I keep recommending Tribler and I don't know why it's not more popular. Anything wrong with it?

Cigarettes when I got some long pain and it actually started to hurt when I breathed in the smoke. Stopped alcohol completely at the same time.

I kept it up for almost a month.

Trying to fit something in the box?

We used to get more and more disk space until we got SSD. I hate modern laptops having just 1 TB drives and having to connect external drives all the time.

I've got at least 400 GB in photos, an 80 GB music collection, then the OS needs space, maybe you'll have multiboot, and maybe you also want some games that somehow require many gigs nowadays. I've got 3 TB in my laptop and I'm constantly cleaning up to have some space.

If you want to lie straight on your back and it's really cold, you have to choose to cover either your feet or your chest.

I got exactly one day off for the funeral after a parent's cancer but it's not really comparable. Becoming a parent doesn't exactly happen against your will. I may as well take a dog and claim I need time off to walk it.

They already are. Months of parental leave, come back, make another child, get another couple of months off. If the money is it there to allow this, why can't we get some kind of sabbatical

In elementary school you needed to ask and take some wooden tag from the class room. Couldn't go if the tag was gone, so only one person at the time. In middle school you don't ask, you just say you're going.

Netherlands btw

I kept my account because I was afraid of losing people I may want to contact again at some point. But I think half my contracts disappeared already. I also kept it for Messenger but everyone I write switched to WhatsApp (it's strange that this got even more popular since Meta bought it?)

Yeah I have the account still but basically never use it since updates from friends were replaced by people sharing news articles and memes – there are other sites for that.

I actually wanted to write an old contact just today but found out all old messages are gone somehow 🤷

Virgin olive oil and I use as little as possible (probably not even a tea spoon) because it's so expensive. It's only because my girlfriend wants it and buys it with work benefits – my mother only used butter for everything when I grew up.

I've never heard of avocado oil but judging by the price of a single avocado, it's probably not for people like me.

I remember Death Clock from my middle school times (early 2000s) https://web.archive.org/web/20080510112324/https://www.death-clock.org/

It was popular enough that I was asked to calculate classmate's death dates for them (not many people had internet yet).
