I miss the old Yahoo games site where during night shift you could play Canasta with probably some retired folks from the other side of the world

I use a Kindle, but never bought a single book from them. I mostly use their transfer method for convenience instead of looking for a cable. As for books, I downloaded a few gigs of ebooks in html/RTF/doc format well before e-ink was invented, and use those with calibre to convert to epub. Pdfs are rather suboptimal for ebooks.
I happen to rarely read recently published books, so I paid for an ebook a single time. In a series of eight books, each of them had an appendix saying “this file was formatted on purpose for torrenting. The estimated cost of producing the book is roughly 5.27$. If you liked it here’s my bank account and my website if you’d like to buy the book on paper”.
Can you elaborate on that? Honestly I’m not very familiar with the guy except the name, and the news articles were obviously mostly positive
One suggestion in the old days was to stick a nail in an apple for a while and then eat it. The apple of course. Without the nail
Yeah. Way worse that the cup thing or the Japanese eel stuff or the others. That crap still haunts me
Wait, in the last thread it was a bank
Maybe. We had one of that too, but didn’t use it too much either
But… Isn’t that standard equipment in every household?
I don’t think you can make up these kind of things
I think this was it https://reddit.com/r/confessions/s/cJFm6eRXMi (it’s not for a weak heart)
The guy with the scat fetish that disappeared the moment his wish started to come true
There’s a hedgehog in the garden. BUT IT’S NOT THEIR ONE!
Thanks, that somehow never got in the news here
Did I miss something from the news? Why is a field hospital needed in Libya?
I know only one case where this shrinkflation thing was stopped - one beer company decided to sell 0.4l cans, because “that’s what the customers want”. It turned out pretty fast that wasn’t what their customers wanted :)
While that’s true, we still have for example safe air travel, although I’m pretty sure companies would be happy to ship their passengers minced to maximize their profit.
Also, thorium reactors would be a great step forward, unfortunately its byproducts can’t be used for nuclear weapons, so their development was pretty slowed down.
My best guess is hemorrhoid followup - what would you do, ask your neighbor to look and comment on your butt?
My wife loves that show, I was never able to fathom why it is so interesting to watch people being frustrated in you free time. Cooking should be so about fun and love, don’t shout with my food, please.
Don’t know those, also, stopped doing night shifts (mostly) :)
