kindenough

While reading the wiki page because I never heard of it as I am not from the US, TIL about Nancy Grace. Holy shit…

Can confirm as fellow Dutch. Nintendo cartridges were very expensive.

Chicory salad with tomato, egg and home made mayo. Apart from salt and pepper those are the only ingredients.

Bullet train to the brain

Tarmac can be really really hot.

Yes and they are always broken. I can never contact anyone.

Wag it, dog.

I put in 1300 hrs into fo4 just for the settlement building. With mods though.

“I heard people complaining about the bed situation…” NPC carrieing a bedroll on her back.

Even without sugar a lot of cereals are high in carbs from refined flower.

Yeah, they needed a shitload of money to pay Bobby Kotick apparently.

It’s just depressingly vulgar.

Sperm whales rattle off pulses of clicks while swimming together, raising the possibility that they’re communicating in a complex language.

Ever since the discovery of whale songs almost 60 years ago, scientists have been trying to decipher their lyrics. Are the animals producing complex messages akin to human language? Or sharing simpler pieces of information, like dancing bees do? Or are they communicating something else we don’t yet understand?

In 2020, a team of marine biologists and computer scientists joined forces to analyze the click-clacking songs of sperm whales, the gray, block-shaped leviathans that swim in most of the world’s oceans. On Tuesday, the scientists reported that the whales use a much richer set of sounds than previously known, which they called a “sperm whale phonetic alphabet.”

People have a pho-ne-tic alphabet too, which we use to produce a practically infinite supply of words. But Shane Gero, a marine biologist at Carleton University in Ottawa and an author of the study, said it’s unclear whether sperm whales similarly turn their phonetic sounds into a language.

“The fundamental similarities that we do find are really fascinating,” Dr. Gero said. “It’s totally changed the way we have to do work going forward.”

Since 2005, Dr. Gero and his colleagues have followed a clan of 400 sperm whales around Dominica, an island nation in the eastern Caribbean, eavesdropping on the whales with u

“sleeping”…they need rehab

Why not just cut a piece off an empty plastic dishwashing liquid bottle?

I miss the Amiga 500 in that list. ;)

In the UK there is the “Too good to go” app.

I save a lot of money on groceries this way and provide others as well. You pay a third of the original price.

I am Dutch and endorse this above statement. Also Kelvin MacKenzie…what a piece of shit he is, scum of the earth.

All I did wrong there was tell the truth. There was a surge of Liverpool fans who had been drinking and that is what caused the disaster. The only thing different we did was put it under the headline “The Truth”. I went on The World at One the next day and apologised. I only did that because Rupert Murdoch told me to. I wasn’t sorry then and I’m not sorry now because we told the truth.

336 apparently, I did not realize I blocked that many.
