English speakers always seem to like mierenneuken: nitpicking, or literally, ant-fucking.
Or maybe fokker, meaning breeder (and a famous last name; and speaking of names, we have first names such as Fokko and Fokje).
That sounds too demanding
Chairs and tables. Why do I have to squeeze my thighs between the chair and the dinner table and then bend down awkwardly when I eat to not splatter all over? Why are chairs so high and tables so low? Just put the table higher so the food is closer to my mouth and why do we even need chairs anyway?
Milk cartons suck now. In the 90s, we could fold and push to open. Why do we need scissors to open them now? Oh and half of them now have a plastic lid in the middle so you can’t even pour out the last drops anymore.
I agree. It’s a loan word from Dutch and after 200 years, it’s about time you give it back.
Speaking of dandruff, it took me way too long to find out I don’t really have dandruff, just a dry scalp. That’s why the “dandruff”, like all my other health issues, just disappear in warmer climates.
I disagree. The alternative to news is no news. If you don’t have anything interesting to share, just don’t post it.
If you want to share news articles, just use a link to the internet archive, if available, or copy-paste the text if it’s behind a paywall.
Information should be open to all on a platform like Lemmy imo. If you’re willing to pay for news, you won’t need this platform for that.
Please ban paywalls.
I don’t know but imagine what crazy processes would lead to creating that magic man floating around in nothingness, without a world to evolve on.
Alles goed :) ja, ik kom uit Nederland
It’s funny I understand all that when written but couldn’t understand a word when Scandinavians speak
Where are you from, is this a joke or something? We have white eggs in Europe and Asia
I keep recommending Tribler and I don’t know why it’s not more popular. Anything wrong with it?
Cigarettes when I got some long pain and it actually started to hurt when I breathed in the smoke. Stopped alcohol completely at the same time.
I kept it up for almost a month.
Trying to fit something in the box?
Opera singing and high pitched violin
In elementary school you needed to ask and take some wooden tag from the class room. Couldn’t go if the tag was gone, so only one person at the time. In middle school you don’t ask, you just say you’re going.
Netherlands btw
I just tried it again but for me it doesn’t switch automatically. It’s quite annoying since I often write local addresses etc between English sentences
It seems with Heliboard you have to switch between languages rather than having it detected automatically. It also doesn’t support swiping so not really a replacement for Swiftkey yet, for me at least.
I tried Amaze, it’s OK but it annoys me how huge the list items are. I have to scroll through a folder that only takes half the screen in TC.
I did round up a few times. It seems strange to base the tip off a percentage.
