  That’s why he’s making that face

  I’ve had aquariums on and off through the decades. My last one was a 150 L tank, very well planted, and three small schools, zebras, lneons and guppies. All of them keep to small areas in the wild, and see to be fine in that sort of surroundings. Also, schools are mesmerizing. A Japanese aquarist, Takashi Amano was famous for designing huge aquariums, with massive forests, and just a few fish.

  Oh , you two, get a room already!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There was a time when people had to deal with all of these being separate⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m always surprised I these conversations that almost no one mentions always having a useful, generally charged, decent close range flashlight.

  I’m old enough to ha e experienced that having a zippo was the most reliable way to see close range stuff. Flashlights were basically dead battery containers.

  No way!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hello 911, it's me again⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope. It will become art when it’s first used for its intended purpose

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lefty tax⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes you can. You just need a mirror, like Leonardo da Vinci did

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gold⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Gold is a actually extremely useful, and has a ton of practical applications where it’s not used because of cost.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  . Just call it 90 minutes. If you use minutes it sounds like less time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some of you are too young to know what this is⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s a myth. DVDs tend to lose synchronicity if you don’t rewind them and always turn them the same direction. Why do you think there is subtitle timing adjustment in most media players?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Some of you are too young to know what this is⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Might have been a joke to you.

  I have my collection all rewound and ready to go.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s the difference between communism and socialism?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s even muddier than that. Most socialist parties in Europe have no intention to move towards communism, they are more akin to social democrats.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Europemaxxing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah. Southern Europe, and especially Spain are really triggered about the omission of siesta there!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wonder why?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I hear they are pumping more money into roadkill extract for curing autism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Best Friend 🫂⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Interestingly, horses sweat, dogs don’t.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Best Friend 🫂⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve ridden horses for much of my life, and always shared my life with dogs.

  A good horse you have a bond with is freaking awesome, but dogs are just on another level.

  We don’t deserve dogs.

  In my area leishmaniasis is endemic. There is no way I’m not going to use a collar or fur drops.

  Leishmaniasis is a horrible disease for dogs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The person who mounted a spice rack into the fucking studs so a fridge won't fit there⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because screwdrivers are regulated, screwdriver licenses are hard to obtain, and while most people can do the clockwise thing, counterclockwise is a skill that takes years to master.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨please do not the fish⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Viscious? I think you meant viscous

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wake up sheeple⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My father was a fighter pilot. He explained that at a sufficiently sharp angle, hitting water was like hitting concrete.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨type shit⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s interesting that the pro circumcision crowd who rant about hygiene don’t support girls having their labia cut off to prevent grime from accumulating between the folds. Circumcision should be reserved for actual medical reasons, like phimosis, and if possible at age of consent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨type shit⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s highly relevant, since parents are the ultimate arbiters of their childrens’ health and well-being.

  Precisely. Parents should protect their children from genital mutilation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨America⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Roundabouts should decrease premiums, as they essentially eliminate Tbone collisions

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨America⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have for years named files that have a chronological component ymd , and if hours are relevant, hm. A few ymdhm.

  Makes a lot of sense when ordering directories.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If I was in the market for a good used car, which car would be the best to outrun the cops?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Old school Subaru Forester XT. Will outrun most police vehicles And can go nuts off road.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Funny how android used to be what we now call FOSS⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Konqueror? KDE’s browser?

  I think you meant to say Mosaic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UwU🥺👉👈⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Very happy to meet herself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WHERE THE FUCK IS THE CURSOR?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Or a 200% yellow cursor, like I do

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's sad that people completely misunderstand what Star Trek is about.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What a muddy comment. Took me two reads to try to figure out the argument therein, after which I stopped.
