Came here for the biscuits
Wait a minute, what?
I've been to a few cities all over Europe, lived in a couple of them for years, and I feel like having a general knowledge of the geography of where you live is a basic requirement of life.
Didn't you play the "capital city game" with friends as a kid?
I mean, it's cool with me if you or anyone has no idea of the layout of your local map, but that's a surprise for sure.
THIS is why I came to Lemmy in the first place. Thrilling.
I have a kid, so I needed to think this through before teaching it. I ended up teaching the kid that you would need to look everywhere at all times, but that would require having eyes everywhere, right? So you just start looking in the direction where cars could come first, and then you keep looking rightleftrightleft until you crossed the damn street
Hey that's a quality life changing hack right here. Food is the most important thing with sleep.
Would you have a list of those base meals maybe ?
@dephyre mentionned refried beans with rice in the thread. @DeltaTangoLima responded with bottled (canned) pasta sauce. I'd say learn how to make ratatouille and store (can) some when you can get the ingredient (green bell pepper, zucchinis, eggplan, tomatoes) at the right time of the year.
A proverb.
Because your examples are actual proverbs, that might be considered true or not, depending on who says it when.
I guess we are witnessing a form of metamorphosis of Lemmy. The Stroganov is us proving we can really get wildly absurd over something utterly benign.
I'm so happy to be here. It's 6.30, my day is on the right tracks.
En passant par là, j'ai vu le pion noir se faire manger.
MOAAAR
I don't want to stray from OP's question, but as it's already been answered: have you guys read the following paper on pre-fart gas re-entering the blood stream through the colon's wall?

This is a very important topic
To the moon!
Invidious from France
So good to hear! Well done
I finally installed RethinkDNS on my phone. I configured redirections to invidious and other alternative front-ends on firefox, desktop but also mobile thanks to the recent update. I stopped appending "!g" to all my duckduckgo searches. And i got so addicted to a new social network that I quit all others LOOKING AT YOU LEMMY
While passing through, I notice this post, and I thought: MOAR!
Also picture resolution is going to be the first limit hit.
Voilà ! My first great piece of advice found on Lemmy! So thankful for this, and for witnessing the sudden growth of a great community here on Lemmy <3
I'll always remember watching "The Last Samurai" thrice on the same flight just to kill time...
Although the best is handheld video games. A week gives you enough time to buy a cheap retro-gaming thing that'll make the 12 hours disappear!
"On va manger des chips !"
Oooowkay! So sorry for my surprised comment. I totally get, and agree with, what you actually said.
Being from not-the-capital-city of my country but living there, I struggled with the uttermost self-centeredness of its inhabitants.
I do think knowing topology and geography of things and places is much more than basic general information. For me it relates to "feeling" a place, and belonging somewhere. But what do I care where the upper east whatever is...
Also, culture production might have something to do with all of this : An open letter to NYC - The Beastie Boys
Exactly! And I keep sending them strangenlooking links that spark conversations on open source, surveillance capitalism and emancipation
leboncoin.fr I'm in France. It's our local craigslist.
Oh sorry I completely misunderstood indeed. I have no locks on my phone, not even screenlock.
Techno-shamanism! I made a dream-catcher made from some plates.
