- Comment on Why don’t wireless connections (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.) use anything between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? 1 day ago:
Indeed the regulator, e.g. the Bundesnetzagentur, will knock on your door and inspect your radio and wifi devices. That way, some years ago they’ve found a malefunctioning radio alarm clock in my area.
- Comment on Why don’t wireless connections (WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.) use anything between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz? 2 days ago:
Some parts of the spectrum in between 2.4 and 5 GHz are used by the mobile communication standards LTE and 5G (also higher frequencies). GSM, DVB-T, and FM radio operate at lower frequencies.

- Comment on Do zinc tablets and toothpaste counteract each other in the mouth? 5 days ago:
Why are you taking zinc? I was under the impression that intaking zinc is a terrible idea and should be avoided at all cost.
Zinc is necessary for our body to make use of vitamine C. That’s why both are often combined in tablets.
The problem when welding brass or zinc coated metals ist the amount of zinc one is expoed to is uncontrollably high. Therefore one can get an zinc intoxication. Another point is that zinc oxide nano particles which are produced when welding are inhaled causing lung damage.

- Comment on What happens to all the used guns? 1 week ago:
I don’t think someone blew up a container, but as there are (illegal) hand grenades circulating in Sweden, maybe somebody deposited some in such a container. When it was emptied, all participants got into a hurry as they weren’t qualified for handling explosive devices.
Alternatively, they’ve thought beforehand and placed the sign knowing that some may also want to get rid of their grenades. But as they require extra care, it’s probably a bad idea to store them in a container in the foyer of the police station. - Comment on What happens to all the used guns? 1 week ago:
My gf once was at a police office in Sweden for filing a report. Near the entrance, there was a big solid metal container and the sign “no grenades” on it. It was to deposit guns without any questions asked.

Your picture shows a blade. A blade is a server…
- Comment on Is there really nothing the EU or NATO can do to stop Russian vessels cutting energy and communication cables at the Baltic sea? 4 weeks ago:
That wouldn’t be good for the fragile ecosystem in the Baltic sea.
- Comment on Im watching an episode of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, filmed in black and white. In this scene a guest is showing glass making. What is going on with the film to make these black areas by the flame? 5 weeks ago:
No offense taken.
- Comment on Im watching an episode of Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, filmed in black and white. In this scene a guest is showing glass making. What is going on with the film to make these black areas by the flame? 5 weeks ago:
I would suggest it’s the shadow the flame throws onto the coat of the glass maker, as they probably had a light source behind the camera while filming.

- Comment on Do you need to adjust your speedometer if you change the size of your tires? 1 month ago:
I know, but still the circumference differs. It’s 195/60R15 vs. 185/65R14
- Comment on Do you need to adjust your speedometer if you change the size of your tires? 1 month ago:
AfaIk, the speedometer is allowed to be overestimating your velocity by 10 %. On my car, it’s pretty accurate when using 15" the factory default summer tires, but it’s off by 10 % when using the factory default 14" winter tires.

Ah ok. Now I understand.
- Comment on Chinese Keyboards 2 months ago:
Is it used also for communication? I only know it’s being used for transcription of official documents like passports or addresses.
- Comment on Chinese Keyboards 2 months ago:
Isn’t Pinyin a romanisation method, i.e. writing chinese using the Latin alphabet instead of Chinese glyphs?
- Comment on For French origin words like "meter" American English inverted the last letters of "metre" to better match the pronunciation. Why isn't it also the case for other similar situations like "possible"? 2 months ago:
I think it wasn’t the point of OP that “meter” better matches the French pronunciation, but it does better match the (American and British) English pronouciation than “metre” does.

Oils are often considered as fats, triglycerides, that are liquid at room temperature. Thus, any triglycerides that aren’t, aren’t oils.

That’s really odd.

What do you see then?

That’s exactly what I wrote
mm^2should be rendered to square millimetres (mm^2) by the browser / app - Comment on Why is daisychaining multiple extension cords considered unsafe, even if only done to the length of a standard cable? 2 months ago:
16 AWG – 1.3 mm^2
14 AWG – 2 mm^2 12 AWG – 3.3 mm^2 10 AWG – 5 mm^2For us from the civilised part of the world ;-)
However, as in Europe we have 230 V system, approximately half the cross section, stated in the table above, is sufficient.

- Comment on Are there people without handedness? 2 months ago:
Yes, that exists as well.
- Comment on Are there people without handedness? 2 months ago:
Looking at the origin:
ambi, Greek: both;
anti, Greek: against, opposed;
dexter, Latin: right, skilful, clever; sinister, Latin: left, wrong, evil;So sinister is already anti-dexter, the ambi just emphasises that this not-skilfulness applies to both hands.
