I spent 15 years working nights. 3 x 12 hour shifts (which was the best way to work IMO) and 4 x 10.

I’ve been working 5 x 8 hour days for 4 years or so now and I guess I have adjusted some what but I still fucking hate it. 5 day working week is the absolute worst. The only saving grace I have now is my current job doesn’t care when I start / finish as long as I complete my 8 hours so I end up going in at 4am so I can finish at 12 and actually have some day time to do other things.

Actual 9 to 5 is possibly the worst way to work imo

Seen as you decided to add an edit that you were returning to Duolingo, what exactly is your goal because it certainly isn’t to effective learn any language.

6 months ago you asked Lemmy for more effective alternatives to Duolingo and people gave you lots of alternatives that are a lot more effective including myself recommending Busuu and others recommending language transfer, both of which piss all over Duolingo which is utter trash.

You make so many posts on Lemmy but then rarely actually interact with them further beyond the initial drivel you spout, when you do receive advice after asking for it it seems you just ignore it anyway so what is the point?

Maybe it seems like I’m picking on you and honestly I am, purely because of things you said back in that early Duolingo thread you made, I’ll just go ahead and quote another of your gems from that thread.

VanHalbgott - "Oh, there’s a new course on Busuu for French that I don’t like that deals with inclusive terms I’m probably not confortable talking about anymore since they deal with genders and sexuality.

I’m trying to be a Christian instead and not talk about those things in my faith, but that doesn’t mean I’ll be learning what is supposed to be teaching me French with weird terminology."

I hope going back to Duolingo they won’t have the audacity to teach you gendered words for Spanish, how could your faith possibly deal with that!?

I hope this makes you uncomfortable to read, as uncomfortable as the first incredibles movie or the fact people use memes within the steam communities. People really are so inconsiderate and should really alter their way of being to appease you and your faith!

Ah whoosh straight over my head xD

I did think after the fact that maybe it was a quote I just didn’t know.

I’ll try and get some more pictures as I regularly have Jackdaws, crows and some magpies coming to my feeders. I enjoy your videos a lot :D

I started it earlier today and it is pretty nostalgic so far, I’m looking forward to putting some more time into it! Thanks for making me aware of its exsistence!

I had a similar problem with CD players in my car jumping due to bass around 07, my solution was using a power inverter and a laptop running winamp with my whole CD collection ripped onto it propped up on my centre console xD

Oh, it is you.

Mr "I started using Busuu yesterday:

Though I’m not sure about the inclusive words for French due to my convictions as a Christian."

You made this comment nearly 6 months ago and still to this day I think about how stupid it is. How does your Christianity feel about the inclusive words in Spanish?

There is a test before this one that OP would have completed. This tests for the proficiency of the unit you have just completed and is necessary to then advance onto the more advanced levels.

The test in the picture is an additional one for some kind of busuu certificate, I don’t know if it counts as official accreditation but I doubt it very much.

Not paying doesn’t hinder your progress at all and you miss nothing from not doing this silly certificate test at all other than like you say so e-peen waving I guess?

I learn Spanish to speak it with my gf and busuu has been amazing when compared to shit like Duolingo that doesn’t teach you anything usable at all so this shade being thrown based on some stupid certificate is totally unjustified.

Oh, I loved ac!d as well, I see you are a person of impecible tastes xD

I already have the ROM and will be giving it a go on the train later on today :D. I’m afraid I have no insights on an android emulator but there must be a good one!

I do agree I loved it the way it was and think it worked very well I just don’t think it sold very well. I don’t think I met anyone else that was aware of it, let alone played it.

I didn’t know there was a PSP version though, I might have to get a ROM of it and load it up onto my vita and give it a go! I’m guessing you would recommend giving it a try? ;P

I do remember printing a load out for myself at the time when I realised it was possible but it could never replace the look and feel of real cards.

I’m going to have a search tomorrow for my set actually now after having this comversation, just to see what I actually have and check it isn’t getting damp :D

My apologies, I thought it would be appreciated here being crow adjacent content xP

I still have a set with the camera, playmat etc and loads of extra cards somewhere in storage and I haven’t owned a PS3 for years.

It was by no means a perfect game but it was such a unique experience that I just loved.

Imagine if someone made a modern version based around Magic the Gathering, YuGiOh or hell even pokemon TCG. Summoning your monsters and watching them attack. I’d eat that right up!

Is everyone just gonna ignore Eye of Judgment…come on guys!

I’ve owned 5’s and 6’s and used 8’s and 10’s, as you say there are probably objectively “better” monitors but for some powered speakers that are of a high quality both sound and build wise I have no qualms recommending them.

Filled out for you even though I don’t think I am at all your target audience as virtual running races sound like my idea of hell but at least it gives you another point of view :D

I don’t know if I would consider myself an “audiophile” but I do DJ for myself and like to have a decent set of speakers.

I have owned a few pairs of KRK Rokit speakers and currently have a set of Rokit 6’s. I like them for their overall pretty neutral sound, ideally I would have a sub along with it but space is an issue for me right now so I can make do. They have a sufficient amount of bass for my small flat by themselves to be honest.

I run them through my DJ controller (Traktor S4 mk3 if you care) and have run past pairs I’ve owned through other DJ controllers and basic focusrite USB audio interfaces.

I wouldn’t say these are super high end but I find they offer a very good listening experience for not a great deal of money (I always buy second hand where I can), this set set me back around £160 if I remember correctly.

awkwardly looks at IGN’s previous Souls game “guides” on yt Oh yeah, games journalists are great at games…

Practised some mixing with some Drum and Bass.

Kick boxing training and lots of gym.

Riding my bike a lot. (Push bike)

And a little bit of New Vegas.

A quick search says .ml is the Mali country domain. It may not have been the government specifically so don’t quote me on that but I know they had a purge of people using the .ml domain names around that time.

Thanks for the recommendation :D

Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll check it out!

Fair enough, research time for me! Thanks for the reply
