sinkingship

Unfortunately my hardware is too old to play games that are like that.

But I've noticed the same with mobile games. My policy is: if that single player game doesn't start without internet access it gets deleted.

I disagree. I live in mosquito land and get bitten a lot. I'd say the majority of mosquitos biting me, I feel when they land, before they bite. Probably half of those I can either slap or miss and they take off again and try again. There are some spots though where I don't feel them land. The annoying ones are those I feel touching me but they don't land, they just fly around. Those are hard to slap.

Unrelated question: does anybody happen to know if the biting time matters for transmitting disease?

2 mosquitos died on me while typing out this comment.

I actually thought this was a police tool for breaking in doors.

So according to comments it's a post driver. So far I dug holes and put my poles in. This tool seems practical for soft soil, but what do you do when living somewhere with rocky soil or with dry clay soil?

I'm not from the US. Is it really his choice? I thought it would be more democratic and the party members would vote for who they run, how they run, etc?

Edit 2: I think I got it now. Please let me know in case it doesn't work.

Maybe they are different. I live in Asia. From what I heard there are many mosquito species, but the majority not blood sucking or at least not human blood sucking. Only few species carry disease, if I recall correctly.

To be fair, when I'm preoccupied, I also don't feel them always. Or I feel them but my hands are busy, so I can't slap them. I often have this at night, when I'm playing PC games and my feet get stung up. It'll be like "ouch, my foot! Gotta slap that mosquito, but first I finish this in game. And then this." Procrastinating until it's too late.

I believe ankles are prime for them due to thin skin.

One mosquito died, writing this comment.

I hope I just had bad experience, but I have the aqua with backlight. About 2 years in, the display got terrible; hardly any contrast, especially in the edges. About 3 years in, the rubber buttons just crumbled away; so no more waterproof.

Can't read anyways anymore, the contrast by now is like egg white on snow white. Didn't mistreat, it was always stored dry and in no direct sunlight.

Mike Patton has the most versatile voice and music styles from all artists I know. In this song he sounds a little like Axl Rose. In others he growls the wildest metal and after that he sings operetta.

These diverse genre styles mixed with an incredible tone range owned by a hard working dude, singing with many bands and at the same time not being afraid of testing borders and being experimental, is something very unique.

I actually think Mike Patton's work is underrated.

Ah thanks! So you use thin metal posts. I still use self cut wood like a caveman and whack the shit out of other things.

Thank you for the detailed explanation!

I see. Yes I watched the debate and he really didn't do well, like he was on some medicine and partly asleep. My favorite part was when they discussed who is better at golf. Was a very important thing to get clear for people like me, that are worried of climate collapse.

But this isn't new to Biden, is it? Confusing names and numbers has always been a Biden thing, I think, it's not necessarily a health decline. Like my favorite American president quote is "America is a nation that can be defined in a single word: ashofootnae ehfoot, excuse me, at the foothills in the Himalaya..."

That's why I thought the democrats had a meeting after the debate and saw that Biden's campaign is not going well and the public thinks (doesn't matter if rightfully or not) Biden is too old and mentally declining. Maybe, in order to save the sinking ship, it's best to play a rather risky move of changing the nomine just a few months before election. Or maybe he was also peer pressured.

Anyway, if it was Biden's initiative he does deserve a lot of respect for it!

I would go even further and say that the perception of the voters outweighs reality.

I use mosquito coils, they are very effective.

I also have an electric bat, although it's more for the phycho fun of killing than helping reducing bites. They are just too many.

I tried lemongrass as a natural deterrent but had the impression it made no difference.

What works best for me is: slapping those you can while not caring about the rest. Because once you start to scratch it's a vicious cycle, so I don't touch stings and usually then forget about them shortly after.

I know you're right, have read it elsewhere before. But I can't figure out why that would happen. I doubt Earth is loosing mass. Does the moon slow down over time due to impacts or what causes this?

It propably grabbed the info off some random number-confusing dude like me, who recently posted the Earth's diameter would be about 6 km instead of 6000.

Edit: oops, did it again. Meant radius, not diameter...

If it had a stable orbit before and then slowed down, I thought it'll get a more elliptical orbit, being both closer and further, or fall into Earth.

My logic was that a stable orbit closer to the center needs higher speeds to counter higher gravity and vice versa.

So if the moon would get hit in a way that makes it slow down and get pushed further away from Earth at the same time, it could keep a roundish orbit, or not?

What's with that specific timeframe? Is it due to the orbit never being perfect? Or random slight influences from other not too far, heavy objects?

Thanks for the explanation, the moon being a little fast for it's orbit and therefore slowly spiraling out of Earths gravity makes sense to me now.

Sorry, I am not from the US. So this guy consumed porn. And what? Relax people!

Might sound weird to prude people, but most politicians had sex before! Some may have kinks! Why do people care about other people's sex life, if they aren't attracted to them?

And what has this to do with a community called politics? I don't get it.

Edit: wow, many replies! Thank you all for educating. If this man is saying people shouldn't consume porn, then yes, you are all right and it's a controversy that makes sense to shine some light on. I didn't think about that.
