Isn't it a bit difficult to get the glass full of beer out of the handle without making a mess?

For a "mother proof" / "noob" system, I'd recommend: 1. Install Ubuntu 2. Select closed source Nvidia driver during install 3. Done I don't recall having to mess with secure boot -- is that some dual boot

Yeah. Sometimes I've wanted to check out a new film on Netflix. I watch the tiny trailer that runs in the app, while I figure out whether it is worth my time. Trailer ends, and I know all I need to know about the film. The plot is know

That doesn't sound right. If that were the case, why would people still be building biofuel factories, e.g. in Sweden?

I was very young when I first saw the Commodore C64 maze generation trick using forward slash and backward slash. The characters are randomly selected and just printed one after another, the result is a maze-like pattern. Such a maze is pro

Based on media reports, Telegram has been continually used by a hostile autocratic government to recruit, organize and direct various gray-zone attacks against Europe, on European soil. Now it sounds like Europe finally put the foot down. A

It's an extremely captivating game with an unparalleled atmosphere. Before I started playing the game, I saw in passing an in-game video of a well-stocked gas station. Lights were lit and shelves were stocked. It was made like an in-ga

Interesting! The recycling containers here have separate containers for clear glass and coloured glass and I've always thought glass is glass. Now I checked in detail what is accepted, and sure enough, drinking glasses and mirrors are

As I've understood it, not having a pulse creates all kinds of problems, blood clots and whatnot. It's simply not good for the blood, nor the blood flow. The body isn't made for it. Pulsatile flow doesn't have such issue

Mastodon - mixed feelings. In my experience, Mastodon is nice until you want to partake in discussions. To do so, you need an account. With an account you can engage in civilized discussions. Some people don't agree with you, and you d

At least Sulapac sells biodegradeable pellet etc. materials which can be used by existing machinery for PS, ABS, PC and PP plastics. Probably there are other ones, too. In Sweden, the take-away food I tend to buy is always packed in a cardb

Still, why plastic nowadays? Wood and other biodegradeable materials are available. Plenty of products already on the market, not just for cutlery but things like product packaging, too. Companies exist all over the planet, like BioPak from

For the data, do you know meteostat.net? They get input from e.g. NOAA (US), DWD (DE), YR (NO) and so on. I'm not affiliated, just needed some historical data and (finally!) discovered them.

No, it's a good book. They launch 50 land-based ICBMs because: 1. They expect the attack to continue. 2. The ICBM silos are in static locations. 3. Not using the ICBMs in time removes the possibility to use them at all, because the ene
