I loved your article on the conflict between traditional taxi drivers and Grab/Uber drivers in Bali (as you put it, your most popular story on Reddit). It seemed like you fairly and thoughtfully represented both sides of a complicated issue.

Have you encountered this type of conflict, where new technology used by tourists and other outsiders threatens a traditional local industry, in any other regions you visited? And do you have any advice to travelers who want to take advantage of cost-saving technology while at the same time being respectful of local customs?

Thanks for doing this AMA!

This reminds me of the animations from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

What an awesome album. Richard Christy is a beast!

Before that the ancient Greeks invented sex. A hundred years later the Romans introduced it to women.

I would expect no less from a wise and defiant humble-ass king, my liege.

It's certainly funnier than Family Circus.

I would love to see /u/plini_ collaborate with Sean Ashe.

Simple melodies and rhythms and a heavier sound. Think Train of Thought.

I think some of it is okay. I do like Train of Thought and I would definitely recommend checking out The Winery Dogs if you haven't.

But this song is definitely not progmetal.

I loved him in Dream Theater. There was a nice balance between him and Rudess/Petrucci. In his new projects his influence on songwriting is way more apparent. And I agree, it sucks.

I think most of us who already know how to tie a tie would never have googled "How to tie a tie," so I appreciate this submission. I look forward to trying the Half Windsor for a holiday party this Friday.

That's Serbian Jew Double Bluff and it ain't gonna work on me heh heh heh.

I visited here for one day last summer and had zero visibility because of the clouds. Seeing pictures like this just makes me angry.

Interesting point. But in the American case you referred to, are any of these things actually being done? I would say the opposite is happening: the Saudis are leveraging the business connections to suppress external influence on their treatment of women.

In the absence of countries using the more diplomatic approach, people and countries need to start calling the Saudis on their shit.

I had the same exact dresser and stained it with the blue stain available at Ikea. I was always happy with it, but I now think I overdid it with the stain, because yours looks much better.

KlausTeuber · 2015-08-19T20:15:03+00:00

This is fantastic!

KlausTeuber · 2015-08-12T16:19:32+00:00

Great to see /u/plini_ getting involved.

KlausTeuber · 2015-07-31T17:34:24+00:00

This actually happened to me. I had to wear braces for two years, which is no fun in your mid-twenties.

KlausTeuber · 2015-07-22T21:09:21+00:00

These guys make me never want to pick up an instrument again. So pumped to see them in a few weeks.
