Thanks for sharing your story!

What medication would that be? I have found enzymes that seem to help with fructans and GOS, do you mean those?

I’ve heard of fecal transplants before, but that it’s simply unknown at this point if it helps with IBS. Hypnosis seems to be helpful for some people as well.

Maybe just let people enjoy whatever game they like?

Sometimes you can’t get around it though.

I think that is okay because there was no intent to create pornography there. It is a political statement. As far as I am concerned that falls under free speech. It is completely different from creating nudes of random people/celebrities with the sole purpose of wanking off to it.

It’s not always straightforward. I work as a software developer at a company which creates scientific measurement instruments. These instruments are used to do research into new battery types, and make cement greener. But they are also used extensively by the fossil fuel industry. I do struggle with the ethics of this.

For now I’ve decided to keep doing the job and make good money. When we’ve figured some other shit out in our lives we’ll most likely move, and I’ll give it another shot to work a job which I feel better about.

Am I the only one who hates double negatives like this? Wouldn’t the title be much easier to understand if it was “Joe Bidens approval rating reaches new low”

A 20 minute bike ride. Not the most beautiful scenery but I still enjoy a bit of exercise in the morning.

Thank you for the kind words! I didn’t know I could maybe have these again at some point in the future. Did you just try them every now and again to see how you reacted? Do you still need to watch out?

I am very sad I can’t eat these anymore due to IBS

In theory it is possible, in practise it is not. Indeed there are a lot of parties covering the spectrum from left to right.

Because he doesn’t hold a majority. In the Netherlands parties must form a coalition to govern. It might be difficult to convince other parties to join the coalition given his stances. However, I do think Geert Wilders will become our prime minister. I’m very much hoping he’ll fuck up, the government will fall and a more reasonable person will take over.

I believe no party has ever held an absolute majority in the Netherlands. And there has only ever been one time in the Netherlands when the biggest party did not govern.

Personally, I see two options: the most likely is Geert Wilders will become our prime minister, or (less likely) there will be new elections.

Stuff about X-rays will be filtered, for example. You could probably go a little safer with the regex.

There’s no competing with Belgian beer, but I genuinely enjoy a Grolsch or Hertog Jan. There’s also quite a few great local breweries.

Does our beer have a bad reputation?

The problem with changing from company-owned servers to private servers is the question who will maintain the server software.

Making it open source is not always an option because I can imagine there is a lot of shared code with other projects which the company want to keep propriety. This means the company would have to maintain the code for others to be able to host the servers, which I doubt makes financial sense.

I guess that makes sense. Thanks for the insight!

Preface: I am no game developer, but I am a software developer

This comment does not make sense to me. There is no “simply” bringing any game to any other engine. Doing this is a huge undertaking and I can’t imagine not basically starting from scratch, saving the art assets and bits of pieces of the code (given it’s written in the same language).

In the Netherlands it’s Urk, although it’s not a province but a municipality
