Luthier•Currently on my messy workbench: a copy of a 15th century gitternEnglish
3·5 months agoHoly moly!
My 6yo staryed Tai Kwon Do and still does 2y later. The nice thing about it is that there are different disciplines. Style or fighting. So they find something they like. He also said that he needs it now. Although after a year he wanted to quit. He stuck with it and now he misses it if he misses training. Don’t know karate. For what it’s worth.
It’s all trophies he bought himself for being such an awesome guy

Technology•Meta will cease political ads in European Union by fall, blaming bloc’s new rulesEnglish
2·6 months agoOr maybe long term plan: let the political parties know if they want back in, to revise their policies in a more pro-meta stance?
He was married, she was recently divorced I think
Commodore 128, won by my parents at a contest, back in the day, guessing the price of a pallet of ‘Zwarte Kat’ coffee.
I don’t comment a lot but now I have to: I really like it!
I enjoyed this meaningful response. Thank you.
DO NOT play shadow of the colossus… Not a big gamer but never felt so alone in a game…
Thanks for the detailed explanation. I did not know this… It’s less cool now knowing rather than imagining Pawel going from doing Gwen to Evan to Sharon to Kid#3 in different voices. :)
EDIT: And indeed, that Kung Fury tidbit is very awesome.
True words, but you sound like a general more positive person than me. I’m pretty sure the damage of meeting more crappy people will quite undo any effect of meeting nice good people. But I do enjoy people, just the crappy ones really dig in with me.
Love GS (omiwatari) but not a big seamasterfan. Also no replica. Nothing against it but I’d feel fake myself personally. I agree with the novelty colors and watches. Good for the cheap ones but expensive novelties isn’t for my wallet. Loving the classics.
Many and many. But have you met people? Most of them really REALLY suck. 😉
I’d be mad like hell if I’d lose it, for a lifetime, but I’ll live. I hate notifications of my phone so no smartwatch please. I can’t return it but might be able to sell without loss. I think I want it but have trouble picking cornflakes, choices are hard for me. I can get it secondhand but it’s gonna cost more secondhand. 😁 Loved the questionnaire. 🙏🏻
I get that the whole Rolex thing is exactly that: a whole thing. Most of it is just the way of money, people, … etc. But I figure it’s what it is. For a simple worker like me that’s the Rolex experience. If I was a famous soccer player I’m sure it will be a whole other experience. I’ve had pleasant contacts, but also a whole bunch of bad experiences with Rolex A.D’s. But for me the biggest selling point of Rolex (the watch) over a nice microbrand is that I’m buying it for me and my offspring. And because of the volumes and the track record I’m pretty sure my kid in the future will (almost) always be able to fix it or sell it for a decent price when they dislike watches. At least that’s what I hope. There’s better watches with better tech etc. but the slow moving pace of Rolex is also what guarantees the longevity of it. For me the bigger price is good because it forces me to not buy a shitload of watches. Like I can’t just buy what I like, I have to reallllly think about it. I feel like I’m already not wearing the watches I own enough. (another reason not to buy lol) And the DJ41 is a nostalgic thing for me. If I think of Rolex that’s the watch I remember from when I was ‘little’. But you’re right. I am unsure but that’s my baseline. Going next days to see a TT DJ36 brown and then the DJ41 and then I’ll have to make a decision. Fucking watches he.













Cause they only focus on themselves? If that gets attacked, it’s an attack on their only asset. When your focus lies on a spectrum of interests other than yourself, you keep an overview and your overall self worth. I dunno.
