Factor 66 😈

Proud Dutchman standing next to you, feeling fucking ashamed.

Someone once told me to that words for things that are not traded across linguistic borders exhibit more linguistic diversity (as in, neighbouring countries use completely different words that share no common etymological roots etc.). Butterfly is one key example.

Thanks for pointing this out. The level of misguidedness is painful.

I didn’t know it yet. But it looks interesting. Thanks for the tip.

Does that mean that anonymous loyalty cards don’t really add any extra tracking capabilities?

Then what is the benefit for retailers? That some people don’t use those cards and are thus paying too much?

Thanks. The tall ships look amazing.

I don’t understand why there arent more commercial options around. Aren’t there armies of rich tourists and digital nomads struggling with their CO2 footprints?

Wouldnt it be possible to have WiFi on such tall ships? Wouldnt it be possible for people to work online for some weeks?

Thanks, will have a look. (I guess that scammy social platform found a way back into my life).

Interesting, thanks. What does “fulltime liveaboard crusier” mean? You spend your days sailing the ocean? In sailing boats?

Those are regular cruise ships, right? Yeah no, not interested in that either. Those are incredibly polluting and wasteful things.

No, I basically mean a sailing ship. A ship with sails. I’m curious about the possibilities to cross the Atlantic with no/low CO2 emissions. I have adjusted the title to make this clearer!

How does that work? 🙀

That’s very cool. How does that compare to https://e.foundation/e-os/ ? (That’s what I’m currently running on my phone).

Is there a video?

I read somewhere that within Russia Ukrainian troops would be more vulnerable to the Russian Air Force?

This daddy’s boy ass-twat is not half as brave, knowledgeable, experienced, wise or strong as the people he has imprisoned. And then he uses his own anniversary to “pardon” them. “Pathetic” doesn’t even begin to describe it.

But why is the picture showing the rescue of a small horse?

In that story, sometimes the moon would be so close, that if you would jump on the right moment you would be taken up by its field gravity.

There is a great story about that by the great writer Italo Calvino called ‘the distance of the moon’: https://irenebrination.typepad.com/files/calvino-italo-cosmicomics.pdf
