Also really depends on the frequency and reason. Did something go horribly wrong once and does this one-time effort fix it or gives enough time for a decent solution down the road? Sure, I’ll put in some extra work. Don’t look for me though when it’s resolved, I’m on holiday with all the overtime I should’ve gotten. If it’s a structural problem because management wants to squeeze as much money out of their employees and refuses to hire enough people… Fuck that. And yeah, corporate uses the first thing as an excuse, luring you into staying longer “one more time, we really can’t do it without you”.

No, that’s another source of income.

At the end of the day, they’re still carbohydrates and theoretically could be broken down into Co2/methane/alcohol or other short carbon components.

Oh we definitely have racism. It’s just less “black lives matter” and more “only my skin colour matters”. And yeah, this definitely extends to the police too. But given they’re very, very scrutinised every time they dare pull their gun in public, at least we don’t have the “police raids wrong unit and shoots owner” happenings.

What is happening is still far from OK, any instance of racism is one too many, but the problems here are a bit more nuanced than what is in general shared on a public, overly-Americanized forum.

And in case you are American/Canadian/Australian, can I please point back to whatever is still happening to your native population? Not a single country is free from blame from what they did to other or their own nations. Call me butthurt, but I’m getting quite a bit tired of getting called out on the Congo on every single thread mentioning Belgium while that was mostly, originally one man’s doing. Again, nuance, I know more stuff happened afterwards, but it’s not relevant to this thread.

Somebody left the window open, plane fell out.

They also seem to lack vision straight above them if they’re sitting on a light surface. So if they land on your computerscreen or window when it gets darker, you can flick them and they won’t see you coming. This will only stun the things for a second, so be quick to actually kill them/pick them up and dispose of them.

I renovated a house from the ‘70s last year. We now have triple glazing instead of single panes, the roof and side of the house are inslutated, we got solar panels, water-saving showers, a greener water heater (would’ve loved to move away from gas, but my budget only stretches so far and the asbestos roof will have to be replaced in a couple of years), and soon the driveway will have its’ non-porous gravel replaced with pavers designed to let water through.

Global warming won’t be fixed by that, but if we all start making greener choices when we can I have hopes we can avert the worst.

Dutch, not Belgian.

I don’t get it, are those exponentials? But why the +0 then, they could’ve just put 1…

I think so, never used huitante before, but then I’m Flemish, not Walloon.

So does Walloon French.

I don’t speak Spanish at all, but I really wish more languages would adapt it. It’s so much easier to interpret a sentence knowing it’s meant to be a question or exclamation right from the start.

Good. Ship the thing off to a museum, slap a label on it and use it to educate people. Lest we forget.

Fuck cancel culture.
