I would not recommend doing 45 on a German highway, or any other European highway for that matter, unless you’re in a traffic jam. 😋

If only onions and the like didn’t give me such gutwrenching cramps, love the taste, but partaking in anything containing onions, leek or too much garlic just isn’t worth the aftermath. ☹️

“Life finds a way” is a threat, people just forgot that part. Life itself is unstoppable.
Don’t worry, our Sun will take care of life when it starts running out of fuel, expanding and boiling away everything on the surface of our planet.

This begs for a response by Robert Ricardo, offering an analgesic cream for those burns. 😂

The plug on that thing is absolutely terrifying, super flimsy and so small you have to almost touch the prongs to plug it in.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the secret of building appliances that outlast their owners.

I find this image extremely offensive. Flathead screws are a curse on humanity and need to die out.

- Comment on Hard to answer the question when you don't even understand the question 5 weeks ago:
Well, it did help that they used a simple serial connection back then and didn’t require any advanced electronics. Just a bunch of resistors and basic stuff like that. All relatively large components that are easy to solder with what I had back then. I’m not sure how easy it would be these days with USB.
- Comment on Hard to answer the question when you don't even understand the question 5 weeks ago:
Reminds me of highschool math. At some point you needed a graphical calculator, you could load programs into them but that required hooking them up to a computer with a crazy expensive data cable. So I found a schematic, ordered the components for a fraction of that price and learned to solder. It looked ugly AF, but it worked. Next step I wrote a program containing the formula’s I needed, uploaded it and installed a program which hid your program menu until you pressed a certain key combination. It could even simulate a hard reset, as you could get spot-checked and asked to do just that.
I could also have memorised the formula’s, but that wouldn’t have been fun. And unlike all those formula’s I still use my soldering and programming skills. 😋

It was in a poor / underdeveloped country.
Damn, I would have thought even the US would have bolsters with a basic retention mechanism by now.

I suspect this is some kind of console error? I’ve only owned an SNES before becoming part of the PC master race, so just like the kids of today this early millennial has no idea what he’s looking at exactly.

Most problems are caused on the longer term and that damage can be quite insidious. N~2~O deactivates vitamine B12, which ultimately causes nerve damage, especially for heavy users. Symptoms can be stuff like tingling extremities, muscle weakness and paralysis and can become irreversible with continued usage. The problem is that the early symptoms can be easily disregarded, while the damage is slowly building up.
- Comment on We'll probably never see a Grand Theft Auto set in a futuristic city like GTA 2 because the team "hated it": "People didn’t connect with the game or its city" 2 months ago:
The gang wars mechanic put me off SA, same as the friends in GTA IV that keep demanding you go bowling with them while you are in a car chase with the police. It felt forced and screwed with the flow of the game by forcing you to stop whatever you were enjoying at that moment or deal with the consequences.
Vice City is also my favourite, great selection of music tracks, great 80’s vibes and it wouldn’t forcefully try to pull you out of your flow at random intervals.

I don’t quite agree, RoboCop 2 lacked some of the depth of the original in my opinion and come on: can you really beat Ronny Cox and Kurtwood Smith as the villainous duo? 😉
Having said that, RoboCop 2 is definitely still worth watching!

It’s a scene from 1990’s RoboCop 2.

“De man is dood”. We don’t capitalise nouns, only proper nouns like names and places (same as in English). Germans do, but that language is even weirder than ours. 😋

- Comment on Spain is blocking unrelated internet addresses because of soccer 6 months ago:
If they are using their ISP’s DNS server they probably don’t even need to use DoH or DoT, just switching to a independent DNS server is often enough. But yeah, otherwise using an encrypted DNS connection should also fix this.

Yeah, and I can’t believe Liberace was gay. I mean, women loved him! I didn’t see that one coming.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Ah, sounds like the issue is not DoH in that case, that would be impossible for Reddit to detect if you are using a browser. I suspect a domain gets blocked in one of your proxies, or Reddit returns alternative records to recursors they know are being used for privacy reasons.
