i would gladly f myself anytime anyday than giving money to nint*ndo
i lost the perfect saul goodman meme for this situation
You should try it first, before hatin' on it for no reason.
You have a 2 hour playtime max and 14 day return window with steam, so it doesn't hurt to do so.
i am so back
I don't use steam much
I don't like stolen assets game sorry
What pokemon is this
Enk wrong it's a direwolf from palworld and not lyncanroc midday
What about this, what pokemon
wrong again, it's not Luxray
Palworld is a few inches away from the legality line
Legally, Nintendo can't do anything
I gotta thank palworld tho
After it's popularity, it would force gamefreak to be better
I have a holographic Charizard 1st edition
Or just watch the review if you're broke/being careful with your balance money
I always watch the review before getting a game
Palworld looks fun ngl
But I'm not interested to get the game
Cool
I have almost a full set of vmax cards
I only need like espeon and leafeon to complete the eeveelutions
what's the drama with nintendo again
They dmca takedown everything
idk
I'm not gonna protect Nintendo, they're big bad Corp
But they are what gives pokemon life and sells pokemon so
That's the only franchise from them i like
I don't like mario and the other stuff
I would gladly play 700$ for a life size lapras
glad i grew up with ps2 lol
same
I grew up with the gba ‼️
ds, 3ds
That's as far as my Nintendo consoles to
I no have switch
playing gta:sa inspired me and my homie to go around the block on bike with airsofts lmfao
i got an uzi and did drive by since 10 🗣️
Even though I grew up with PS2, I didn't get a chance to play Grand Theft Auto San Andreas til we bought it a few months before it broke
lmao whar
I bought GTA LCS first, then GTA SA
Nah, it didn't die by itself
nah i still got mine
It fell into the floor
my mom used to own a ps2 rentals
God bless PS2 man
There were a fkton of games that I played on that console
mostly racing games
Burnout, Tokyo Xtreme Racer and Colin McRae Rally
burnout 3 and midnight club were goated
midnight club > nfsmw fight me
Can't fight someone on the same side
🤝
Midnight Club 2 osts are goated
nfsmw r banger as well
One of my favorite Roulé songs. I don't have much else to say.

hi
Hello
im learning how to tie a perfect double bow
hi
Bowtie?
Why though? Just for fun?
And again, there's so much fog that we can't go above 30km/h
My school's route took me 1 hour today
sometimes, when you need to study you do other funny things instead
Relatable
The fog is coming
Golden Gate AI:
I love the new third tower they added.
There's only 2 on the Golden Gate?
In rl. That was just AI
get dat abhorrent outta here
I know, I was asking about rl
I think yes
I wish people didn't misuse AI like what they're doing right now
Yes
Well I’ll just put them on the #rubbish-bin if you want
As it should
AI images and 'art' are pure trash
It's genuinely disgusting to see how people misusing AI
Should've use it for something better
Our country's most iconic bridge stretches across one of the world's finest natural harbors.
From the Show: Aerial America: California http://bit.ly/2yrnkjB
Yeah it is really not good
Yeah see the lighting and angle are great but the shapes are always wonk.
Once AI gets better at this, people will have a hard time to check if it's real or not
People allready have a hard time
First, there were people fell into a explosion in White House AI image. Now, they fell into an eiffel tower caught on fire AI video
my brother uses it for his homework
why, it doesn't sound bad to just generate an image instead of spending time to find the perfect one on google images
I don’t always use AI much in my classes cuz what if AI do not do it properly
Good
Proper use, just do AI 2 times (not many times) on each day
Dunno but it’s either one of my propers…
It's not hard to find a image that is better than AI generated images lmfao
i dont really like ai, but its nice if you only want a profile image or a reference
depends what you're looking for
I use ai to give me ideas for names and things
trust me, I've used it for some very specific requests and it gets the job done
Yeah right
Dont worry i will die again
me failing miserably trying to generate an image of purple berries
Anyways imma start draw some sketches
Critical homework

