But as you said, it’s only done in very very formal situations. Usually army/navy/airforce dinners and such. You almost never see it anywhere else.

I feel like this is a global thing but here it goes When serving dinner the women are served first, then the men. They do this from oldest to youngest.
So, first person to get food/wine/water/wtv served is the oldest woman, and the last person to be served is the youngest man…
Edit: I got the tittle wrong I thought it was only formal setting stuff. This is only done in very formal settings. Like an extremely important ceremony on the military branches of my country for instance.
21·9 months agoI grew up watching pewdiepie playthroughs. Then when I was in my late teens early 20s he went too edgy and I lost interest.
He has changed dramatically since. He’s content is very wholesome again, he’s now a father (wth) and he’s living in Japan. I looove their Japan vlogs. So much so that it gave me the confidence to visit Japan this year… Twice.

Fruits. I don’t have the habit of eating any fruit. It’s super unhealthy and when I do remember to buy fruit when grocery shopping, I am always surprised how good it tastes, only to forget about it for a couple more months…
I did just that about 7 or so years ago. Only gave my number to family members and really close people (maybe 5 at most). Also deleted all my social media.
One of the best decisions of my life.
Unfortunately, I was just getting started on “the real world” and would get any job thrown my way. One of them required me to reply to my manager on WhatsApp so I ended having to create one and give them my number. I’ve since left that job and I’m now no longer a junior in my field, but still feels feels bad on my record :(
League of legends.
Absolutely despised it, thought it was just pointless since progress doesn’t really carry over from match to match, so what’s the point?
Eventually gave it a go back in 2011 and never got rid of it. Took me a while to get into it too, I’d only play because of my brother and with friends on teamspeak but eventually got reeeeally into it.
These days I don’t have time, or at least don’t want to invest it, for rankeds or even SR (5x5) so I mostly play ARAMs and some of the riot forge games (LOTRK, song of nunu). Looking forward for the mmo, really love the universe and I loved the TV show too.

Well to add to that then, Microsoft outlook also has a free alias service, which work as a redirect email that you can enable/disable at will. But I believe there’s a limit to those, so I just use my Gmail address most times.
When registering for stuff I always pay very close attention to not check the “send me offers and promotions” checkbox, unless I am genuinely interested.
If any gets by, or if any by default signs you up, whenever I get an email from them I’ll go to the bottom of the email and unsubscribe.
This means that all the marketing emails are from things that I genuinely have interest on. Sometimes, even these things get too spammy and unsubscribe from those that kinda act abusive. They aren’t your “FREE LIMITED IPHONES! OPEN NOW!” kind of emails. Those I mark as spam, hoping to improve the detection system on whatever email client, and move on.
So, essentially, I have “free time” to read those as much as you and I have “free time” to come here on lemmy. It’s something I am interested on.
Edit: just realised I didn’t specifically answer your questions but it’s basically:
- Just a regular guy.
- I am interested in the ones I do get.
- Sometimes before sleep or when I go to the bathroom I look at emails/lemmy/others.
Edit2: I think there’s a distinction to make here between SPAM emails and Newsletters. SPAM emails are mostly sent based on leaked emails lists or something. Newsletters, you usually sign up for them (knowingly or not).
Edit3: Bonus ProTip - If you use Gmail you can get a + sign after your email and before the @ symbol and whatever your write on there is ignored. So for instance myemail+otherwords@gmail.com will still forward to myemail@gmail.com . This means you can kind of find out who leaked your email if you register as “email+websitename@gmail.com”, however this tip is getting known a bit more so some websites now sanitize your email and it won’t work as intended… :(
Also, if for some reason you’ll be using the email as the login it can be kinda crap.
Sorry for the long comment :) interesting topic.
That’s sounds like an amazing time. I felt relaxed just reading your description of it… 🥲
I think I overall prefer digital, but on e-ink devices mostly.
I like that they don’t take up space, I can download them quickly and not have to go to the bookstore or order it online and wait for it to be delivered. Also I can sync it on multiple devices and read on my kindle when I really want to have a good reading experience but if I forget it or am waiting for the bus or something, just pull up the kindle app on my phone and everything is synced.
On the other hand, growing up with a lot of books I kinda miss the feel and smell of physical books. Also I feel like they are a bit more… “permanent”.
No one said the rest aren’t good in some areas but if BG3 is clearly the winner then why pretend it’s not?
I just don’t watch the ceremony I guess… I just see the results afterwards
If it’s that good or deserves to be awarded, no?
I get what you mean but, what do you suggest? Not praising it?
These are a few of the classics. All of these are kinda short, ranging from a few seconds to a couple of minutes, I always watch them again when I feel like I need a laugh:
And don’t forget you also have the option to go refurbished if you want to save some money!
Just got back from Japan. I’m always surprised when I’m in the middle of nowhere and the public restrooms have heated sitting, deodorizer, bidet, background sounds. Like… Wtf? That’s better than my toilet at home. And I’m not even from the US 🙃
Note sure if I’m wooshed or you haha I was quoting a stupid ad that would roll before every movie in the 2000s.
Ah, I read it wrong. Somehow my half asleep brain thought he put the blanket on the heater…
