- Comment on How do you get people to wash their vegetables when you're at their house and you don't wanna seem rude? 1 week ago:
“I’ve had sand on my vegetables before. Can I wash them?”
I’ve found sand in salad multiple times. Not washing greens are weird.

That’s just how memes work, no? Something random gets repeated and evolved. It’s funny because its a random occurrence that didn’t really affect anything. But we can play with it as if it did. Like moving a mug in a time travel movie changes the universe.
It’s an absurd and sad situation that gathered enough attention to become a meme. I for my part enjoy some Harambe memes now and then.
- Comment on Why has no one thought of this before?! 5 weeks ago:
Guy got baited into lecturing on a shitpost. Absolutely genius.
- Comment on Am I supposed to ask stupid questions here, or *not* ask stupid questions? 1 month ago:
You are supposed to ask questions that might be viewed as stupid, and you should receive an answer without judgement.
If you do that though you will get fucked and asked to install Linux.

Gotta love how they teased the fact that yes; The game developer is developing games. Such news.
As they would just stop making games for some reason.
- Comment on Amsterdam testing system that can remotely slow e-bikes down 3 months ago:
Being a pedestrian in Amsterdam can be pretty bad. Dutch on bikes are insane. No slowing down is allowed. The bike might be rigged like the bus in Speed or whatever. Ready to explode.
People on heavy e-bikes are riding 25km/h over pedestrian crossings with poor visibility.
It is dangerous, and should be treated as such.
Cars in Amsterdam is a much smaller consern than bikes. Really.
Been there. Beautiful city. Terrible biking culture. The Dutch know. They reference it occasionally.

Cool. The more you know.
Funny how there are such different practices.
- Comment on Tethered plastic caps 3 months ago:
Fairly easy to rip off. But they sometimes leave some sharp pieces of plastic poking your lips. Also it’s annoying.
Would probably be better if the tether was longer.
- Comment on Tethered plastic caps 3 months ago:
So. In Norway we have this great system for returning used bottles for cash. We get 0.2$ for a 0.5 liter bottle. People are returning the bottle with the cap on. Seeing bottle caps laying around isn’t a thing.
Instead of attaching the cap to the bottle. Make a return system for the bottles. People are not systematically seperating the bottle and the cap as the cap keeps the sugary residue left inside the bottle in place instead of in the bag you carry them with to the store for returning them for that sweet cash.
Attaching the cap is a solution looking for a problem.
Having travelled a lot around in Europe I have never seen bottle caps laying the street alone. People throw them together or not at all.
This is bureaucracy time spent on caps instead of actual problems. So they could focus on actual issues instead of this shit. It’s a testament to how they blame every issue on random people instead of the industries inventing new ways to fuck up any ecosystem.

I’m so fucking tired.
It’s estimated the fishing industry is losing around 400 metric tonnes of fishing gear into Norwegian waters every year.
Now we are punished for this by attaching the stupid caps to the bottles. Why are we not able to fix problems in this society hellbent for self destruction?
Why are every problem pushed down on the working class just wanting to enjoy a soda in this capitalistic hellscape.

This was way more interesting than i anticipated. I’ve used lathes my self but thought they just was some post industrial Revolution invention.
Great share.
- Comment on why is Channel 16 the international maritime distress and calling channel? 9 months ago:
I believe this is for ease of use. When using HF or MF you have to set the frequency yourself. That is a level above The required SRC - short range certificate needed for a VHF.