@versed tendon me school did a big stupid again lmao
hii bun
What they be doin
Those happen yes
lol
next week Tuesday I'd have 3 exams, english writing B2, English listening/writing B1 and math Niveau 4
haiiii, 
wanna know what those idiots just figured out
Nope, even worse
Do tell
They planned me for an exam which isnt even held at that period nationally
aka
I got my Eng. Le/Lu B1 end of may
MAY
Basically hanoi today
Just noticed me?
thats 4 months or so from now
And that is your landelijk exam?
Instellend Examen iirc
yes
No its stupid
Sure is
they plan me for an exam which isn't even allowed to be held in that period by law, and they only just discovered today
a week before the exam
like bruh
Yeah, can't have that shi during national exams just you
Hence national
Wtf
Yet another example of the education failing :)
team tasty
yeah, and the government wonders why nobody trust our educational system
well, there's your prime example
even the teachers dont know shi
Jesse where are you from?
Understandable.
exactly
Schools are wack down there.
yep
well someones been sugarcoating the netherland schooling system for me then
It's a me
dont think he/she's dutch then, like 99/100 dutchies hate the system here
Besides communication, I had little to no beef with my high-school experience
And uni has been just great
Our educational system is a mess
Each year more and more students fail national math exams
Uni is better tho than highschool
And the general setup is still superior
Of level separation
well apparently its superior lol
to what i dont know
superior to screwing shi up lmao
superior to ours as ive been told lol

if there is something everyone should take from germany

take from germany
apple juice mixed with sparkling water was the best part of my visit to germany
taking away what?
what loss of context in LLM does to an LLM
I don't like the taste of water with sparkles but i know many do
Its a flavour you gotta enjoy, i just never did

@night sentinel that is quite far from the actual city lol
why would Ručiūnai station be a thing

yeah seems like for y'all route to Vilnius and PL border - Kaunas is still undecided
I really hope they will build Riga rail baltica instead of abandoning it
but like, why so many useless stops?
ok after closely inspecting it seems that only in Riga territory there will be useless stations
like Torņakalns??
Zasulauks???? why do you need that
Me when Zasulauks
Tornakalns
At least our names are pronouncing friendly

How to get old discord
huh how do you get these

ironic, I'm watching about M6 on youtube rn
i have this weird feeling like my computer's plotting something against me
like it's just gonna suddenly grow huge legs and arms
and then enslave humanity
"schitt" acts like he is not rich enough to afford to buy the world
hm
seeing how my pc is getting quite old i wonder if it'd be worth it for me to save up on a surface laptop
i don't see many better options
maybe i could get surface with all of its proprietary goodness
do yall know some good laptops with like a decent price to performance ratio or something
since it'd be most preferable if the laptop wasn't too expensive but was great for gaming and work
no idea

well i do got time when its procrastination but im actively doing my work
owh
explosions are never good
unless its a party popper
Except with new years eve
yes
Is the fire like
Anywhere near you?
Cause I'm pretty sure firefighters can at least prevent fire from spreading.
If not completely disquinsish the fire (or however you spell it)
Extinguish
I also live next to a hospital
Pretty sure that doesn't increase the risk tho?
Except if the fire is one or two blocks away
More Injurys and endless sleep
mornin'
hi xina
mornin lads and gents
hi bunny

