English Wikipedia is about 22gb without media.

IMO megathreads are a way of suppressing news. They should only be used when a topic is actively drowning out all other discussion.

These both seem to be pretty neutral titles?

My wife came to Canada because her and her pilot father Mohammad had their immigration status to NYC revoked in 2001. You can guess why. A win in retrospect, but not at the time

Go to language and region > click 3 dots for your language > language options > add a keyboard > add Dvorak (or whatever). Then either remove the qwerty layout or do win+space to actually select the keyboard layout.

I think this will cause as many problems as it solves (from Reddit's POV), going private has always been a panic button for mods when shit hits the fan. Now those controversies will have much longer to build and have news stories written about it first. Short sighted.

In summer roughly weekly sometimes less for both. In winter all the bedding but the duvet cover monthly (we wrap the duvet around us like a burrito and thus change it more often). Towel biweekly in winter.

Do you see a leaf next to the directions, that means it's taking the most fuel efficient route not the fastest, it's the default I believe. I don't think it's very effective.

Gmaps is still definitely getting worse over time regardless.

I like hot.

What I seem to miss is that there is a controversial sort, but not a controversial sort with a time range like there is for top. When a big event happened on that other site I would check out "controversial - last day" to see what the dissenting narrative was

The audiobook really changed my perspective on the pandemic, wonderful book. The movie was fine but for whatever reason I didn't have the same emotional response as the audiobook.

"Project Hail Mary" is a similar vibe by the same author, not quite as good but a fun read!

I loved having the movie run in the background at parties. That sounds like an insult but tuning into a scene every now and again while blazed is a wonderful experience I do enjoy watching it properly from time to time too.
