I have no data to back this up, but I seem to find that regions at Northern latitudes tend to have higher rates of alcoholism. I think it has something to do with long winter nights and people being able to find a sense of community in a pub/bar/Ratskeller after the sun goes down at 16:00 for half the year.
The US is much further south than most of Europe AND there are large regions that are very anti-alcohol due to religious reasons.
Pranks can 100% be harmless and fun, but if you’re ever questioning whether or not a prank is harmless don’t do it.
Basically everything Just for Laughs does is gold. You can spend hours watching their videos.
I go for a variation of this if a coworker leaves their computer unlocked when they leave for lunch or the day.
Screenshot their whole desktop, hide all icons and the toolbar. Set the background to the screenshot. Boom a computer that looks exactly the same as before but doesn’t work.
Quick, non permanent, takes a few minutes to work out, lesson learned to not leave your machine unlocked.
They took it down. The Mod team said people were spamming it with CP. Fucking assholes.
Conservation of momentum is based on Newton’s first law which states “a body at rest tends to stay at rest” so that would imply A. not B.
Those dudes were just chilling, and would still be laying there chilling.
I can get reposts every couple of hours on here.
It’s exactly what a sitcom is supposed to be. Light watching that’s generally funny. Also if you miss an episode or two here and there it’s easy enough to pick up what’s going on.
Do you have any recommendations on how to buy a domain?
And have felt super cool and like a total loser doing both.
There’s a microwave repair store in my city.
There’s always one person there when I dive by but never any customers. There’s a neon open/closed sign that changes daily so someone is there.
No clue what exactly is going on there.
Right? I can solve one in a minute to minute and a half. By normal people standards, impressive, by cyber standards I’m laughably slow.
I’m cool with that
It seems like people just want to be told what to do.
Yes exactly. Not many people like to figure out how something works, they just want it to work.
Apple’s success isn’t because it’s the best at any individual feature. It’s successful because All the features just work without having to figure anything out.
I never would’ve expected it until it happened, just barely above a whisper, loud enough for me to hear and not anyone else…
The federal government has acknowledged they’re limiting their hiring pool and has started slowly rolling back some of their requirements.
Softly spoken German in an intimate setting can really do it for me.
Loudly spoken German can also do it for me for entirely different reasons.
Not so much an incident, but an unsolved mystery in my life that I don’t think I’ll ever know the answer to:
A few years ago some friends of mine and I were going to a concert and left our cars in a parking lot in an office park near the arena and piled into one car.
When I came back a few hours later that night, there was a dead duck on the hood of my car. It was still warm, there was no damage to my car, no feathers floating around anywhere, no blood on the duck (it hadn’t been shot or attacked as far as I could tell), it was just there by itself on the hood of my car. It wasn’t duck hunting season, and this is in a city with over a million people so not a rural area.
I’ve asked all my friends, family if they know what happened, but nope. No one has confessed anything, and at this point I think anyone of my friends would’ve fessed up.
I’m just baffled.
It was like a duck landed on the hood of my car and dropped dead a few minutes before I got there on a random weeknight.
I have no clue how, why or what happened.
Basically Succession because the characters are always trying to set up their own personal fall guys.
I think the issue was there was artificially very little supply allowed, so not a free market.