hiiii fish
It's the opposite?
opposite
yes
@twilit scarab 13/15 without studying 😎
just got two questions about contestability wrong
my teacher aslo said she intentionally made it hard so she knows how much we understand the topics
And I got a 5.7 while studying for weeks for biology 😭
Well, average grade was a 5.6 so I am 0.1 above average.
out of 10?
i mean you cant really compare me and you
my subjects are understanding and in depth knowldge based
its not by hearting anything
you have names and stuff to learn in biology, i could never do that. Anyway last time I had a combined sciene exam, I got almost all my questions on biology incorrect
The annoying thing is, I get (almost) exactly the same grades for biology with studying as without studying
I think I have exam stress or something.
I am very lucky to not have to study for my exams most the time and still pass. But thats because I pay attention in class, ask questions and finish my works, homeworks and put in extra effort at home
thats entirely possible!
i usually perform better in exam settings cause less distractions
ello theorie bean!
I had one day I literally couldn't sleep for an exam I knew about very well
halloo
i usually sleep before 12 when i have an exam
i believe in having a good nights sleep
Same, except if studying is going really well, then I'll go nap around 1
i usually get in bed an hour before but with my laptop. that way my muscles can relx
I did listen to some chill jazz one time when I was stressed and it kinda worked.
i usually just learn after i wake up then lol, i aint staying up. thats just not productive enough
But within an exam week it's not easy to 'forget' about the exam next day.
I found 80's japanese city pop playlist yesterday when I was cleaning my house
really helped me to relax
I usually try to eat enough in the morning, calm down, drink something...
Just a moment to take some rest before the test.
drink something
two shots
Sometimes just read through something
i have a week of stress lol. studying is the hard part, exam is easyyy
you have headaches during exams?
Well exam wasn't really easy when I had concentration issues
No Dank was talking about taking 2 shots before
ooh that makes sense too, our exams give longer times if students request it (with medical reasons)
I don't have medical reasons
ill have to shots at you dank :)
@gritty sand
But I was pretty depressed for some time
if the doctor says you are getting distracted and need some time, they would give you
Due to my whole friendgroup (who were one year above me, as I chose to split one year in half) leaving.
They only give you extra time if they get something official. Like autism, ADHD, HDD, dyslexia...
she took a gap year and i started school early
I did half my exams previous year (Dutch, Math B, Art, CKV...)
Oh and Social Studies as well
So this year I only have a few subjects to finish
dutch? where are you from? netherlands?
English, Physics, Chemistry and Biology
Yessir
ah
I heard they're like a plaque over here?
i see the dutchies are taking over
yeah
theres remains, erk, quin and jesse and all at some point happened to be mods
i dont remember any of the other
Wow
but i think there was a couple more
No worries I, wont take over :))
not what they are saying 🧐
I'm too busy irl to be a dc server staff
I usually just try to settle in a community
Just talk a bit with people
you can take over the server by replacing all of the people here with dutch people
Talk about games, life, funny/interesting stuff
I think every education system has some flaws. But it's pretty alr, depending on where you are of course.
you hate it or no?
I think everyone "hated" school at some point.
But if you're talking about study-wise I do not really hate it.
Well I talk different about it when stressed
I'm not sure what's considered 'hating' in this case.
Cause I defo don't like most subjects.
@idle river look, this man doesnt hate the dutch educcation system either it seems :))
pink jesse :0
I think I'll definitely be different about it if I was on a different niveau
Cause we have (from highest to lowest) VWO, HAVO, and VMBO
never understood those but yall do you
If I was on VMBO I think I'd dislike it, pure by the fact that everyone tells you you have a basic ass future...
VWO = For highly intellegent people (not me).
HAVO = Higher education (where I'm at).
VMBO = Medium education.
hmm im gonna go get lunch but i probably cant
How so

