  I wonder if those places do a better job of being less drafty because it’s easier to know there’s a draft when it’s really cold.

  It would help keep hot air inside if so which might explain why it’s so hot

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK Tips for a Winter Storm⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah also thanks because I thought they meant like raw inside of the egg. Like the yolk and white so over the bottom of your foot and the pedals making it very slippery.

  In this case the raw egg is still inside the shell. They makes a lot more sense that what my brain conjured up.

  Though all that being said it does things me of the anime Initial D

  The main character makes deliveries for his dad and his dad puts a cup of water in the cup holder and says not to spill any. That’s how he teaches his son to drive without breaking the tofu he is delivering.

  That being if he doesn’t spill any water he is driving smoothly and with care.

  Which is actually a reoccurring challenge on the Canada’s Worst Driver show. Season one is actually a great watch for winter driving skills

  When my mechanic had decided to sell his shop, he got rid of his heating bill for the last few months he had to work and he used a vest from snap on (branded snap on anyway) that had rechargeable warmers in it. Was kind of neat. He said it worked surprisingly well as long as he remembered to keep it charged

  Unessesarily and for no reason mean the same thing in that sentence, you can only either one and it makes more sense. Mea is not in this instance. But perhaps you know this already and it was intentional. If so apologies

  I was curious if there was anything inside it for at least a decade. I have no idea why I’ve never looked it up. I even subscribe to Wikipedia.

  Thank you

  Mea culpa. I mistook installer for launcher

  Shit sorry, I hastily replied and confused installer for launcher. Mea culpa

  … If it requires an installer, then it it not your forever. That’s one hostile take over away from losing your ability to play a game

  So join ICE and starting shooting american ICE officers. You have immunity to kill US citizens apparently if you do so might as well use it for good

  Try to find a “European Deli”

  They always have salted licorice of various kinds, at least in my area.

  They are not for the faint of heart if you didn’t grow up with them

  Hope you find them!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What common American habits do people find quietly annoying?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the best response, because it amuses me greatly, is to reply simply with “as if”

  I wait to see if they figure out that I’m just pointing out 2 worlds they missed saying at the beginning of that phrase to make it resemble what they intend.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Are You Guys Handling This?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Humble bundles and GOG also things to keep an eye on.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I probably should have phrased that differently such as “because we all watched Mythbusters?”

  In my defence, it was late/early and I want thinking good

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Watch Mythbusters

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK about Psyllium husk⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry for the pedantry but time of day is a something of a misnomer.

  Many people live in weird and varied schedules.

  For those who might need to be told, what time it is is irrelevant. It’s typically the amount of time before or after something else happens that is the relevant information here so consider how that affects you if you don’t live a typical morning to evening lifestyle.

  And also learn what things you should and shouldn’t eat or consume any time you take medication. It can easily be something as simple as substituting something instead of completely changing your routines. Unfortunately that is a trial by error thing so not a good method to fondue l figure out problems you may have with meds

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This long-term data storage will last 14 billion years⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Permanent storage. Like the Wayback massive and internet archive I hope will fully take advantage of these. As well as project Gutenberg. So much else. I’ve been waiting for something like this for a long time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are famous chefs fighting PFAS bans?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No I just think it’s a terribly flawed idea and no longer a completely idiotic idea that holds zero appeal. Now there is a non zero amount of interest in the idea.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Do it like Guga! Call it your Honey dry aged butter knife and do three of them that spent different times in the honey dip. Keri the one you liked the best and use the others as free giveaways.

  Also don’t forget to show us all the results

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve always called them honey dippers, or just a dipper.

  Not that I own one but have used one, the people who do own then know exactly what I meant.

  Funnily enough I have no idea what the people who had then that ib used call them

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are famous chefs fighting PFAS bans?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Jesus fucking Christ. I thought The Purge was an idiotic idea. I’m no longer of the same mindset.

  I was going in a different direction myself. More in the vane of offering the leopard a second meal

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You should probably start lieing about that and taint the brand as much as possible. Probably won’t do much but we should all just start saying everywhere that is a great thing because crucial sucked anyways.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  No but I do hold onto old electronics because I grew up with my grandparents and they had WW2 wartime rationing mentality about saving everything. Also my grandfather also an incredibly cheap bastards at times too

  Not sure that leopards will be having a glorious meal is the appropriate symbolism but feel free to give me a better one
