Here in China it’s basically nothing. They don’t even have to greet you. They only do the formal stuff with people they need to be chummy with. Sad but true.

I’m an expat here, and it applies not just towards me but to any Chinese-Chinese new acquaintances.

Japan was totally opposite and awesome, bowing to an old lady and getting into conversation with her was one of the most memorable experiences for me.

I tried to use Calc and whatever the PPT one is called and both were incredibly laggy, even when I tweaked the hardware settings. And then there was a bizarre weird thing or two like the insert symbols not working in ribbon view.

And ribbon view didn’t really improve the fast response I need, like being able to type 5cm scaled for huge image, instead I would still need to open the settings and do many clicks for the same result.

So I just stick to that old 2007 office I still use. Oh gosh, did I mention the crashes yet?

Probably didn’t blow due to him flooding the air with gas, barely any oxygen left I bet.

One Bunsen burner though…

That’s the MAC address isn’t it? It’s possible to use a random MAC address but apparently that only works with random MAC enabled WiFi networks.

This is one movie that needs 4K. It’s like a giant art canvas.

I mean, even if this song was coming from a human it’d be derivative, boring, and worthless.

Quite a lot of music pumped out by labels is.

Sugar and fat gives your digestion a double whammy.

So you browse crap on the internet instead of dealing with your own crap?

(Shittr is an app)

Don’t forget his charisma. He probably has a few hundred views by now.

Basically any organised crime is full of NDAs so by this point, definitely unenforceable.

And Dune seems to be more of a commentary these days

And stuff like meat getting stuck leads to pain in the gums and a nasty odour which is indeed rotting meat. Definitely getting that out!

Nyaaaaaa! You want to sail again? 😉

Not surprising, it was a superb series with enough twists and turns to keep it going for a few seasons.

Yeah way!

Make sure you know location of diapers, wet tissues, milk, bottles and method of warming milk and extra clothes. Check diaper regularly, especially if they start grunting or screwing up their face. Usually they’ll pong straight away. Get them to drink water regularly (they don’t have the habit yet) and see if they want warm milk every couple of hours. A bath is entertaining but be prepared for more prep with towel, more clothes and talcum powder and whatever. And weather permitting they might not want to stay wet for long.

My WiFi just is unable to connect sometimes and the troubleshooter fails. Useless.

Used to be Heinz but now they’ve replaced tomato with more brown sugar or something so it tastes bland.

Yeah seems so, it’s pretty ok though. It tracks what is new and your mentions so it’s vaguely like a messaging app instead of IRC.

As well as Pons_Aelius’s input, who I think I have quoted before in another post 🤣, I reckon your body is out of balance in many other factors too, hence sports drinks can help pump electrolytes into your system, your gut isn’t too happy, and you could be genuinely lacking water. Alcohol is a poison which - paraphrasing Pons - is probably high on the priority list for your liver while the rest of your body deals with the injustice it was served.

I just found via my previous comments that I built on pons pov in the entangled particles post. Funny running into a Lemmy user again.
