He had a costume that mimicked nudity and was singing a song about being nude (something about, if we were all nudes, there will be no wars). So i guess the description mostly nude applies here.

Is it possible that the native card reader is slower than the usb-c one ? Maybe a bus bandwidth issue ?

Basically all i kno about haiti is: only country to successfully throw off colonizers

Not exactly. Other countries have done that (the US for example). What sets Haiti apart is that they are the first and only successful slave revolt. Slaves gained their freedom through revolt, which terrified every nations that used slaves (basically every Western powers and their colonies at the time).

Well, she looks like a milk cow, so I have bad news for you.

They both have the same goal of reperability and the same shortcoming (being way more pricy than competitors with the same performances). Buy one gets roasted and not the other.

I'm French, we have different synonyms for that :

  • "machine à laver", which is female
  • "lave-linge", which is male
  • "laveuse" (Québec only), which is female

Why do they have different gender for the same thing ? Because, insert your favorite expletive word, that's why !

Louis is the "same name" as Clovis. I mean by that it is how the name evolved as the dynasties changed their language from Frankish to Latin to then French.

Clovis was the first king unifying all Franks, so many Frank kings are named Clovis ... and later ones are named Louis.

Come on, it is super fun. Just install VirtualBox and set up a virtual machine, make sure there is no funky mount point that touches your host machine, and go nuke that VM !
