As far as I know it’s dangerous play, because you’d be making it impossible for anyone to challenge the ball without things getting dangerous. You’re supposed to defend the ball by using your athleticism to fend off your opponents, not by using medieval battlefield tactics to force a siege.

Ultrasonic vibrations have been successfully used to make cutting tools more effective for a long time. It doesn’t make the cutting edge sharper or amplify the force, it just moves it back and forth slightly, in microscopic imitations of a cutting motion. That does work. Though at the end of the day it won’t magically make a dull knife sharp.

Ultrasonic vibrations have also been successfully used to get shit off of surfaces for a long time too. It is a common and effective method. Though it usually involves a bit more than just shaking the thing, but still…

Theoretically this knife could very well do both of those things. Probably not well enough to be worth 425 dollars, but probably entire useless either.

Many years ago I was out in the woods camping with friends. One night we got woken up by terrified screams from the other tent. We threw ourselves out to see wtf was happening. Turns out there was a big ass centipede in the tent with the guys, and they were just tumbling over each other like panicking clothes in washing machine, trying to smack the centipede with whatever they could get their hands on. It was funny to watch the tent rock back and forth with screams coming from the inside.

Some years before that, I was out at sea, snorkeling with a friend. I saw a gorgeous, huge, sea urchin shell at the bottom, so I dived down to grab it. A fucking centipede launched itself out of the sea urchin shell and swam past my head and up to the surface. That day I learned some centipedes live in the sea. That was not funny. That was absolutely terrifying. I did scream like a little bitch.

Club penguin of course

And a good day to youse.

Are we still going to be allowed to moon people once this project is complete? I need to know because that might require me to make changes to my daily routine.

The reason Smart Person needed to partner up with Complete Dipshit is because he needed Complete Dipshit’s underground connections to 1) acquire some controlled substances using less than legal methods, and 2) to sell what he’s cooked up. Jesse wasn’t there to help with manufacturing, he was there to help with logistics. Walter couldn’t have done those on his own because not even the best chemistry departments at the bestest universities teach you how to steal precursor drugs or cold call psychotic drug lords for exciting new business opportunities.

Tbh there aren’t many modern cars that look like they will last 35 years, and unfortunately that includes the Japanese.

It is an evolution of the old “asdasdasd”, which popped into existence because it’s easier to type into game chat without lifting your left hand off the WASD keys.

I once heard a young man laugh asdasdasd out loud. As in he actually made the sound “asdasdasd” when laughing instead of the more natural haha sound. Bizarre experience it was.

On our German tests back in hs, there was a vocab section where we’d use words in sentences. I didn’t know one of the words in one of the tests, so I wrote “ich weiß nicht was <word> bedeutet”, which means “I don’t know what <word> means”. Our teacher accepted that one with a laugh, but said it was a one time thing and it would not be allowed again. People still tried their luck with similar tricks after that, but got nothing.

Me, I was just surprised she’d never seen that in her career before. I wasn’t expecting to get any points for that. Thought she for sure would have had other smartass students like me.

Can’t say I ever made a dramatic entrance into a hospital, but I did once jump into a cab and said “follow that car”. Let me tell you man, it felt great. Was amazing. The other car was a friend’s and we were going somewhere together as a large group, but still. I recommend everyone at least do that once in their lives. Such a thrill. 10/10.

Not here, but this is a screenshot from a video, likely from a platform where there is something to gain.

I think I see what she’s trying to say. Something along the lines of “normally legal things can become illegal if it can be proven that you’re doing them with criminal intent”. Like you’re buying a car for example, which would be legal. But if someone can prove that you’re buying that car with the explicit purpose of using it to run someone over in a preplanned assault, then it can be treated as illegal. Which might have been too much for the translator to reduce into a short and accurate one liner.

Maybe she’s just an idiot though, who knows. I don’t even know if that’s how the law works over there.

See, you highlighted why the German cuisine is not that great. There’s simply not much variety in what you just listed. The German cuisine is kinda shallow, focusing mostly around the same stuff. If you’re not that into cheese or meat, then that’s 75% of the German cuisine eliminated.

One thing “food countries” have in common is that their cuisines have variety. Go to Spain or Turkey or China, and you’ll be drowning in mouth watering options no matter what kind of food you like. Hard to say the same for countries like Germany or the NL or Denmark or whatever. Yeah they can be very good at what they do, but they just don’t do a whole lot.

I’m sure there have been people who sold some catalytic converters that fell of a truck somewhere to buy RAM.

Very different vegetables though. It’d be like comparing wine and beer.

I mean I am pretty happy with my nothing phone. It came with a pretty minimal stock android that runs on hardware that’s quite good for what I paid. Despite the shitty name that people have indeed made fun of, the phone’s been pretty good so far.

3 zone a/c is also pretty nice. No more “it’s too <exact opposite of what the driver is feeling>” whining from the back.
