Re:Suicide rates highest ever among middle-aged men

I have noticed a real lack of qualified car mechanics. I mean people that can actually fix something in a car instead of just swapping pieces. Maybe that will be my next career.
Don't know where to start, though.

Hi, consider talking to someone.
Also, community helps.

I was thinking how the OneDrive/Google drive cloud storage offers can be easily emulated by LLM + S3 compatible storage.
You can write a 10 lines skill file that basically says "when I ask you to upload a file, use this API key to upload it to the best suited path on my bucket"

That's very european. Even the ones who invest in stock mostly choose US tech stocks to get some double digit growth.
It felt real and, for a moment, I was worried that it was journalism and not fiction.

I think the concept is cool, but I tried clicking on stuff I'm familiar with, and I don't get the circles thing.
For example, the French communist party (PCF) has Jacques Chirac in its first circle. He has briefly been in this party, but he mostly remembered as right-wing.
Also the Fiorentina football club, should have its hall of fame striker Gabriel Batistuta in its first circle -he has a statue- while he appears in the outer circle.

Re:Why Estonians invite strangers into their back gardens each summer

"It's quite traditional to help foreign visitors on Hiiumaa because back then it meant they were here because of [a] shipwreck or something like that, and they needed help."
It's crazy that your 1st thought seeing a stranger in your village is that he might be lost or distressed.

Oh boy, how could I forget about the Iranian team, and the other players/referees/staff that were rejected or stuck at the airport for hours ? It was worse than a sh-t show actually.

First, it was a new formula of the tournament with more teams which explains the headlines about a someone setting a new record every 2 days.
Second, the hydration (ads!) breaks were clearly used to tweak some tactics, player positionning, etc, making it another half-time. It's a strategic opportunity. Why not introduce a 2 min drill, then ? - yuck- That's not football.
Third, I won't talk about that specific red card or that penalty kick, but the fact that players and staff complained so much about the refereeing issues hurts the trust we can have into the game as a whole.
And that 27 min half-time... Seriously ?!

I'm so happy to see they care enough to take a stand.
The last World Cup was a sh-t show. I expect the LA olympics to be no better.

I went the same route. I have bought stuff from the 2000s for my 10yo girl: pink plastic digital camera, mp3 player, a desktop PC in the middle of the living room.
Btw, do you know any website where we can legally download mp3 ?
