You are almost correct. I am 20.

For the foreseeable future, yes. However, I would like to start at a university in a year’s time. I still need to figure out what I want to study.
In Denmark, all studies have a certain amount of available spots. This varies from university to university and between different studies. There are obviously way more spots for studying medicine than Russian.
You can apply for university in two groups (da: kvoter); group 1 and group 2. When applying for group 2, you also apply for group 1. When applying for group 1, the only thing that matters is your average grade from your secondary education (usually Gymnasium). The university starts with the person with the highest average grade, and then go down the list until all spots are filled.
When applying for group 2 there are various additional factors, that can get you a spot, if your average grade is not good enough to be picked in group 1. Different studies can have completely different requirements for group 1. Let’s say you want to study music. Then an additional factor could be that you’ve started your own band, wrote your own song or something. I don’t know if that’s actually a benefitting factor anywhere though.
.
Since my I have a high average (10.5), I can get a spot in nearly any education I want in Denmark, as long as I have the correct subject qualifications (I can’t do medicine, because I only have chemistry C, while they require chemistry B). However, my subject qualifications still mean that I can get into a lot of different studies. This makes it hard for me to choose what I want to do, since my interests are also diverse. Some fields I like: Urban Planning, Linguistics, Geography, Diplomacy, History, Programming (I want to learn python).
So right now, I am just threading water, enjoying life and making money until I know what I want to do. But I like learning and I liked being in school, so I will definetly educate myself further.
Well, it is actually a job because I get paid to do it. But I also find it fun and meaningful to do, so that’s why I do it. Swimming is quite a big sport in my city and in Danmark generally.
I live with my parents. I my country it’s very normal at my age. I currently teach swimming to schoolchildren, which I find quite a lot of joy in. Also thank you for saying that I am honourable. That makes me happy.
Sometimes I get a bit carried away and it gets late. There is always more to map, so the work is never done. That’s why I need to make projects and finish them one by one to feel like I’m making progress. It’s very rewarding to resolve notes that other people have left, because that means that I helped someone, and that makes me happy :)
If you don’t know what openstreetmap is, it is a collaborative project to create a map of the world. I’m a contributor in my spare time, and I like adding new places, roads and the like. Think of it as wikipedia, but for a map of the world.
I’m editing openstreetmap
I am staying up later than usually. How about you?
Don’t steal Kaleigh Gilchrist’s face!
Explicit sponsorship inside a video is considered to be one of a few good solution to the issue of content creators being naturally subjected to death by starvation.
It’s better on the issue of tracking, but if one is just an opponent of ads in general, there is no difference.
I would rather pay someone than watch ads (which I do if I watch their content regularly). I subscribe to Nebula, where a lot of the creators I watch post their videos. I also support some through Patreon. I wish there was a way to pay for just a single video, since some creators only occasionally produce videos I want to watch.
Ads promote overconsumption, and I don’t think anyone should be forced to see them, unless they want to. Also, the sponsors are always the same 10 shitty companies (Betterhelp, Raid Shadow Legends, NordVPN…). I don’t care for these companies, so why should I be forced to watch ads for them?
Why do you unplug everything?
Probably when I saw Snarky Puppy in my hometown of Aalborg, Denmark. In the jazz-fusion world they are very well-known, but I never expected them to do a stop in my town of a 100.000 people. I brought a friend who had never heard their music before at all, and we got 2nd row seats. He was blown away, and afterwards we got selfies with Michale League, the bassist of the band.
I’m going to Italy in a month, and I had found a very good deal on a sleeper train. Just as I was about to book, I see that the last inexpensive cabin was taken and the price had jumped up by 200€.
I just booked my Lufthansa flight :(
“Illegal” in the sens that pieces are connected in ways not intended by the designers. An eqample here is the blac brick in th, middle of the engine with studs on either side. The black 1x2 plates with cheese slopes are not completely connected to it, so I would classify it as an illegal technique, since it would not be used in a lego set. Too fragile.
Here is a little infographic with examples I found:
Thank you! I spent ages on getting the front done. I used sideways cheese slopes for the headlights like so:
This along with the wheel mounts is an illegal technique (not quite fitted completely).
Made this little car last night. I challenged myself by building it five studs wide, which was a much greater pain than anticipated.
Who fucking told the international press!? This is so embarassing.
I’d pay for youtube if I wouldn’t also be exposed to tracking, however I much prefer supporting creators directly. IMO the platform should be paid-only and have a revenue-share system akin to Nebula. Fuck ads.
