Y’all can read that white text?

obinice, in There's some kind of use for this lighter I can't put my finger on...
@obinice@lemmy.world avatar

I genuinely don’t know what market this is for.

Cigarettes don’t benefit from this, and we already have long ones for lighting the stove or wood burner.

What’s this stubby one for?

Snazz,

I actually use one of these for work. It fits comfortably in my pocket and don’t burn my fingers when I have to light up a bunch of sterno burners.

wizzor,

In case you are serious, it’s for lighting pipes.

ji17br,

Do people have issues lighting pipes with normal lighters?

Agrivar,

No.

wizzor,

I have no idea, never tried, but I can imagine it’s easier when your fingers don’t need to be so close…

    Hitler modeled his way of genociding Jews based on the native America genocide. And Hitler used the Jim Crow laws as example to model his race laws in Nazi germany. So there is no wrong order here, just a bunch of butt-hurt ignorant people. Israel is using the American example of genocide as well.

    I suggest that you watch this video for more info

    To be fair, this is looking more like late XVIII century man with advanced syphilis, but after looking some of late XV century portraits the point still somewhat stands anyway.

    Why the fuck would you use Roman numerals?

    hackris, (edited )

    Some Slavic languages, such as Russian, use Roman numerals for numbering centuries

    Edit: why was this downvoted? If I’m wrong please tell me, I’d like to learn :)

    ShieldOxygene, (edited )

    In some roman language like french too !

    samuelinox,

    some latin languages as well!

    It’s called history.

    AFC1886VCC,

    Jimmyeatsausage,

    Arabic numerals are the devil’s numbers!

    He took the Confederate flag off his truck when his house keeper explained why it was offensive to her. He was extremely based for his generation.

    Chillie Nelson, ma bro!

    Btw yesterday I learned who designed the ubiquitous bic lighter: Louis Lucien Lepoix, a guy who pretty much shaped the aesthetic zeitgeist of the early cold war. The more you know…

    I dunno who that Steve guy is, but what’s with that photo of Jamie Hyneman?!

    soycapitan451,

    It’s from an episode of Pingu. I only know this because it terrified me as a child and still haunts my nightmares as I approach my 40s.

    arymandias, in eww

    Imagine a few days later everyone he got into contact with getting horribly sick and dying.

    BCsven, (edited )

    While that happened, and vice versa, this info often tries to whitewash USAs war on indigenous people, and systematic genocide to irradicate the “savage natives” history.com/…/native-americans-genocide-united-st…

    arymandias,

    Both can be (and are) true, while the Europeans and later Americans did many things that would now be classified as genocide and ethnic cleansing, the majority of the native population simply died inadvertently of diseases. It’s actually unlikely that the Europeans would have been able to so thoroughly conquer the Americas if the native population would have survived the first wave of diseases.

    BCsven, (edited )

    This makes me think you did not read the full article and the timeline. Of course the indigenous people survived the first wave of diseases. The majority did not die out, This is why the colonizers were later fruatrated with the situation of trying to expand into more land. There are so many historic books about the systematic elimination of “Indians”. The diaease trope is what is taught in american school so we can feel detached from their ultimate demise. But if you don’t have time to search and read, just look at this wiki link on how many were genocided rather than the paltry few you think were left over from disease. …wikipedia.org/…/Genocide_of_Indigenous_peoples

    “Embargo” sure is a funny way to say “launching pirate raids and missiles”.

    Same as what the US does with Cuba, and they also call it embargo 🤔

    Dude I got fucking livid yesterday because Alt keyboard shortcuts no longer work in Paint.

    You have to interact with the ribbon before the alt key works.

    And then there’s no key shortcut for “Save As” or “Exit”.

    The fuck Microsoft. They weren’t hurting anyone and you’re wrecking 30 years of muscle memory. You know how frustrating that is?

    Sylvartas,

    Haha I ran into this a few months ago. I too was losing my fucking mind over this

    jasondj, (edited )

    Honestly if I hadn’t switched to Linux 10 years ago I would’ve said that this would be the thing to set me off and switch. (This was my work computer, and even though Ubuntu is available, Linux users are second-class citizens in my shop…all sorts of weird issues and not nearly enough support because it’s a very limited offering)

    It’s incredibly frustrating. It’s more than muscle memory at this point, it’s practically instinct. It’s so anti-user and there’s no reason to do it except to bring paint into the fold of all the other ribbon office apps, as if people haven’t been complaining about everything wrong about ribbon for what, 8 years now?

    I’m sure a few of them were the loved ones of highly motivated people who got dragged along.

    Paul Harvey > Steve Harvey

    UnrepententProcrastinator,

    Easy to beat, Steve Harvey is a very vocal anti-atheist. Immediate POS in my book.

    nnjethro,

    Good day!

    For the past 8 years I have had to disable ‘mouse acceleration’ after every Windows update. The updates have become more frequent, and the setting to disable acceleration has slowly become buried deeper in the menus. Switched to Linux two days ago and I’m never looking back.

    i actually prefer acceleration btw
