Yes, in Ireland the Subway “bread” cannot be classified as bread because of the amount of sugar in it.

The subway sandwich “bread” enters the cake category.

I think that for this one we can all agree on “not speaking the language”

BastingChemina,

I was doing some blacksmithing in high school, mostly knifes.

When reaching 800°C steel is not magnetic anymore, it’s also a good temperature to start forging the steel. So I needed a atrong magnet to know when the steel was hot enough, I used what I have available: a hard drive magnet.

It felt quite “mad-maxy” to disassemble a broken hard drive to use it as a tool to forge knifes

It’s only suspicious if you take one or two snacks.

You need to completely empty the machine in a cart, bonus points if you empty several vending machines in a row.

I have an issue with how SIM cards are handled in most countries

Almost all countries require official authentication to activate a SIM card. This seems to me as a huge privacy problem, if the country can track sim cards across cell towers and connect them to a person. It seems like a dystopian system, that we litterely can not hide from our governments without turning off our smartphones. It...

BastingChemina,

I think there is above 50 cities named “Villeneuve” in France (literraly meaning "New City)

BastingChemina,

Me too, I would probably watch it with a group a friends.

BastingChemina,

I feel like the US has a very strong resistance to change regarding standards.

The 110v for example used to be the norme in France, but they changed it to 220v in the 50’ and then 230v in the 90’.

Same thing for the plugs, the paper size, the measurement system …

BastingChemina,

I don’t think the “No man can kill me” is some kind of magical immunity, more a brag.

BastingChemina,

It’s like the IT version of “did you check that the computer is properly plugged in ?”

Everyone roll their eyes having to check the plug but a lot of the time the issue can be something basic like that.

BastingChemina,

I’ve lost some of my sanity reading this !

BastingChemina,

Another issue that Darwin had is that for the theory of evolution to work you need very long periods of time.

The problem is that it has been proved by the physicist William Thomson using cold hard maths that the earth cannot be older that few hundreds millions years, which is not compatible with Darwin’s theory.

History told us that Darwin was right and Thomson wrong but it did not appeared this way at the time.

Internet can make people smarter, if they actually want to get smarter.

Have you ever seen a humain baby right after birth ?

Our brain is wired so we still find them kinda cute but without hormones and context we would probably find them ugly.

BastingChemina,

Yes, this particular ratio allows the fact that you can fold a A3 paper in two and get two A4 sheet

BastingChemina,

A friend in high school gave me an Ubuntu live CD and told me I should try it.

BastingChemina,

NixOS too. I really like having a “fresh” install every time I restart.

BastingChemina,

I tried via a VM but CAD applications need a GPU and doing a GPU pass through with a nvidia card on my laptop was too much for me.

BastingChemina,

This is what I did, I prepared a partition for windows on the second ssd and it went OK.

The only issue was that I needed to manually add drivers on the windows usb for it to be able to recognized my ssd. It was a bit of a pain to find this information online

BastingChemina,

Yeah this was my issue too.

BastingChemina,

I will try it.

It’s more expensive than Fusion360 but if its working well I might be interested.

BastingChemina,

Just like wigs or esthetic surgery. We generally have the impression that wigs looks terrible, just because we only notice the bad one. The good one goes unnoticed.

Factorio for me, the interesting part is that I usually want tonlay the game after a day of mindless tasks at work.

On the other hand if I’ve been busy at work and had to solve a lot of issues I’m prefer other games.

It’s my brain gym
