We need an "ftfy bot" that puts the censored words back in full. These scribbled and other self-corrected words are so annoying.

My first thought is going for walks around where you live. If there are green spaces along the way that's even better. You can turn it into kind of a workout where you do longer and longer walks, or the same length but a little faster each time.

It's a good way to clear your mind, it also never hurts to be active.

There's "Well there's your problem". In each episode, the hosts break down an engineering disaster. The episodes are one to several hours long each, and they are thorough, entertaining, and you learn a ton.

There's also a video version that contains slides with pictures and graphs.

I would suggest as a starter episode 139, The impossible railroad, which I thought was a fun one. Or 146 on the Mount Everest, that was eye-opening. Those are the recent ones that stand out to me.

The night before December 6th, children leaves their shoes on front of the chimney, along with a glass of milk and a carrot for Saint-Nicholas and his donkey (other countries say it's a horse, but it's a donkey for us).

Saint-Nicholas leaves a bunch (like, a lot) of candy and toys during the night for children to find when they wake up.

Traditional treats include speculoos, chocolate coins, nuts, clementines and "guimauve" (like marshmallows but a little less soft, in the shape of clogs or religious figures, sometimes chocolate-covered).

Also, on Easter, children will find eggs in their backyard. They are dropped by "the bells". The story is that the bells of Rome fly across Europe and drop eggs along the way (see this postcard). So when the children are done finding all the eggs, they shout "THANK YOU BELLS".

I have a pendant which is made of a tiny piece of Campo Del Cielo meteorite. It's several billion years old (4.5 according to wiki).

Genuinely curious: how do you kill 48,000 birds? That's such a large number.

Very insightful was the moment the lawyer walked to the back of the room and asked the witness how many fingers he was holding up.

p5js.org. It is a beginner-friendly website for creating stuff in JavaScript straight into a browser. They also have resources and tutorials. After trying to learn coding for a long time, this is the place where it finally clicked for me.

No, you're supposed to replace the letter, not add it, so "fin"

Thank you!

It was so much better than Gmail

Stray. I have been wanting to play it for a while and it's currently on sale.

The environment is pure eye candy to me.

Pizza is love.

Then I would definitely advise against checking out temarikai.com as it totally does not contain all the information you need to get started.

Also Inkscape for Illustrator

Small curved hexagon, got it

So really it should be pronounced "jfeg"

Yes it starts with a core made of fabric scraps, and then wrapped in thinner and thinner yarn and then finally thread.

I would say making the ball itself takes me about an evening, and then several hours for marking and embroidery. I usually make these in short sessions and I finish one in a week or two.

You're the hero we don't deserve <3
