Plenty. I have had people tell me I am inhumane for criticising tipping culture, and if I point out it is related to the extreme class system and slavery history of America they downvote me to hell and try to justify that it is “land of tha free” or whatever.
They don’t even have freedom from hunger or illness in their messed up country.
Yes, if it had been in Australia. Report it when you see it.
Have you not played Dwarf Fortress? Frame rate goes way down, a situation imperceptible to the dorfs. Then eventually the operator of the machine looses interest, or a oandemic makes the pop count drop, or a combo of those.
Edit; You should read some Greg Egan if you’re into this question.
I have seen classical guitars that do, not unlike a cello, but cannot steer you at a specific brand.
Doesn’t even need to be coastal for that to happen. Bloody ridiculous prices all over.
Well, I doubt they plan to ever buy HP again.
Over(head) for (the duration of) dinner (well, part of it anyhow).
If you are doing that by car, then the cloverleaf will add to your spin, not cancel it out.
New reason for us to have a keep-left policy on our roads while yanks have a keep-right policy on theirs…
Similar to Memrise, which was really fun when you could make your own mems using imagesearch and customise everything… And now is a rubbish duolingo clone.
Cruise causes microplastics in whales and is the creation of people consulting a buddhist monk? Hmmm.
Bloody stupid bot.
Rental cars are incredibly expensive in some states. If I wanted to rent one in Tasmania for ten days, it would have been cheaper to buy a car and abandon it than rent one. Less of a problem at home in NSW.
No idea. It seems obvious that this is designed for the vision-impaired…
You left out “throttle diaster information accounts when the disaster is happening” (Japan earthquake).
When the Japanese Earthquake information twitter account was throttled a few days ago, after the earthquake, there seemed to be this general realisation that they were not going to be able to use it for disaster communication any more…
“Nothing to see here” Darn.
“Everyone everywhere should federate.”
“Not like that!”
Come visit Australia sometime. I am certain no children will knock on your windows begging for food and water when you stop at traffic lights (which happened both in cities and the occasional local township) even if you have a rental car (we were borrowing cars from locals, rentals are often too pricey for me). No one will try to steal your bag of groceries either.
Cat!
Had to do a flame test to identify old fuel for recycling.
Made blue dye from indigo, and red and orange dye from madder, mixing in alum and other things. Making blue is amazing, it comes out green then changes colour all at once. Get the mix wrong and you get the wrong colour… Also we boiled one batch of madder and got orange instead of scarlet, so even the temperature had to be regulated.
Most recently, been making etched plates from the inside of soft drink cans, etching with copper sulfate (they sell it in Bunnings as a fertiliser). Lots of fun!
So yeah mostly art projects.
That said even baking a cake is pretty fancy chemistry.
