My bad, I quoted their yearly “at risk” not their monthly premium. Fixed it.

Very affordable! 170 euros is less than typical US Obamacare insurance, which isn’t top-grade and I don’t think includes dentistry.

Sounds pretty good to me. If you lose your job and are still unemployed 3 months later, what happens then?

Small drafting table I got at Goodwill for $4. I’ve used it for actual drawing, and it has an adjustable tilt so it can be flat to use as a plain table.

It’s also great for holding electronic components in place while you solder them into circuit boards - even LEDs lol.

Flat-bladed screwdriver works just as well and has a better handle.

In this picture see people wearing just what they need, what their culture and friends say they should wear, and what they think their Invisible Friend whats them to wear.

I’m probably remembering it wrong, it was a long time ago. It definitely always either won or tied but could never lose, because it knew the right responses to every move. No, it didn’t cheat lol.

This reminds me of one of my very first programs, a tic-tac-toe game I wrote in high school. It displayed hardcoded grids of Xs and Os and blanks very similar to what’s shown here. This approach worked because of the much more limited move possibilities. The program could always win if it made the first move, and always win or tie if the human moved first, depending on if the human made mistakes. I wish I still had the code.

I’m doing one right now, and you’re reading it. Other times I write scenarios for my D&D campaign, do 3d printing, and wiring/coding for IoT devices. Also making cookies. Also eating the cookies.

Text files used to be a thing.

Main problem: agreeing on a banner design. Also a fair amount of hating each other.

I’ll never forgive whatever TV business entities were involved for not having Ben Browder and Claudia Black play their Farscape characters when they both joined the cast of Stargate. Because that would have been an awesome and perfectly plausible way to connect the two shows.

Firefly. Perfect combination of space and wild west.

I know right? I wouldn’t even use a weed-eater in shorts, let along a bathing suit. What got me was the contrast between the bikini and the goggles & gloves lol.

Funny story - we used to have little in-house tournaments after work before a release, which I sometimes played in just for fun - I sucked at the game. But one time I was literally walking into the tournament room and just decided nah, not tonight, and went home. Found out the next day, everybody who participated in that one received a free Black Lotus.

Many years ago there was something weirdly wrong with our old washer or dryer where white things occasionally came out stained bright pink. Not an overall tint like if you wash a cheap red shirt in the same load. It was always very distinct vivid stains, like if a little Pepto Bismol got splashed around. We never figured out what the hell was causing it.

Hopefully you know that until the shade cloth arrives any kind of cloth will actually create shade.

That reminds me of a few years ago when I noticed a neighbor down the street running a weed eater while wearing a small bikini. She had on heavy gardening gloves and safety goggles, but to protect the rest of her whole body just the bikini. And it was a really big-ass weed eater too, the kind with the extra side handle. Might have even been gas powered.

If it helps, I’m pretty sure stress sweat is far from the worst thing that nurse routinely smells. By a long shot.
