On a slightly related note: could any US lemmings tell me why non-catholic christians in the US are so involved with the pope?

I have a friend from KY who went to Rome and everything. I asked her why, since she’s protestant, and she genuinely did not understand the question. Her entire family was praying for the pope. And they are methodists?

I have some catholics in my family and they would not bat an eye if the patriarch of Constantinople died. They consider orthodox Christians or protestants as a different religion.

It’s a scene from Reynaert the fox It’s arguably the most amazing text that survived in medieval Dutch. Earliest versions date back to the 13th century.

It’s full of trickery and very dark humor.

Here’s a more recent depiction of the scene: Klokkenspel

I’ve literally done more with a cargo bike.

Yeah, I’m lucky I got in way before the changes. I think new users are stuck with having to pay for everything? Now I just can’t access the multi-day rides, which is inconvenient if I want to go bikepacking, but the workarounds are fine.

And yeah, they will probably find a way to make older users pay for basic features too.

I used to love how they didn’t have a subscription model. Just buy the maps once and you’re set.

I’m fine with it if women are allowed to be polygamous as well.

It’s a great app and it really does help to avoid waste, but… I know a few businesses that went from donating their leftovers to charities for the poor to selling them through TGTG, because that way, they still make some money off of it.

They are getting quite common in my city. There are several nests.

I liked it a lot, more than Tidal (what I have now). But the last few months with Qobuz I had streaming issues, because of something on their end. It was a freak issue though. The catalgue was absolutely wonderful especially if you’re into jazz like me. It allowed you to browse record labels too, which I sorely miss.

I switched because of the streaming issues and because tidal has a connect option, which allows me to send music without compression over wifi to my stereo, natively from tidal (spotify has it too, but lower quality sound)
