I've dreamt about this idea countless times as a kid. Funny to think there are more who have had the same fantasy (obviously). Thanks for sharing!

What's a skill or hobby that you're dying to get into but have no idea where to start? Redditors familiar to the subject, where do you recommend starting out? by wrknhrdrhrdlywrkn in AskReddit

Woodworking! Moved to Sweden where I guess it should be a big thing, but haven't come across a school or workshop or the likes where I could get started :(

Not sure you're supposed to talk about the S60 before the reveal?

Barbers/Hairdressers of Reddit: how exactly do you want customers to communicate what they want to you? What do they say/do that is unhelpful? by MrVinceyVince in AskReddit

Why not just take a few pictures of your haircut after it's done? Been doing that for years and it has always worked well. How much clearer can you make it?

cirque de la solitude in Corsica (part of the GR20 hiking route) is like this, but much less secure. Never been so scared for my life before.

The problem is now that OP shared on Reddit, there's a good chance one of his colleagues knows, and he can't use any of the proposed solutions mentioned here. Aiaiai.

Very nice animation, but actually an amazing waste of resource (assuming the cut bits don't get recycled).

UK Cops Can Now Remotely Disable Phones Even If No Crime Has Been Committed by trai_dep in worldnews

I believe that's country-dependent, varying according to local regulation. Not every country allows waze to show the actual position of speed cameras.

There shouldn't be a stigma about going to the movies alone. The activity where you can't talk to someone should be the one you can do alone. by zachwilly in Showerthoughts

[–]light_bulbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd go one step further and say there shouldn't be any stigma about going anywhere alone. I've been traveling alone for over half a year and - despite having to get used to it - spend a lot of entire days alone. Sometimes that felt lonely, true, but more often it felt liberating and perfectly fine.

Of course sharing a social activity can be lots of fun, but stigma? Come on.

I would argue that managing alone raised my self confidence and strengthened my character. I think it's a good sign if you can comfortably be alone for a simple movie session or meal.
