Why would you pay to promote?
Today my YouTube studio proudly told me I should promote a vid to get 3000-9000 more impressions.
My brother in Christ that video gets 4000 impressions an hour.
If they offered 100,000 views for $100 it might be worth it, but they dont.

Was your University teaching experience similar?
After getting the job I waited around while summer holiday finished. Got a call to come in, given a textbook and a schedule. "Your first class is tonight at 6". And told I'm the universities only foreigner.
It's not my first rodeo so I knocked up a lesson on introductions pretty fast.
And just like that I'm in front of 40 20 year olds studying business. And people are calling me "Professor".
Very little oversight, no one actually checking how the classes are going, no one from faculty in the class. No guidelines, targets or objectives. No standards.
The level of spoken English from the students is really quite poor, and 99% of them don't want to do any spoken activity.

People who ask "What's your lowest price?" when I sell stuff.
The lowest price is the price. That's why its the price.
It's even worse than haggling, because I'm being asked to haggle myself.
Also haggling over postage fees. Have some self-respect.

How do I select and delete a single waypoint from the G1000?
As you can see its going to KFLG before the KFLG approach so it expects a 180, I want to go from FPL000 to the aporoach.

Rolling cache on USB SSD?
Due to how my laptop originally came from the store it's got a very badly set up file system.
The 1TB internal SSD is partitioned into a 200GB drive where windows lies, and an 800GB "Storage" drive.
Even though I told msfs2024 to install on the storage drive, it put the community folder on the smaller drive. So this is problem number 1 I need to solve somehow. I currently can't download world updates as they would quickly fill up the 20GB of free space there.
I was able to move the 50GB rolling cache to the 800GB storage drive, but that's getting full too.
Is a USB C external SSD going to be fast enough for the rolling cache? There are USB NVME docks that claim 40Gbps.

Why is most male underwear designed to crush your dick and balls？
Do most men like feeling this way? Anything but loose boxers has me needing to constantly rearrange my junk.
Today I had a pair of boxer briefs so crushing it pushed my dick into my body.

Did we all used to just be chronically dehydrated?
I remember back in school during the 90s, apart from lunch you only got a few seconds at the water fountain.
Carrying water around with you just wasn't a thing.
10 years ago I moved to a very hot country. Everyone carries water or tea around with them. Not drinking constantly will have you passing out in no time. Schoolkids also have water bottles at school.
Are Brits just dehydrated all the time?
