Schlemmy , 3 months ago to Asklemmy in Lemmy, what's your internet speed in mbps?

75/70 at 23 euros a month. It's cheap and enough for our family to simultaneously stream HD content.
Gigabit internet is available but I'm not really sure it's necessary. My son has 14 ping while gaming. That's satisfactory.

Schlemmy , 3 months ago to Asklemmy in What is your favorite alcoholic cocktail?

By far, Negroni.

1/3 dark vermouth
1/3 Campari
1/3 gin

Add to a low and wide glass with a fair amount of ice. Smoked rosemary and orange peel for extra infusion of flavour and stir.

You can experiment with the brands and types of vermouth and gin but Campari stays.

Nope. But it can be demanding when using online maps. Try to have your most used area downloaded in your phone.

Schlemmy , 3 months ago to Asklemmy in what do you wish you did when you were 18?

This hits hard. I was 29. My daughter was 3 and my god, I wish I was diagnosed earlier. After that it still took me several years to get a hold of my life.

Schlemmy , 3 months ago to Asklemmy in What was a book so good that you have ReRead it?

The best part of rereading those books is the hidden puns and jokes that you only get when you get older. And yes, commander Vîmes and Moist are excellent characters.

Schlemmy , 3 months ago to Asklemmy in What was a book so good that you have ReRead it?

I struggle with the abundance of characters from time to time. I've reread some of the books just because I forgot who, what, when...

The tv shows always are a compromise. They just don't have the time to build the characters and have to force some stuff because of that.

I have this guilty pleasure. I've reread 'Interview with the vampire' after seeing the movie and even liked the book pore afterwards.

Schlemmy , 3 months ago to Asklemmy in What was a book so good that you have ReRead it?

I have reread several books but most of them have several years or decades in between.

Especially Terry Pratchetts' books are better after and worthy of a second read.

You could just give them fake personal information. In the end, if they really want they could identify you because you probably pay with your card?

Schlemmy , 9 months ago to Today I Learned in TIL "several nations recognize the right of prisoners to attempt to escape prison or jail, including Belgium, Germany, Austria, and Mexico due to what is seen as basic human nature..."

Yes, but in Belgium as in most countries you still get charged for damaging property or hurting poeple if you do so while escaping.
A few years ago a mother was exempt from charges when she tried to assist her son in escaping because that is what every mother would do if they loved their child.

I'm wheezing. Never heard it before but the image is livid in my head.
