The Ramen Dutchman

Core memory unlocked: Looking at a store called “Expat store” or something in that vein in Den Haag as a little boy, asking my parent what “expat” is. “That’s an American immigrant.” “So, why are they not just an immigrant?” “That way they feel better about themselves.”

I only just realised how based my parents are.

If anything, I think it’s people used to Windows or macOS that don’t want anything to change that tend to hate Linux systems; it’s not exactly Windows/macOS (and doesn’t run exactly the MS Office and Adobe suits) so they hate it.

I don’t. What kind of memes centre around Twitter notification sounds, anyway?

Hell, trans people staying in the US are in danger of being disappeared now.

China’s government is operating illegal “police stations” inside the United States and Canada

That’d be pretty big if it’s true, how come nobody seems to know about this?

Do you have any good sources on this?

You forgot this /s

Also to prevent people from answering with little more than a link.

Wouldn’t it cool off in the sewer, though?

That reads sus. Like “Trust me bro” in nicer words.

So first kill Vance unawares, then kill Drumpf? Gotcha, noted!

No that movie was amazing!

Look, I love me some Jason Statham being overly British and kicking ass for upward two hours while barely making a face, so I’m going to say Jason Statham.

Which were they? As in what was their domain name?

But it’s also NoStupidQuestions.

I think you need to specify your European country, because small French villages have awful infrastructure while their cities have amazing infrastructure.

But even here in the Netherlands, if I’d live in a village and I wanted to go to another village further away I’d need to take the train to the nearest city and then take another train to said village. This often takes much longer than by car. Also, while basic shopping needs like a supermarket, greengrocer and some basic repair shops might be there (maybe just the supermarket) you don’t have access to… Anything else really, and need to take the car there, too. Sadly, necessary non-commercial facilities like hospitals and higher education are also missing from most villages here.

I recognise that “kentawur” is correct, but reject it because “sentar” just sounds more correct.

I guess so, but it’s still very much a large scale social media as we know it (e.g. YouTube, Twitter, Reddit…), and definitely a far cry from private chats on platforms like FB Messenger or WhatsApp…

Your first three sum up to:

• Italian food but worse
• Mexican food but worse
• Food that’s probably better in most other places

I think OP is set on those in the future, but otherwise good recommendations IG

Really? Because Weibo is much like Twitter or Instagram in China; everybody and their grandma is on it, it has everything from memes to politicians posting their thoughts. It seems very public to me, albeit if you have an account (which just about everyone there does)

What did you mean by isolated?
