There’s a small-ish risk of intestinal blockage AFAIK

From the fly, no. From the possible parasites in the fly’s gut, maybe.

They cranked the cringe to 11… No, 12… To the point it’s painful.

I mean, if you covered his face, he’d look like a 3-4y/o who likely needs their parents to dress them.
On a side note, a lot of older men either lose track of where their waist is or pull their pants up to try to hide their overhanging belly. It’s mostly people from a generation that always wore pants with the waistline at or above the navel

- Comment on WARNING! 3 weeks ago:
Using baking soda a bit of water and some time will also get rid of the corrosion along with neutralizing the acid which tends to come back otherwise.
Just disconnect and remove the battery. Wipe the battery with a paper towel covered in a paste made from baking soda. After, rinse it off with some clean water. Clean and rinse the car’s battery tray and Clamp like you did with the battery. Get a large-ish bowl or dish with some water and. Soak the harness terminals for a few minutes while adding baking soda until it stops fizzing. Get an old toothbrush and scrub the terminal with a baking soda paste. Rinse, re-install everything and you’re done.
It got my harness terminals from a crystallized mess from leaking to looking brand new (seriously) and none an issue for the past 4 years.

The real stuff (the kind that doesn’t leave residue) can get expensive as hell though.

I think ‘uncanny’ would fit better, as certain surfaces would fluoresce despite having no apparent source of light, artifacts, or glaring that you could see.

You are… The computer just became so desensitized to the exit command from people talking about Arch Linux that it started ignoring us.
We’re stuck…
- Comment on What's this thing stuck on my dirty underwear? Is it a piece of undissolved tide pod? 1 month ago:
It looks like it. I use gain ones and if I do a cold wash cycle less than 40 (or so) minutes, the casing doesn’t always get fully dissolved.

I’m guessing stuff similar to meth as they are both amphetamines.

It’s also used as a treatment for methanol or antifreeze poisoning.

We don’t need more people in the world right now. We should be concentrating on figuring out how to agree on having and applying the best support for the ones we already have first.

- Comment on Yo, Duplo, what you doing on the 24th? 4 months ago:
There are also few sites that let you rent the different sets. My brother’s used NetBricks and it sounded like it could be another option if the buying/selling thing makes it too much.
From what he told me is you pick a set/s online, the kit comes in the mail, build and enjoy it for a bit, then you would tear it down completely when you are bored of it, stuff all of it in a special zip lock bag and send it back for your next set. He told me they go over all the returned pieces to look for damaged/missing parts, “sanitize” (probably just wash them) them, and repackage them for the next renter.

Every song ever is about romance, sex or drugs.

- Comment on As a novice at soldering, I now have an opinion about single-sided vs. double-sided breadboards 4 months ago:
They’re pretty much the same as a solderless breadboard, in that they have dedicated power/signal rails and multiple rows/groups of bridged pads. They are usually used for a working prototype, as opposed the solderless ones used for initial circuit design/debug on a benchtop.
Here’s a general design with dedicated in/output pads. Image

- Comment on Toast 5 months ago:
I’m guessing the toast thing came around from the possibility of damage to or disturbing the olfactory nerves if there’s increased pressure on them like from the brain swelling (possibly from a concussion) or from bleeding inside the braincase.
It makes sense on paper, but I doubt there would be many times a patient would be conscious at that point.
- Comment on Same thing with "turn that shit down I can't see" 5 months ago:
That’s likely just lacrimal fluid (tears) shifting around in your eye socket. It also may mean too much pressure is being applied and can cause damage to your eye.
