I always keep my cars spotless. Slightly scented, never more than a little dusty, some dirt on the carpets but nothing more.
Now my home, on the other hand. That’s a fucking pigsty.

I’ve never seen these used for condiments, but I used to see these being used all the time on soap dispensers in workshops.

🤓 ACKSHUALLY
It’s not possible for a heat pump - or anything - to even be 100% efficient, let alone 400%. Efficiency is measure of how much of the input energy gets converted to useful output energy, and since heat pumps don’t actually create heat the useful output is the compressor’s ability to pump refrigerant about. The Coefficient of Performance - the ratio between energy put in and useful work done - is 400% for a heat pump (give or take).

A phone would be a bit much, but an ereader with a solar charger loaded up with Wikipedia and a chunk of Project Gutenberg would probably last with a bit of care.

That’s a joke-turned-plot element from one of the Hitchhiker’s Guide books. The protagonist, a human everyman stranded with a primitive culture on a distant world realises he has no idea how electricity, steam engines, medicine, etc works but he becomes a respected member of their community by making sandwiches.

So to be clear: there is no correlation between weed use and hotdog use, other than that they’re both in decline. This means that they created this graph showing two unrelated datasets for no reason other than that they could. Or, maybe, because they wanted to use the cursed image of a spliff in a hotdog bun.

IF the phone can output enough power with it’s OTG port AND has the correct drivers for that cheap-ass looking USB framebuffer graphics thing AND that’s an active HDMI to VGA adapter rather than some shitty vendor-specific implementation based on some unholy bastardisation AND the phone supports external displays… then I still don’t think it’d work, tbh (but it won’t (it might though (it won’t))).
- Comment on Which timezone would win in a conflict? 5 weeks ago:
Every military in the world uses UTC so I’m gonna say that.
Otherwise, I’d go for UTC-1 because… well, look at it. There’s no way they could lose because there’s nothing there to lose. Nuke away, boyos, it’s all ocean.

Not quite fully vertical, but I got a Microsoft Sculpt Mouse ten years ago and it was an overnight improvement. I fear the day it finally gives up the ghost.

The squat toilet is for pooping what the urinal is for wee. If you have really baggy trousers you don’t even need to undo your belt.

Smart Character 1: “This waterfall provides fresh water for drinking and farming, a plentiful source of energy, ideal fishing grounds, and camouflages us from the predators senses such that we can talk and act freely.” Smart Character 2: “We must not live here.” Smart Character 1: “Of course not.”
