USA is one of the few barbaric countries left. Bad public education, too many police officers with near to no training, high poverty. This is how you increase crime.

Windows key + type to open whichever app i need to open that's not already pinned to my taskbar.

Shift + win + s to take a screenshot.

I'd use linux in a heartbeat if it was supported by the tools I use for work.

This movie is a masterpiece. I've seen it more times than I'd like to admit.

Lucky you. My dad died from cancer when I was 14. That was rough.

Recently my mom died at 70 years old. The last time I saw my mom alive was at her sister funeral a month before. Three months later, her last remaining sister died. Same year my brother in law also died. 2022 was so far the worst year of my life. Covid was not the reason for any of the deaths.

But hey, no matter how bad things might be, they can always get worse.

Completely unrelated, in Norway we call them "crow balls" (kråkeboller)

I've actually done this successfully. TSA agent knocked on it, and said no problem.

If i somehow would be stopped, I'd love to argue what is liquid or not, and what could be liquid if it's just hot enough.

I love Venn diagrams, because venn means friend in my language

It amazes me that one of the largest countries in the world, with the most diverse demographics, can only chose between two candidates. This is not democracy. It's a shit show that has been going on for far too long.

My wife started a new job a few years ago, and during training she was shown how to create invoices.

  1. Open the excel template
  2. Fill inn the items, and the prices
  3. Sum all posts USING THE DESKTOP CALCULATOR ...

She was completely dumbfounded.

Considering that a 12V battery has an internal resistance of 20 milliohms, the potential current through this thing would be approximately 600A.

It might be too hot to handle (pun intended)

I'm not American, but I've lived a few years in the US. I find it very interesting that the US invented the electric infrastructure that we use today, but they really screwed up a few things. Firstly, the connectors are far too unsafe. They are flimsy and have no protection from electrocution. Secondly, by using 120V as the main voltage, you need more current to do the same amount of work as a 240V system. Thay means thicker wires, more stress on the plugs, and greater fire hazards.

Shuko plugs FTW
