You ever drink Baileys from a shoe?
Would depend on how deep underwater and the pressure and so forth, but maybe look at how steam engine piston rods are sealed - an o-ring or a wiper seal would probably do the job
Whenever my family went on holiday to Dartmoor when I was little, parents would always take us to church at Buckfast Abbey if we were there on a Sunday.
Always thought it was just for the nice architecture and the gardens, but maybe they had another motive…
Something janky about the wheels, smells like AI…
Road distances are in miles, speed in mph, heights in feet & inches, anything else is a hot mess generally trending towards metric the younger you are (or if you’re in STEM)
ETA: there was a dumb plan a couple years ago to “reintroduce” imperial measurements after Brexit, mainly aimed at food shops, ignoring the fact that the EU never prevented anyone using them, and then the govt quietly dropped it in December lawl
Antitrust (2001)
First computer in about '99, which I’d “built” (I was 8, so I mostly just watched while my dad’s friend built it and occasionally let me plug some wires in)
First phone, Nokia 3310 in 2003, with a Simpsons case, I think I’ve got it in a box somewhere…
Was about to say the same thing - just annoying it’s not all available online in the UK

Is that 25/80% of men will have thinner hair, or 25/80% of a man’s hair will thin?
A person and a human? So if a legal person like a company pisses it still takes the same time, neat
The word “asteroid” literally means “star-like”, because when they were first observed, no telescope could see enough detail to know what they were, so they were basically just called “those things that look a bit like stars”.
Even when eventually we figured out what they were, they were generally considered to all be spherical like tiny planets (see: The Little Prince) until the 1970s when one of the Mars probes flew close enough to have a look at one.
This is crazy - we also rented an MG Excite in NZ (but on the north island) with exactly the same issues, maybe it was the same car 😆 was yours blue?
Getting a bit “Nautilus from League of Extraordinary Gentlemen” vibes
Its great to hold! Very chunky in the hand. Functionality wise I only gave it the on/off, volume and input selection from the media devices, and then it talks to another esp32 base unit that controls some lighting over WiFi, but as far as actually driving the media controls I shamefully just use the Google Chromecast controls, I’m not savvy enough to set up a FOSS alternative yet
Probably something to do with cholesterol
