Or just use bank transfer. It's the same as paying in cash. Do Americans still have to use third parties to send money?

The visuals and action are surprisingly great. Imo all the dialogue is awkward and forced. I don't think it's the acting as much as it's the writing. I'm really hoping it's just because they're trying to cram all the exposition in and the second episode will be better

I've been teaching scratch as an extra curricular for elementary students for a little over a year. I've taught 10 year olds basic algorithm stuff with it (boolean, if/then) and basic game dev patterns (event loop, signal/listener) with some success. I have had no success with 6 year olds (granted my attention was divided) but the nice thing is that they were content to use it as paint and drag sprites around.

Nope! Not at all. I don't think I could find anything even if I tried. I do generally trust OS more than other apps but I feel like I'm taking a risk either way. If it's some niche thing I'm building from a git repo I'll be wary enough to not put my credit card info but that's about it

Daeji Gukbab(돼지국밥)! You get it all over Korea but it's especially famous in Busan where I live. It's pork bone broth with meat served with a few toppings and a bowl of rice on the side. I always order the one with meat, intestines, and blood sausage. It's very rich and savory and comforting. It's also very cheap and often open 24hrs

In Korea there's a brand called No Brand. I like shopping there cause they have a few good deals and western snacks that don't get stocked in normal markets.

I was never good at staying on a diet. I have really bad self control and go through phases where I get hooked on soda or energy drinks or smoking, etc.

Two things helped me finally lose weight and maintain a pretty healthy build (these days 90kg 183cm originally 110-115k).

First, I found I could lose weight in short periods when I had a concrete goal. I lost 10k in maybe 6 weeks. Plenty of it was water weight and came back. But after doing that 3 or 4 times I was down to a place I felt more comfortable with myself. During those cycles I was basically always thinking about my calories. It would get tiring in normal life but it was ok if I was trying to hit my goal.

Second, by focusing on my macros and trying to limit salt every day I ended up filling my stomach way before I went into calorie surplus. By going low sodium it eliminated any kind of fast food and most frozen foods. Getting rid of salt wasn't really for health it was just to lose water weight and hit my goal. But getting rid of salt ended up making my diet way healthier.

I also had some success by cutting out bread. I don't think bread is terrible for you or anything, but by giving myself that limitation I made myself choose better options

I'm guessing this is going to be an unpopular take here. Earlier this year I got a Xiaomi and have had a great experience.

I was getting frustrated with my s10's battery life. I've replaced phone batteries before but always end up cracking the glass shortly after. So this time I spent around 300 usd on a Redmi note 13 pro. It seemed like a hassle to flash but I was able to get rid of all the bloatware via adb. The benchmarks are comparable to the S10 and with my settings the battery easily lasts 2 days (unless I play games). It also has a flat screen and a 3.5mm jack. No Bixby button.

I don't know the security implications of buying a Chinese phone but I have solved all my complaints about my previous Samsung phones by switching.

Ooo that's a big one! I recently got my first god pack

Overall quite nice but nothing I'm currently playing with

Sometimes for a late night snack I'll do a tube of silken tofu with soy sauce and chili oil. Very few calories, a few grams of protein, and it feels kind of nice and refreshing out of the fridge. Basically works with any seasoning too

A bit fiddly for sure. I threaded sewing thread through the stitches in the cast off. It wasn't very secure so I glued the back of the stitches. Not sure if that was the best method but it feels better now 🤷🏻‍♂️

Good to hear it's worked out for you:) this is basically what I landed on after weighing all the comments. If I notice something that makes me think the frame is going to fall apart under me I'll replace it lol but I'm not really in a place to drop a lot of money on a bike now.

Anyway I'm glad I asked because I learned a lot from this thread alone

I'm ambivalent about gold cards but it's nice they're doing cosmetics for the cards that go in every deck. I would love to get a 2 star professor in a future pack too!

The brand is called tragen and the drivetrain is all sunrun. After some googling it seems like a knockoff of a brand called sun race.

I'm just commuting through the city mostly. I figured a mountain bike would be most beginner friendly and good for going over curbs and speed bumps and the like

I downloaded this last night and came back to say thanks! Great so far and it looks like there's a lot more content to get through and fun builds to try
