The offline installer requires you to download ~28 4GB files manually so I passed on that. I installed on Linux with Heroic Game Launcher so I'm not sure if it installs the "GOG Galaxy version" if there even is a difference. The game is wired to run redprelauncher.exe rather than bin/Cyberpunk2077.exe so maybe that's just that.

Anyhow, the launcher is skippable if you add a --launcher-skip param.

I, for one, like reggaeton. Although I first got to listen to it at a dance school that taught how to dance to it. Which arguably, is the way to experience it first. There is a difference between say, Bad Bunny's "Moscow Mule" and Don Omar's "Dale don dale"/Don Chezina's "Tra tra tra"/Wisin & Yandel's "Mayor que yo".

I think Rosalia's Motomami is relatively easy to enjoy although it's a sub-genre (neoperreo). I think it's hard to enjoy if you start with the top albums on Rateyourmusic. Don't get me wrong - Plan B's "Love and Sex" is a great classic, althought you need to be a bit further down the funnel ("brainwashed") to enjoy it.

You need to ask your tailor to elaborate on what he meant. Maybe your pants are twill weave rather than denim and that's it. There's no "real gold denim standard" and we're all just guessing what your tailor could've meant here

It seems like you just want to make sure you're getting your money's worth and not buying some scam. I think for bang for buck Wrangler 13MWZ Rigid is unbeatable as it's $30 in the USA (stupid high marin in EU though). This model in particular seems to fit your needs as I read about people just buying a new exact same pair after a few years. So you can just decide on thrm and keep buying the same unchanged cut.

You can get used Levi's 501 on Vinted if you're in Europe as an alternative to overpriced 13MWZ in EU.

I'm not colourblind, but being a man you are "lucky" the societal expectation is that you'll dress conservatively, which includes colours. One could say your colour choices are not that much your own as you think.

One time I was walking around Matera in Italy and there were lots of clothes drying on clotheslines outside people's windows. I was thinking maybe they should change the colours on the flag to black, brown and navy, because that's all they wear.

It is not possible to comfortably wear anything else today than a baseball cap or a bucket hat if you can pull it off. Maybe panama hat if it's hot outside.

I just want to be adequately protected from the sun while following the societal expectations of dress.

I like clothes. When flying was a bigger deal people would dress up. With the democratisation of air travel, nobody does any more. Still, in my head it's an "excuse" to dress up due to the old etiquette. It feels good to me to arrive at a new place and look put together while I'm at it.

Brakuje mi puenty w tym tekście. Chciałbym żeby to był zwiastun jakiejś odwilży elegancji ale to takie tam marzenia. Ludzie chodzą w dresach i klapkach po ulicy.

Leopold Tyrmand pisał (pewnie r. ~1950):

Nie podoba mi się nowa moda. Po ulicach warszawskich snuje się mnóstwo młodych ludzi w tak zwanych dresach. Dres jest to rodzaj kostiumu, używanego w sporcie, do treningu lub dla ochrony przed zimnem w czasie oczekiwania na start... Zrobiony jest najczęściej z grubej bawełny, utrzymany w kolorze danego klubu i opatrzony jego emblematem. Szanujący się sportowiec i zawodnik używa dresu tylko wyłącznie do przejścia z szatni na boisko, do treningu w czasie chłodu lub przypatrując się zawodom przed własnym startem... w grę wchodzi jedna z najistotniejszych konwencji cywilizacji współczesnej

fajny artykuł

Hmm it seems to fit more the "fun co-op game with up to 4 friends" category which I also like and I added it to my wishlist. Although I feel as if those games assume you will be playing with friends and the puzzles are normally more difficult as a result - i.e. there's no matchmaking to play with randoms. The game PEAK notoriously has no server browser for example. It's difficult to put into words but it's not a genre where you'd feel satisfaction that you had a good game because of chemistry with a team of random people.

To me the problem is ideological. If you buy the a world ETF - like WEBG - 60% of the stocks in it are American. You read all the news about those companies being shitty and yet to get the best return on your income you need to invest in them.

There's also CEUG (EU stocks without "unsustainable" companies, from European company Amundi) but then you balance with other regions and it's "wrong" to have 100% home bias.

I remember once a night train startup mailed me that they are issuing bonds to help fund opening new connections. That was cool, as opposed to investing in Nvidia. Then again, investing with your heart is not the most minmaxed, so it's wrong.

The total in the case is $942m. It's also not the only major lawsuit. It's still not a lot but the people commenting should at least read the article before posting. Be better than Reddit

A vast majority of the money, totaling $420m [of the $567m figure], will go towards treatment of harms Meta's platforms have already caused, through the funding of "appropriate clinical or other behavioral health programs and professionals," according to the order.

In addition, Meta was ordered to:
Eliminate "like" counts for users under 18
Ban push notifications for such users every day between 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM and to ban such notifications during the typical school year between 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM, except on weekends
Implement a mandatory usage limit for such users of 90 cumulative hours per month across Instagram and Facebook, or about three hours per day
