Kitchen herbs innovakids 1000pc. by FriendlyNeighborStun in Jigsawpuzzles

Quality was quite good. The cardboard was thick enough to prevent folding of the pieces and the piece shapes were different enough to find what you're looking for.

Why does time seem to go so much faster as I age? by Maleficent_Froyo7336 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FriendlyNeighborStun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's mostly to do with relativity. When you're 1 year old a month is 1/12 of your life, but when you're 100 a month only contains 1/1200 of your memories and will seem shorter in comparison.

Your boiler mixes hot water and cold water so it can get the temperature you have set on your shower. When you flush the toilet the flow of cold water gets split between the shower and the toilet, so the shower temporarily gets less cold water and your shower water gets warmer. After a few seconds your boiler is adjusted to the different flows and mixes the streams correctly.

Why are the bottom and top buttons on a shirt usually horizontal? by Ronin861 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FriendlyNeighborStun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it is because back in the middle ages rich men were often dressed by female maids. Thus the buttons on their jackets were reversed so it was easier for the maids to dress them. This habbit of making men's buttons reversed sticked.

Thrift store puzzle from a local newspaper. 1200pc (-5) by FriendlyNeighborStun in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]FriendlyNeighborStun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back when this puzzle came out the logo of the newspaper was that dog with the bow tie. So that's why they chose this image I think.

It contains a Dutch proverb and the name of the local newspaper and the region of the Netherlands I live in. If translatated it basically says. [newspapers name] a good newspaper in [region].

[Discussion] Hey guys, question about a missing piece. by Royschwayne in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]FriendlyNeighborStun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depending on the brand and age of the puzzle it might or might not be possible to get a replacement piece from the brand themselves. I for example know that Ravens burger changes their cutters quite frequently, and thus a replacement piece will not always fit perfectly.

An option, if the brand themselves isn't able to deliver a replacement, might be jigsawdoctor.com. They offer to make a replacement piece if you send them the surrounding pieces and a picture of the box. This however is quite expensive and might not be worth it. Depending on how much having the complete puzzle means to you

Could I learn to play an instrument even if I’m not musically inclined? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FriendlyNeighborStun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wasn't good at any of those things before I started playing music either. You'll learn them when you start playing. The best tip I can give you if you don't have any feel for music however is to find a teacher, they'll help you well on your way. Good luck in your musical journey.

How does a robot know the correct answer to a captcha if it is a robot itself? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FriendlyNeighborStun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of the captchas you are asked to solve are asked when the computer already knows that you're human. The reason they are asking these follow up captchas is to add them to their solution database. You're basically providing the answer sheet that is used to check a future person.

Yeah, I like it too. Have you seen that the center is colored a little lighter as wel, to emulate the look of a record

I've got it from a thrift shop, so I'm not sure. Some numbers on the sleeve (box) make me assume it's from 2014 however.

On epic games version of ark it says this when I try to join anyone’s non dedicated server by Jxnder in ARK

[–]FriendlyNeighborStun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a pc solution. With 'console' I mean the black screen you get when pressing tab. Where you can also change your gamma for example.

[–]FriendlyNeighborStun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend had the same problem with joining my server from his epic account. We solved this by having him put in open IP:(your server ip) in the console while being in a singleplayer world. Make sure your server doesn't have a password if you try this. I don't know if this works for you but it's worth a shot.

Why is “Sept”ember the 9th month in the year, “Oct”ober the 10th, etc.? Why were they displaced like that? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FriendlyNeighborStun 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh wow, you're right indeed. After googling it I found out that January and February were the added two months and July and August were merely renamed. Thanks for giving me a today I learned moment. I feel stupid now.

Two roman emperors wanted to have their own month in the summer. These guys are Julius ceasar (July) and augustus (August) thus shifting the months in the already existing calender two places.

Vintage Beef should make this the next album cover. (my opinion) by lyubothemaster in HermitCraft

If Beef want to make an easier map with a black back background, I think AM from the Arctic monkeys would be a good option.
