How much their ad-free tier costs? Can I pay without them tracking me? No? Then fuck you (website owners), I will be freeloading and will advertise freeloading.

Vampires are found independently in Africa, Asia, North and South America, India, Western and Eastern Europe, and especially in the Balkans. All these incarnations have common attributes of folkloric vampires, though their appearance and origins vary due to the cultural environment and the intent or purpose of the myth (i.e., social control). Thus, the vampire is not culturally specific, nor is it a particular phenomenon, but rather it is almost a universal explanation for the liminal state when coupled with its relatives. Each culture has created these mythical fiends as a way to explain folk hypothesis, thus individually perpetuating their existence.

You know what’s even more dissapointing? bc - arbitrary precision calculator for linux shell uses ‘l’ for natural log, just a single letter.
And there’s no other log function, so when you need logx(y) you write: ''l(y)/l(x)".

I like mongolian tea in the morning: very strong tea + half cup milk with butter and salt.

At the moment of separation of RSDRP mensheviks were in fact a minority of the party. And intersting enough, it’s not the given name, that’s what they named their faction after bolsheviks came up with their name.

It won’t work if we are already their demons.

They’re supposed to buy an AMD card, obviously. /s

We need a better tldr bot and also a tsdfln (too short doesn’t feel like a novel) bot.

Wikipedia cites this one: Ferguson, George (1976) [1954], “St. Nicholas of Myra or Bari”, Signs and Symbols in Christian Art, Oxford, England: Oxford University Press, pp. 135–136

You can “borrow” this version for free: https://archive.org/details/signssymbolsinch0000unse/ The story is at page 81. But there’re no more details, just the same short paragraph.

I guess it is a depiction of a miracle of resurrection. It could be saint Nicholas or similar to this story:

One story tells how during a terrible famine, a malicious butcher lured three little children into his house, where he killed them, placing their remains in a barrel to cure, planning to sell them off as ham. Nicholas, visiting the region to care for the hungry, saw through the butcher’s lies and resurrected the pickled children by making the sign of the cross.
