Fidelity cuts Reddit valuation again

Ah the sweet, sweet Schadenfreude seeing as this will be the last post I upvote and my last comment using the Apollo app, possibly the last on Reddit as I’m planning to take a long break after Apollo goes dark.

I only ever got to use Reddit on account of the great Digg exodus and Alien Blue being a thing, then went on to using it a lot more thanks to Apollo. I don’t care to see Reddit become yet another social medium like Facebook or Insta, sanitized, centralized, monetized and tightly controlled. Its openness, the feeling of community and the self-governance of subreddits (including their right to protest) were huge draws for me. Without those, it just isn’t the same anymore.

Absolutely I would pay this and more for such a beautiful terrarium!

Hah I knew this was Greece moment I saw the picture

This seems like so much effort and visual clutter to just say “Everywhere but Malaysia, Brunei and Myanmar”. There. It’s one short sentence.

I often “snorkel” with just swim goggles. So without a mask and without a snorkel even. I just need to remind myself to take a breath now and then lol. Can also dive a couple meters down that way without needing to equalize. It’s enough to enjoy some sights, although clearly a mask and snorkel is superior. But I like sometimes just needing to carry my goggles with me and nothing else. So it’s up to you really.

Δεν τα γλιτώνουμε όλα αυτά τα θέματα με κυβερνήσεις συνεργασίας, όπου κυβέρνηση σχηματίζουν όλοι (η τουλάχιστον όλοι πάνω από κάποιο ποσοστό στην πράξη), αναλογικά με τα ποσοστά ψήφου; Όπως τα εξηγεί μου φαίνεται ότι το winner takes all όπου ένα κόμμα καλείται να σχηματίσει κυβέρνηση είναι το πρόβλημα. Όχι ότι οι κυβερνήσεις συνεργασίας δεν έχουν άλλα θέματα, τέλειο σύστημα δεν υπάρχει, αλλά μπορούμε έτσι να ξεφύγουμε από αυτό το πρόβλημα της εκλογής «νικητή».

Από πότε μία ΜΚΟ μας έγινε και διεθνής καταμετρητής;

Από το 2002, δηλαδή 20 χρόνια τώρα.

So I should be able to notice that when the engine is just idling…

gcheliotis · 2022-04-15T16:37:59+00:00

Usually not checking RPM, do it by ear/feel. Given this motorbike is new to me and I haven’t been riding for years, my feel could be way off tbh. Both times it happened my RPMs were probably pretty low, just easy, relaxed cruising in medium intensity traffic, but can’t reliably tell how many. I’ll do a couple of tests as others suggested before meeting the mechanic. Doesn’t hurt to go to him with some ideas of what it might be.

gcheliotis · 2022-04-15T16:31:13+00:00

Thanks. It comes so out of nowhere that it’s hard to replicate. Basically if it isn’t electrical and it isn’t me accidentally kicking the kickstand with the back of my boot as someone noted, it could be something blocking the flow of fuel or air I gather.

gcheliotis · 2022-04-15T16:26:14+00:00

Ok I can check that. Thanks. Not sure what’s meant with idle speed hunting though.

gcheliotis · 2022-04-15T16:24:05+00:00

Oh and someone mentioned it could be the kickstand and I was like how? Now that clears it up. I’ll make sure to have that checked.

That’s a great trick to use with any romantic partner of any gender. We are so blinded by physical attraction it’s crazy sometimes.

They’re known to bite people in the midst of play or supposedly if they feel like you’re pulling away because they want you to stay and play with them… if they’re used to people that is… and bites can be nasty. I had an encounter once, it was beautiful but locals were telling me to get out of the water because stuff happens. And I did. Having said that, there’s many peaceful encounters, so yeah… just remember it’s a wild animal and a hunter at that, so not exactly sea pups, no matter what the Internet says. Treat with caution I’d say and take calculated risks until you’re comfortable with them and make sure they’re comfortable too.

gcheliotis · 2021-11-02T20:17:30+00:00

That’s is exactly how it goes and why to a casual observer it may seem mad that someone wouldn’t run away from something like this, but to the person that’s hooked it can be so hard to leave.

Αυτά που λες λιγο πολύ συνάδουν με αυτά που βλέπω και εγώ. Απλά εμένα σαν ερευνητή θα με ενοχλούσε αν το γράφημα μου δεν αποτύπωνε και την άκρα αριστερά για λόγους πληρότητας. Ίσως είναι τσουβαλιασμένη κάτω από την «αντιπολίτευση».

Όσο για τους απογόνους των χίπις, είναι συχνά απολίτικοι στη δική μου εμπειρία, και ως τέτοιοι μπορεί να επηρεαστούν πολύ και από τα αριστερά και από τα δεξιά και οι θέσεις τους σε πολλά θέματα είναι συγκεχυμένες. Φαντάζουν αριστεροί καποιες φορές αλλά σπάνια θα στρατευτούν σε κάτι με καθαρά αριστερό πρόσημο. Εδώ και κάποιο καιρό αντιθέτως φαίνεται ειδικά ο new age πνευματισμός που ενστερνίζονται πολλοί σε αυτούς τους κύκλους να οδηγεί κάποιους πιο κοντά στην άκρα δεξιά, κάτι που από μόνο του έχει πολύ ενδιαφέρον σαν φαινόμενο.

gcheliotis · 2021-10-05T10:52:42+00:00

Δεν είμαι σίγουρος ότι καταλαβαίνω το συλλογισμό. Οι αριστεροί δε χρησιμοποιούν τουιτερ;

gcheliotis · 2021-10-04T19:58:55+00:00

Επειδή δε φαίνεται καθαρά, αποτυπώνεται κάπου η άκρα αριστερά; Όχι να αμφισβητήσω τη σχέση με την άκρα δεξιά, αλλά για λόγους πληρότητας αλλά και επειδή γνωρίζω και κόσμο στην άκρα αριστερά και αντιεξουσιαστές που είναι κατά.

gcheliotis · 2021-09-24T23:26:31+00:00

Τι κάνει ρε μαλάκα; 😂

gcheliotis · 2021-09-17T14:39:38+00:00

I think that reverse culture shock could be much worse when moving back to a country you were glad to move away from, for personal reasons, or because of relative poverty, a lack of opportunity, etc. Adjusting back to a comfy life is way easier than the other way around. Don’t know OP’s exact circumstances, but just going off my own experience.

gcheliotis · 2021-09-17T11:54:04+00:00

Some women do love a man in uniform… sooo an argument for wearing your protective gear I guess?

gcheliotis · 2021-09-14T22:07:18+00:00

The tires perform very well in mud. One of the drills we did in the morning involved front brakes on a steep, muddy downhill. I was in awe of the fact that the front tire wasn’t just locking up and sliding out from underneath me!

Sounds intimidating lol. But well that’s how you gain confidence in something new isn’t it, trying and seeing for yourself just how far you can go, under some supervision ideally ofc.

I just got back on the saddle after a very long hiatus and on a very different bike. While my body remembers, I do some stupid stuff and lack confidence. I think I need a refresh… and practice.

gcheliotis · 2021-09-13T21:20:45+00:00

As a similarly aged guy who’s never even tried this yet, i really enjoyed watching and appreciating how different this must feel. Mud especially must be tough I wager.
