The shortest stay was in Bahrain, for three days. I’d add duration and impression to the list, but that’d take me forever. So instead I’ll just say that my favorites are Singapore, Malaysia, Czech Republic, and Croatia. Honorable mention: Bahrain

I haven’t really gotten drunk in ages, with a few notable exceptions. Sure, I still drink beer, but rarely to the point of actually getting drunk.

Exceptions:

• On a work trip halfway around the world. After a looong day in the equatorial heat, some coworkers and I met in the bar to unwind. Upon trying to pay, it turned out that the ops manager had put his card in the bar and we all drank for free that night. My GF phoned me about something trivial later that night, and due to timezones she was expecting a normal afternoon conversation while I was severely hammeren and headed for bed. I vaguely remember warning her as I picked up the phone of my current physical state. I also vaguely remember being able to provide the answers needed from me.
• Recently I met up with a former coworker that I hadn’t met in over 10 years. We went out for “a couple of beers”. Yeah, I had trouble finding the subway after.

I’m 42, by the way.

Storage space requirements are usualle insane compared to the end product. In this case, you need the full recording for every angle, and if you’re actively editing you probably want a buffer as well. Plus the end result is usually scaled down.

Another example with the same principle: Geophysical survey data. The end product is usually a bunch of SEG-Y files with associated JPEGs, totallengde a few gigs. But the raw survey data is more close to a petabyte: It’s s8mewhat reasonable to think of it as an audio recording consisting of four mono channels * 1000 recording stations * a month duration.

Raw data adds up fast.

My favorite ones are:

Singapore - Beautiful, plenty to do and explore, and great lounges in general.
Istanbul - The Turkish Airlines lounge is among the best I’ve ever visited. A bit crowded though.
Amsterdam - Lots to do, efficient design, and fun to explore.
Copenhagen - Very efficient design

Honorable mention: Aberdeen. Small, simple, and with a nice pub. Could’ve used a better eatery, though.

What is it that you want to say but can’t?

Where is this from, again? I know I’ve seen it somewhere…

I used to do the same, and for stationary PCs, that’s still my recommendation. Sure, some might actually need bleeding edge stuff for for some specific niche high performance thing, but for most people that’s a waste of money.

The only exception is for laptops. I rely on laptops as I’m often on the go, and I’ve generally had better results when going high end (within reason) than going mid-tier.

iPhone 3G. Awful performance, even worse battery life, no multitasking, next to no storage space, couldn’t do shit without iTunes, and even with iTunes the options were severely limited. Overpriced locked down piece of shit. Streamlined UI was pretty much the only good thing about it. Got an android phone not long after and it was like night and day.

Neither, really. I have enough when it comes to both.

But if I absolutely had to choose I’d say clothes, solely based on jeans: I finally found a type I actually like (as opposed to “meh, good enough”, which has been the standard most of my life) about a year ago. My preferred jeans can only be found at Target, and I live in Europe.

Where from? Asking for a friend…

Ok, hear me out…:

(Yes, I know that’s substantially newer, but the only alternative I could think of from my actual childhood is Jessica Rabbit or the original Ariel)

For some reason this pyramid scheme (World Games Inc) was highly popular where I grew up. “Everyone” was in on it, but my family somehow wasn’t. But you couldn’t even strike up a casual conversation with anyone without it ending up as a sales pitch. It was fucking tiresome. Luckily the thing folded eons ago.

No, that’s clearly Lieutenant George Colthurst serving under Captain Blackadder.

Surprisingly high resolution for such and old show, though.

Noted. Edited post accordingly, but my point still stands.

Fresh urine is sterile, but has everything bacteria needs to thrive once they arrive. And a week of room temperature is exactly how they prefer their new home. You’re basically handing them a 5-star hotel with luxury meals included.

Fresh piss may be gross, but room temperature aged piss will definitely make you sick.

EDIT: Turns out it’s not sterile. But at least it’s not 90% bacteria by weight
