Fines are just a tax on criminals.

Photography. I bought a second hand camera body, a couple of adapters and have been building up a roster of cheap old 70s-80s lenses. I can bring my camera whenever I go out, or go on more specific photography walks. It makes me look at things more closely, and therefore enjoy them more.

Whenever I’ve brought my camera to events and gatherings, the response has been very positive and people really enjoy the photos being “artistic” and “dream-like” (on account of the imperfect vintage lenses and my often poor manual focusing).

It’s been a fun journey of discovering what lenses I most enjoy using. For me it’s been either 40-45mm for walking around snapshots or 180-200mm for portraiture.

Maybe I’ll get some more modern gear some day, but then I’ll know exactly what I want, and have the skill to use it to the fullest.

Is this one of those “believe someone because of their gender regardless of the evidence” arguments? That kind of thinking is dangerous and sexist.

Of course they have benefits. Depending on the situation of course. I wouldn’t put one in my computer, but I sure as shit have one in my home with a kid running around. Turns out a fan with all the heavy spinning hardware stuff in it’s base is less likely to fall over than one with all that stuff up on top. Honestly all my Dyson stuff work fucking great for their intended purpose.

Paying the absolute minimal amount for something isn’t necessary the goal of life. You’re not a corporation.

Child mutilating cultists should be put in camps, not for extermination, but for deprogramming.

Would be a shame if a “malfunctioning” “AI” air traffic controller directed his plane into a tanker truck “mistakenly” left on the runway.

NK and China are garbage shitholes pretending to be civilised.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted for being right. They can’t shoot for shit either.

They promoted the slop-machine with “Scandinavian apartment” didn’t they?

Yes. It’s a clear sign that someone is… well, slow.

Having a cult revolving around being ancestors descendants of a long dead culture wasn’t great when the Nazis did it either.

Corporations will always commit crimes as long as shareholders can’t be held responsible.

She kinda looks like she has downs syndrome or something like that.

Same 😑 stuck using a dumb Microslop keyboard with trackpad to control my media center.

Dishwashers generally use cold water hand heats it to the required temperature inside the machine for the cleaning cycle, then uses cold water for rinse cycle. Imagine it like washing 15+ plates and cutlery under the tap, but at the same time. A fully loaded dishwasher will always be more efficient than doing the same amount of dishes manually.

A dishwasher generally use less water than running dishes under the tap.

Easy if you don’t cook much.

I’ve noticed my style morphing more and more into a tourist stereotype since becoming a father. Cargo shorts, buckethat and carrying a camera everywhere. Luckily my city is less up its own ass about tourism.

This had made many people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
