TLDR: standing all day long can be worse than sitting, but alternating standing and sitting positions is very good for your health.

Standing desks have never been promoting standing all day imo, the title is pure clickbait. Standing desks are good for your health, just use them correctly.

Not for screwing/unscrewing but in France we have a satire mnemonic for remembering right and left:

The right hand is the one with the thumb pointing left.

Works only if you look at the back of your hands, and obviously not useful. We use it mainly to mock someone who mix right and left

Good read, I think the practical example of enshittification makes it easier to understand.

I'm not sure we have the same definition of NSFW... I just don't want to see this kind of stuff if I haven't chosen to. The same applies for gore or shocking images, not just sexually explicit content.

Great art but should be tagged NSFW

Edit: wow, I was not aware that the NSFW tag was such a big deal.

Just to clarify: NSFW doesn't mean I cannot refrain from masturbating at what I see, it just means I don't want to see this without first clicking on a blurry image. Everyone has their own sensitivity and it's sad to see not everyone respect that.

I don't want to debate on that all day and I'm not moderating this community (plus, this post comes from one of the moderators so I'm sure they know how to deal with it) so do whatever you want with it.

How do they know they weren't taking off? Maybe they were able to fly without wings!

Awesome fact btw

  • Big endian (a very powerful NPC)
  • Hardware abstraction (a spell that makes all the stuff disappears)
  • Obfuscation (invisibility spell)
  • Multiplexing (ability to cast several spells as one)
  • Dangling reference (when wrong information is given by somebody)
  • Curiously Recurring Template Pattern (basically crop circles)
  • Pure virtual method (anything somebody learned but will never use)
  • Diamond inheritance (when someone in the party dies and all of their money is spread accross the others)

Can you tell what's my job?

I heard a story about a therapist that used RPGs as a tool to diagnose patients. They held group sessions with several patients and then had a private session with each of them to debrief.

I'm convinced a lot of things can reflect on the way people play and make up their character.

I'd say more than 10 years now. Computers evolved a lot more between the 90s and the 00s than between the 00s and now, my old laptop is 10 years old and it's still perfectly running linux, and I hope it will keep running for years.

The problem is more hardware obsolescence, it's a Acer so every part of it is slowly falling apart (keyboard, screen, battery) and OEM parts are impossible to find after all those years. I guess this problem is less important for desktop.
