Back in the 90ies my uncle always got a book for the car hee owned which would explain how to disassemble it.

But me and my dad never bothered with the book, just got to work on it and figured it out on the go. The biggest thing I replaced in my car was the whole Chassis.

But yeah in the new cars there is less mechanical stuff and more electronics so it’s getting difficult.

The only place I can think off was YouTube, or if you can find a book like my uncle always had: https://onlymanuals.com/volkswagen/passat/volkswagen_passat_b3_workshop_manual_passat_b3

Perhaps it’s time to find better hobbies? It’s a chore and difficult because you don’t know what you like/don’t like before you try it for some time.

Independent of finding girls it’s also good for your own psyche to get away from the screen. And if it has to be gaming perhaps you can find people who are into board games?

Yes, but I guess you need to have luck in the dating game independent of what method you use. Somehow in the end it’s a time and numbers game.

Yeah, that’ll be difficult then …

No, the only international one I knew which was Tinder.

It depends. For years I had either no or bad matches at home, always the same people showing up there, etc…

But then one day while on a business trip abroad I installed a new app, payed the fee (for some reason, normally I never did) and matched with the most amazing person who made me move half way across the globe for her and now almost four years later we still live together, have a 1.5 years old son and plan finally to marry (there were some practical problems we had to fix first).

For me it worked out, but that’s survival bias I guess.

Venture capital.

Oh for real, I had to throw it away after one year and I got a used ThinkPad instead.

If I’m honest I have no idea what would be a open ended question. I asked yesterday how people learned a new language because I’m struggling with it and wanted to see how other people do it. But that doesn’t seem like a open ended question and would not be allowed?

Interesting, actually I basically never go to McDonalds, so I didn’t realize it.

McRib

I’m just a vehicle to my genes which they use to travel to the future. They only can travel when they have a suitable host who can reproduce them and can make sure that the next version has the best chances to reproduce again. So over time natural selection optimized for the vehicles to want to reproduce. Everyone who didn’t have the desire to have kids in the past has none (other than rape victims) to move their genes forward.

Anyway this is a extreme oversimplification of the whole idea of The Selfish Gene

Having kids, that is the only way my genes can live on. But even having step or adopted kids is preferable.

It just brings so much joy as nothing else.

I think it is.

- better integration with PeerTube
- keyword filters

But it doesn’t have an API for 3rd parties

Which is not a problem if you’re into old ladies.

I’ve been working with many Indians remotely who were in India and on site in Sweden and Germany. None of them ever said anything like you describe, most of them were very humble and hard working. Sadly often they would just keep their head down and work into the wrong direction sometimes for a long time not reaching out to others.

But if I’m honest, the people from India were as diverse as any other group of people. From very religious from small villages to atheists from rich families. The division between them was bigger then between them as a individual and me a European. They didn’t even speak the same language and had to use English.

The only software through my servers have ever been owned by scriptkiddies were poorly written PHP software, specifically WordPress in my case.

It’s just a personal preference because I’ve been burned too many times.

Sadly I couldn’t figure it out. It seems it’s something with the database for sure but what exactly I don’t know.

Arch a video, I wish someone would just list those 3 reasons as text here ^^

I would go with syncthing, it uses far fewer resources, is rock solid and out of your way.
