4 hours missing, what were you doing that time? 8 hrs of sleep should be enough, than you have 16 hrs to watch the screen, those are rookie numbers.

They don’t grow here, so they are not cheap. In the 90s “Southern fruits” were orange and banana, everything else from outside Europe was too expensive for the common folks. Before the 90s you couldn’t even buy any of that.

Just looked it up on some online local shops, the price is 2-3 USD a piece. Not a kg, one fruit.

How do you handle the fluids sprinkling during the first bite? Lets share our tomato consuming experiences and best practices.

I eat tomatoes like apples. Add a bit of salt, and bite carefully. Smaller tomatoes fit inside my mouth one piece, so I eat them like grapes. I usually eat it naked, so the sauce won’t go on my shirt, so I don’t have to wash it, I just take a bath after finished eating a tomatoes.

I meant unprocessed. I only ate in salads, sauces and drinks. I think you couldn’t even buy an avocado here for a long time, or you had to go to some special shops. Nowadays it’s common in supermarkets, but I don’t eat fruits frequently.

Eastern european here, never ate raw avocado. What is the joke here? You should peel it before? I know you can break your teeth if you accidentally bite the big nut inside, but it’s the same for plum and peach.

Fun fact: Osama bin Laden, the founder of Al-Qaeda, had this video in his computer’s audio/visual collection.

yes, he is out of touch, and when he meet reality it can turn into funny or strange, like this recent interview segment: https://www.reddit.com/r/hungary/comments/1dzbw53

His voters won’t know about this. Government propaganda is in a different world. He just met with Zelinsky, Putin and the Chinese dictator, and couldn’t achieve anything, obviously. In government media he is praised for trying to bring peace everywhere but the evil EU and US don’t let him succeed, and we have to vote him otherwise Hungary will get pulled into the war.

Oh, there is Euro football match today, so everyone will hear about this. During the half time break there are not just ads, but also a little news segment where you can hear about his latest achievement. So those who are not interested in politics but football can hear about the adventures of our glorious leader.

Gratis and libre used usually to differenciate the terms: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gratis_versus_libre

Both of them are latin words so I expect they show up in similar forms in most European languages. Free is a Germanic origin word.

In Hungarian we use the word Gratis as well with Hungarian spelling: “Grátisz” even though Hungarian is not an Indo-European language. Libre is not used in common speech here.

I don’t get what @Freeman@lemmings.world wanted to say
