4·28 days agoThey let you dump the water out, keep the bottle, and refill it at the bottle filling stations once you’re inside.
You’re not allowed to bring nail trimmers? I did…
Yeah, me neither. The place looks like it might have been cool when I was a kid, though.
It got reuploaded here, didn’t it?
Human reaction time is ~0.25 seconds.
At 20 mph, you’re going ~29 ft per second, so you go ~7.3 ft before you can react.
At 25 mph, that’s ~37 ft per second, so ~9.2 ft before you can react.The internet says a good car can break at about 15 f/s^2.
At 29 f/s, that comes out to a stopping distance of ~28 ft.
At 37 f/s, that’s ~46 ft.So Anne, who’s annoying for some reason, needs a total of ~35 ft to stop just before hitting the child.
Norman needs ~9 ft to start decelerating, so by the time he reaches the 35 ft mark (after ~26 ft of hitting the brakes,) it’s been a total of ~0.98 seconds, and he is going ~26 f/s, which is ~18 miles per hour.
I guess most of the size of a USB drive is just handle, isn’t it? Especially those models where you can retract the plug like that.
Yes. I believe this is what the SCP committee would call a memetic hazard.
I can grow a decent amount of facial hair. Unforturnately, it’s just curly enough to look scraggly, but not curly enough to pack in nicely on itself. But it’s red hair in contrast to my normal dark brown hair, and I don’t want to waste it.
Don’t worry, Mr. Mofu, I’ve got this argument covered for you. Ahem…

28·1 month agoMy expectation was that one might rotate an equine on an axis other than yaw.
Which also requires effort.
2·2 months agoYeah, I know. But “what does greek mythology say about using windows” would have been less funny.
If by that you mean connected my computer account to a Microsoft account, nope, I did no such thing.
That’s weird. I don’t get the prompt at all, but I do have a button in the lower left corner that says “Sign In.” Maybe it’s because I’m on Windows 11?
I don’t know who writes it, and I wouldn’t exactly call it a masterpiece (though to be fair, I am reading translations,) but it is a fun premise. I started reading it because it’s one of the few sources of official Hatsune Miku lore (though ultimately everything is canon,) but the stories focus more on the human characters, with the vocaloids mostly just being there to support. Still, the stories can be compelling.
At this point, half the reason I’m still reading is for the human characters, and the other half is to find details on the premise, such as how it works with thermodynamics, whether the cafe world has an economy, how biological the vocaloids are (do they need to eat?), and how long it’s going to be before anyone finds out that their bestie/sibling/trainer/etc has their own virtual world too (they don’t do a great job of keeping it secret, but they also don’t do a great job of investigating.)
Context made me think it was going to be a pelican trying to eat a baby. But no, that was a fun watch.
As for dealing with other people, it’s subjective. If they’re not satisfied with your answer, it’s an excuse to them.
To be a bit more specific, I’d say there are two factors at play, which are of course hard for the other person to judge, especially if they’re a manager not involved in the task itself:
Of course, it also depends on the priority level of the task. If your sibling asks for a glass of water and you get them a mug because there are no glasses in the cabinet, those stakes are low enough that it’s a valid reason even though you could have checked the dishwasher or washed a glass yourself.
