  Clicking each tile replaces it with another of the same tile.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mice⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the prequel

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That sounds like a fun thing to do⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Dane here. I have never heard about this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Personal Responsibility⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  True. But.

  Kids put a lot of stress on parents relationships.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can I lick it?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Would you rather lick Uranium?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Perspective⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Perhaps it is a weird wall-mounted lamp 👀

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨wtf⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  So we are the prey?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cuppa Jill⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Humanity

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fucking hell⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Dane here. No one actively thinks of 90 (halvfems, 2 and a half fives) as a mathematical expression. Is is just a word for 90. Would it have been nice if that word meant “9 tens”, yes, but Danish is a just a stupid language where you have to learn a bunch of things by heart which sucks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is this green or blue?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Bingo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is this green or blue?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is this black or white?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Came to the comments just to look for this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is an engineer⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
  3. if you hated engineering in uni, will you love the work afterwards?
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨why dont we do this??? are we stupid??⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like a risky click for some reason.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon's first job⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “Yes”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it really possible to tax the rich?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The newly elected government is actually quite cost efficient in this regard. Since they already are all crooked business men, they don’t need to pay anyone to get those tax laws passed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Realistically... How fucked is the US?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Then we are good.

  Hopefully.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon has a plan⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Does it really need to be a big container ship?

  Didn’t people transport stuff in smaller boats back in the day?

  (You still make a valid point though)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon uncovers something big⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The first point-contact transistor was invented in 1947. What a coincidence…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wild times in a wild world⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes… Something like that…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wild times in a wild world⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think you need to take the same approach as the British during WW2 with the Enigma. They could decrypt the messages and know when attacks would happen, but if they stopped every attack, the Nazis would know and change encryption device. So you need to accept that some people will die and only mitigate the disaster in small but impactful ways.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Black mold growing on the dispensers at my local McDonald's⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  1. Wtf, there is a Wikipedia just for mold?

  2. How can it feature 0 pictures

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First contact when?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am kinda hearing what you are saying, but it also sounds quite depressing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨meow_irl⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Is that wine vegan?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon defends Michael Jackson⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  His father was a complete piece of shit and treated him horribly and also he was never really allowed a proper childhood.

  So I have heard some people argue that perhaps he was not a pedophile, but rather just really mentally ill, partly believing to be a kid that just wanted child playmates. Still wrong for an adult to act like this, but perhaps there was no sexual misconduct.

  Not sure what to believe and perhaps I just don’t want him to be a villain, but I would like to hear if there is some concrete evidences.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨the ultimate rarity acale⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My restaurant just drags me out to pet the cow and I say thanks, pay them and go home.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fuck Chasing Youth. What's the URL DAMMIT⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It somehow disappears when I close my private browser.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tough Trolly Choices⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry, we sold out of that 5 min before you walked in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elsevier⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, I guess PDF has one thing going for it (which might not be relevant for scientific papers): The same file will render the same on any platform (assuming the reader implements all the PDF spec to the tee).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨LPT Do it.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I hear ya. But to be honest, what they are doing here is fine, and doesn’t seem malicious. There is an Open Document specification and they stick to it, but the spec doesn’t enforce everything. For instance for the ordering of certain elements on the page, I bet you they store store those elements in memory in an efficient data structure where ordering doesn’t matter, so when writing out the memory to disk, the easiest for them to do is just write it out in what order it appears in their data structure.

  But there are probably other cases where they are not so innocent.
