Start with a basic HB pencil. Costs under 1 dollar/euro.

If you want to add colour, get some basic coloured pencils or soft pastels. Pastels will need, in general, better paper.

Want to ink them? Go for some cheap black fine lighter pens at different widths.

This progression alone can take years and is enough to get decent at drawing, learn the fundamentals, etc. Good materials and tools are useless if you don’t know how to use them properly, so don’t spend too much on them too early.

To start drawing you need a pencil and some paper. It costs almost nothing to start and it can be very rewarding.

That would surprise absolutely no one.

He just barely outlived Henry Kissinger.

First, they will remove rape and incest, then they will remove all LGBT games, then they will remove all nsfw, and then they will remove all violent games and so on until only the games deemed acceptable by the US evangelicals are left.

I guess I’ll go to the F95zone instead.

Pulling oneself by one’s bootstraps used to signify the absurdity of getting out of a difficult situation all on your own.

Tbh milkmaids were the prettiest women because they would get mild cases of cowpox instead of skin wrecking smallpox and it was the origin of the smallpox vaccine (vacca means cow in latin).

The general formula is

land × labor = yields

In the west, it was mostly large land and small labor (amount of people, not work per person) in the east, it was mostly large amount of labor and small amount of land. The formula is still in effect, we just enriched the land with synthetic fertilizers and replaced manual labour with mechanized labor in the form of tractors and harvesters and chemical labor in the form of pesticides.

One theory I heard is that during Covid, the outside world became scary and strangers unattainable. So the only accessible women are the ones that live with you. In many scenarios, people are step-siblings just to explain away why does a shut-in guy have a hot girl in his home.

And then they release an “unofficial patch”.

I remember that time Facebook had a random text in a page saying “This text should never be visible in production” or something like that.

When Covid happened most of them collectively shook their heads and said “Nah, that’s fake.”

LT vz. 38 - ČKD/Praga TNH

21 tanks were ordered by Lithuania, but were scheduled to be finished in 1940. The Soviet occupation changed all that, however.

I found a webpage that uses it and found out that it requires no authentication. So I just copied the url and sent a request every 5 seconds just like the webpage did. It gave a csv of busses, their routes and gps locations.

Same. Too bad that I’m not into obscene amount of drinking that everyone around me wants to do every day.

If you hate plank and don’t have a kettlebell yet, start with some dead bugs.

I used to work at a place outside the city that only had one bus after work and it was kinda spotty and unreliable. However, there was an online API provided by the bus company that told me where the bus is.

So I wrote a Python script and a Linux alert that would give me a notification when the bus was within range, with enough time to get to the stop on time.
