I told this joke to French people and they did not understand it, so here it is for your entertainment:
My best friend since childhood is a lesbian, a beautiful woman, married to this amazingly gorgeous model.
I was the best man at their wedding!
Anyway, she and her wife asked me what I wanted for my birthday and I told them.
And so they offered me a Rolex, which is great, but I don't think they understood when I said "I wanna watch".
it's amazing the number of people who think that, because they are on a bike or electric moped, they have right of way no matter the color of the traffic light.
Here is a hint: if the light is red, pedestrians are allowed to cross the road, not matter how fast or slow you are going.
This post brought to you by the __________ on the electric moped who zoomed past me and a dozen other people crossing the street.

I mean, I am just a skull floating in the ether, spewing nonsense at you. So why don't you switch off the phone or the computer (or both!) and go outside?
I have heard the weather is lovely for the month of October.
Today is the day Love of my Life celebrates another successful revolution around our common star.

Yup, both in the number of moderators acting and the speed with which everyone banned him.
It was like unanimous: one good look at the content and we were all "Ewwwww... Suspend suspend suspend suspend!".
I mean, when I say 25 seconds, it's really 25 seconds, give or 5 seconds.
When not one, not two, but THREE moderators suspend your account within 25 seconds of each other...
Well, let's just say it is time to rethink your life priorities!

Do you need to transfer files back and forth?
Go Android.
Do you want Apple rich (but closed) ecosystem?
Go iPhone.
To me a phone is a work tool, I want the maximum configurability. Android. All the way.
Would you like to buy that dream house? That dream car?
Would you like to travel and see the world?
Or simply balance your budget?
Here is the secret "they" don't want you to know! It's simple, and anyone can do it!
Inherit millions from Mom and Dad! All your money problems will evaporate and you'll be free to enjoy life!
Mom and Dad don't have any money? Tough being you, sucker!
This message was brought to you by every conservative party everywhere.
What if the Neanderthals were the ultimate expression of kindness, intelligence and respect?
And we were the ones who were the ugly, selfish,violent, disgusting mutant weirdoes who ended up killing ALL the good guys?
Think about that for a second.
Because it actually explains A LOT.

And, if you send spammers straight to voice mail, you sometimes find a long list of blocked numbers in your call history, without being disturbed... pure bliss... 😊
@5f9bb1a8
Interesting article, thanks!
Spam call blocking is definitely a killer feature of the Google ecosystem. I love the fact every call from an unknown number is now followed by a little button that says: "Mark this as spam"...

It's not that surprising, since the radio at Fort Collins has been designed to broadcast a time signal over most of the US, Canada and Mexico.
These guys have several radio masts that are over 100m high.
This is a part of public infrastructure that is truly fascinating - how to give everyone over a continent the exact same time.
And Casio was able to miniaturize this and put it inside a watch. And THEN they over-engineer that watch to resist everything!

@3aa006c3
Why not both? 😂
I mean the watches are not talking, they just tell me they got time sync!
This being said, i have been able to get sync in the USA, in New York of all places, and that's pretty far away from the US time station!

@b9081348@3aa006c3@5e747d35
I am a lot luckier than you guys, since I am in Europe, and probably relatively close to the DCF 77 Mainflingen radio station.
I also have a Waveceptor and Titanium ProTrek, and I just leave them under a window during the night, they get synchronized every time!
Bonus: since they are both solar powered, they get charged when I am wearing the GulfMaster!
