The G is silent in English words starting with gn. Gnarly gnats is pronounced narly nats.

There's not a lot of those words anyway

Gnu and gnome are exceptions only when used to describe the software. The gnu animal and the mythical gnome creature are pronounced with silent gs.

I know it's completely off-topic, but anyway. No, I'm fine with the rake. That's what's makes it funny.

It's the drawing of the skater that is too good, and that doesn't add up with the other details being wrong. Someone who can draw a skater that good wouldn't make the other things that wrong or even random.

The rake is drawn as doing a frontside shove-it, popped from mid-air and failing because of gravity suddenly changing in the middle of the sequence. The skater is "obviously" doing a varial heelflip instead of a frontside shove-it.

So that's the clue to why I thought it was drawn off an actual picture. That the background is also a copy of the original only reaffirms my theory.

In hindsight I can also see that the skater is obviously Andrew Reynolds. The tuck and landing is his signature style.

The last picture in the meme always bothered me, because the sequence doesn't make any sense physically. (Popping the rake from mid air and doing the wrong flip and such)

So, I went on to find the sequence that I believe it was drawn from.

Japanese working culture is ... different.

Tl:dr;

The top-cited reason for using resignation agencies, at 40.7%, was that companies refused to let them quit. Other reasons included fear of backlash if they resigned alone or their work environment discouraged employees from quitting independently.

I'm going with "no", because it's a shit product for the environment when you have batteries and electronics fitted into rubber. If the battery runs out, the electronic breaks or the rubber wears out, the entire product is likely to be discarded and burned together.

If you want to attach small lights to your shoes, go ahead. You can then also transfer the lights to your next pair of shoes, change the battery and repair or discard of everything separately.

It's mentioned in the article.

Not officially. It was removed in 2023.

Makes sense. They buy guns because they're scared of people.

It would be interesting to have such a statistic. Perhaps there was such a day more recently than we think.

Today's not that day though. https://www.worldometers.info/

Oh no. How will the AI ever learn anything if it can't read somebody's shitpost in a political forum on the fediverse.

I honestly think the AI will be smarter from not being able to read his posts.

Det her er ikke bare et udemærket nummer, men simpelthen en sublim optræden. Jeg forstår ikke hvorfor de aldrig udgav den version. Den er langt bedre end album-versionen.

Nummeret er også en god opvarmning for stemmebåndet hvis man har lyst til selv at spille. Videoen her viser også hvorfor man ikke kan stole på online tabs. Han spiller jo bare i G med en capo. På den måde er akkorderne enkle "pædagog akkorder" og lyder bedre på den måde.

 

Jeg skal reparere murværk omkring en yderdør i en kælder. Tømreren som lavede døren har slået ret store stykker af muren af omkring hele murhullet, så det er lidt mere end en tynd pudsning som skal til.

Jeg vil ikke bygge en lysning af træ/gips men bare mure op, pudse og male. Det passer bedst med resten af kælderen hvor det hele bare er gammelt murværk og puds.

Jeg tænker på at lave midlertidige støtter af brædder for at få det nogenlunde lige, særligt i toppen, men det bliver alligevel nogle dybe ujævnheder som skal udfyldes. Jeg er derfor i tvivl om det kan gøres med "universal mørtel" som måske kun er egnet til tynd pudsning eller om der skal bruges noget mere cement-agtigt som kan holde til større dybde. Altså, jeg vil hellere lave en god solid fyldning end at skulle vente på at 10 lag af tynd puds tørrer. Jeg kan ikke rigtigt finde sådan et produkt?

Skal/kan man evt. fylde op med mindre stykker mursten eller andet undervejs?

Hvordan gør man?

How do I best view tabs from pages like ultimate guitar and others on a phone browser, so that the chords and lyrics match up? I know on pc they usually show up fine in notepad or with ASCII fixed sys font, but I can't quite figure out how to set it up for easy browsing on an android phone. I tried copying it to other apps but none of them have a fixed width font.

How do you do it?

Denmark - Saba - Sand (www.youtube.com)
 

Denmark just had the national entry contest today.

The winner was Saba with the song "Sand". Linked in the post.

The top three final also included the 2014 winner Basim with the song "Johnny" and Janus Wiberg from Faroe Islands with the song "I need your love". Both received more audience votes than the winner, but the jury votes had put Saba ahead from the start.