Hi
using a pixel drawing app such as pixly
Do you have video instructions?
theres one on youtube by lsc, i recommend that one
listening music via discord
But for the window? Whats
huh
Hey, where did you get the green background?
Spotify doesnt know what to recommend anymore wth
lol
I listened to some Brasil and some old American jazz for the past weeks and my weekly is full with, 70’s Japanese jazz for some reason? And also just 70’s songs in general, not nescessarely jazz.
I mainly listened 30’s to 60’s music
Not really that I mind cause it still gave me some good songs
it usually recommends me afrobeat in general to me
and luk thung, which is thai folk music
It doesn't know what to recommend me because I went from alternative hip-hop (mainly jazz/soul and lyrical hip hop) to jazz
I think Spotify tries to interest me in Japanese jazz as I've listened to Nujabes a lot (a Japanese DJ/rapper/producer who's known as the trendsetter of lo-fi hip-hop and using a lot of jazz samples)
ah
It recommended me this song for example:
Obviously I recognize this one
But I really like it
dutch education system superior system
hm
I'd say the Swedish system is better.
interesting combo, math B and both art and CKV
what profile ya got
I got Art (beeldend) as extra subject
NT
Yeah. I've always liked art and it might help me in my future carreer
Cause I want to be an architect later
So some artistic skills could help me
Hbo at the HAN
Afterwards I'd have to go to University for a year or 1, 2? (Not sure how long)
for a master?
Yup
usually 2
what are yall gonna do if this was ur kid
is that just straight up hbo architectuur?
or is it like bouwkunde with a focus on...
'Bouwkunde'
gotcha
There's no specific architecture subject
yeah thats what i was wondering
figured it be in the flavour of bouwkunde studies xD
It's just... you can become an architect if you finished bouwkunde
I know civil technics works a lot with bouwkunde
guessing the NT over NG to skip out on biology then? xD
Like, doing projects together, mixed classes etc..
No, I got all the difficult subjects
I could've chosen between Biology and something else (forgot what it was called)
for the better tbh
Yeah
sounded like way too many group projects to be fun
Yeah but I suppose it's a little bit easier then biology
fair enough, biology did suck
Especially for me, as I have physics
my lowest grade on the results
For me it's physics sadly
Math B was my best, physics is my worst.
Math B was pretty easy
Never got why people didn't like it.
It's just simply rules, and you imply them
That's it
wasnt for me
redid year 5, and tried maths B for a year because i had all maths A grades locked in regardless
didnt stick
too abstract for me at the time
had to learn it all in my study after anyway but that was somehow more doable?
I am doing half-exams
maths A was just very logical, could use the GC for all
Previous year I was half in 4th and half in 5th doing my exams
interesting construction
Nailed it, now I have only a few subjects in 5th to finish
so this year half year 5 and half exams?
wait nvm, 5 years is it my bad
thats nice though, less to focus on at a time
Yeah
think physics is gonna be the biggest obstacle then in bouwkunde?
It's still kinda difficult with Physics, Chemistry, KUA and Biology tho
Yeah...
Luckily I'm good at math
that should help with physics, in the end it is applied maths
physics is applied maths, and chemistry is applied physics
Exactly
Chemistry and physics are completely different here tho...
We mainly work with reactions at chemistry
How different substances react with each other etc
BINAS tabel 45 iirc xD
Redox reactions, my last test was about that
the highschool bible
God bless BINAS
oh i mean we got to keep the actual book
just not allowed to use it in further education
cant be sure, dont have experience with hbo, but I imagine its similar
For now I just really wanna be done with school
wanna get the well deserved long summer break
Yeah and I wanna meet some new people sometime yk...
As my friendgroup passed the exams, I am the only one left
new city
And tbh the people here aren't really... great
There's or really really nerdy people or just straight up assholes
Yo can someone tell if I can play this game on pc
you can, it is available on steam!
luckily in your study you will be with people who all at least have one thing in common with you
For free?
In between there's just loners, like me
the steam version is the premium version, meaning there are no ingame purchases or diamonds, which does cost i believe 5-7 bucks
True, my friends are all really positive about it
if you want to play it on pc for free, you can use an emulator to run the game, such as bluestacks
good, can recommend indeed
Oh thanks bro
im sure you'll enjoy it, most people do
Yeah
just make sure to eat healthy every now and then when you move out xD
