Why isn't this as easy as storing some of that excess energy in a home battery and letting the rest down in a wire into the ground? Then if it's smart enough it could only give back energy when needed.

Had to look it up as well, but apparently it is how you type "hoe" in a calculator upside down..

I crave for some kind of religion and I want it to be real, I think I was made for it genetically. My core being tries to find meaning in everything, every story, every feeling, the connection with others. Therefore I understand that desire.

But I just can't take the bullshit when I think about it rationally. The lack of doubt people have in any of their beliefs and the kind of certainty they support their imagined traditions and Gods with. It's insane.

Finding a meaningful life feels natural, but the only truth I have is that I cannot believe anything for certain. So all religion becomes a complete mindtrap for people who use it to sooth themselves.

And that is fine, I get it. I get that you don't want to question it as that's harder and makes life more chaotic. And I also feel some envy for people who are able to not care (as much) about uncertainty. But good for them.

The only thing is, keep those ideas to yourself and your community and accept others for not being able to commit to your story. My story and all my beliefs are probably also flawed, but that doubt is a healthy way to accept that others have different ideas.

Aren't there like cheat servers and non-cheat servers? Or is that a "gentleman's agreement" that not everyone is playing fair with if you can't fully block it because of mods etc?

This is the first time I realize that this famous image was not "designed" to simulate what a stroke feels like visually, it was just serendipity. They were probably just really trying to generate an image of a living room, but the AI image generators were still in its infancy.

Ik vond dit wel een goeie breakdown; iemand nog tegenargumenten of bepaalde missende details?

Wat ik me kan voorstellen is dat als je "enkel" een huis erft dat je dan opgezadeld wordt met belasting die je niet kunt betalen tot je het huis hebt verkocht; en als dat dan een slecht onderhouden geval is levert dat wellicht veel gedoe.

Verder kan ik me niet zo veel problemen indenken met verhoging van de erfbelasting. Jaarlijks gradueel verhogen lijkt me netjes, zodat mensen niet op 1 januari net vergeleken met de buurman op 31 december fors "buiten de boot vissen", om teveel gezeur van jan/alleman te voorkomen.

Lunch is my favourite. Nothing beats a fine sandwich with cheese.

I agree. the only thing that we can say scientifically is that someone has a specific amount of traits we have associated with the social label 'woman'. These traits are biologically speaking primarily related to reproduction and which role one would be able to fulfill the most effectively. Which does leave room for being able to fulfill both reproductive roles in some way or another.

Our social needs to mark ourselves and others as one of the two is deeply ingrained, but as it's such a grey area under the hood it would make sense to have a more fluid relationship with the topic.

Plus a footrub.. is quite something as a first. I mean, what happened to asking someone out for a drink for starters.

For this exact purpose. To impress your ex? Sounds fair enough.
