Yup...i can confirm that
  • shit I was planning on learning programming starting from python... so what now? I've got some high-school level microcontroller C memories, and I'm proficient with Ladder and simple Instruction List. I tend to learn by doing, that's why I was going for Python, it felt like I could make something straight away.

    An olive oil war rages between Italy and Spain.
  • Italy has a fraction of the territory of Spain, of which a fraction is usable in agriculture (Italy is mostly mountains), and a fraction of that can be used for Olive trees. Of course Spain has more yield, with their immense spaces and flat fields.

    As for selling more or less, it's just a supply chain thing, Italian companies were better placed to sell it, but the bottle clearly states when it's Italian oil and when it's not.
    These sort of antagonizing takes intra-EU are not helpful.

    What's your stance on "donating" blood plasma?
  • Italy, actually. It's bonkers to me how the labor movement, so strong in the USA at the start of the past century, is so weak nowadays.

    For example it's outrageous to me that you hold voting on a work day while not making it a national holiday or day off of some sort.

    What's your stance on "donating" blood plasma?
  • Depending on what you donate, you may have to wait 3 months between one donation and the next, we often donate whole blood; Plasma donations must be at least two weeks apart I think. I'm pretty sure there must be a limit to the numbers of days off you can get. It's all managed through the national mutual assitance org, the employer must seek reimbursement through them as they would for sick days.

    Alpha
  • Not sure, but I think the bad wolf study is the one that established the "alpha" bullshit. I have no idea about the erotica but the thing about bioessentialism is mocking the belief that humans and animals have fixed unchangeable characteristics... Such that a "weak" male will always be so, or some such crap.

    Idk really

    Portuguese court ruling condemns Ryanair for cabin bag charges
  • There are people who carry 50kg of fat on the plane, you can't bother me for a backpack. You can't bother them either as that would be discrimination

  • I think 1kg spools are too much, I want to experiment with ALL THE COLORS... But few manufacturers offer 250g, and they are sometimes twice the cost by weight. !

    >Today, on February 28, nearly five years after Control’s initial launch, Remedy Entertainment, the team behind the Alan Wake, Quantum Break, and Control series, released an announcement regarding a deal between them and 505 Games, detailing a full transition to Remedy acquiring full rights to the franchise. While Remedy Entertainment previously developed the game with 505 Games having publishing, distribution, and marketing rights over Control, this latest transaction converts this authority to Remedy, giving them full rights over Control, Control 2, and their upcoming multiplayer game currently under the code Condor.
