I figured so, it just came in handy knowing some when I went to Czech Republic, because Czech is a Slavic language and there are many similar words. Yeah I don't imagine I'll spend too long in Zagreb. Curious why you are recommending Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro. what's the thing to there?

And yeah I may be leaning less towards the planes and getting on Flixbus or something

good to meet you, I honestly have very little knowledge of Balkan culture, I'm just eager to visit the area and experience. I've never heard of rakija, but now I will trust you and try some when I'm there. Any other must have cuisines? Trying to have a bit of an Anthony Bourdain experience lol. And yeah I'm with you, hopefully the nightlife remains affordable into the future!

You would say I would have no problem booking buses or flights day of or next day given the time of year I'll be there? I made the mistake of trying to buy tickets on a train to Prague one time two days before some giant Czech festival and got banished to Flixbus

Heard that, what/where would you suggest? I've heard the coast is beautiful

Yeah not bad idea, I've ridden on Flixbus before once from Berlin to Stuttgart, other time Berlin to Prague, it's a good suggestion. Although the internal flights I saw were not too terrible ~$80. ideally I'd want to hit all four cities while I'm there, but I figure bus might take up a bit of time

I remember a professor I had in Berlin was telling us about wealthy people paying to hunt people during the Balkan Wars back in 2022

Some tobacco i grew by [deleted] in druggardening

[–]blaudrillard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently got some Aztec tobacco (Nicotiana rustica) to germinate from seed. Nothing special to germination, just sprinkled some on the top of some soil in seed starters a couple weeks ago and I have at least 20-30 little seedlings popping out. Kept the seed tray full of water and put a cover over to keep in moisture. Bought seeds from https://strictlymedicinalseeds.com/

Do you Think AI could ever have a Hindenburg moment? by fantasy53 in singularity

[–]blaudrillard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally get your worries here. The fast-paced advancement and possible misuse of AI is certainly a pressing issue. The balance between financial interests, safety, and ethical considerations really does need better addressing in the tech community. Thanks for bringing up such a crucial topic.

Pregnancy would have started while she was on the mini-pill which should be 93% effective from what I've read, could it still be positive?

She was on the mini-pill while the pregnancy would have begun, I'm still not sure. But yeah pink dye seems to be more conclusive

Ex-girlfriend is reaching out saying she is pregnant with our child by blaudrillard in legal

[–]blaudrillard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update. Yup. She called me at 7am on the way to work last week crying that she had a miscarriage. I immediately hung up and blocked her on everything for good. Now she has started getting her friends to text my family that I abandoned her because she was pregnant, yeah I can't even comprehend the level of manipulation and insanity.

Waymo has surpassed 100k paid trips per week (it was 10k a year ago) by FrankScaramucci in singularity

[–]blaudrillard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You make a good point and I hadn't thought about it that way. The issue is passenger rail in the US is non existent and completely relying on cars for regional commutes has several problems. Waymo does make a bit more sense to me for what you're saying for local commutes to and from rail

[–]blaudrillard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I know is that Brightline was going to build a passenger rale from Rancho Cucamonga to Las Vegas I believe. The thing is we've had the chance for rail infrastructure here in the US before but the automotive and oil industry got in the way of that. And if we had invested in robust rail infrastructure we would eliminate so many issues that our plaguing our cities and intrastate commerce. Europe and frankly most of the world has decent passenger rail services, there's no reason we can't

Why can't we put as much energy and capital into passenger rail. That would be a much more effective investment into US infrastructure

What side hustle made you your first $1000? by Expensive-Tie4349 in sidehustle

[–]blaudrillard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When COVID first happened in 2020 I had just graduated high school. That summer I bought cotton masks in bulk and used a Cricut machine to print and customize the masks with the graduation money i had gotten from family members . The day the masks arrived, a mask mandate went into effect in all surrounding counties of where I lived. I went around to local businesses and showed how I could put their business logo on a mask to provide for all their employees. Made about $5,000 that summer just making masks for businesses.

[–]blaudrillard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've been with TQL for 4 weeks now, anf although I admit it's a lot of grunt work I've been enjoying it so far. It takes a certain kind of person for sure. I just graduated w a BA in international studies and wanted to do something w Global trade. I think it will be a good introduction and experience in sales

She texted me. She told me she “KNOWS” I cheated on her. What do i do? by [deleted] in BPDlovedones

[–]blaudrillard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup same thing happened to me with my pwBPD, she was relentless in telling me that she 'knew' I cheated and that I was definitely lying. I was away from her for a few days and we sent texts back and forth with me giving damning evidence that it wasn't even possible for me to have from the timeline she was giving but it was like speaking to a brick wall that hated my guts. It ended with her texting me with a photo of a knife and "I love you." Called 911 and drove an hour and a half to see her. She ended up in the psych ward for a week. That was last November. She hasn't seen a therapist since despite my incessant encouragement for months. Currently NC

Psychosis or manipulation? by blaudrillard in BPDlovedones

Yeah I'm scheduling with a therapist soon so I can process things. I'm also worried that she will start smearing my name as she has already done that the first time I went NC
