It’s known that sneezing is a reflex to prevent dust or nose hairs or whatever from getting down into the lungs, but why do people and animals sometimes get hiccups? What function does that serve, and what causes them?...
As a former iPhone repair technician, I can confirm this is both true and false at the same time. There’s a speaker in the normal position for the ear as well, it all depends whether the user decided to put the phone into loudspeaker mode.
This comment coming from an Android user that’s just as guilty of this at times.
I’d like to theme an old Windows XP or 2003 system to resemble a more modern Macintosh system. I already have a base theme for WindowBlinds, but would like to try finding additional resources such as icons, sound effects, etc…...
Even with a washer, the head of a straight bolt won’t hold very well in concrete when you go trying to tighten it, it’ll most likely start spinning and possibly even damage the concrete.
Yeah, I think I’ll pass and just try to avoid ticks in the first place. One day I was following a trail through some tall grass, and by the time I got home, I found I had 3 ticks latched into my skin in various places.
After I got them all off, I was sick as a dog and running a gnarly fever for the next week. 🤒

Do hiccups serve any actual useful biological function?

If zombies are supposed to go after brains, then why do they almost always end up tearing into the abdomen and other parts instead?
Seriously, are the zombies too stupid to find the brain? Are they too weak to crack open the skull?...
