My Amiga 500 is from 1987.
But I think the stereo & LP player in the living room is from the early 70s.

Peewees is referred to kids in amateur sports between 12-13 years of age

that's probably the missing piece of information for most ^^'

So, when someone asks if you are free the next two weekends, you assume they're talking about the next Saturday (tail weekend) and the next Sunday (front weekend)?

Entirely depends on where you live.
In Germany, generally tap water is food safe, whether cold or hot.

But I also hear in Britain it's often a seperate tap, as the hot water used to come from a local storage cistern where it could be contaminated.

Sadly, Fortnite doesn't run on Linux. EAC has Linux support in general but Epic doesn't it for Fortnite...
Was one of the first things I tried on my Steamdeck after installing HeroicLauncher. Would have been nice with the gyro.

Germany, mid 30s, all the cars I've owned were manual so I would say - yes :D

First time I drove a rental automatic I did an accidental hard stop at about every second crossroads as I intended to hit the clutch with my left foot and lacking one just hammered the breaks instead >.>

When driving combustion I prefer manual but I've recently driven some EV, I could get used to that feel :)

Thunderbird - a bit slouchy at times but featurewise I'm very happy with it :)

~~No, since I can't sensibly use Reddit on my phone.~~
I misread - yes, I use Lemmy somewhat less now than I used to use Reddit. Which is probably a good thing^^

No one claimed it is, when used as an adjective :)

"Males" sounds just as awkward in such a context.

Some fights are just not worth the hassle tho, you got to pick your battles.
And it's not like there is anyone factually "right" or "wrong", it's mostly a matter of opinions/priorities.

Another example, different expectations w.r.t. to cleaning. Either try to convince the other person to clean more, even if they don't see the need, or be always the one cleaning and build up frustration. Or: Get a roomba.
