“Once the rockets are up, who cares where they come down. That’s not my department,” says Wernher von Braun.

Ah thanks, I always wondered why I can see some images but not others.

You’re quitting early. That’s not even half the fun of predecimal British currency. There is so much more:

Edit: Well, that didn’t work. Let me see, if I can fix it.

Edit2: or maybe it did? I can see the image in the browser, just not in the app. Here is the link, in case someone else can’t see it: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a4/British_predecimal_currency.svg

Oooh, I never noticed that difference, just remembered there being a timestamp. TIL, thanks.

Maybe it was shared through an app. If I share a YouTube video from NewPipe, by default it will add the time code to the URL.

I really made a fool of myself, haven’t I?

Well, for what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbours, and laugh at them in our turn?

I don’t think the ancient Greeks used Roman numerals. Though to be fair, I-III should be easy to understand anyway.

Can’t misrepresent women if you don’t represent them. Taps forehead.

The scary part is, that for them “everyone” is having fun. Because women are usually not included in their everyone.

I’d also like to point out that with an app, you don’t just hire a programmer, they make an app and done. You have to maintain it. (Although many companies with “smart” products with apps skip this part, so I’m sure it’s fine /s)

Serious question: Do people share their lemmy account with others irl?
Not even my closest friends and family know my username let alone random strangers. And I intend to keep it that way.

Everyone is saying undersalt things, but I’m assuming, that you don’t even have a clue whether a teaspoon of salt would be undersalting or oversalting. You should get someone to show you what a “normal” amount of salt is per person. It won’t be perfect but at least edible.

Migraines. At least it’s a good way to get away from the stressful situation, because I don’t have a choice unless I want to throw up and I will look so bad that people immediately believe me. So… thanks, migraines?

For what it’s worth, while there certainly are public bathrooms with stalls from floor to ceiling, the most common design does have gaps between the floor and the stall (at least here in Germany). Just not as big as the gaps in the US. You’d have to get uncomfortably close to the floor of a public bathroom to see anything. And no gaps between the door and the walls.

I also have very good color vision.

For me it heavily depends on the context. For example I have spent some time working out a color palette for my wardrobe, so now the colors I use there are heavily associated for me.

Without any context, it’s similar to your grouping, except for the second group: oranges go nearly all to the reds, yellows go to the greens, browns go to black and greys.

Are other people allowed to hear our song when we play it? If so, I choose Macarena and then sell my attendance at parties and weddings and so on.

… unless there are not enough teachers, or not enough public pools, or…

The indoor pool I learned swimming closed a decade ago and since then there is no public indoor pool in the city anymore.

I’m a bit sad Rhabarberbarbarabarbarbarenbartbarbierbierbarbärbel doesn’t make an appearance in this.

(Bärbel owns a bar where she sells a special beer to the barber who cuts the beards of the barbarians who like to eat rhubarb cake at Barbara’s (aka Rhubarb-Barbara) bar.)

My grandma’s recipe for Spätzle (egg-based noodles) is: “You start with the amount of eggs you need for the amount of people, add a bit of water, a pinch of salt and then flour until it has the right consistency.” Her recipe for pancakes is basically the same.

My grandma is very partial to the easily reproducable measures “until it has the right consistency” and “until it has the right colour”. As in “add water until it has the right consistency” or “add milk until it has the right colour”. Nearly her recipes use them.

Funnily enough the latter is also used by Aperol in their recipe for Aperol Spritz on their bottles. At least they provide a picture of what the “right colour” is supposed to be.
