Back in the 90ies my uncle always got a book for the car hee owned which would explain how to disassemble it.

But me and my dad never bothered with the book, just got to work on it and figured it out on the go. The biggest thing I replaced in my car was the whole Chassis.

But yeah in the new cars there is less mechanical stuff and more electronics so it's getting difficult.

The only place I can think off was YouTube, or if you can find a book like my uncle always had: https://onlymanuals.com/volkswagen/passat/volkswagen_passat_b3_workshop_manual_passat_b3

The lesbian woman got sterelized in case she gets raped so it doesn't result in pregnancy. That's ... wow.

Perhaps it's time to find better hobbies? It's a chore and difficult because you don't know what you like/don't like before you try it for some time.

Independent of finding girls it's also good for your own psyche to get away from the screen. And if it has to be gaming perhaps you can find people who are into board games?

Yes, but I guess you need to have luck in the dating game independent of what method you use. Somehow in the end it's a time and numbers game.

[-] jeena@piefed.jeena.net 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah, that'll be difficult then ...

No, the only international one I knew which was Tinder.

It depends. For years I had either no or bad matches at home, always the same people showing up there, etc..

But then one day while on a business trip abroad I installed a new app, payed the fee (for some reason, normally I never did) and matched with the most amazing person who made me move half way across the globe for her and now almost four years later we still live together, have a 1.5 years old son and plan finally to marry (there were some practical problems we had to fix first).

For me it worked out, but that's survival bias I guess.

So you're saying if we kill the 8, we can double the wealth of almost half of the population of the world?

The thing is that compared to other historical people we kid of have similar evidence. Like we have records of Socrates existing and we have records of some Joshua existing.

The difference is that nobody claims that Socrates was a fantastical god being who defied death, which is a extraordinary claim, we just say he was a very smart guy, we se very smart guys on a daily basis, nothing special with that so we can just believe it and even if we are wrong it has no real life implications.

For the Joshua guy, that's quite a different story. The claims about him are extraordinary and need extraordinary evidence. But we only have normal evidence. If the claims about him were true it would contradict almost everything we think we know about the universe, how it behaves, etc.

So again, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Come on for 10 days you don't need to eat anything and you will survive. You only need water that's it. The mountain lion though ...

Midsummer dinner (piefed.jeena.net)

Last Friday was midsummer, but because I'm not in Sweden but in Korea I had to improvise with ingredients which I could find here.

  • Toast Skagen
  • Fried salmon
  • Gravad lax
  • Crisp bread with cheese
  • This years small potatoes
  • Absolut vodka
  • Danish Heineken
  • Danish Somersby apple cider
  • Strawberries with whipped cream

I speak Polish, German, Swedish and English. 3 of them are Germanic languages so they were easy to learn because they are so closely related. Polish and German I learned as a child so it was kind of automatic.

Now I have to learn Korean and struggle so much! After 3 months I have learned about 100 words. Any tips how to get to the first 1000 words Ina reasonable time? Especially in a language where none of the words seem to resamle anything from my previous languages.

TLDR: The main reason was Lemmy hogging server resources.

Last year, during the Reddit 2023 API controversy I finally deleted my account and moved on to Lemmy. Here’s a look at my experiences and why I eventually decided to switch to PieFed.
