ah, so the first plus the second knot are forming one of those two you linked to?

All my life, I was tying the knot “wrong side up”, so it was untying. I was checking out a videonon how to tie high boots the easiest way, and the problem was mentioned. Now nothing ever happens to them.
It’s hard to explain in details, so here’s a quick check if your shoes are untying themselves. When you start tying, you hold two loops in your hands and cross them, putting one above the other, right? Well, this time, put them the other way around (left on right if it was right on left), and finish the same way you always did it.
You will immediately feel that the knot is not slipping. This is because you also do the first simple knot in a certain way, and first and the main knot has to be different relative to each other

Kias beep when you turn without signals, but you still can do that. And if you’re on adaptive cruise and you break, it just turns it off. So it doesn’t dorce you to turn, not turn, or to keep going if you break. And it saved me already - I was angry on my gps and didn’t watch the road for 20 seconds. the highway started turning quicte sharply, the car beeped and yanked the steering wheel to the left so to keep me from running into the guard on the side.

Don’t worry, it’s all bullshit. Kia Ceen SW '22:

• keeps you in lane, but if you try to sharply turn, it will let you, you will feel a bit of resistance, but barely on a “notice it’s against it” level. If you turn the blinker on, zero resistance.
• there is an auto near-far lights system, but it’s disabled by default, I only turn it on when he road constantly switches between villages and dark highway, and it does it’s job well
• it has adaptive cruise control so it holds the distance automatically. It is super awesome during long trips, because you just control what it does, and don’t have to hit the brakes whenever some asshole swerves in front of you (because you keep a good distance, right?:) )

If the car in the front swerved and you have milliseconds, that only means you didn’t keep a safe distance.

Correct: if you see an obstacle and have to do something, swerving without signals is dangerous. Braking is the first maneuver you think of, if you are out of time to decide.
And flicking a turn signal (if you do it every time you turn) takes milliseconds and comes naturally.

Joint is when it’s too hot and too much with my low tolerance. I need a couple hits, so not my choice.
Pipe is hot smoke, so meh. Last resort option, for when you go somewhere and want it to fit into a pocket.
Bong is a sweet spot - not hot, and you can put however much you want.
For all the three, effect is the same, so only really depends on how much you smoke.
Edibles: for me the effect is slower and more even throughout the time. And if you make edibles yourself it’s kinda waste of product because some of the wffect is lost when you cook stuff (bake brownies, etc). But is the best option for non-smokers.
There is also an option of mixing tobacco and weed/hash with tobacco in a usual cigarette, it was a good way to not have a full joint of weed for me, but I quit smoking years ago and I don’t want to accidentally get back to it.

Do you flick the turn signal? My Kia doesn’t cause me any problems if I do it before actually turning in that direction

Oh, I just went “full 5 bucks a month” into Kagi - it is great, I haven’t used a useful (non-ai-first) websearch for a while

Not directly related, but let’s listen to the real classic:

If Freddie was also a bottom (not sure, never investigated), it would be a c-c-combo!

It’s a honest jerk.

It ain’t much, but…

Multiple crypto exchanges allow you to issue a card and pay for usual stuff. I don’t use one now because I don’t have savings in crypto, but I did buy groceries with BTC. They were actually traded to euros first at the moment of payment, but it didn’t require any additional steps from me.

I live in a country with a lot of newer cars (not bragging, it is what it is), and the growing amount of led lights really made it more manageable. My car ( Kia Ceed SW 2022) also lights up the road really good, but if you are above the light rays, it’s not blinding at all. So I would say the problem existed mostly for cars between 2010 and 2020. So this meme got kinda old

Also don’t tell anyone about huge amounts of ram sticks that you can easily get out by hundreds.

It’s not the movie, it’s the families should be halal!

Sounds fun! I like that there are battery-powered offroad bikes: I loved to walk around in the forests backe where I from, and there were some assholes ripping through the moss on dirtbikes. While I understand the thrill of doing that, the damage was easily noticeable, and they were also loud and smelly. Now if someone would ride around on something lighter, enviromentally-friendly, and quiet, it would be awesome.
I’m riding a usual bike - knowing that if i buy an e-bike, I will quickly get lazy, I don’t allow myself to think about its convenience too much. :)

Are you playing Boards and Winches, or just plain ol Puddles?
