@trinsec I'm in shape too, my shape is about the same shape as Columbus thought the shape of the earth was. To quote columbus:
"I found it (the world) was not round . . . but pear shaped, round where it has a nipple, for there it is taller, or as if one had a round ball and, on one side, it should be like a woman's breast, and this nipple part is the highest and closest to Heaven."
STEM = singing, theater, entertainment, and music
facetious answer
White clothes are better camouflage in a snowy environment. Getting killed by a polar bear would cause your body temperature to drop to ambient; thus white clothes are an advantage for staying warm.
If anyone wants the solution to this STEM puzzle/question DM me for the answer or just wait until the poll is over.
I feel like I dont have nearly enough polar bear cuddles in my life.
To (almost) quote Terry Pratchett:
All animals can be cuddled, some animals can only be cuddled once.

Disgusting video of my ear canal (repost)
And a few pictures from when there were still clogged.
Disgusting video of my ear canal (repost)
Other ear cleared except for some wax on the eardrum
Disgusting video of my ear canal (repost for CW)
A little disgusting but i thought it was neat to see. I had a wax blockage in both my ears that completely blocked the ear canal. So i bought a special otoscope and scoop to remove it. I attached two photos showing the complete blockage and two videos showing the removal afterwards. Youll notice there is still some wax blocking on ear, but its too close to the eardrum for me to risk getting it. Ill try again tomorrow.
Either way i just think its cool to see what the inside of the ear and the eardrum looks like. My one eardrum in my one ear looks a little deformed or something too.
Ps cant attach more than one video or picture at. Rune. See replies for the others.

It's a reference to Saint Peter... Another reminder that people prayed to saints for various fortunes/circumstances.

Wine utilities on windows
So I tried running some of running some of wine utilities on real windows installation (win server 2019, that’s what i had on hand).
Turns out some of them work. I only copied into C:\windows only those I tested beforehand (by running from C:\windows2 directory created by me). I had luck with:
taskmgr
clock
notepad
cmd
winemine (minesweeper)
regedit
explorer
Didn’t work:
explorer as a shell (more below)
control
iexplore
Iexplore was giving errors about some dll (even though it was present). Control gave me only spinning circle for a while and then nothing.
Explorer launched but was very glitchy. Address bar was behind column headers. Crashed once. Most UI buttons were not responding with anything (like sorting by item type or properties). Other than that it was able to copy file normally.
Task manager was giving me different readout for memory consumption. Other than that rest worked perfectly. I only tested .exe files because i don’t know what each .dll does.
Now I think about grafting windows’ dlls into some wine prefix (maybe more games will work). There is also React OS project that could work better for windows install, although older one). Maybe copying original dll’s into React could make it more stable (this is something devs can’t do due to copyright).

My warning signs for who not to get close to (and certainly don't date!):
1) If they always want to hang out with you, talk, or see you when they are single but you barely hear from them when they are dating someone.
2) Someone who doesnt want their significant other being close friends or hanging out alone with someone of the opposite sex.
3) Someone who is always in a relationship and when they are single is constantly looking for the next one. If they spent more of their lives with a SO than without, no go!
4) Anyone who thinks you are the best thing since sliced bread right after you meet them.
5) Anyone who tries to slip in stories or anecdotes that make them intentionally look like a desirable person and leave out the bad stories. The easiest way not to come across as attractive is to try to "sell" yourself.
6) Dishonesty of character, which relates closely to #5
I've put this on #reddit and it goes viral with 25k likes. #mastodon thank me later, my inbox has 500 questions about #fediverse and co.
Some help would be nice.
