“Up to” in terms of anything. Up to inherently also contains zero.

I feel exactly the same way about “a fraction of” especially when it’s “a fraction of the price”, because 99/100 is a fraction, as is 100/100.

Well below freezing, best I can tell. That was the only time I’ve ever seen anything like that. But it was way back when I was living in a shitty apartment (14 years ago) with whatever shitty appliances they had. Really hard to say.

I bit bread like this once and I can still vividly taste it.

I’ve accidentally eaten various kinds of mold several dozen times in my life, and in some cases I could barely tell. Slightly dirt flavor. That’s the dangerous mold.

I was also in my 30s when I found out some people don’t know what mildew smells like. They know the sour smell in clothes, but don’t realize it’s mildew. My partner was one such person, and they -still- don’t care but that smell drives me bonkers.

Unrelated because I didn’t eat them, but it reminded me of the time I made cookies (specifically Russian tea cookies, aka snowballs) and put them directly in the freezer without letting them dry out, and it was humid enough in the container that months later when I went to eat one, they had tiny adorable mushrooms on them.

Usually both, in my experience.

You’ll have fans for plants that firm up stems and stuff, in addition to helping with transpiration.

Then you’ll have fans or passive vents near the highest point that move air outside, usually for the sake of venting excess heat and humidity. If you live somewhere cold, these probably stay closed through colder times and are active/open only during the height of summer (these are often the passive vents). If you live somewhere warm, it’ll probably always be active fan-driven, and usually running.

A lot of people have their ventilation system hooked to climate control sensors, so it only engages when it crosses a certain threshold.

That tortoise is like “omg! Mom look! I told you I’d fly someday! Look how fast I am!”

It’s true. That media is called “the media”.

The whole machine is designed to influence low information investments, it’s just that that doesn’t stop at stocks.

I was honestly ready to whine about the timing and this not making sense… but no, turns out my timeline, despite being based on books that were supposed to be well-researched, was way off. And indeed the first chatter about mobile phones was around 1908. Til.

Have some Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_mobile_phones

The floor definitely gives you a new perspective.

To be clear, those are usually for any handicap, as they are outfitted with wheelchair access and usually have extra adults riding along to help.

They are (or at least were in my area at that time) much more comfortable, similar to public transit busses. I got to ride along with a friend with a muscular problem on one a few times in the late 90s early noughties and it was lux.

That article has a lot of “alleged” for something there’s a video of…

I got weird rotary phone, GameCube, then that funeral video. I sort of thought this was some millennial meme I’m too out of the loop to understand. Lemmy is full of those.

If they were all the same size, perhaps amputee?

Or maybe a really specific fetish.

Maybe both.

Quite possibly a question best left unanswered, at least until you no longer live there

No, I don’t. I mean a burrito.

Lego already makes shit all over the world. Look at the back of one of the big kits and there’s a wildly long list of countries of manufacture.

They probably even make some parts here in the US.

The problem is they have tons of parts, and only one or two factories making any given part (other than really common ones maybe). They would have to duplicate each individual mold to have wholly state-side supply. That’s where it becomes impractical.

They would probably have to try to figure out what they were paying for each part from a different country of manufacture, and that would also be a nightmare.

Oh fuck that would suck -hard-.

There’s a show called flash forward where that sort of happens. Not like entirely the same for reasons, but they do black out and things do happen in that time.

Good show though imho

I really want the context. Tho the really old jokes I’ve read have all pretty well sucked according to my present tastes, so…

Question: are you thinking the kind of burrito served on a plate with sauce over the top and usually rice and beans on the side, or the kind that comes wrapped in foil or plastic that might go through a microwave but which everyone would think you are low-key insane for eating with utensils?

That sounds legit. Thanks for the info.

Trying to sort out of this is a xena meme or a marvel meme…

I’m sort of guessing marvel? But it looks cheesy like xena… maybe it’s neither?
