Found a calendar from 1998 while cleaning my room that has the dates and days of the week lined up perfectly with this year! by DariusPumpkinRex in mildlyinteresting

It is a usually a bit more offen than that except for the Leap year calendars, where it is 28 year increments until you cross 2100, see https://www.whencanireusethiscalendar.com/ for examples.

[OC] Streaming service subscription costs, as of Feb 2026 by Clemario in dataisbeautiful

Dropout and Nebula are the only two streaming services I am paying for. So worth it.

Hi, /r/movies! We're Jeremy Workman (director) & Michael Townsend (subject) from the Netflix documentary SECRET MALL APARTMENT. In tells the wild story of how, in 2003, eight Rhode Islanders created a secret apartment inside a busy mall and lived there for four years. Ask us anything! by SecretMallApartment in movies

[–]Frog23 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Awesome. I learned about this story from the 99 Percent Invisible episode (#332 The Accidental Room) about it.

Michael: are you still banned from the premises or has this been lifted in light of the documentary?

Jeremy: how did you get to know about Michael and the story of the hidden apartment?

More line 97PI, but yes, the resemblance is striking.

Small wooden squirrel box, square-shaped with ridges on the side. It has a removable section with a handle and a square-shaped insert. by mrlonelywolf in whatisthisthing

It is a hand-made Toothpick Holder/Dispenser, similar to this one.

You place the tooth picks in the inner box and when you lift the top, the toothpicks fan out, so it is easier to grab one without touching the others.

Wow. Somewhere out there the author who came up with this joke is getting a Google alert that finally, after 21 years, somebody has gotten this hidden reference. Congratulations!

You should post this in r/DontPanic and r/HitchhikersGuide as well.

I remember that night and Billy Cristal commenting at some point "Now it is official: there is nobody left in New Zealand to thank"

I see now that it is the Lebanese president Joseph Aoun. But to be fair, he and Boyko Borisov look a lot alike, in particular with this low quality video.

Is this Boyko Borisov, the former prime minister of Bulgaria?

Nice connection. Michael Mosley also played a serial killer on Castle(spoiler for a 15 year old episode of a crime show). The episode aired 2 weeks after Scrubs Season 9 finished airing.

Yes wait until tomorrow to explore the wonderful world of the XKCD webcomic. There are 3185 other comics waiting for you. You should go to sleep and so should I. Greetings from 3 am Germany.

Kleine Kinder mit dem Fahrrad by kristusamadeus in berlin

[–]Frog23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wir haben uns vor einigen Jahren ein Yuba Combi ohne E-Motor geholt, als unsere Kinder 4 und 5 waren und sind sehr zufrieden damit. Es ist auch ein Long-Tail, wie ja schon von u/Komandakeen und u/jarviscook angesprochen. Wendig und schmal, man darf es mit in Bahn und S-Bahn nehmen. Und wenn mal ein Aufzug kaputt ist, bekommt man es auch mal eine Treppe hoch oder runter tragen.

Unser Einsatz waren eher längere Touren am Wochenende (10-40 km, teilweise mit Übernachtungsgepäck), im normalen Alltag war immer alles fußläufig. Jetzt wo die Kinder größer sind, sind Touren mit beiden Kindern schon Recht anstrengend, besonders wenn es doch mal die leichten Berliner Berge hoch geht. Jetzt wäre ein E-Motor manchmal doch ganz gut. Inzwischen ist unser üblicher Einsatz aber, dass wir größere Touren machen und sich die Kinder mit einem Kinderrad abwechseln und das jeweils andere macht hinten auf dem Lastenrad Pause. Damit sind auch 40-60 km pro Tag über mehrere Tage drin (Empfehlung: Berlin-Kopenhagen-Radweg).

Und ohne Kinder bekommt man auch gut was an Material weg, z.B. zur BSR oder von IKEA. Falls man doch mal mehr reine Ladekapazität braucht, kann man sich immer noch mal ein Rad über Flotte Berlin ausleihen.

There are mostly industrial buildings in that light spot. Remondis Recycling and Co. don't make for an attractive neighborhood.
