Heh. When my daughter was small, she could say spaghetti, but also added the initial “s” to baguette, making it a “spaguette” .

We’re German, by the way, so we frequently eat both.

Plugs are for beginners. I once managd to step on a Motorola 68020 processor which embedded its pins intomy foot and drew blood.

And as every child here knows, you can just plug it into a pig nose for mobile power. No need for noisy generators, just bring your pig.

Not specifically for a rock, but that’s “roughly” how physical modeling synthesiers work for instruments.

Also there’s a youtube channel of a guy who builds an engine simulator to reproduce the sounds of 4-stroke and 2-stroke engines by applying fluid dynamic simulation of the gas flows in an engine.

It COULD conceivably be built for rock dropping as well, but I assume that’s not a thing people have yet put effort in.

I had to google, maybe some else wants to know: Galileo units is a (non-SI) measure of acceleration.

1 gal = 1 cm/s^2

100 gal = 1 m/s^2

So the 500-something gal from the article is roughly around half the acceleration of gravity we normally feel.

Regarding cooking I just bought my first decent knife (from Fein in Solingen, which is a traditional knife-making company)

Not the absolute high end, but just one step better as most of the normal industrial stuff - ai couldn’t be happier.

There’s mashups of both.

I know from own experience that a short tongue tie makes it harder to become a cunning linguist.

My tongue tie scrapes on the lower teeth when sticking my tongue out. (I think my situation is a lot better than yours) Still, it might be more comfortable to have a doctor make a small incision instead of scraping and tearing it when things get steamy.

In the 80s there was a way to cheat phone booths in Germany: With a small tool that had an adjustment screw you could position the hook switch to an exact position where the phone booth had already connected the line but did not yet power up the rest of the machinery (including coin counters)

You could then call arbitrary nunbers by pulse dialing using the hook switch (the rotary dial was still powered down)

Basically a EU pulse dial version of phreaking.

My father, who died this year, used this a lot too make “free” calls in the 80s.

I loved season 1, especially for the 80s look in Germany which I remember from my childhood (Gen X)

Dark lost me with season 2

I have a spray bottle with an isopropanol water mixture (around 10% isopropanol) and I just give my glasses a good spray and then wipe them with a clean microfiber kitchen cloth.

(I wash these cloths with just detergent powder, no softener or other additives, so they are grease-free out of the washer)

Is this chatGPT generated?

Hektoliter is common in Germany for measuring quantities of beer (not a single serving, of course, but when buying beer for some kind of venue or measuring the output of a brewery)

Mitefosin tablets I got for Leishmaniosis, two packages for a bit over 5000 Eur for both . Thank god for health insurance.

Cutaneous Leishmaniosis at two places, one being.my face over the upper lip. I was happy.I got treatment instead of bad scars.

Username checks out.

(spitz means - beyond other things - “horny” in German)

Ah ok - if the gas station doesn’t have such a machine that’s pretty useful. My next gas station has such a compressor, I enter the pressure and it does everything automatically once the hose is connected.

Anyways, keeping your tires at correct pressure probably pays for such a pump in a short time.

What’s the use case for these? Not needing to fill up tires at the gas station?

I only drink carbonated water. Tbh when I’m home alone it is soooo satifying to burp after drinking it.

Regarding flat water - if I drink a lot of it quickly my stomach feels reaaaaly stange.

Oh and one more fun fact: The biggest water resources on the earth, the oceans, lakes, rivers, even the rain are not carbonated.

So technically the world is flat.

Come, join the adventure to Planet X!

I am sure people will follow and not call it Mars anymore.
