I wanted to refill my small gas torch, but the grocery store didn't have refill gas bottles.
..so I bought a bunch of cheap lighters with big tanks, and connected those to my empty gas refill bottle to drain them into it, and then used that to refill my jet torch :blobcatgooglyfingerguns:
.. anyone some literally unused but inexplicably empty lighters? maybe I'll use the piezo elements for a project or something, it feels like such a waste to throw them out 😅
dear dutch farmers: government regulations around nitrous oxides may be a pain, but realize that the south netherlands is currently MORE POLLUTED THAN FRICKIN NEW YORK, we are one of the most NO2 polluted areas in the entire fricking world, up par with South Africa, and I promise you it's NOT just the cars doing this
@VickForcella Farms definitely emit NO2/NO3 (especially with nitrogen based fertilizers), N2O, and NH2. Industry also emits specifically a bunch of NO2 which is why you see the german Ruhr area light up and Amsterdam/Rotterdam, but the southern parts of the country and towards belgium is actually primarily farmlands and I refuse to believe that it's all tractor exhaust ^^;
@RedstoneLP2 in a game or other software? maybe. in real life? it's a distinct lack of photons so arguably it's even less an object than the light that was cast by the sun or some other object..
..it could be considered a scientific object (It can be studied and measured, and its properties can be described scientifically),
artistic object,
Phenomenological object (It has a shape, size, and position in space, making it seem like an object)
and dependent object though I suppose?
@RedstoneLP2 as far as I can tell, in n-dimensional geometry, shadows are used to convey projections from higher dimensions to lower dimensions, e.g from 3d to 2d, or from n-dimensional to n(-1)-dimensional
@RedstoneLP2 Hmm, I guess yes in the mathematical sense, but not in the real-world sense?
You can reason about a slice of an object cast down into a lower-dimensional space as if it's a separate object, but it's really just a limited perspective on an object with more dimensions. I suppose you could compare it to certain types of engineering and science, there are cases where you might exclude certain dimensions from your analysis, focusing only on the dimensions relevant to your measurements
@lowqualityfacts I mean, you could only really find the big people that registered themselves in the indexer/crawler, there wasn't much internet to begin with so everything was much more basic and finding things was hardly a challenge compared to nowadays. Also I think they actually removed the AI overviews thing again because of the backlash :P
@njion this, so much, holy crap, my neighbors give me so much shit for it but I legit cannot stand the green asphalt everyone's having, hell the direct neighbors literally put FAKE GRASS down and I'm like 😭😭😭😭😭 YOU KNOW THERE AREN'T ENOUGH INSECTS TO ACTUALLY POLLINATE EVERYTHING AS IT IS RIGHT asdfasdfjhadkslga society could you just fix this one thing I don't ask for much but this utter lack of good taste and ecological understanding is one thing I absolutely need to see fixed :distraught:
huff. worked all weekend, it was busy but I actually managed to work down the queue quite a bit for next week, however I bruised my left hand pretty badly and can barely use it right now, and I was coughing all night last night again so i might be sick again, I only have 2 days of work before my vacation but i don't want to call in sick again because i want to finish up a lot of things before the vacation and i've been sick a lot this year already. meh, feeling terrible ;/
so I did the most logical thing and.. moved my days off from wed/thursday to next week so I can work 7 days in a row and finish up things
also my left thumb/wrist is slowly turning blue so I think that it's bruised pretty badly, though for now it at least works and I can at least type, and hey I've been coughing less and literally everyone else at the office is coughing too so it's probably just expected bodily behavior it seems
Is it a good idea to add an egg to instant ramen and just mix it in so that it gets scrambled with the noodles? I've never done it but it feels like it could be good..
@njion yea that's actually something many people do, just make sure it gets hot enough that bacteria get killed, but even if it's still a bit soft that's fine.
I cracked an egg into instant ramen and then added hot water many times, never gotten sick from it before, but yea salmonella is good to keep in mind with raw egg of course :)
@anthropy Should Amsterdam become a rebirthing of learning for Islam? Should the inhabitants be dealt with under sharia law proper and disposed of due to them being drugsverslaafde westerse gedegenereerde?
@VonKarth I was going to respond on that stroopwafel thing after ~30 minutes to see what you'd do, but obviously you'd do this, so I think I'll just mute you for a few days instead. Do you really wonder why people presume bad things about the things you say? :/
