  • to large parts of the world that's just normal english, and implies absolutely nothing about ones fluency since we learn english in school and y'all have culturally colonized us to the degree that our fucking advertisements are in english these days.

  • wireless chimneys

  • my first thought was that it's a euphemism, like the architects have to be smacked in the head pre-emptively so they stop making dumb designs

  • while "sabbath mode" does indeed seem to be real, i cannot imagine this is something that sees any serious amount of usage, and i'd imagine most rabbis would tell you it's kind of silly because the point of sabbath is to not do work, and these appliances specifically exist so we don't have to do work.

    If you start considering "putting food in the microwave and turning a dial to start it" as violating sabbath, you quite obviously then also can't go around turning door handles or using keys, or taking on/off clothes, or filling a glass of water, etc etc etc

  • this is why i stick to cheapo devices unless there's a specific feature in expensive ones that i want: they generally achieve the low cost by making a minimum viable product, which thus lacks all the complex nonsense and is often pretty repairable as a bonus.

    Power dial, time dial. All a microwave or an air fryer needs.

  • what do you mean you don't want an LLM built into the kernel that controls the scheduler?

  • oh, boy.. two cakes?..

  • the key is to realize that most people almost literally do not see cars and car infrastructure, it just doesn't register in their brains.

    Using cutting edge technology, i have created what i believe to be a highly accurate simulation of carbrained vision:

  • a vote for me is a vote for stripping out the interior of every customs and immigration facility and turning them into free temporary housing for immigrants who clearly love our country so much that they uproot themselves and travel here.

  • what it actually does is channel all your suffering onto the liver, like the world's worst voodoo

  • mom found the piss bin

  • a while back i bought a small portable vacuum cleaner, and it's so fucking nice that it finally has USB-C.No more dedicated cables, i can just fucking keep an extra charging cable at the other end of my room and plug stuff in there, and in a pinch i can also use my phone charging cable.

    It really is like we've finally emerged from a seemingly endless fog, and all of a sudden we can actually see more than 10 meters in front of us. How the fuck did we just accept the fog??

  • i really do not understand why people keep saying it's worse, it's very very obviously so much better than it has ever been.It's not difficult to understand, it's like how you have to put larger pipes in the wall if you want more water from the faucet. Obviously we can't just shove huge pipes everywhere!

  • which.. is all you need 90% of the time, lol.

  • i have 3 hot-water radiators (connected to district heating of course) in my 1-room apartment, we just actually insulate our houses in the nordics.

    It's just barely enough to keep the temperature at 21°C which is to be fair a bit too low for me to be comfortable without a tshirt and long johns, but then that's also because i just sit at the computer and thus don't make much body heat.

  • i'm convinced cats and dogs have ended up with some strange genes that occasionally just turn off their ability to comprehend extremely specific things, like they can be able to figure out how to open doors but then also be utterly dumbfounded by water being wet.

  • well maybe that's why they didn't come to Hawking's party, they'd have to strip him and it's not like he has use for a motorcycle.

  • yeah?

    we have insulation and heating lol

  • oh trust me, my head looked like i had dipped it in a bucket of grease for like a month when i stopped using shampoo.Your body is used to the oil constantly being scoured away, so compensates by spewing it out. Once you stop removing the oil the scalp should eventually recalibrate and you enter the blissful state of your hair just always being nice.
