This is genuinely the first I’m learning those aren’t a thing anymore in some places. I could swear I’ve seen them all over Europe.

Thanks for explaining, I’ll do that next time!

Man I was just bored. It takes less than half a second to scroll past a post you don’t like.

My 4 are: vinyl record, paper map, own a dictionary, write a post card.

That sounds rough! Glad it’s better now. I’m perfectly fine with sour stuff too, except on a completely empty stomach. Not quite cooked garlic has made me throw up before though.

Ah ok, thanks for the tip!

Except that imagining fields (not forces, if I’m thinking of the same illustrations as you) as lines is very very far from how deep it goes. Throughout physics education, most ppl go through several iterations of thinking you finally understand magnetism, then realizing you really fucking don’t, as it’s more complicated than you were taught previously.

Huh, how does ‘itll happen regardless [of t levels] IF you have the genetics’ mean ‘itll happen regardless OF genetics’? Am I being thick?

if you have the genetics for it

I wouldn’t even describe my hair as curly, but just as unwieldy. Since I’ve just embraced it, I get so many compliments on it. I do make the effort to get sulfate free shampoo, and brush it before washing, but that’s literally it. Trying to get them to clump into proper curls worked, but really really wasn’t worth the effort for me.

You’re the first person other than me I’ve heard has this problem. I have it with garlic, too. Either is fine when fully cooked, though. I don’t even have a sensitive stomach otherwise, I can eat chilis all day every day. Hbu?

Afaik as long as your primary sex hormone isn’t estrogen, you’re going to go bald regardless if you have the genetics for it.

Am physicist, unfathomable invisible being reaching out to attract random shit together is my best understanding of magnets anyway.

- Comment on Luxury bones? In *this* economy. 1 week ago:
I’m very lucky that my grandma passed a house on to me in her will, skipping her children. Not lucky enough to be able to renovate it to make it livable though, and install a legal heating system, so I continue to live in a 12m^2 and with four flatmates.
- Comment on Parents turn to smartwatches for their children amid global phone screen-time pushback 1 week ago:
You seem like a great parent! I’m personally leaning towards giving them dumb phones once they have to take public transport to school, for the convenience of them being able to inform me when they miss the bus or want to have lunch at a friend’s. But who knows if or when I’ll even have kids, lol. Maybe things will change in that time.
- Comment on Microsoft tells Windows 10 users to just trade in their PC for a newer one, because how hard can it be? 1 week ago:
When I was kind of strapped on cash, the 2016 iphone SE was the most best choice by far. The android phones I’d had before that usually cost a similar amount and they all broke in less than three years. But that 290€ bad boy lasted until I lost it in 2023. Shame they’re no longer making those. But I guess the silver lining is that people don’t make fun of me for having an iPhone anymore.

My highschool PCs had XP for as long as at all possible. They switched them to some beginner friendly Linux after. Way to go.

I’ve been wondering what creamer was, since it seems to be a US thing. I thought it was just sweetened cream or something. That sounds sooo weird. I’ll stick with soy milk for my coffee.
- Comment on Late 1900s 2 weeks ago:
Since this was true when I was in primary school, it’ll always be seared into my brain. I mean, I realized this when I was learning to count and spell, of course it’s saved as one of the most basic facts of life. Like, 4+4=8, 90s are 10 years ago 70s are 30 years ago etc was stuff learned at the same time, so it’s like it’s saved in a similar way.

I used my own weight and type of beer for reference, but fair enough that that’s not representative!
Still, do they limit it to 2 beers then?

Idk man but I feel pretty Chad like when I throw up in a train toilet

Are drunk driving laws just not that strict in the US? Iirc you lose about 0.01%BAC per hour. One beer will give you like 0.05%*, which is also the upper limit of blood alcohol where I live. If you have a second beer, that means it’d take like 5 hours until you’re able to drive again. Are baseball games this long?
*to be fair, this’d be lower the heavier you are

Hello fellow ADHD vegan.
It sounds like you have a doctor. Do what they say. I assumed it was enough to take one every week bc it had 1000% the daily recommended dose but I still became deficient. My doctor worked with me to remedy that.
- Comment on Is cops being evil/lazy/incompetent a USA specific thing, or is it the same everywhere in the world? 4 weeks ago:
All cops perpetuate the states monopoly on violence. Their primary purpose is also usually to uphold the interests of capital. I mean, just look at pro Palestine demonstrations in Europe. Depending on who you ask, that’s pretty bad.
That doesn’t mean that everyone becomes a cop for nefarious reasons though.
- Comment on Is this green or blue? 4 weeks ago:
Teal is greenish blue, turquoise is bluish green. But tbh why not consider both of them colours of their own. Green isn’t a primary colour either, if we consider that its own colour, why stop there?
- Comment on Not real... *for now* 4 weeks ago:
You’re not immune to advertising and propaganda. Nobody is. Ads almost never work by directly making you think ‘i should buy this’. You’re even less immune to advertising and propaganda if you tell yourself you are, because that’ll make you less interested in working against it.