I am not really planning to move out yet
also fair enough, saves you lots of money to live at home first
I live a bit outside Nijmegen and my study will be in Arnhem
ah, especially with that commute yea
So I can easily take the train
If I'm gonna move out I'll defo rather live in Nijmegen then in Arnhem
i do recommend that if you want to move to a student home, sigh in early. wait times are crazyy
That's do-able
you can usually just sign up, and leave it be for years collecting waittime
Especially in Nijmegen yeah...
Sadly I live in a village where the average age is around 70
oof
vergrijzing hitting hard
Yeah both positive and negative at the same time
Like, it's not fun but it's a reaction to a 1st world country (which leads to population decrease)
Urn shaped
had geography did ya?
good good
And the teachers were pretty cool too
In general teachers at my school are chill
But wby? You're going to college or...
good teachers can make or break a subject yea
im in uni yea
currently wrapping up my bachelors thesis, and about to start a minor to get my highschool teaching license
What subject?
earth sciences
earthsciences in general is a very broad study, everything from geology to geography. say volcanos earthquakes climate rivers dunes etc
but you choose tracks within it to focus on only a few areas within the study
im following two tracks of surface dynamics and water/climate
hi
so you'll catch me looking at river systems, coastal systems, and the likes
but since i like a bit of everything, thought why not also get a teaching license for it, good backup to have
goodafternoon!
to you too how have you been?
busy but good, how about yourself
eh tired as always
You want to be a teacher?
Or just to get that extra degree
ikr
currently working a lot with so called remote sensing, using satellite data/imagery to do among other things, risk assesment for geohazards
which ive been enjoying so far
That's cool
something in that direction would be great
What kinda projects do you do for example?
currently finishing my thesis using similar concepts
using satellite data to see if we can find patterns in the coastal vegetation and dune erosion after storm events
to hopefully better our understanding of how dune vegetation can help in stabalizing dunes and possibly prevent erosion
Thats sick
Is it specified to dunes (natural things) or does it also have to do with technology etc?
Cause it sounds like something that'll involve a lot of technics
the aim itself is focussed purely on the effects on the dune
but the study requires quite the technics yea
using processing systems to classify vegetation automatically from satellite imagery etc
but the results have no impact on new technology systems or the likes
Aha
So it mainly focusses on nature
And the effects on nature
And effects of nature
yes, its focussed on the foredune specifically, which is the biggest/first dune on the beach facing the ocean
so the very first line of defence from flooding during storm surges
and if you pick a study that you find enjoyable, such big projects are a blast to work on
unlike highschool xD
Yeah I heard from friends that it's difficult, but way more fun.
Good afternoon
Everything I do at school is just, boring
Afternoon Wolfgang!
Talking about your schools?
Schools/carreer/study yes
Great people should talks about great things
I suppose things like climate change also play a big part in your study?
oh definitely
most if not all subjects are influenced to some degree by climate change
especially working with river and coastal systems, a big part is the response to climate change
I have no words
Interesting
A classmate of mine didn't know what the holocaust was when our history teacher asked
yikess
And take a wild guess what the classmate does all the time
Just sits on the phone and does nothing
I feel like I'm kinda double/hypocrite about climate change
Cause I tend to care for climate but am also a car fanatic
I do support electric cars tho, just not tesla due to designs
that is one of the tough takes about it yeah
I for one am very aware of the implications of climate change through my studies, but along that, I am also interested in seeing more of the world, most places of which you can't realistically travel to without planes
Yeah, I just hope there's enough investment in research.
Like, there's almost no 2nd hand market for electric cars which makes them extremely expensive (as you gotta buy them from a dealership), if they put more research in electric cars they could make them more durable and thus create a 2nd hand market for them.
But in comparison, planes and yachts are much worse then cars. So I feel like we have to invest more into that as well (as the world is mainly focussing on cars).
unless of course you're the only one competent or punctual
Either way, happy birthday, enjoy one of the special days you get a year.
