poisonoustoxic in large doses. - Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
In this specific case, pharmacy or doctor. In the case of surgery, ask about social assistance at your hospital.

Never heard of a whisper, but never heard of a lot ofthese either (some sound made up by five-year-olds).

- Comment on What's this thing stuck on my dirty underwear? Is it a piece of undissolved tide pod? 4 weeks ago:
Left a tissue in your pocket? Maybe the detergent got caught in a fold and didn’t get a chance to get rinsed out?
- Comment on Is there any handbooks for warning lights on cars/machinery 4 weeks ago:
Dunno man, sorry. I haven’t worked in construction sites for more than 30 years, I wouldn’t know where to look either.
- Comment on i took an iq test and it was nice and i took my time doing it but the answer was 86, is that bad?? 4 weeks ago:
The results of IQ tests vary from country to country, from city to city, and depend a lot on socio-economic, educational, and cultural background. They can be a good bit of fun but aren’t consistently reliable. I wouldn’t worry too much about it.
- Comment on Is there any handbooks for warning lights on cars/machinery 4 weeks ago:
On the outside? There’s almost certainly a standard for your country and industry. For example, nsw.gov.au/…/RMS-45070588-Flashing-lights-and-sir…

- Comment on What really separates a PC from a server? Mainly the hardware, but I guess software too. 5 weeks ago:
Technically, only intent.
I can run a samba or plex server, for example, from my raspberry Pi, my desktop pc, or my laptop. These can all be considered servers as well as desktop PCs.
I could, in theory, buy a secondhand rackmount server from eBay and run it at home as a “desktop” pc with windows or Linux.
More practically, hardware architecture that provides redundancy and continuous uptime. A commercial enterprise server could have multiple hot-swap hard disks in a raid array, redundant and hot-swappable power supplies, and something in the back of my mind tells me that even RAM and CPU can be hot-swappable in some models (am I thinking of IBM power or did I imagine it?).
The advent of cloud and virtual machines could work towards making hardware redundancy and continuous uptime obsolete, but there are cases where servers on premises continue to be used and preferred.
I hope that others will correct me and add further information.
- Comment on People complain that it's poor design that humans eat and breath through the same pipe(throat). Are there any animals which don't though? 5 weeks ago:
Don’t dolphins and whales breathe through their blowholes?
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 1 month ago:
Waiting for a repeat of Jan 6 from the other side, or a civil war, or the sovcits to take over, or all of the above, or some other unknown catastrophe.
Whatever disasters may or may not have come about due to “bad” presidents in the past will pale in comparison to the events of the next few years.
- Comment on Why doesn't phones numbers have a "DNS" servet so we can just type in words like we do with the internet? 1 month ago:

When I was young and regularly drank to excess, they used to last until mid afternoon.
- Comment on Colesworth exit gates 1 month ago:
The sign says “gates will open automatically”, so I assume they will, and go through them at speed. Sometimes they don’t open and they get slammed with a trolley. Too bad, so sad. Sometimes they don’t open and I have to push them open with my hand or more usually kick them. On the rare occasion that a staff member notices or even gives a shit, I tell them to log a fault because the gates are broken.
