CE/BCE isn’t strictly astronomical year terminology, it can be applied to the Gregorian calendar and AD/BC can be used for astronomical years. If you see BCE outside of an astronomy context, it probably does not include a year zero

Mate I’m not telling you off for wanting to stretch, just puzzled about why you don’t do it earlier on when you start feeling cramped
You’re allowed to get up during the flight though
While we don’t have another total one in the UK until 2090, we’ve got a near-total one in August 2026. About 90-95% depend on where in the country you are, with Cornwall getting the best of it again. Spain and Iceland get the totality of it, so you could take a short trip to some pretty nice places and catch it along the way
Noita! I’ve stopped playing it now as I more or less achieved everything I wanted to with it, but it really got a hold of me with how much it rewards creative approaches to problems
Lynch is a professional communicator, surely? His job is literally to represent the interests of the members of the union. And he’s very good at it.
it said something like “this is very high”.
Maeshowe, in the Orkney Islands off the northern tip of Scotland. It’s a properly ancient structure, and there are 30 runic inscriptions in it which are all just straight up graffiti, including “Tholfir Kolbeinsson carved these runes high up”. My favourite part is it’s not even that high up, like the guy was probably just on someone’s shoulders.
Oddly enough we probably have the story of the graffiti artists. The Orkneyinga saga tells the tale of some 12th century Norsemen who took shelter there during a snowstorm and looted the place. By the time they did so, Maeshowe was already about 4,000 years old, and whatever they looted was probably left there by their own ancestors a few centuries beforehand.
I wouldn’t even mind them as much if they showed you who posted the short before you watched it. There are a few creators I like enough that I’d watch shorts by, but I’ve got no way to know it’s by them
Heads up OP, you might want to change the community name to “loneliness” rather than “lonelinnes” before it becomes a hassle to move stuff over. People are definitely more likely to find it and immediately understand what it’s about that way
Either patatas bravas or roasted. Or just roasted potatoes with bravas sauce. But to be honest I’ll be happy with most forms of potato. What a stellar vegetable
They did for a long time, having him gradually come around and begin to redeem himself, and then made an incredibly confusing decision to have him suddenly revert to his old ways right at the very end with no warning whatsoever
Well it is. But that’s the point
Volume is not mass, and neither of them is weight. A gram is strictly speaking a measure of mass, and we just consider it to be a unit of weight in casual terms because the only frame of reference the vast majority of us have has reasonably constant gravity so we conflate mass and weight. That you can sort of use grams to measure volume is literally only because the density of common stuff (especially water) is close enough for most purposes. It’s kinda like measuring a distance in units of time so long as the method of travel is known. I can say “an hour’s walk” and I’m not really measuring distance there but you know roughly how far I mean
Live in the Shire, start up a pub called “Giant Beers” which serves pints, be beloved by the Shirefolk and live in pastoral luxury
KFC in the UK is responsible for the only time I got chips (fries) while drunk on a night out that were so bad that I binned them
Better after some mileage, the specifics of which depend on things like your country’s power generation and what kind of ICE car you are replacing. It’s within the first 15,000 miles / 25,000 km unless your country runs entirely on coal or something. Over the lifetime of the car it’s significantly better.
That jumps left one word rather than to the start of the line in everything I can think of
That’s delightful
I’m still using it. I’ve got nice headphones and speakers that run off of a cable and no interest in top-end phones, so it makes sense to get a phone that fits the more expensive audio stuff rather than a bunch of adapters. Nokia’s cheaper smartphones have served me quite nicely
