My favorite part of not driving is the drinking. I’m lucky to live around a good train network and even luckier that the shop at the station has a fridge full of beer.

It’s the rare Golden Woodman, 1 in 10000 odds that you see him on the third night when you look at the security cam for animatronic storage.

How old is this picture? Or am I looking at the one retro game collection that doesn’t have a whole shrine built around it?

Why is bread bad for duck, but cooked rice good? Isn’t that basically the same thing? Bread is wheat, water, bit of salt. Cooked rice is rice, water, bit of salt. Or can’t ducks handle gluten?

- Comment on xkcd 2682 for linguists 4 weeks ago:
Now the next unsolved question is: when a person is multilingual, should that count as multiple languages or are they all facets of the same idiolect? Is code-switching between formal and informal English the same as code-switching between English and French? Can a person even have multiple idiolects?

Should the target area be square or should it also be a hexagon?
- Comment on cookie combs 4 weeks ago:
The bee doesn’t have to know anything about numbers to make the honeycomb. All it needs to know is how big to make the circle (bee-sized) and where the circle should be (touching two other circles). From there, the hexagons form naturally.

I think the engineering would be so complex and so particular to a window type/size, that it’s just not worth it. At some point, installing an external unit and wiring/ducting through the wall is actually the simpler solution.

Inorganic? You think the CIA is MKUltraing everyone into liking Academy Award-winning films? I think the only culture shift that could potentially happen is that the films are old enough now that the fans feel the need to remind everyone how good they are. In the first decade after release, we kinda assumed that everyone was already aware.

It’s been working out a lot better since the invention of flash freezing. For both sushi and pickled fish, the risk of parasites was always present. Now it’s just as safe as cooked fish and it doesn’t taste any different from raw.
- Comment on A cuppa Jill 1 month ago:
Not really early Germanic though, because every other Germanic language kept the meaning of “animal”. It’s only modern English (since the 1500s) that narrowed it all the way to one specific species (or family of Cervidae).
My guess would be that the language gained the word “animal” from French and “deer” was pushed from its niche and forced to specialize?

The reverse image search spotted it well, but it isn’t the same image. It’s very likely the source where the image generator got its ideas from though: lemmy.world/post/31578519/17746077

I don’t understand why you’d ever need to know this. What is a phylum anyway? Which animals share a phylum? Are bonobos and chimpanzees in a phylum, a family, a class? And what does that tell us about their relation that we couldn’t already tell from their characteristics?

Be careful, you can’t breathe in bubble mountain. This kid was smart and made a little window in a tall and narrow bubble stack, but in a large pool it’s easier to lose track of the edge of the bubbles.

The steel cubes have liquid inside too? I figured that solid steel would have enough mass and thermal… dynamics? to act as an ice cube, but maybe water is still better. Actually, do they sink or float?

Omou again, fucker.
My sides.
And I know it’s a copypasta and the bad translation is the point, but “akachan” is way too friendly for “You’re fucking dead, kiddo”. I’d go for “gaki”, which is a common part of weeb lingo and literally means “kiddo”, with the same connotations and all.

What would realistically happen when the logs fall off the truck? They still have their forward speed, so braking should be enough to avoid them, right?

What is your point? You don’t want to swear, but you don’t not want to swear either? Maybe sort out your beliefs then.
- Comment on minor tomfoolery 🛻💨🎶 2 months ago:
If you don’t want to swear, don’t swear. Mildly censoring a swear word to “f*ck” doesn’t accomplish anything. Everyone who reads it knows exactly what it says. And if you go far enough to make it unrecognizable, like “!@#*”, now you’re just pretending to swear, but for what purpose? Couldn’t you accomplish your goals by rephrasing to avoid a swear word entirely? (Assuming your goal is to avoid swear words, of course. If the goal is to sound like a cartoon character, consider taking up a funny catch phrase.)
