Not including work devices - probably my old university files. I intentionally wrote about topics relevant to the career I wanted (which I now have) and they’re genuinely useful for going back and referring to.

Fair enough. Well hopefully it helps some Europeans out! I only noticed it by accident because I sit by the back toilets due to IBS anyway.
Edit: I’ve done this with easyJet, Wizzair and Vueling - for reference
I always buy an aisle seat so I can stretch my legs and get up whenever I need.
I’ve also learned that most airlines (at least here in Europe) fill their seats from the front back. So if you sit near the back and keep an eye on the back row, sometimes it’s completely unoccupied. In which case I move there and can practically lie down.
Eh. I find it difficult to have any sympathy for Valve. Sounds like it was only a matter of time before someone did this. If anything this is just free marketing.
In fairness, this isn’t massively new and I was taught similar back when I was in school. It was genuinely a really good life skill to teach to kids and it was politically neutral.
I went to a state school in the UK and remember being taught media literacy, this would’ve been just over 10 years ago now. I don’t know if it was part of the curriculum or just something they decided to add (while it was a state school, it was a very good one in a wealthy area).
We were told to read headlines and guess what the story was about, then we were shown a neutral article that objectively described what happened to highlight how misleading the headlines and pictures were. Among other things, but that sticks out in my mind.
I honestly think it was a fantastic life skill to teach.

It was neither the stabbing nor the vigil.
It’s uneducated white thugs who have been told for years that immigrants and Muslims are the reason they’re struggling.
I do. Comments like his are actively contributing towards the racist violent disorder taking place right now. It’s disgusting.
Well he’s saying that according to his sweet old nana the basis of whether you’re attracted to men is if you want to suck dick, and I presume his grandmother is straight. Therefore, his grandmother wants to suck dick.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. This quote is JD Vance publicly stating that he knows his grandmother is straight because she wants to suck dicks. That is a WEIRD thing to say.
They get incurable cancer
You could equally say that the javelin is restricting throwing, and that javeline athletes can only perform in their specific area. Like yeah - no shit. It’s a sport. It’s like looking at darts and saying “it’d be better if they fired them from a crossbow at 200m”. Like okay yeah maybe you’d find that more entertaining but that would be a different sport which you’re welcome to go enjoy.
Because more power is required to reach the distances where everything matters more.
I’m not even sure what that means. Why does it “matter more”? Those in the athletic field of shooting have decided that this is best for a recreational shooting competition. Same as every other sport in the Olympics. Go watch something else if it doesn’t interest you, doesn’t make the sport bad or the athletes less talented.
Uh-huh. Do I really need to explain how one degree of error is a bigger issue at 1000 meters vs 50?
No shit. But if everyone is shooting from the same distance then it’s a level playing field so it doesn’t matter and it’s still a valid competition. There are different skills for different types of weapons and ranges.
When OP is implying my tribe can’t shoot I take it as disrespect and I’m compelled to belittle the competition itself in response.
It’s a meme about the notoriously gun crazy country coming last in shooting. It’s not that deep. And let’s not even get into “my tribe” haha
What do you mean? Why is more power in the equipment being used automatically better? Shooting is a test of accuracy. I’m sorry you see sports through such a boring lens but most of us don’t. And in any case, that’s just your opinion of what you are more entertained by - there’s no need to disparage the sport and disrespect the athletes just because you’re not personally interested in it.
Wrong colour immigrant
May one shoelace be permanently tighter than the other just enough to be annoying.
I’m not in an appropriate position mentally for a relationship. One day I want to settle down and do the whole wife/kids thing but now’s not the time to get into anything.
Like every single olympic sport can only be performed in a very specific and particular set of circumstances. What is this bizarre gatekeeping?
Hahahaha why aren’t you in the bloody Olympics then if it’s that easy?
Isn’t that kinda the whole point of them? I’m more surprised they hadn’t done so already.
