A giraffe is a horse with a long neck.

A giraffe centaur is a centaur with a long neck.

QED

There are tons of tons, believe it or not.

There’s the short ton (2000lbs), long ton (2240 lbs), and tonne (1000kgs) which are all measure weight. However there’s also the shipping/freight/ocean ton which is a measure of volume (which is also different in the US and UK), and the register ton.

However I did make a mistake. The wikipedia page I was reading said the weight in t and long tons. I made the mistake of assuming they meant short tons - in reality when measuring displacement for a ship, tonnes are used (which is pretty sensible, considering you’re displacing water and a liter of water to a kilogram of water have a pretty easy conversion formula formula…)

You think that’s crazy? The ship that blocked the Suez Canal, the Ever Given, has a ship displacement (how much water is displaced when it sits in the ocean) of 265,000 Tons.

That’s 240 million kilograms.

And that shit just floats on fucking water maaaaan…

Electing Trump (Nov 2016) the first time was the American equivalent of Brexit (June 2016).

Didn’t think I’d ever see Waleska on Lemmy… but, yeah. This is just the story all over North Georgia right? No one wanted to live in the mountains until all of the sudden you could work from anywhere. Now everyone earning city and suburb pay is happy to live an hour farther out than they were before.

Of course not. It’s tungsten. Not steel.

And spicy chili peppers being associated with Chinese, Thai, or Indian food

And potatoes being associated with Ireland… or Russia…

We just say bingo…

“in space no one can hear you scream”

Boeing satellites: “AHHHHHH!!!”

Supposedly one of the main draws for fahrenheit is that common cold temperatures aren’t negative, so this doesn’t address that part.

Static IP on the windows machine in a jail’d subnet, if you still want to be able to access it from the LAN but don’t want it to have internet access.

If you’re happy with it not having any kind of network access (I’m not sure if when you say ‘locally’ you mean just physically, or it needs LAN as well), just disable the network adapter in windows.

“bloody” as in bloody idiot, or “bloody” as in black pudding?

“would you like some fresh shark?”

“Hell no bury that sum bitch for one to three months then hang it up for a few more then get back to me”

I remember going over to a kid’s house that lived up the street from my cousin. He had Pilotwings on Super Nintendo like right after it released. And he had a big screen TV!

My god man, you would not believe how picture perfect those pixels the size of a finger tip were.

Danish, not Dutch.

I’ve spoken to enough Dutch people to know that no matter how hard you try, nothing makes sense in Dutch.

We’re you at a strip club?

But ‘sands’ gets used as well, like when talking about collective different type of sands. So there would be nothing wrong with saying “I have different color LEGOs” if your intention is as “green LEGO and yellow LEGO”… At least that’s how I read it, right?

It’s not there as some commentary by Christopher Nolan that the moon landings didn’t happen. It’s there to show that schools are willing to teach a lie as long as it serves the narrative of “past oppulence is what destroyed our world, so get out there and be a farmer!”

This thread is about the steam deck. It is a purpose built piece of hardware that runs its software in containers.

It can run regular desktop software, but it is absolutely not a replacement for “a general purpose system”.
