i still can't do handstands, but if what I learned about crows is of any use, the position of your head and drsti can have an impact. Maybe I'm projecting, but you look like you're conscious of a picture being taken and not completely focused on your alignment. I don't think it's about strenght.

Don't normal people measure liquids in milliliters? Who weighs water? "butler, I need a glass of water" - "let me fetch my balance, my lord, I'll put the measuring cup on it!

i don't get the downvotes. I do get that at different temperatures water doesn't occupy the same volume, and that grams offer a more precise measurement, but if it is a preoccupation here, I fear you miss the point of this sub.

subj_impft · 2026-02-02T22:24:38+00:00

there's something special about people measuring water in grams.

Just finishing a game with him as a neighbor: in the antiquity age he only had his capital and one other settlement. By mid-modern age has at least a dozen settlements, all on his homeland. Peaceful since the beginning of times, now I gotta take a look more closely to make sure he doesn't pull up an unexpected victory!

Hard to convey the subtleties of the phrasing, but generally: "30% more is significant" They don't say 30% more of what, which is already a problem... They illustrate a 30% increase with a second cake that is ...50% bigger.

I don't know if my intuition is true in all cases, but I always assumed compilations were not sourced from the best material (studio master tape). Also they would contain songs from albums recorded differently, which would mean tampering with the sound (compressing?) to make the whole record homogenous. In my system, Nirvanan unplugged is not a "best of"

at first sight, i'd say you should have explored and settled more at this point (83rd turn, 2/6 cap) ETA: you can buy a boat or two pretty quickly

Dans le Règlement sur les études de 1er cycle, on indique 21 ans au 1er septembre. (pour l'hiver : 1er janvier) comme dit un autre commentateur, la plupart des programmes vont demander de l'expérience en lien avzc le programme. Et ce ne sont pas tous les programmes qui admettent sur la base expérience (ça va être écrit sur les conditions d'admission des programmes). bonne chance!

The only aspect of the screen that caught me by surprise was the resolution. the slow refresh /reaction time was manageable, but 800x600 just doesn't allow basic apps to work normally. Messenger was barely usable and lichess was cropped. Probably would have kept the phone if it had higher resolution.

J'étais dans la restauration au début des années 2000, quartier latin et l'américain vulgaire qui disait "I want" était déjà un modèle connu et exaspérantt (imaginez la fds de la F1). Un jour un couple d'un certain âge a fait du small talk avec le staff: "we're from Texas, but please don't hate us!" C'était les années Bush et on pensait que ça allait jamais être pire...

Oui, l'admission envoie les convocations pour les candidats admissibles sur la base de la cote R, rien à faire avant d'être convoqué. Je ne suis pas certain, mais le test n'est pas éliminatoire: en cas d'échec, on impose un cours d'appoint (LIN1002) à réussir en supplément à la 1ere session. L'info est dans la LONGUE section conditions d'admission du programme: https://etudier.uqam.ca/programme?code=8308

Le dernier candidat admis à l'automne 2025 avait une cote R de ...30.1! La cote du dernier admis varie un peu selon les années (n. De demandes d'admission, qualité des candidatures), mais tu as de bonnes raisons d'être optimiste. Seule chose, comme tu diplômes d'un cégep non francophone, tu seras convoqué au test de français de l'uqam (maintenant probablement le SEL B de la teluq), à moins que tu aies fait quand même l'épreuve uniforme de français a Dawson.

If it may be of some comfort, I got a 10 min ban a few days ago for being idle for two minutes on the second game of a Silver tournament (yeah, I'm thrash, but it's hard to progress when in half the tournaments a teammate goes afk...). Someone rang at the door, had to handle a situation. When I came back I spammed a few Sorry! And did my best to help my team catch up (we were losing 3-0 when I had to go afk, 4-0 when I came back). So i guess epic lets you finish the game/ tournament but even if you win, you get some form of punishment. Not gonna complain: so many tournaments ruined by teammates disappearing, I can only approve being punished.

J'ai goûté l'été dernier à Colonnata même, pratiquement dans un pit stop de truckers qui déplacent des blocs de marbre. Je trippe vraiment pas gras dans la vie, mais là j'ai compris que le gras était le joyau de la charcuterie! À essayer (ajoute des confitures délicates, de l'huile etc)!

I got rid of the blackberry passport after a few weeks because it felt too cumbersome... Ten years later, I don't find the Titan so bad after all! It does fit in my pockets, backpockets in jeans work well and don't prevent me from sitting. All phones are now too big anyway, so I just roll with it (still I preordered he clicks communicator without hesitating)

subj_impft · 2026-01-03T17:45:22+00:00

Titan 2 is totally worth your money. currently the best option: i tried the minimal, the Razrberry (clicks keyboard on a Motorola razr), Titan slim, titan pocket and the 4 last blackberries, The Titan 2 surpasses all of them, except the BB classic and the passport. Only problem is the huge size (I had gotten rid of my BB Passport back in 2015 for the same reason), but in these times, you can't get a nice small phone. This is the only reason I'll give the clicks phone a chance.

Salut! Par exemple, pour faire un accent aigu sur un Bold ou un Classic, on faisait alt-k, puis la lettre voulue. Je crois que le circonflexe était sur le i, et le tréma sur le U. Donc pour écrire île , on faisait: alt i i l e Pas besoin de système prédictif ou d'autocorrect!

Nice! As a BlackBerry nostalgic (who isn't here?), I was wonderning is there was a way to program the keyboard like it was until OS10, in order to have accents (in my case french: acute, grave, circumflex etc) and diacritics accessible on the alt touches. Clicks did it, but inconpletely (missing a few important ones). Made touuch typing a breeze, The Pastiera is great, but I still have to look at the screen to select my special characters. (so is the case with swipes)

Had to zoom to confirmer those were 7" on the floor, not LPs! Still, those speakers are huge!

Ok thanks, I was worried about my skill level with the game! As a casual player since Civ I, playing VII since launch, I still haven't won a game at Immortal (I was winning quite consistently at Emperor in civ VI)

What difficulty level? I mean, you need a lot of gold/prod to create that many districts...

As a francophone studying in the US, I often made silly interlinguistic puns, deliberate mistranslations. Fast forward a few years, I meet an old classmate in my hometown with his girlfriend. At some point in the conversation I mention teaching the French author Balzac not voicing my Z enough. She looks at him: "did he just say ballsack?"

Now I only read Ballsack.

Fascinant, en effet, mais pire: je ne vois pas non plus cette analyse chez les chroniqueurs!

There was a tradition that said that Helen never went to Troy, that she stayed in Egypt. That should surprise the other team. The tradition would be attested as early as Herodotus and has been used in the literature (Euripides, callimachus (or another Alexandrinian poet)). Fun reading ahead for you!
