I only very rarely downvote on purpose but because my app lets me swipe to vote, sometimes I swipe incorrectly.

A friend set me up on a blindish date with one of his coworkers. She never showed!

Blindish because I used to hang out at their restaurant all the time so she presumably knew who I was.

Excellent user name.

Seems much more likely to me that it’s expensive because it’s a grift. The funds raised have no relation to the cost of the work, and represent lobbying efforts by a wide range of big business interests. Plus Trump probably thinks that being expensive makes it better.

What consequences? That they won’t win this year either?

Oh, you mean the EBU probably. One of the Big 5 leaving is really something. I can’t imagine Spain leaving the EBU itself though.

You can also hear the difference between crispy and crunchy! And how full a bottle is of water as you fill it!

I think it rings several sighted people simultaneously to speed up the connection. Twice it’s rung but I was not able to pick up, once I was too slow and the other I just wasn’t available. Super frustrating because I was really looking forward to it.

Hopefully now that I’ve answered a call I get prioritized somehow.

Looks more like an ant than a coffee shop to me.

Very cute! Great expression.

I’d never heard that! So you might be able to see it from very close, or only in peripheral vision or something? That’s great.

I’ve been logged in for years, and I just got my first call last week! I was so excited. Lady’s laundry machine had stopped with the clothes still wet, and I read off the dial settings and LEDs to determine why it had stopped the cycle and what to do. Took about 5 min.

I picked up eight feet of composite quarter round molding for $6 and a recessed light replacement part for $12. Had a productive Saturday.
