Mexico City needs this badly. It would be beautiful if it wasn't for the smog and noise of traffic.

My partner convinced me to use the Starbucks app for incentives. Unsurprisingly within months, the company doubled the points requirements for all rewards. I now have a dollar and change held hostage on it, but refuse to keep topping it up.

I once lent my copy to a friend of a friend prone to conspiratorial thinking, who professed to be open-minded and interested in my viewpoint. A few years later, after many reminders, he returned it to me. I asked him what he thought of it.

Why do they link it to stress and not to the virus? Personally, I still deal with major digestive issues, primarily acid and silent reflux, after getting really sick from the second vaccination. (I'm not ruling out that I could have ca

I recently discovered Tinker WriterDeck OS ( https://tinker.sh/ ), which I’d been meaning to try, but this sounds like an even easier solution for repurposing old laptops and writing without distraction.

I desperately want to do this type of walking, but I live in a major city. There’s always something to distract me, which is great for boredom perhaps, but ruins any sense of zen or reflection. I would say half of every walk involves people

I was reading a Reddit thread on this, and not a single person there understood this. It isn’t good news, but it’s being severely misinterpreted.

Yeah, wealth can be a great boon for developing talent. It's annoying for the rest of us peasants, but talent is talent.... A rich kid may lack a hard-knock life, which is great fodder for writing. But, she or he may be privately tutor

I wouldn't say PKD is gravitas. He is often funny and has a workingman prose. Gibson, yes. Though, I find his later works, like Peripheral, less stylized and serious.

I barely remember 2049. I remember so much of the original. Ridley Scott and team created the world from scratch and mastered the atmosphere. 2049 is very good, but it's basically a requel.

It love it. For the hell of it, I looked at the Chinese translation offered in the nav. I can’t read Chinese, so I wonder what someone who can read it thinks, but it looks very cluttered to me. (I know font options are very limited compared

The first Evil Dead 2 poster is weirding me out because it looks just like it was made by early Dalle-2/HuggingFace AI.

Odd plan. The invasion is at, what, ~500k casualties? This also assumes massive assimilation.

I loved Suikoden 1 & 2 as a kid. I had no idea it was considered such a great. I couldn't talk to anyone about it then. Final Fantasy 7 soon took over the landscape. I wonder if it still holds up.

In a better world, if every country agreed not to destroy each other for a decade and applied their defense budgets, it's doable. Global defense budget is approximately 2.2 trillion as of 2022, according to Statista. Granted, that woul

Are you still finding clients for static websites and Wordpress? I got out of that game six years ago and am considering getting back in as a side-hustle. It seems though that most of that freelance work has dried up.

You are being downvoted because it’s obvious that a cabal of hyper intelligent dogs fits the full body of evidence better than any other explanation.

I commend this person for his capacity to write under such duress and depression. I have experienced my own tragedies over the years and during such times I can only escape.

Funny I agree with you on everything but the Momoa part. With the exception of Game of Thrones, he always plays himself. He basically always comes off as a marvel character. I thought he and Chalamet were miscast.

I predict AI will make virtual reality finally take off, and it will open new worlds. I don’t really know what that will mean for humanity, culture, and the economy.
