Auf Deutsch heißt es nicht “MRT”, sondern auch “MRI”, ja? Ich spreche Englisch und Ich habe keine Ahnung. Entschuldigung wenn das dir Witz ist

Not just the area south - basically all the area in between the two cities. And yeah, it’s basically like saying “once you’re out of the cities, you might as well be in Kentucky.”

Damn I’m stealing that

Okay, I’ve never even heard of a Dalgona before, and that sounds incredible. Like somewhere basically incredible hot chocolate is the default coffee

Also use it around your co-workers and peers who have children and would recognize it when you want to really get under their skin, it’s skibidi sigma on cap

Nah that’s rizzler shit on God sigma 10k

This sounds delicious. Where is here so I can be there?

My first character was a “muppet-born” named Ché-Elmo, who interacted with the group over video chat directly (a hand-puppet Elmo with a red star cap was all they saw and heard), and was a Warlock who had made a pact with the being Carl Marx in exchange for power. His tome of power was Das Kapital, which I’d have him leaf through while we played.

He went missing a few years ago; it’s my belief that he’s out there now in some other dimension still sticking it to every merchant he encounters.

I do this for the same reasons - and also, snooze emails until two weeks before an event, then a week before the event, then a few days before the day of the event in order to keep reminding myself it’s going to happen.

That’s most of what we do today.

Every web app you use right now - which is most of your day for most users - is just a dumb terminal UI hitting some API on some foreign computer.

Plan 9 uses the file system as a way of interacting with apis. Linux took this idea directly by copying in the/proc filesystem from 9, which are not bytes on a disk but are instead the kernel presenting its running processes in the format of files and directories in your file namespace, and with which you can interact to control those processes.

It also took this idea and created FUSE - file systems in user space - so that you can do the same thing on Linux as a user, but with not quite the same ease you have on plan 9 - and notably, fuse file systems are not naturally network file systems, and so you can’t export them as easily to the network as you can with nine machines, where it’s implicit.

Last, Linux took the idea of per-process namespaces from 9, setting the stage for all of the docker, snap, etc. tools we use today.

In short, a lot of nine already is mainstream because it’s been adopted by Linux. However, using plan 9 and then returning back to Linux feels like putting on bulky gloves, because Linux did not start with these concepts in mind, but bolted them on after.

Grab the pills when you get a chance. The whole milk only has enough vitamin d to offset the amount used by your body to use the calcium in the milk, so it’s net zero additional vitamin d in your diet to drink fortified vitamin D milk. If you’re like me, you’ll feel a significant difference.

A negative income tax system has the same incentive as our current bracketed tax system to earn more money: for every dollar you earn, even if a higher percentage gets taken out on that next dollar, you still have more money now.

It just shifts our brackets down so that you get “negatively taxed” - given money - for the lowest brackets of income. But a person making $100k would still be given say $15k for the first $10k of their income, $5k for next $10k, taxed at 9% for the next $10k, 20% the following $10k, so on and so forth - so that every dollar they make still means more money in their pocket, it’s just a percentage less for the additional dollars as they move brackets. Considering that’s already how it works, it seems no incentive changes would arise for high earners.

This is the “Negative Income Tax”, popularized by famously conservative Federal Reserve chair Milton Friedman as the approach to community support that best meshed with supply/demand.

Oh neat - TIL “garçon” is considered rude and outdated for referring to a waiter, and the polite term is serveur/uesse. Thanks!