People my age are still making "skibidi" jokes and showing brainrot humor here.
I hate school so much lol.
Oops I was talking with a bday boy and not realizing?
Happy Bday RemainsStay and dank!!
@night sentinel happy birthday!!! 🍰
Happy birthday Oster
Yeah, there is slight progress into research of electric planes, but those are still a long shot away
And thanks for the bday wishing latvia ja and bram
Thanks you too
Isn't the weather lovely
ik there's some concepts, but I feel like they're doing more about the car industry then airplanes and yachts combined while those two have a bigger impact on climate change.
Not saying they should stop making electric vehicles. I think they should just work more on vehicles in particular.
Oh 100%
Though with that, everything that needs energy is currently still mostly powered with fossil fuel generated energy
Which is also a big part of the energy transition
As much as governments are skeptical (because most politicians know squat about science) building sustainable sources such as nuclear power plants is needed
Nuclear power plants are questionable...
I'd rather live next to some wind turbines and solar panels then a Nuclear power plant
They are indeed
It went wrong and almost went wrong a couple times.
All I know is that we have developed safer alternatives, like using thorium instead of uranium, that can be shut down 100× faster
And if it goes wrong, it usually means a whole pandemic
It does, but the other side is rhat the amount of accidents that happen in coal mines across the world has caused way more death so far than nuclear accidents
Yeah, but there's also solar and wind turbines, but those don't generate close as much I suppose?
You'd need a metric fuck ton of em yea
So TheoTown is right about that
hi remains
did i just read that there is 1000+ new messages?
Also in terms of saving on CO2 emissions, windturbines need to be replaced/updated every I believe 30 years, which makes them about as bad as not building them
Huge difference in types and location ofcourse but
It needs to he adapted to whatever fits the situation, and sometimes nuclear is the best option there
Hiya saturn
Very possibly so
But nuclear causes more pandemics then any other source?
It's not only about deaths, as we've used more fossil fuels
We have chernobyl yea, that was a big one
we're so barack
Also that one Japanese city
Yeah, but the Japanese one is different
Furushima or something?
I said we'd need to look at what suits the location best
oh we are on topic of nuclearity
And fukushima
We've had a few leaks and a few cracks...
Yeah, don't build nuclear plants in locations with earthquakes and tsunamis xD
Thing is, in case of a war going on, one might get hit by a missle/bomb which also leds to a high risk
We were scared for another nuclear explosion in Ukraïne a while back
i tried scrolling up to read them but then i gave up
i only took a nap cause i was so hungry but i couldnt eat :(
Lithuania used to have one atom station, and I think it is the only one in baltic states
And what if everythings durable and permanent at some point? We'll still be stuck with the nuclear waste.
also hi how are you doing Mr.Sloth
until 2004 and 2009
Yup, which we bury deep underground
We've left enough holes in the earth where we got al the fossil fuels from
That's a good point... but that doesn't mean there's no risk.
Oh definitely not
What if one collapses? Or in case of an earthquacke? Or another leak...
But the risk if we don't is that we won't fully transition and keep using fossil fuels untill there is nothing left in some 30-50 years
And then we won't have the infrastructure
To sustain our energy needs
That's also why I'm not nescessarely against nuclear power plants.
It's just, a big risk
If we get everything completely durable before we destroy earth, that'd be a much better solution of course.
It is yeah
what we do have is 3 hydro power stations
100%
it would have been 4
Hydro power is also big yea
if Daugavpils HES would become a thing
There's even technics to take CO2 away from the atmosphere
but thankfully? it did not
But also destroyed land downstream usually
Daugavpils HES was cancelled in 1986-1987 when local inhabitants protested
crazy that USSR has listened actually but Idk, is it good or bad?
it was planned 200 megawatts
Craziest plot twist
hi remains? :>
lol
but Daugava would be a very, very small river if it wouldn't be flooded
is that an enemy?
you see
linux bombing? 🤔
Daugava used to be extremely small river before 3 of those HES' became a thing
Guys,does Services like Education, Police, military,fire department and health Increase the Happiness and Wealthness of The City inhabitants
everything does
literally anything with an influence you can think of
What gives 'culture' actually?
Including Putting more Demaded Things
Cause my people don't like it I have nothing with culture
Idfk
