I remember the best beer I ever had was Apollo Galaxy by Pivovar Matuska. I'm sure any beer from that company will be very good, try to find some.
also, while you're in eastern europe, drink as much of the blue elderflower fanta as you can. then for breakfast each morning eat pickles, bologna, boiled eggs and kvass. it will acclimate you to the new envirornment, and actually start to CRISPR slav genes into you.
this might violate some site rule about being pleasant, but this question is unfortunately the sort that the left needs to learn to answer with the very unpleasant "What's stopping you?". If you're interested in this, you should dig into it, develop an approach, and try to test it. the fundamental issue is that the left is minuscule, and there aren't many people who are interested in learning theory, and not many people are interested in teaching it, so no matter what, the first step is going to be more educators stepping up and trying to grow an audience, each of which will be a far more valuable testing ground for the different approaches one could have to education.
Sandisk used to make good ones. There was even a community that made open source OS called Rock box which could play Doom and Opus. They replaced it with a model that couldn't be flashed, and now they've stopped making that too.
wow, this is just like my Murakami novels.
Live Klein Reaction:
He's credited, but neither side is really claiming ownership of specific elements. The story and setting of Eldenring is very similar to other Fromsoft titles, and not that similar to George's work. there is also the complexity of collaborating between a US author and Japanese studio. I would guess George didn't do all that much for the finished game, though I do sense the character genealogies, and names like Godfrey and Godrick are his touch.
yeah, that's what I was thinking. the book they were adapting was actually an episodic anthology, yet rather than do 1 chapter per episode, They decided a non-linear timeline, without even showing up front that they were doing events out of order, and pointless changes to make it their own, which ironically was just copying themes and tropes from other popular franchises like Game of Thrones.
It's an open world boss-battler, it would be impossible to adapt without some kind of spin.
also, the movie will establish the big sword build as the canon Elden Ring build.
CGP Grey suggests we should get rid of all coins but the quarter, and points out that when the penny was first minted, it had more buying power than a quarter does today, at a time when all transactions were done in cash. It has a certain appealing simplicity, 4 big coins = one dollar. decimal values would still be possible by debit, so it would avoid the nonsense of the British pence and shilling non decimal shit.
Americans will never use dollar coins. I thought 1 and 2 euro coins were convenient, you could try introducing them for the 12th time once you get rid of the other coins, but then again, China and supposedly Russia and India too, everyone is mostly fine using a QR code.
I'll be honest, I only read this article to make sure I was literate. Can report, I am one of the smarty pants who can read Bleak House. this system of measuring literacy by levels 1-5 seems most common in Britain, and the test was done on Americans at two Kansas universities. The Dicken's passages seem to contain some culturally specific clues, though would the results be an different if they used Melville instead of Dickens? Maybe not.
Level 5 Literacy is basically the same, but across multiple sources at once while being critical: "Adults can search for, and integrate, information across multiple, dense texts; construct syntheses of similar and contrasting ideas or points of view; or evaluate evidence based arguments. Adults understand subtle, rhetorical cues and can make high-level inferences or use specialised background knowledge."
I expect this competency to be demonstrated by a graduate with a Bachelor degree, this sort of literacy is equally important in STEM. I think my friends when I studied Engineering could do it, but I was friends with strivers, and I met a lot of idiots in random assigned group projects, and they graduated in the same class as me.

European Green Lizard
You'd think they would've found the head color more remarkable, but decided the 90% of it's body that's green was descriptive enough. maybe since it's from Europe, they were named this lizard long enough ago that they considered blue and green the same color.
What happened here?
