Whether it be to do your job, get your schoolwork done, clean your house, work on your creative passion, etc....

For me it’s Idiot Wind, curious to know which one moves you.

Bonus points for any books you believe are classics from that time period. Any language, but only fiction please....

For example, I personally can’t listen to Guns and Roses without immediately thinking “that Axl sure is an asshole”, and that sours the entire experience.

I’m thinking anchor for space elevator

Most are probably too young to remember but nanotechnology was supposed to be the most super amazing thing ever.

I was looking at an old thread about “patsocs” and I saw the following comment, which I believe to be true - I have written this in a rush so sorry for any mistakes. EDIT: I was asked what the question was, so tl;dr it would be: is the threat of patsoc, particularly the “MAGA communism” development a significant threat...

And what did you do about it?

Hi lemmys! My next door neighbour is driving me crazy. They started at 10:30AM and you can hear them through closed doors and windows, and two brick walls. They have enough brain cells to understand “turn it down”. Any ideas to deal/screw with them?...

At first, I didn’t payed too much attention, but then they started hammering the walls. For what I understand, when building a house you need to make your own walls and don’t use...

Looking to develop my skills in order to get a foot in the door on a new career path but unsure where exactly to proceed, so would appreciate a good counselor suggestions if you’ve had a positive experience with them. Ideally someone who specializes in the state of things globally, not just in America.

EDIT : I am using pipepipe which is a really good client for youtube without ads and bullshit but with added features like downloading anything, beyter search etc. Adding this because a comment told me the downvotes were because it feels like i’m seeking ads ....

The kind of game you daydream about while at school or work because you can’t wait to come home and play some more.

I love all the ritualized behaviour, secret meanings and unexpected taboos - standing up when someone of higher status stands, elaborate rules for serving and eating, tapping the table to thank the server, never refuse a toast from a superior, stuff like that....

Let me be extremely clear that I am not a homewrecker and have never condoned infidelity. This married man is senior to me at work but not my direct boss. We recently worked on a project together for months and had many phone calls for at least an hour, sometimes almost two, nearly all initiated by him. It was mostly about work...
